New collaboration coming your way! This one was the product of a fun idea that Jonny and I came up with while we were initially chatting over what song we'd like to collaborate on, and the idea of doing a double collaboration with the two acts of Hydrocity Zone sounded like a fantastic idea! I took a slower funky approach (like Act 1), and Jonny tore up Act 2 in his video, which is probably the best metal collaboration I've ever played on. Seriously, his version is great!

If you'd like more info on the conception of the song, I have that written in the description of the video! :)

As for future happenings, I'm headed out on a week-long trip to the East Coast this week, and I'm not bringing my laptop! I'll still have intermittent access to my computer, but the purpose of this trip is to relax and recharge. I've been working hard on the Undertale Real Book, and I'm planning to finish up the preliminary recording of the backing tracks before I leave. Once that's done, I'll spend time editing the backing tracks and sheet music, and then we'll be ready for our first test print! Super exciting!

This song has been on my to-do list for a long time (many Sonic songs have), but I guess I just never sat down and committed to doing it! Jonny messaged me a few months ago and asked if I’d be interested in doing a collab! It took us a while to get something sorted out, but we eventually ended up deciding on doing both Acts of Hydrocity Zone from Sonic Mania, with the first being a bit more slow and funky and the second act being fast and crazy! I absolutely love how Jonny’s version turned out on his channel, you can check it out here! As for this arrangement, I can’t think of any one particularly standout influences on this one. My Discover Weekly playlist on Spotify turned me onto a few tunes from the Funky Knuckles, and in hindsight, that groove in C minor right after the drum solo intro reminds me a lot of Jacob Collier’s Savior! This was arranged right around the time I got my hands on the bari, so I really wanted to challenge myself and get a good bari solo on this song! In the past, I’ve had a hard time soloing on bari, just because the range is a bit low for my liking - I essentially have to stay in the range above the octave key split to be coherent with my ideas. However, I think I managed to break that tendency a bit with this one, as I’m particularly happy with the solo! While recording for Jonny’s version of this track, I thought it was hilarious that Jonny managed to take my opening lick from the bari solo and use it in his own stuff… brilliance, right there. Hope you guys enjoy this one! And don’t forget to check out Jonny’s music as well, he is an incredible player, and has built a great community of GaMetal fans! ♫ “Hydrocity Zone" from “Sonic Mania" & "Sonic 3" composed by SEGA Sound Team SOCIAL MEDIA: 🐦 Twitter • • • https://twitter.com/insanerainmusic 📘 Facebook • • • https://www.facebook.com/Insaneintherainmusic 📷 Instagram • • • https://instagram.com/insaneintherainmusic ❤️ Patreon • • • http://bit.ly/supportinsane ⚙️ Gear • • • https://www.amazon.com/shop/insaneintherainmusic 🔊 Distrokid VIP Link • • • http://distrokid.com/vip/insane
