- I don't necessarily care if this really fits for the zone or not, but I did try with gameplay, and it works.
The thing with Death Egg Zone's music (for me) is that they've got way too short of a loop to keep me going through the acts. It's great still, and I can at least bear the short loop, but this is more of a very, very minor nitpick if anything.
Directly inspired by Atomic Destroyer Act 2 from Sonic Triple Trouble 16-bit and Savaged Regime's Stereo Protect (from Pulseman) arrange, I decided to make this an EDM? rave tune? I haven't tackled this genre in ages please help me. Excuse the plagiarism if you think that's what it is, I'm very much aware that this is pretty derivative off other things. Even if nothing is original, that doesn't excuse anything that I did. I just wanted to write a little somethin'-somethin'. I used an older composition titled, "The Toilet Lock Is Stuck" and retooled it here, since I actually thought it'd be pretty sick to give it a sort-of-reboot.
Got exams cominng up next week, so this is going to be the final upload for a while. It lasts for approx. over a week, so I'll return to writing music once I'm done. Maybe I'm planning on continuing my Freedom Planet 2 playthrough? You'll know when I'm back, is what it is, lol

THE LOW PASS DECAY AT THE START
I would love to hear what it sounds like on a real Mega Drive, if I had one :(
hi redstone!
Its more like a bandpass increasing in bandwidth but i get what you mean!
IT IS A SICK INTRO
i think it's more of a high pass. because i hear the higher frequencies before the lower ones
this is so much more tense than the actual death egg, and its futuristic edm-ish nature fits the zone SO WELL, but still has that spark of hope that can be seen as overused but always work so well with final levels. and damn that atmosphere hits different
Yeah, it sounds a lot like a Sonic Forces track now (in a good way)
@@vividcolorandrichaudio6134 true
But it doesn't fit to s&k ost😌
@@RusskiyChel perhaps because it's not the s&k ost
@@hiddenboy007 u told this music works well with last levels.. That's why I replied that
john tay once again proving he’s the best person to ever touch a sound chip
this sounds more like if the death egg was just a typical level as opposed to a final zone but it’s a cool twist! would love to see an act 2
He is the Yuzo Koshiro of this time
Follinesque
And he delivered
What about savaged regime?

hey, after reading a few comments of yours and this description, i just wanted to let you know that people don't really intend to say you're plagiarizing anything when they point out similar melodies in songs. it's usually just fun to find songs that are similar to other songs you enjoy, and it's just the nature of songwriting within a genre (there aren't really an infinite amount of ways to make notes that also *sound good*). this song's great by the way!
Oh yeah I know all these things too well, just wanted to be as transparent as possible in case if some listeners were to think this way. I write/arrange music, people like it; it's just that simple. Borrowing melodies and throwing it all together to create something new is technically transformative, but at the same time I know that sometimes people think of what I do as "bad", or something I guess.
@@johntayjinf one thing to bear in mind: in many cases there’s nothing completely original in the world! Something always takes inspiration or ques from something else
@@lambdacore3246 Exactly. Too bad people doesn't understand and always shout plagiarism or be a "clone". Like it's sort illegal of be inspired on something that you like by heart. 😬
@@johntayjinf best arrangement
@@lambdacore3246 And in turn, those things that were created as a result of inspiration, also inspire others, to create their own things, influenced by what you did, which in turn, is influenced by something already existing but in your own way. I don't know, it's incredible, because perhaps originality is not "doing something", but "how to do" that something.
This has gotta be one of the best Sonic songs, unofficial or official, to ever graze this earth, I love this track way too much.
This is a really good one here. The insturments and the effects really give the Electronic and Mechanical vibe which fits Death Egg. For some reason i can't fit this (and most of your S&K Alt themes) into a Classic Sonic Game level. You have a different style and i like it.
Beautiful tone, has a really fitting introspective vibe for a final level
I'll never get tired of that Savaged Regime flavour and you nailed it!
Holy crap, it took me a second but _that's_ why I recognized that melody. I was trying to figure out if you'd used a pop song for the main lead, but then I read the description and was positively blown away
LET'S UNLOCK THAT TOILET SHALL WE???
I tried but the lock is stuck
context plz
@@TheFormalFools basically this song is based off an original song that john tay made called "the toilet lock is stuck"
@@sola_is_chillingI’m pretty sure doomsday zone was the song that was based off of that song
Imma join
As much of a banger of a house music track as that missile headed towards Sonic is in the thumbnail. That's gonna be a lot of Rings lost, but I could get lost listening to this track for hours. Great job, it certainly matches the tension and feel of the Death Egg perfectly. The nods to Atomic Destroyer in the composition style are excellent, and (considering your work on the fangame) an amazing way to tie it forwards to that game's events. 10/10, an S-Rank of a track by far!
The toilet lock in the Death Egg is stuck
W h a t.
I loved how your Arrangement of Flying Battery Turned out and I was following since, but this....this is my most favorite track of the project so far
X2
I was not expecting to open this up and for it to go THIS HARD, the intro is so beautiful and the rest of it has a sorta energy I tend to vibe with in music, basically this is good I like!
I feel very nostalgic listening to this as this sounds like something I have heard in the 2010's and closely familiar to MasterJace's FM arrangements.
You did an awesome job at this.
This feels a lot more eggsistential than the track composed for the original game. Love the sense of urgency!
If this were real, the fandom would've called this one song the greatest of all time.
huh its kinda rare for me to get to a video so soon after it released, i was thinking this was going to be a remix of the other alternate death egg theme but i was blown away by something brand new, great job dude
Reminds me of Aquatic Base. Probably just because they are both in the same key. Great take on the track!
The sequel we all needed to The Toilet Lock Is Stuck
Wow, this is probably one of the better-sounding AND fitting Alts so far! Good job!
This sounds really good I think it may fit death egg zone better than the original. However, the original gave off more EGGMAN vibes. This one sounds more futuristic. Which is great, but I do think the music should be more eggman fitting. Just so then it gives us the feeling that this is eggmans base. This is still an amazing piece. I love it a lot and it sounds very good.
This be quite nice - does mean that Woofle's LBZ alternate mixes would no longer connect but that's a natural consequence. Perhaps a remix of those themes could connect to this instead?
I have to congratulate the high fidelity sound you have managed to capture with these chips. I had to stop while I was listening to reconfirm that this was, in fact the song I’d put on. Very good, keep it up.
God this sounds like a credit scene for Metal Slug i love it so much!!
(Also hope your day is going well!)
Very cool and unique song. It has a certain determined tone to it that says "you're in the last level". I really like it.
The intro and the buildup after is just mmmmmmmmm so good. Overall it’s great! I really like this edm techno style of music and want to figure out how to do it kinda like this in the future
Ayo what the hell this is EPIC!
🌚
@@Funky-Fox1993 🌝
just found out about this now, this is so serene and beautiful, but also fits the grungy, mechanical feel of death egg zone. godlike work
This is one of the biggest bangers I’ve heard in a long time, that opening is auditory BLISS
Honestly, I like this more than the OG! Fits so well!
gives me 2000s flash games vibes i love it
WERE DEATH EDGING WITH THIS ONE 🔥
DUDE THIS IS ACTUALLY WAY BETTER THAN DEATH EGG ACT 1!! Normally the original acts music has no tune to its, it’s a kinda boring theme, but if it were this version, no fuckin way I’d be able to beat the zone, I’d be listening to music for the whole 10 minutes of the stage 💀💀💀
Nah man, fuck that. Being derivative isn't plagiarism, and being derivative isn't lack of creativity. This is a sick remix and composition all around. If anyone would try to accuse you of copying anything they'd be dead wrong.
Sorry for the frequent comments but I'm very impressed and rocking to your OST
Hey John, been seeing your work for a while now and I gotta say it's really great!
I'm curious about this S3&K Alt OST project you got going on tho, are you planning on only doing the second half of the soundtrack since the first half already exists? Or are you gonna tackle the entire OST?
just the second half
This one didn’t quite click at first, but after giving it some time I really enjoy it
Being creative is to put something through a new perspective. This is creative. I love it.
What an out of this world composition! 👌
It's so nostalgic!
this is definitely my favorite of the alternate tracks so far, i love the vibe so much
Ayo PSG drums! Interesting choice, oddly fitting the Death Egg.
And yeah, this sort of EDM mix really suits Death Egg's nature. It's a goddamn _space_ station, SEGA!
The “Go!” is so fitting here!
Wow, that hits different.
This is also going on my top 3 list. This one is amazing
I stumbled upon this with a meme in Twitter. These are FIRE!
It's beautiful. I prefer your version over the original. Thanks for sharing the VGM & FUR files too
CERTIFIED BANGER.
The beginning sounds like if you combine Sirius with FearOfDark! BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!
This sounds like it could fit in Sonic Forces as the best Classic Sonic stage song.
HOT DAMN THE CLUB IS ON FIRE..... IN SPAAAACCCCEEEE!
jesus this is amazing
This has more of a Pulseman feel to it, not that I am complaining in the slightest.
The toilet locks on the death egg are stuck.
best arrangement
Stereo Protect vibes.
* Reads description *
Ooohhhh.
These are all going in my music playlist! 🦊👍✨💯
oh hi
@@hiddenboy007 (⓿_⓿)
really really interesting. awesome, even.
3:09
i think the lead slowly fading back might be the hardest thing ever lol
Masterclass
holy fucking shit
not only it's amazing and maybe even better than the actual theme, but it avoids sounding like typical genesis/MD music in spite of using the genesis sound chip
i was like... what does that intro remind me of
oh my god. worlds hardest game?? lmao its like a mix of another medium and worlds hardest game theme
I love act 1's bass and percussion I can't wait for act 2's
This gives me FP1 Final Dreadnought vibes and i love it.
we need a sonic 3 air mod with all this remixes and remakes man they're just way too good
Sounds awesome!! Kind of reminds me of the messenger.
Everything I have to say about this cover has already been said, except for the fact that 2:20 reminds me of Zero Stage 2 from Mega Man X5.
This is way better than the original, good grief! Original Death Egg Zone, eat your heart out!
this track is great...
This isn't Sonic 3 anymore.
This isn't the Mega Drive anymore.
This is from another reality. I refuse to believe that this has anything to do with Classic Sonic the Hedgehog.
it kinda fits with the whole "entering a giant death star knockoff in the sky and being brought into space"
Fantastic! ❤❤❤❤❤
HOLY SHIT THIS FUCKING SLAPS GOOD JOB, JOHNNN‼️
awesome
Damn! I'd prefer this over the original any day.
Fucking awesome, dude. Genuinely, how did you gain such incredible skill?
very death egg
hi hyper
god damn!!! this is better than the original!!
This is the best death egg theme ever
and it's not even official
why are all of these thumbnails moments before sonic gets the shit beaten out of him
why not
understandable have a nice day
Nice Furnace remix of the song!😄🤩😎👌
Nice.
Also do you plan on making the act 2s for the other zones?
Prefer the original but this is catchy for a final act 1 stage
Sounds like it was inspired by casino park from sonic heroes.
Chaos Planet Zone
Act 1
Sounds like if Pulseman had a sequel.
I thought the same from the beginning, in fact the instrument used reminds me of "Stereo Project", a theme from stage 2, in India
@@dashie_dsh.4029 Ha that's my favorite soundtrack of pulseman and the fact my ancestors are Indian.
This version >> than the original
This is beautiful 2:07
2:20 2:47
Undertale Vibes :)
JT, I Have A Request For You, Could I Use The FBZ And DEZ Music From Your SK Alternate OST? I Will Give You Credit!
i really like this rendision of death egg, but the main part that i liked about the original was the bass.
If Death Egg was a zone in modern sonic, this would be it's theme (cd quality).
this is like the toilet lock is stuck
because the toilet lock IS stuck
john. how the FUCK are you so good at this.
fuckin sick
Couldn't you add Flying Battery's motif on one part?
They are cousins.
Could I by any chance use Your Songs in a Sonic Mania mod or in sonic 3 air.
The Toilet lock isn't stuck anymore 😢
Kinda reminds me tad bit of core from undertale
I like this music for certain. But I personally prefer the original Death Egg.
Still, it's quite good!
