The website doesn't have new map music -- you posted the WII version, which sounds slightly different. The music on the website is identical to the one from the first episode's 360 and PS3 counterparts.
Sorry, I thought I fixed it. Either way, the instrumentation does not feature Episode I's infamous cat synths and the bass is a lot better too.
I guess that's some progress in the right direction, yeah?

I tried to rip the audio from the site since it's allegedly from Episode II. It turns out Sega has found a new way to prevent any leaks for this episode. Their solution? Give the track an audio delay that plays it twice, but at different times!
Here's an MP3 in case anyone wants it:

Ripped using a SWF decompiler. That is all I'm going to provide, but enjoy the track, even though it's in mono.
That instrument in the lead still sounds annoying... but seeing as this is a song that Ep. I and Ep. II share, I don't think we can use it as a guage for the rest of the game's soundtrack.
It's basically recreating the previous map screen noises with a less electronic cat death soundfont. Though used in that way it still sounds a bit squeaky, the actual level tunes sound far more new and non-horrible from the few snatches I have heard.

Yes, I also have that feeling. I dig that bass, it sound so Genesis for me. By the way, that bass make that lead even more bearable, it gives the song a new feeling! Much more enjoyable.
It's good that they're using that bass too, because of the nature of the "instrument", it makes each note change in the bass more noticable, which is good as Sonic songs tend to have very complex and fun bass lines!
I will give it to SEGA, they do know how to get my interest up when it comes to story.
I have a LOT of theories regarding the purpose of Lost Labyrinth and Mad Gear, and I will accept that I was wrong when I thought that it wasn't Little Planet, great to see the reason of Metal Sonic showing up though.
And I think I can see Lava in the Episode 2's level map. But then again I can also see a moustache, so I don't think it's lava.

It's 100x better than the soundfont, I think.
