Sebastian Beatty - Now that you mention it, it does sounds like a banjo. As for a basic preset, I’m not sure either. Though it’s very likely that, if it’s not a default sound, it wasn’t modified much.
@RoadhogTime13 I hated labyrinth zone and it got in my way of beating sonic 1 and I beat sonic 2 metropolis zone was fine and all the music for both sonic 1 and 2 were great
2:04 - Sounds like the background beat from "The Best of My Love" from The Emotions. Thanks for making this one, this song was always really good despite Labyrinth Zone itself being stress-inducing.
The 8 bit version is very jazzy. Like the 16 bit version, it's funny that such a happy tune is used for a nightmare level. Also...I found out, the lead is the e bass patch.

The beautiful thing about music of this generation was working in spite of limitations. You couldn't just record music and press it to the cartridge, so you worked with none simple channels and did your best from there. Hooks were paramount, and the first two Sonic games were loaded with them. Heck, the keen-of-ear could hear the hook from Emerald Hill in the Sonic 2 movie trailer.
Well like with most things. The first one is the test, the thing you like. The second refines it and is most peoples favourite. Then the third is the piece of resistance, the perfect end and the best of the entire thing. Then it continues after that and people go "Meh".
When you look at Sonic 1 as a whole, it really is surreal, from the level design to the music. Like I’m sure the special stages were directly inspired by an acid trip. I like how weird it is, the trippy aesthetic really helps distinguish it and CD from other titles.
I oddly didn't hate this stage when I first pushed through it, I think it makes for a nice change of pace and requires a bit more thinking and problem solving than the rest of the game (doesn't mean I don't understand the hate, it is very frustrating despite my praise for it and is probably my least favourite level in the game).
@@mikesannitti6042 Honestly I think it's the 3 acts. The mobile port makes the game easier, and even adds spindash, tails and Knuckles. It's still a pain, and all the other zones (except ghz/slz) feel like a copy and paste of metropolis. Bad level design, labyrinth on mobile took me like 30 lives to do, the hardest part was the boss
Am I the only person who had no problem with this zone? To me the only part that was remotely hard was the boss but even then it's not that difficult if you know how to underwater platform.
Nope. I actually like this level. Maybe because when I was a kid I sucked bad at this game and was stoked to make it this far. But even now as an adult, I don't mind this level. Hydrocity and Aquatic Ruin definitely elevated Sonic water levels, but I still like good 'ol Labyrinth Zone. The true OG water level. lol.
I have no trouble now but when the game was new and i was... 7...ish? I couldn't get past the boss at all. Finally seeing Star Light Zone was almost magical.
I've never considered it to be that difficult, it's just that Sonic controls so unbelievably slow, and the level design is so blocky and claustrophobic that it just doesn't come off as a fun level. The other classic games definitely handled their water levels better in my opinion.
It is manageable until you panic. Chasing Robotnik was a panic, especially if you were out of rings. When I was younger, I would try to outpace the rising water, which usually ended with a spear up the rear.
@@DimTimTimmyDimmy bro that was 1 year ago when fnf was born and less cringe than it is now, i used to like the game but since the end of 2022 it became complete shit full of cringy toddlers
Not really, Scrap Brain takes the cake. This is a close second. Difficulty wise, for me, is: Green Hill Zone Marble Zone Starlight Zone Spring Yard Zone Labyrinth Zone Scrap Brain Zone
It seems like the Minecraft version of the Labyrinth Zone is a whole lot easier than the original, probably because it's built in 3D allowing a lot more freedom with the layout of it. Minecraft used recordings of a lot of Sonic themes from the Genesis games, like Green Hills Zone, Chemical Plant Zone, even Sky Chase Zone just to name a few.
It’s not that people hate the music. It’s just that people dislike the level design. I have no trouble with the level today, but it was excruciating back then.
That's almost the same bass line. Another one not related to this video is that the melody to the VZW default tone is the same as the 1980s song In My House.
(sing to the beat after the song intro) I just can't do this shit, I just can't play anymore You claim your game is fast, but here I am on the floor I'm gonna flip my shit, I'll put you back into the drawer I hear you calling out, I just can't take it This gun is jammed. *click... click...* Oh Sonic, baby, why you go and do this? Why? I loved you so... I loved you, baby Why don't you have save files like in Mariooooo? Gonna take your little hedgehog tushy I fuckin' mean it, dude, I really mean it (Second chorus) *WHY DO I BOTHER? WHY IS LIFE WORTH LIVING?*
@@pastorjoelbussi4312 Yeah. I'm just saying I like the zone. I understand where all the hate is coming from. I've just played it so much I don't really mind the zone anymore. The music kind of fits, but not too much.
I like the composer managed to make some FM synthesizers plucking sounds sound like a steel drum in this song to give it a tropical Caribbean like feel to it. That part always stuck out to me because it sounded so unique just like how Aquatic Ruin Zone's piano stuck out to me to give it a Latin/Hispanic Tango vibe to it and how the slap bass stuck out to me in Hydrocity Zone Act 1 to give a laid back urban type Funky Hip-Hop feel to it
man, imagine praising just one composer, but not the programmers who did the rest of the music for the finalization it takes a lot of coding and programming to make those sounds
0:55 I've seen a lot of remixes that get this part of the song wrong 🙃 I hope this deconstruction makes things clear on how the song really sounds like
I didn't realize until now that two channels just go unused for the first half of the song. ...I also didn't realize that this song had an actual bass instead of the main instrument just being the bass.
Personally i had more trouble with Scrap Brain rather than Labyrinth.Especially since ive always been good at the underwater levels,all Labyrinth did was add boobytraps XD.

Labyrinth zone is like having a car crash while elevator music is playing
-Some random guy
You sure made me giggle!
Labyrinth Zone is being a kid and learning the hard way what it feels like having your trust broken.
Such a bizarrely upbeat and fun song for the most painful zone in the game lol
*in the franchise
I.... Actually like labyrinth zone. I'm not joking. I actually do.
Scrap Brain is worse
still better than Marble Zone...
The only thing that kept me calm during those levels as a kid was the soundtrack
0:37 I don’t know why, but I love how that instrument sounds. That’s part of the reason why I love this song
Agreed. I like this song for the same reason.
Agent Blackbird - The song sounds... alright on the GBA version. But the twang sounds better on Genesis.
I believe thats a basic FM string sound. Could have even been based off a banjo preset when it was created. Don't know for sure but its my best guess
Sebastian Beatty - Now that you mention it, it does sounds like a banjo. As for a basic preset, I’m not sure either. Though it’s very likely that, if it’s not a default sound, it wasn’t modified much.
Sorry for the bump, but if I'm correct, that waveform served as Mystic Cave Zone's bass line.
one of the most hated sonic levels and it's music still slaps. amazing lol
@RoadhogTime13 I hated labyrinth zone and it got in my way of beating sonic 1 and I beat sonic 2 metropolis zone was fine and all the music for both sonic 1 and 2 were great

@@RewriteXR8839 for me it’s the other way around

Have to agree. It's a masterwork of a song.
Labyrinth zone Act 4
2:40 sounds like the opening to a sitcom
Sounds better than the rest of the song. No joke.
Labyrinth Zone Act 3:)
When the bass is the main melody
you mean the second high pitch bass?, because the real bass is on channel 1

strangely it almost sounds like lithium also
2:38 _Oh-oh! You’ve got the best of my love!_

damn its just like "best of my love"
Glad im not the only one who thought that. Been thinking that as a child playing this game.

It's used as the actual bass in Mystic Cave

Pool's closed.
Why has nobody ever made a mashup with this and the Cleveland show theme?
it exists but it’s very obscure
Interesting fact, Channel 0 has the exact same sound as the bass in Mystic Cave Zone in Sonic 2
After Sonic 2-3K, Sonic 1 is kinda weird, even its music.
