Track - Sonic 2 - Emerald Hill Zone
Original Composer - Masato Nakamura
Cover Made By - Peshtiwar Botani

I usually focus on orchestral music, so this is something I usually don't do. It's an attempt of the style of Tee Lopes/Sonic Mania, I don't think it's great but I don't think it sucks either. 

Also I noticed that I transcribed the first 3 notes of the melody wrong and had to fix it and re-upload, the brass is also better programmed now.

In my opinion it's like half way there. I have done an attempt like this in the past that is way worse in my opinion. 

I will most definitely make more attempts of this track when I get better at this style, I consider this more of a practice right now.

Take it for a spin!

Hi Peshti!

You've said this is halfway there, and I agree. You've got a nice balance of voices in the piece so far; the Tee Lopes influence comes through here. One thing I'm noticing is that the piece currently stays the same dynamic throughout; part of that is the drums keeping the same 4-bar loop (with the same fill) after the intro. I recommend leaning into the hits at :42 and seeing what you can come up with to bring us back around to the A section around :45. The lack of percussive transition to the B section around :17 also plays into this feeling.

You're off to a good start here! Looking forward to hearing how this progresses ?
