@Movie Sonic its an iconic level and soundtrack from sonic 2 and gets no love from anywhere officially related. I know chemical plant is MORE iconic, but they didn't need to use it in 3 games over the past decade.

This remix really pulls out the groove and new jack swing stylings of this track, better than the original did! Tee Lopes really knows how to breathe life back into already solid tunes.
The project's been cancelled over a year because of a problem with the main programmer not allowing anyone else to touch his source code. He basically had plans to commercialize this for his own monetary gain.
News is that the project just rebooted with a new engine. "On June 23rd, 2014, The Facebook page for Sonic 2 HD announced that they had begun work again on the fan game. The reason for this is the fact that a fan of the project independently created and submitted his own engine to Vincent, for evaluation. After integrating the art assets from the alpha release and successfully testing it, Vincent began to let the rest of the prior team members know, deciding to pick up where they left off save for those who were unavailable due to real life obligations."

@@MonoDree i'm making music for and am about to start a fan project that is essentially mania 2, though i kinda forgot about mystic cave zone when coming up with zones to put in the game. Maybe for a sequel to the fangame or a secret zone
100%! Thank you to Sega for seeing this genius & hiring him to be part of the team. What Tee Lopes did for Sonic Mania is majestic on every level. Sonic games should be made with that level of love involved because the future games should be on par with how great that Sonic Symphony was for the 30th Anniversary.
If you do revisit this song, keep the drums man. They are so sick and very 89/90' new jack swing. Needs that sickening slap bass from the original. Also while im here, your work on mania was outstanding. PS hugely appreciate you not changing hydrocity save for updated sounds. It manages to simultaneously sound fresh and also exactly the same, its pure magic.
Recently, I've been revisiting my old favorite games, which is sonic 1, 2, and CD. Mystic Cave Zone by far is my favorite song out of it all, and this is amazing. I love it.
I wish I would have known about your channel sooner. I have Goosebumps listening to this music. I was searching for Sonic Mania style spring yard Zone music and the first video I clicked on was horrible then I saw yours. It almost brought a tear to my eye because I was so overwhelmed with the fact that I actually got what I wanted. Thank you so much.
Tee Lopes revisit it? mystic cave is one of my most favorite vgm's ever. all remixes available on youtube seem to fall short, but I enjoyed this one the most. If you currently have knowledge on how to make it better I eagerly await that release!
+Tee Lopes I've been messing around with music stuff for a few years now and I *still* can't figure out compression all the way. And yet, this is still better than anything I could do. :/
Tee Lopes you are a genius. I loved your work on Sonic Mania. If they ever bring a sequel to that, it’s going to be epic with your rendition of the music. Good work man.
Sounds less like a remix and more like a reMAKE. It actually keeps the spirit of the original while upping the sound quality in ways I couldn't have _imagined. Very_ nice work.
Mannnn i remember hearing this song as a kid and was like why did sonic go so hard on their music for real. Saturday mornings were filled with cleaning and these tracks in the sound test 😂
This is still one of my favorite zones in sonic 2. The zone was so fun to play through. sometimes i even used Level select just so i can play it again XD
This remix makes me so fucking happy. This is by far the best remix attempt I've heard, bar none. This song was ALWAYS, and still is, my favorite track from any Sonic game. Amazing job. Is there a way to get this track? I want it.
Flying battery is my fav :) cant find a decent remix for it though. The original just cant be matched. That guy playing the bass line on youtube though is badass
Tee was killin' it way back before we noticed him.
We? Speak for yourself. I've been listening to his music for years. Since the beginning of the Sonic2HD project, actually.
@@tmthylthm cool bro
@@tmthylthm congrats to the only person in history to ever listen to tee lopes music

@@Jinxed625 agreed! Cant stop tapping my feet!
I fell like that the theme "mystic" should be explored more if the zone appears in a future game.
Well now it’s mania-fied in sonic mania thanks to a mod :D

PsychoJosh but sonic is not "funky fresh" (Yes I did)
Nicholas Tosoni it also works for Hydrocity
it reminds me of 90's new york hip hop style music..
+Peter Singletary the sega genesis was seriously an oldschool hip hop beat machine
It's called New Jack Swing. Check out Bel Biv Devoe, Bobby Brown, or Cardi B and Bruno Mars's new track!

@@1jidion exactly, that's why I like it!
@@MRT408 growing up with shows like the Addams family and the munsters, mystic cave had those vibes
So happy that Sonic 2 HD is being brought back from the dead and is now being worked on again :D
Whoa, that's great! Glad I read your comment, would never have known!
lilmattere no, this is a cancelled project
Evan Carlile Look at the date that comment was posted. Now think twice before replying to out of date comments.
Yeah, it was cancelled, but it's been brought back. There's an update on their Facebook page from just a month ago.
The speed at which this game is being developed makes me think that Half-Life 3 will come out sooner than this...
This remix really pulls out the groove and new jack swing stylings of this track, better than the original did! Tee Lopes really knows how to breathe life back into already solid tunes.
Tee Lopes, always ready to give me an eargasm.
This is my JAM.
if they ever make this game fully, i can die in peace and happy

Mecha120 what a dick move by that guy
Mecha120 That guy is an idiot. That's why most fan-made games/mods/remakes are usually open-source and take donations to make money.
Justin Pickette why do you have to die in pain and sorrow? WHY?

Super Sonic’s one weakness THE PIT I mean besides running out of time, running out of rings, drowning, falling into endless pits and getting crushed
Gives me chills this version. If this got played in the club I don't think I'd make it home.. Funky as fk

I love the deep of this music, all littles sounds on the background that greatly enhance this good song.
Best version, remixed by an absolute legend!
This is some Streets of rage shieeet!
Awesome!!
Wouldn't it be awesome if Tee Lopes does remixes for the Street of Rage series?
Fuck yeah!
1 year ago and I'm still listening to this!
10/10
And the best part about reading this is seeing in Lopes interviews that's what he wants to do next. Man, if they remade SoR, I'd lose my shit!
Ricardo Freitas: Alright!A Streets of Rage fan!
Lets just hope they make Sonic Mania 2 and put this in
3 years later and that still hasn't happened yet, but the fans have put the zone in the game through moding so we have that.
And now we are here with Sonic origins a year later. hopfully the next 2D sonic game is actually sonic mania 2
@@MonoDree i'm making music for and am about to start a fan project that is essentially mania 2, though i kinda forgot about mystic cave zone when coming up with zones to put in the game. Maybe for a sequel to the fangame or a secret zone
SEGA knew they stood no chance competing with Tee's music. That's why they hired him.
I take it back. THIS is the best one.
If Sega remasters Sonic 2, i hope this one goes on it.
This is still the best version of this iv ever heard lol i was just thinking about it today
you are the best sonic remixer to ever walk on planet mobius

This Remix is such a Bop!!! I know this is old but Keep up the Amazing work! 😎👍
Where has this been all my life??? I love it
Mystic Cave was already my favorite track in the whole franchise, I knew this was gonna slap HARD.
*INSPECTOR GADGET INTENSIFIES*
I love the little subtle nods to Streets of Rage with the bongos in the latter half of the song. Very nice!
Oh my goodness! This song so divine! My little brother and I used to break grandmothers wheelbarrow to the rhythm. Much thank you! Tremendous!
why am i just now finding this song, this remix is awesome and exactly how i wanted a tee lopes remix to sound, great job as usual
So happy you're in composing for Sonic Superstars!!!
This song got the attention of whitehead and pulled Tee Lopes in for Mania. Gotta be
You snapped on this 👍🏼
This feels so classic but modern to

I always picture Sonic throwing down some sick moves on the dance floor when I hear this track lol dabbing and doing some crazy footwork
I hope this zone appears in sonic mania! This remix is so cool too, is love to see what tee lopes would do with it for mania
:( Nope
Plazma Dolphin that’s what the modding community is for
Wooow you can just tell that the original composition for this piece was done in the early 90's. This sounds so retro!!
it's been 10 years and throughout that time not a single person liked your comment I got u man
Running through endless spooky mines... in the 90s. I love Sonic, and, this remix kicks ass too. Let's go.
Bass doesn't have the same presence it had in the original. Really needs to be louder.
Tee Lopes Also, just to point out that the original bass was done slap and pop style, where this doesn't appear to be.

Holy crap, this was four years ago and now a build of Sonic 2 has released and is absolutely amazing
Sonic 2 HD needs to be officially recognized by SEGA and made into an actual release like Sonic Mania!
I love how funky it is. Great job.
Always loved Mystic Cave (though nothing beats Ice Cap IMO, don’t @ me), and this remix even gives me Team Skull vibes. Keep it up!
Tee Lopes you are a genius. I loved your work on Sonic Mania. If they ever bring a sequel to that, it’s going to be epic with your rendition of the music. Good work man.
True to the original release time period, thanks for that
Best Halloween song
I think this is the reason why I subbed on this channel a long time ago. Look how far you've come! Congratulations with Sonic Mania!
this is the coolest music I ever heard in my entire life
That's kind of over- exaggerated.
This feels like im at a Halloween party and somone playin this fire
Tee cooking since day 1 🔥🔥
this reminds me of halloween so much i love it, one of my top 10 sonic songs probably!!
This sounds like a theme for a group of funky 90s aliens
one of your best remixes tee!!, incredible!!!, in this remix if it has electro effect, and realism
You are the best techno musician in the entire freaking world.
This needs more recognition and maybe even Sega should offer him a job talent like this shouldn't be thrown away.

Tee Lopes sure knows how to make the remixes sound like nostalgic 90s🙃🤗🤗🤗
Four years late but I agree!
This is still one of my favorite zones in sonic 2. The zone was so fun to play through. sometimes i even used Level select just so i can play it again XD
