What if I revealed to you (for those new to my channel) that I adore Senoue's "Sonic 4 style" music? With my Press Factory Act 1 cover, I do not intend to render Senoue's version obsolete, nor do I wish to exalt myself conceitedly. Indeed, specific attributes of the cover couldn't parallel Senoue's, such as how he implemented the FM guitars filled with higher frequencies but do not sound ear-piercing (unlike my previous attempts at recreating them). Instead, consider this a nod to Senoue's continuous efforts in either stylistic direction he chooses. By listening to his work in Sonic 4 Episode II and Sonic Superstars, he undoubtedly has been analyzing Cube Corporation's (Masanori Hikichi) contributions to the Sonic 3 & Knuckles soundtrack (Flying Battery, Death Egg, all boss themes, Azure Lake, Sandopolis, etc.). Despite the unequivocal Cube influence, the chosen FM patches here reflect Senoue's 3D Blast programming style more. Thank you for reading the description, and now watch the .gif concert unfold!

Disclaimer: this indeed follows the YM2612 soundchip limitations. The echo/delay is somewhat faux; it was achieved by exploiting the gaps in the transcription. "Dual DAC samples" were created by recording two samples simultaneously (Sonic 3's technique).
