Sonic 3 - Carnival Night Zone Remake (2010)

[darkhappines]

Anything but the barrel NOES!

[TheCantinflillas5]

Fuckin barrel!!! Dx

[fravitmonk]

I'm designing a Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 park themed to Sonic the Hedgehog and I've been looking for a good remix to use as area music for my Carnival Night Zone land. I think I've found it :)

[1finallygotunleashed]

No, the barrel, ThE barReL, NOO, The BARREL NOOOOOO!

*Get trauma forever...*

[comok64]

oh God the barrel

[cocokittykiller]

Gawd this level was so evil... those damn platforms.....

Amazing song though. I definitely love this song originally and I love this version :3

[Kimiomega]

this music makes me like the american sonic

which is really hard to me

[Cyclonial]

From Youtube.. now I'm in the circus. O_O

[TheBLASTPROCESSING]

The Guy under me is wrong, This is not only the best level in Sonic 3 but the best level in all of his games. This is My favorite Sonic level ever

[shinken209]

Worst level........but Sonic 3 is still my favorite game.......Ice Cap cancels everything that the game falls short of.....

[DeltaAlphaX]

The moment the electric instruments came in, I knew this was going to be good - not just because of the instruments, but because the change was smooth.

[Teknoheist]

1:20

Thriller?!

[RednekGamurz]

@Teknoheist holy shit that was a bit of thriller! I heared that some of michel jackson's music was in this game but damn that was cleaver

[MrKingsyboy]

So, you're telling me... all I had to do... was press up and down? FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

[supersonicdrawer]

does 1:02 remind anyone of crazy gadget?

[twibkidx]

AHHHH! CLOWNS!!!

[LimitBeats]

hell yeah, this is great. i love sonic.

[OmagaMinion]

Can you do a mid boss theme in sonic 3

[SergioOblood]

Ash, como detestaba ese mundo >=Z pero el juego es Lo MÁXIMO!

[JMKGameSaversEnt]

Carnival Night Zone begs for lyrics from a brental-Jackson. That's brentalfloss combined with Michael Jackson.

[Zx30]

Amazing composer. I love all of your work so far. Downloading for sure.

[AuraGuardianML]

My nightmare has come back to haunt me ._.

Amazing remix by the way. :3

[Kimiomega]

the picture is moving...

[ThePaslos]

Yay I love it....but its scary when you imagine clowns...

[ShenSaiya]

Don't know why....but the Golden Saucer from FF7 comes to mind when I listen too this!

[HectorLocoful]

this need to be in sonic generations

[EndOfTheW0rld]

Do the Sonic 3 miniboss theme!

[racingfan312]

Can't stop listening! Awesome remix!

[jaynine454]

Goddamn it! All I see is that evil yellow barrel!

[supersonicdrawer]

IT SO SUITS SONIC GENERATOINS. YOU NEED TO SHOW SEGA THIS. THE BASS MAKES IT LIKE IT.

[Dante0397]

@supersonicdrawer

you mean the fatty style.

[supersonicdrawer]

@Dante0397 huh? no i mean the sort of dancey style mix. its JUST like sonic generations classic music

[Dante0397]

@supersonicdrawer

Well I stil think is kind of "Hey I'm old sonic" and then you take a look at his belly, well.

[wopadoo]

Love this. I only made a Sonic music remake for the first time this week, although more tongue in cheek (see video response to this thread of my version of Casino Night Zone)

Carnival Night was the next one I thought about doing which is how I found your version Ubergrau....you've made me realise there way more possibilities. I love your version. Subtle, textured and tonally spot on. Excellent work.

[gjtrue]

@felborfern I MEANT @masadius3 on Twitter! ;-)

[gjtrue]

@felborfern LOL! Guess I'm not the only one! Follow good ol' boring me on Twitter! I'm @masadius

[zomgcontraishard]

Definitely have to watch the new Sonic Shorts Volume 6. There's a part where it shows this dreaded zone's Barrel. It's hilarious XD

[dannysimion]

not bad at all. a good playful rendition to the original. this used to be one of my favorite and few BGM's that sonic 3 had to offer. nice.

[MamaLuigiBarrelRoll]

Those damn barrels... But you know what they say (and by "they" I mean absolutely no one), "When in doubt, DO A BARREL ROLL!"

[gjtrue]

I figured out the barrel part on my first playthrough! Though by the time I DID, I ran out of time.... :(

[felborfern]

@gjtrue I did the same, I found it out and the time ran out, I got so angry I stopped playing Sonic for a week before completing this zone

[sbeatty85]

I love this so very much!! I love the "Thriller" add!! It makes me wanna dance all night long!!

[MrC0ne]

This is really great, nice work

[KENNYPWNAGE]

This song is one the reasons Sonic 3 is one of my favorite Sega Games ever

[SuperMegaLoser]

when i played that game on my mega drive i tried to bet the spinning barrel to go low enough by jumping. not by up - down. it was a nightmare hard to describe. i loved the theme but hated the entire act just be cause of that spot. nightmarish.

[DOHCEJ22E1]

This song is just as epic as that barrel.

Talk about balance...

[idioticstudiogames]

lol at pingas in the tags

[KENNYPWNAGE]

Press Up and Down the barrel

FUCK

[nintendoseagaill]

@KENNYPWNAGE i know what you mean man.... IT TOOK ME 6 YEARS TO FINALY FIND OUT I HAD TO PRESS UP AND DOWN TO MAKE THE BARRLE Well go up and down...'um that didnt come out like i had planned

[sonicfan23]

so fucking sick dude. Love it...

[faisalabulaziz1]

too good for youtube bro,, ;)

[DOHCEJ22E1]

Unbelievable. This is possibly the best in remixes out there.

[UnfareVideogame]

R.I.P Michael Jackson

[s60evolve]

I've been listening to this all day. In the car, and at home. Even after all that, the first 6 seconds still make me wanna smile and bob up and down hahaha. excellent, too excellent for words! amazing!

[BloodyAnbu2]

I got to be the 100th like! :D My life is now complete! <3 Now to play this awesome stage!

[murphy341]

love the electric guitar man that was a nice touch

[CheatMasterAOD]

I love how even at a young age when I first played this , I was the only one who didn't have a problem with the barrel

[DATDUDE1979]

I gotta add this to my Roller Coaster Tycoon Play list. THANK YOU!!!

[woolythehedgehog]

1:21 IT'S THE THRILLER!!

(Yes I already know...)

[Whammy8685]

I mean the one at the beginning of the zone as well.

[chaserthewolf]

Dude how the hell do you compose your music? o.O This is completely awesome.

[stew904]

*throws controller @ tv* damn you barrell!!!

[TreatyMusic]

This sounds so clean. Excellent work.

[AniLucifer]

I really like this remix. How do I say...? Well it's feels like you're in the carnival night in real life!

[Sonicsally01]

This has to be blaring on the loudspeakers at Happyland Amusement Park.

[Osuoa]

WOWWWOWOOAAAAAA- 

[stew904]

-_- DAMN THAT BARREL.......

[SSJSonicguy]

this theme makes me wish that they make A new sonic 3.

[thelegendwarrior100]

Good choice of remix for one of my favorite music of Sonic 3. Very carnival-y...

[Solarisle888]

can't wait to hear your remix of icecap and lava reef and sky sanctuary zones

[rafaelpoeta2]

Woooww thanks for this perfect remake! Thanks!!!!!

[DonPolarek]

AMAZING is all i have to say

[WHISTLEHEADtheTRAINZ]

I would subscribe if I hadn't already subscribed.

[sonicfanjacob]

whats up with thriller at 1:19?

[ubergrau]

@sonicfanjacob Honoring Michael Jackson's memory. He worked with the composers for this game.

[pokeplayer935]

@ubergrau That and this stage is just scary, and full of thrills! =D

[Sonicsally01]

@pokeplayer935 Ummm....how was that stage scarry?

[pokeplayer935]

@Sonicsally01 Well it was SCARY in the sense that the second zone is near impossible to beat.

[Sonicsally01]

@pokeplayer935 Oh yeah, that F@#$ing Barrel near the end right?

[pokeplayer935]

@Sonicsally01 XD Yeah, its so retarded.

[Whammy8685]

@Sonicsally01 I know how to get by that barrel with ease.

[Sonicsally01]

@Whammy8685 everyone knows how to get past that barrel by now.

[JoeyMammoth]

@sonicfanjacob That's actually Jam by MJ

[Kooper05]

As someone who can sing any sonic level song on cue, there are very few remakes/remixes I can stand. Your creations really do the original series good justice. The icing on the cake to me are the images you have. Did you make the sonic oriented ones yourself or did you find them?

[ubergrau]

@Kooper05 I made all of them, except for photographs like Salto Angel from Green Hill Zone orchestrated.

I'm glad you like them!!

[Melkac]

I love you...I love you...I love you carnival night song...

Oh, yeah, you did a good job here, huh? xD

[robotmaster101]

Can you do Casino Night Zone?

Please?

[ubergrau]

@robotmaster101 I will, it's only a matter of time lol

[genx304]

@ubergrau can you do a remix of any song of streets of rage 2

[kittykatBflat]

boing...... boing dingdingdingding ...................dingdingdin­gding (fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu@#$@)

[Froodjakle]

Well, you just earned yourself another subscription. This is a REAL orchestral version of the song.. It actually sounds legitimately orchestral, unlike something that just changes the instruments to sound orchestral. Great job man, 5/5.

[Mrules4ever]

na na na na na na na na na na *BOOM*

[RuneArcN8]

I may have hated the stage for that obvious little obstacle going up and down. But the way you have done this, it's like someone converted the song into something realistic It feels like someone converted the genesis pixels into reality... Well that's imagination in a sense.

[ArgusProducts]

This is Excellent ! You bring me to the Carnival and improve this song to a higher level. Love it so much, THX for posting~

[janofam]

OK, people, it's carnival time. C'mon, everyone, put your hands together and...

CLAP CLAPCLAP

CLAP CLAPCLAP

CLAP CLAPCLAP

CLAP CLAPCLAP

This is awesome.

[AshForte]

How exactly was this created?

[WithePaladin]

C00L! One of the greatest games ever =)

[carpet202]

Excellent!!!

[Thomas4trainz]

I can picture MJ playing this tune up there in heaven on an organ :) (He did help compose it, after all)

[TheGammaRayBurst]

Surely such a high quality remake like this took some serious dedicated time to compose because this is excellent.

[Pgirts]

This is awesome. Have you thought of tackling the Sonic 3 boss theme with an orchestral arrangement?

[ubergrau]

@Pgirts Ah yes I thought about it, but dummeh (Blake Robinson) have already done an incredible job with it. I could somekind of electronic or rock version with some orchestra parts...

I'm glad you like this remake, thank you also for the inspiration ^^

[EzTheHusky]

Oh god, I HATED this level @_@ just too many tricks and often hard to navigate in my opinion, though the music sometimes took my mind off it and made me laugh :P

[1ucasvb]

Dude, your remakes are the ONLY ones that struck as "true" so far for me. Keep 'em coming!

[Delfino224]

lol I hear Thriller in here! Great work as always!

[AzukaraMegaDriver]

The Thriller was like the best part of the song.

Really though, this is awesome. :D

[purplecowadoom]

It's a really good version of it, but whenever I hear the original, I'm thinking more along the lines of the classiest rap song ever created. Now I HATE rap songs, so it would have to be AMAZING, but that's what I get from it.

[Wisepy]

Men you're great! I love your work and I hope you keep doing this stuff, especialy themes from sonic :D

[NSxProductions]

How does this only have barely over 1k views? D:

[ubergrau]

@NSxProductions It has to be RoBUTTnik.

[Skyrage01]

Utterly amazing. I've never heard a remake this fantastic. I am definitely looking forward to a Hydrocity version from you, good sir.

[SupCor]

this is great! Have you ever thought about remixing the ending credits theme to sonic 3? If you did that I bet it would be awesome!

[jdrcomposer]

This is amazing man! The orchestra sounds great with it, and after playing it 5 times, still manages to make me laugh:) Nice work

[ubergrau]

@jdrcomposer Hahah thanks! I'm glad you like it!

[kitschameleon1]

@ubergrau please do one of ice cap zone, if you havent done so already! :)

[ubergrau]

@kitschameleon1

I tried something a few weeks ago, II'm blocked with it. It's hard to stand out from the thousand remixes,I want to finish it though :)

[tonetone37x]

GAAAAAAAAH!!! THE BARREL!!! THE BARREL!!!!! GAAAAAAAH!!! >o<

[PalidFingers]

@tonetone37x I Hate that Fucking Barrel!

[YouDuck2345]

@tonetone37x Oh do not get me started. It took me YEARS to figure out that you had to LOOK DOWN AND UP. >_<

[bincogta]

@tonetone37x PRESS UP WHEN THE BARREL GO UP AND DOWN WHEN THE BARREL GO DOWN

[shadowZG121]

@bincogta i used to spend the last seconds of my time on that part when i was young

[animalover82]

@tonetone37x lol i no how to get past it

[YouDuck2345]

@tonetone37x And that was my reaction to that level for six or seven years.

[hagashification]

@tonetone37x  Barrel: Rawr >:3

[TheCantinflillas5]

@tonetone37x i cant pass those freakin barrels!!!!!!!!!!!!! T_T

[tomenaki]

I'm not going to lie... I love this version, and I've always thought it was one of the best themes in Sonic 3. Also... I always got stuck in this place lol.

[shoopwhoopX]

HOLY FUCK FENCE

[Overdoseplus]

I think this is your best one so far.

Looking forward to more.

[QCDeViLMaN666QC]

hahaha awesome faitful and EPIC as alway goodjob Ubergrau ur the best Sonic Remixer !!!

[dummeh]

Great work as always, man. I love how it keeps faithful with the orchestra on top and adding to, rather than replacing the original piece.

[ubergrau]

@dummeh Thanks Blake, I'm glad you like it!

1:20 "Cause this is thriller, thriller night" haha, it is well hidden

[dummeh]

@ubergrau

Aha, yeah I heard that bit. I'd love to hear how your version of mystic cave would sound considering how faithful you manage to keep your stuff.

[silverpandaz]

I cannot get over the horror of that barrel!

[ubergrau]

@silverpandaz I see that barrel...everywhere.

[WarriorOfGod932]

@silverpandaz Same, then after all that trying, i found out that all you needed to do was to move D-pad up and down while on it......... I just doted myself. But how is anyone supposed to find that out????

[silverpandaz]

@WarriorOfGod932 lol i know right! i've heard it took some people a few years to figure that out ><

[animalover82]

@silverpandaz lol it did played since i was little and never got it till i was 17 year old lol i gave up back then tile now

[sonicpower23]

This Probably Made People Remember The frustration They Had During This.

[Crazep0per]

Wow. I'm left speechless......

[MajorDump]

God your stuff is amazing. Don't stop the old school Sonic remixes.

[VGMusicMaker]

i like the quality of the sounds they are crisp but i think that the Beat should have played a larger role i think the clap and kick felt kind of thin over the rest of the music anyways this still really good you have a great ability to improv even if it was just for a little bit at 0:46 *faved

[ubergrau]

@VGMusicMaker There is a big difference between how the song sounds on youtube; the mp3 is more bassy somehow...

Thanks (for the fav too!), I had to improvise something even if it was short; or the song simply repeats itself forever hehe!



[ChikenNuggetSoup]

Ninanin.

It was kind of, err, off compared to the original, I'm probably one of a bunch of fans of older sonic games, and this really doesn't give me a nostalgic feeling, or rather it did at the beginning, It's a really nice remake but I must ask, is 0:43 the way it is because of the copywrite issue from Michael Jackson's "Jam"?

[TheBoyInBlack]

@ChikenNuggetSoup I doubt that would be the reason, since the "Jam" riff is used at both 1:17 and at the end.

[BillyandBoby]

Epicness on my stick!

[CTFievel]

Wasn't expecting this, but you handled it expertly, as usual. Well done. You keep making music for levels I don't usually think about get stuck in my head, in a good way. Looking forward to more work!

[ubergrau]

@CTFievel Thanks I'm glad you like it! If you have a music suggestion you're welcome, it can be from any old Sega game.

[CTFievel]

@ubergrau Well, so far, for all the Sonic themes you've done so far, all have been from levels which I enjoy, but not principally for the music, and yet you've made me love the themes for all the ones you have done now. But I do wonder what Hydrocity Act 2 or Either Marble Garden Act would sound like if you interpreted it.

And congratulations for your recognition by SEGA of America.

[ubergrau]

@CTFievel I really like these two ones; I'll keep that in mind!

I'm honored by their recognition! Thank you for the congrats!

[QCDeViLMaN666QC]

@CTFievel there a difference with hydrocity act 1-2 ??

[CTFievel]

@QCDeViLMaN666QC Out of all the themes in Sonic 3 and Knuckles, Hydrocity is the one with the most drastic change between acts. You can see it for yourself. All Sonic music is posted on YouTube somewhere, I think SilvaGunner has all Sonic music on his channel.

[sacredbanana]

EPICNESS ON A STICK!
