Someone in this thread mentioned that ERZ(both acts) suffers from a lack of a real guitar now, and I want to echo that. I think a real guitar is exactly what it needs, as there's just a somewhat hollow feeling in the current instrumentation. I'm not a musical genius I can't really describe it any other way.
Something I'm surprised no one has brought up are the Special Stages:
I *really* miss the old Mystic Realm themes, especially in how they were remixed for the Music Remade soundtrack. In that, Magma Caves was by far my favorite song in the soundtrack, but now it's probably the most forgettable, to the extent that I went and copypasted it into 2.2's vanilla music file so I could have something I was happier with.
Egg Satellite is an entirely different vibe altogether, and while I actually like it quite a lot, I still preferred when it used Mystic Realm Zone's theme, especially Cobalt's remix of it. I liked the more triumphant feeling of racing against the clock yet being cheered on by the hopeful sound of the music to finally get that last emerald.
Toxic Plateau, though, OH BOY. This one is an underrated banger from start to finish, and is definitely a star in the new soundtrack. I jam out to this one all the time. The guitar line is just so energetic and rocks out like nobody's business, it's stellar.
tl;dr it's ok i guess
