Reversed Sonic Music!

Sonic CD Final Boss (Jap), it sounds really scary but cool at the same time.
Sonic CD boss theme (US), man surprisingly is almost the same as the original, even the laughter is similar.
Emerald Hill Zone, one word, awesome, that's the word I though when I heard this piece.

 

Green Hill Zone is one of my favourite reversed tunes. Sound even jollier than the original (Was that even possible?) and something like a Chaotix tune in places. It's just a shame that intro passage is only ever heard once... at the end.

I sure wouldn't mind hearing backward renditions of the Sonic music in people's hacks -- it sure would beat some of the more... questionable music choices some people have. :3

EDIT

Fuck, Dr. Robotnik's Theme from Sonic 1 has The motherfucking Flash Man riff! <3

 

Metropolis zone Sounds pretty awesome.
the S3 miniboss music Turns out extremely kickass! Starts out really odd, but it turns into a definite hit closer to the end. Love the bassline on this one.

Edit: How could I forget Doomsday Zone?! Much of the original tune is intact, but sounding much more sinister.

 

I'm so putting backwards GHZ in S2R :P

Only thing that freaks me out about all of these is the backwards Kick + Snare...it just sounds...I don't know :X

 

Yeah, MK reverse Tweaker's S2HD remaster of Oil Ocean Zone, and I soooo wanted it without the "suck snare" -- it sounded like Anakaris' tune from Darkstalkers, I shit ye not.

I get back to uni and my dell laptop (Which has my midi program on it), and I'm fucking with some backwards arrangements.

 

Just get a Green Hill .midi and revert the order of the notes. It will be the backwards song but without the instruments sounding weird. And you can even edit a few notes that doesn't come up well.
It's amazing how some songs still have some consistence even though they're backwards. I would be pleased if you guys could do the method above for those songs to see how they would sound like.

Also, I found this:

Sounds similar to the original, but I like it!

 

How comes none of you have posted this yet?

Get lost noob indeed.

 

PPA, although that's very funny I wouldn't like to see this topic devolve into backmasked lyrics discussion personally. I've heard most of them, and there's not a lot of depth to be had from it.

However, melodies that sound good either way... this intrigues me.

 

Now how about we actually take the game's music and reverse the order of the notes instead of just reversing the output?

The percussion sounds like absolute ass and it makes it extremely difficult to enjoy these, which is unfortunate because they're actually pretty good.

 

Wow, these sound good. I'm going to have to make remixes. Maybe in Project: Sonic Retro?
EDIT: DARN IT! I missed Namagem's completely. Well, then, why not Flying Battery Zone?
Or Sandopolis?

 

I think Flying Battery Zone reminds me of Greensleeves in parts (The reversed chorus) and Sandopolis has more than a bit in common with the composition of Korobeiniki, also known as the theme to Tetris.

These are pretty cool.

 

Yes, is there any way to only reverse the notes? In my Spagonia example, the percussion DOES ruin it.

 

This is the best one, if not amazing simply for the panning effects.

Hell I'd reverse it, if I had the mod files.

I always thought Bridge Zone sounded awesome reversed. I don't have any audio examples on hand, though

Also I recall, when I first was getting into XP, I took various random MIDIs and played them in fast-forward on Windows Media Player (literally 5x their speed). Sky Sanctuary sounds like some sort of epic space opera tune at that speed... Botanic Base's percussion lead also starts to blend together at 5x, with some interesting results. I'd give you audio results of this, but my computer seems to lock up if I record audio while a MIDI is playing. (At least, it did last I tried it, several months ago. Haven't really wanted to attempt it since.)

 

Make them

Ask, and you will receive.

 

It actually sounds better :o

Also the filename XD

 

This is awesome. My favorite so far has to be Bridge Zone.

C'mon, someone has to try and actually reverse the melodies!

 

It's too bad my computer is broken; I would totally go and reverse some songs right now...

EDIT: Oh, hey, I have a backup of my disassembly... so I might try making GHZ backwards!
