When it was revealed that Rail Canyon was going to be part of Shadow Generations, I screamed like never before and when I finally got to see the full level, I cried. Many may think that Heroes is not the best game or they may even think that it is garbage, but for me it is a special game since it is where I met Sonic and the first game I was able to complete in my life. Seeing this level in a current quality, with mechanics that really benefit it and with this beautiful remix made me excited and remember why this is my favorite Sonic Heroes stage and why Sonic Heroes is my favorite Sonic game despite its flaws.
While it wasn't the first game I completed, Heroes was the first proper video game I ever played (not counting handheld Tetrisor Yahtzee) and so it also holds a special place in my heart. I prefer Frog Forest, but I'll admit that Rail Canyon/Bullet Station has the theme/aesthetics that fit with Shadow better.
Amen to your comment friend, Sonic Heroes is also my favorite Sonic game, and even though I have preference for other levels in the game, I liked Rail Canyon and the way they adapted it here!
This is the kind-of music that i want to hear in the next mainline Sonic game. Pure guitar riffs, amazing drums fills, insane bass, mesmerizing electronics, keyboards, etc. Also this sounds like a merge of the original Heroes Rail, SA2 Sky Rail, and have some motifs riffs from SA2.
people be saying that act 2 goes hard or slaps, and while it's good this shit's got rhythm, this shit is vibes and this shit slaps harder than a drunk dad, always one of my favourite heroes songs and this only made it better (still disappointed by the lack of EF/FF but can't win em all without the modders coming in clutch)
Extra Mission: “Here’s your next mission. Infiltrate the terminal station located in the middle of this base. This time the clock’s ticking away… so don’t waste any time!”
So glad that we got remixes of both Rail Canyon and Bullet Station. If only Space Colony Ark got this kind of treatment instead of getting 2 Final Rush remixes for some reason.
Sonic: "Tails! How much time's left?" Tails: "We've got until sunset!" Sonic: "Tails! Knuckles! Give it all you got...Full speed ahead!" Tails: "Ok!" Knuckles: "Got it!"
Just got the game yesterday, and god damn when i got to this stage, i was so happy seeing the trains, bomb trains, and the rail switches. Makes me hopeful that they make the stage this good in an eventual heroes remake. Overall, i was grinning from ear to ear the whole time 😁.
The "Canyon" stages are my fav stages in Heroes alongside Grand Metropolis and the "Castle" stages, despite how infuriating the rail grinding could be, every time I died from them and came back I'd become better, eventualy acing them with ease, leading me to knowing these stages by heart, not to mention appreciating everything about them, from the setting, story relevance, to the absolute banger that is the theme of "Bullet Station".
My ears have an ORGASM when I listen to this! They couldn’t have possibly done better with the bloody remix. The organ in this song is sexy as hell! It sounds like heaven, thank youuu SEGA! How could you improve upon this anymore than you have??? Act 2 is not as good unfortunately ffs
Exactly! I listen to this EVERYDAY on repeat. It is so good! That Hammond organ was one of the first instruments that I noticed that was elevated. It's like it's competing with the lead guitar. And Ahkt went berserk with those drums. With all them double bass notes. I was really waiting to hear this first Rail Canyon got announced months back. Sonic Heroes was my first Sonic game I ever played and this stage coming back just fed my inner childhood.
@@SydeLeaderRay This is the kind-of music that i want to hear in the next mainline Sonic game.

theres only 7 more stages that need representation of some kind (full blown, or juat music) and we will have collected them all! -Sea Gate -Power Plant -Frog Forest -Lost Jungle -Hang Castle -Mystic Mansion -Egg Fleet
I have no idea why they brought back the rail grinding stage in a boost game, where rail grinding is quite automated. Couldn't we get Hang Castle or Egg Fleet?
We got rail canyon because the stage is important to shadow. If you play heroes then you’ll know that shadow finds an android of himself after fighting Eggman (who is neo metal sonic). This then makes shadow question himself if he’s an android or not.
@@fmpj2528 Oh that makes sense because then that leads to Shadow Hedgehog. Still gameplay wise i would’ve preferred Hang Castle, but for the story i guess it makes sense.
Why does every track from this game have such low fidelity quality? It almost sounds like the same artifacts you get with AI generated songs. Hopefully it's just because the official soundtrack isn't released. Also, love the harder drums and cleaner guitar, but that organ really needs to go down in the mix and have more modulation and chorus cause it's so static and overpowering. Good soundtrack, just really hoped for something amazing after Frontiers.
As a Heroes defender... I definitely think they could've done better with this remix. Personally, it just doesn't sound like Rail Canyon to me. At least, not enough to justify use of it.
@@vinniehatcher664 def as an insult, which is funny seeing as drums is the backbone of most contemporary music, as well as bass. not sure wats hes goin on about
My ears BLEED when I listen to this! They definitely could have done better with this bloody remix. Like wtf is this strange organ doing in the song? It sounds like a loud, disjointed garage, whyyy SEGA?!?! How could you ruin this??? Act 2 is way better and thats not saying much ffs
then im assuming you dont like the original rail canyon either? the one in heroes had an organ, this version just has heavier guitar composition, sooo (ofc theres nothing wrong with your opinion, just pointing something out)

Unpopular opinion: Rail Canyon and Bullet Station were good stages. Im glad to see it return.
They are, once you get arround the quirks of rail switching in Sonic Heroes they are a blast to play.
Well they’re my second favourite stages in heroes. First being egg fleet and final fortress I’m a sucker for all the paths and high challenge
They are, but the physics in Heroes don't really do them any favours.
Based take in my opinion
I like rail canyon but not bullet station
“Tails how much times left?”
“We’ve got until sunset!”
“Tails, Knuckles, Give it all you got, Full Speed ahead!”
"OK"
"GOT IT"

Amen brother 🙏 though probably not my favourite in the series, it’ll always hold a special place in my heart ❤
Same here. I was excited to see Rail Canyon represented for Shadow Generations. It became my favorite level out of the first 2 stages.

To be fair, Rail Canyon/Bullet Station have more personal ties to Shadow since that's where the Shadow Androids were made/stored.
As someone who grew up playing the original Sonic Heroes to death as a kid, I love this remix of rail canyon more than the original.
The guitar hits so fucking hard in this one
same for the drum beat
The guitar hits but the drums bro, I damn near started floating when I heard the hard drums and breakdowns
Legendary remix of Rail Canyon, didn't know they could make a perfect banger perfecty-er and bangy-er
Extra Mission: “Here’s your next mission. Infiltrate the terminal station located in the middle of this base. This time the clock’s ticking away… so don’t waste any time!”

So glad that we got remixes of both Rail Canyon and Bullet Station.

Yea they could've used final chase, space gadget, cosmic fall, the ark and probably another one I'm missing

I've been replaying this track for the past half an hour or so. it's better than the original
An awesome stage from Sonic Heroes redone awesome. This is my second favored sound to listen to.

Started floating when I heard this in game man
Did my favorite zone JUSTICE with these remixes
"Move the left analog stick left or right and press the A button to jump from rail to rail."
Oh God you had to do manual jumps from rail to rail back then?? What were the bumpers and triggers for then??
Iirc, the bumpers and triggers had no function other than to use Team Blast or change the camera.
My favorite level from Heroes returns! (Purely for the visuals and nothing)
This remix sounds would fit perfectly for Sega All Star Racing.
One of my favorite levels in Heroes. Happy to hear and play this again in a new form.

This part always reminded me of the Totally Spies theme.
I am very ... I REALLY love the original location. I'm so happy it was added to the game!!!!
*Monokuma* : Your execution will be "Rail Canyon"
*The victim* : no please! I am very afraid of heights!! 😭😭
The epitome of Despair.
I listened to this with an amp. This slaps for sure 😂
Did anybody else’s brain go “wait, that’s not Mr. Unsmiley” when the stage started? 😂 never mind already having played the SA2 stages
Probably just you because it’s based on Rail Canyon from Heroes and not Sky Rail from Adventure 2.
wish the melody was more prominent in the instrumental but this remix isn’t bad
Still waiting for that Heroes remake, SEGA.
