Sonic the Hedgehog 'Lightning Star'
Wee, its punk! Something even my crazy sister could appreciate, not like all of this techno crap I listen to. And I must say this one is very nice. It is high energy head banging on the way in and Hawaiian skirt swinging mellow on the way out. Excellent mix Jaxx, well done. |

================================ Lightning Star (Sonic the Hedgehog) ================================ by JAXX. You may remember him from such remixes as Chrono Trigger's "No Time," and Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo's "The Bitch is Back." JAXX...damn man. unfuckinbelievable. I could NOT get this song out of my head all day today. In the song, from 0-0:26, my favorite part is definitely the drums. Then I go crazy for the lead guitar from 0:38-1:05 (particularly the squeals at 0:52 & 0:55). At 1:18 the song slides into a mandatory finger snap thingy-dealy. The transition is...I can't think of anything else that doesn't sound remotely corny. 10 slices JAXX. Unprecedented. Unbelievable. Unnotlistentoable. Folks, these opinions are just that. I ain't a remixer. I'm a listener. But if you've been a regular visitor to the message boards since July 10th of 2001, you already know that. Please, listen to this more than once before you make your own opinions. I didn't appreciate "Lightning Star" until I listened to it at least 3 or 4 times. Listen to it through decent speakers. And keep comin' back. Kudos to JAXX. Well done sir. Well done.

Wow, I really liked this one, it's really upbeat at first as the description says, but it has a very positive sound. I love it. :D

the unbiased reviewer give this selection a 9.5/10.
i loved the lightning star level in Sonic. so of course i remember the music. the orignal music was a slow swing beat which was good. but here comes JAXX with some electric guitars and some nasty jazz and totally kicks some serious ass. this is amazing, the beginning is hardcore elect guitar stumming. then he smacks you in the face with some slow jazz at 1:20. i thought the end of the song was a little abrupt and quick but it does the job. the beginning is also abrupt. there is no definite intro, it just jumps into the elect guitar which can be either good or bad. all i can say is, this song is too short. after i was done listening, i was begging for more.

How could that be so funny, yet so true? Just today I decided that I've been neglecting the reviews forum for far too long and decided to post some reviews of my favorites. Once I get to one I've been playing the song on repeat so I know more what I'm talking about in the review. When I saw the thread for this one I was excited because that means I get to listen to Lightening Star! There really aren't words to describe this mix (which I guess is why Mr. Pizza made up his own), its just THAT good. All men are created equal, all songs are not. Every once in a while a song comes along that is simply perfect in every way. Sonic 1's Star Light Zone was home to such a song. It was quite possibly one of the best songs ever created. Why anyone would think they could improve upon it is beyond me... but JAXX, you've succeeded. You've proved many wrong and you've improved upon perfection. I'm not even going to put the nice work guy here, because this is better than nice work. And I think I'm only still typing so that I don't move on to another review and have to press stop for this song. Trust me, anyone who's reading this who hasn't heard it, it truly is THAT good. |

AAAHHHHHH IT'S ROCK WITHOUT A STRONG TECHNO INFLUENCE!!!!!! WHAT HAS THIS SITE COME TO?? This is a simply beautiful remix... I love it. It NEVER drags for a second, it NEVER does some random (them)techno effect just for the hell of it, it NEVER gets annoying.... unless of course you weren't in the mood for a (seventies moment time) rockin' loud good time. 8/8

WOOO!
I really like this one ^_^ The only gripe I have is the slow half. While its not bad by any means, it sounds like a mix of two remixes...which I dont like, I would have preferred an all fast rocky one and an all slower Jazzy one than this. Nevertheless, Im keeping it because its just so awesome.
