I also have 3 things to say.

1. The Magician's hat is upturned and tattered, implying it may be deserted.
2. Maybe the Magician's been outcast to a wasteland and Rayman's trying to find him because he holds clues to a mystery in the plot.
3. RayFan get on the IRC.

About the prievous music discussion: I want Eric Chevalier back definitely! I was surprised how much worse ROs soundtrack was than BG&E track (which was totally amazing). Christophe Heral can make better music in BG&E than in Rayman, so the best woud be if they take Chevalier back and let him compose musics for future Rayman games and let Heral compose the ones for future BG&E games.

I don't know how well it would turn out if it were only Chevalier working on the music, since the music he did for Rayman 2 was very simplistic and light, and in a sidescroller you need bigger, more prominent music to engage the player more.

This makes me want the original project more and more.

Thanks for the idea, Haru!


And, I would really love to have Chevalier return.

No, just no. I have three things to say here:
  1. Andrew is his Cousin, not his brother.
  2. Andrew's hat is blue and red, not purple.
  3. This is a ridiculous speculation. Do you honestly think they're going to dig up material from an extremely non-canon children's educational game? Mind you the idea would be neat in some prospect, but it's never, ever going to happen like that.

Okey doke calm your farm just trying to piece things together. Wouldn't want the magician to screw them over twice :?

If you want also Rayman 4 prototype to be released, then youre welcome to my team Rulez! :D (Write on my R4BB thread or send private message if you accept)

Eric Chevalier composed R4 prototype music? I didnt knew that before, but now i believe it. The music was good enough to be his masterpiece (Funky Stealths were incredible) and there also was some R2 music.

It was on his old site, which doesn't seem to be online anymore. Rayman 4 was only listed under "trailers" though, so he probably only composed the music for the first trailer(s).

I don't think any of the prototype music posted on RayTunes was composed by Eric Chevalier, though the Funky Stealth tracks definitely sound like Eric Chevalier's style in some parts.
The only RRR thing we know of composed by Eric Chevalier is the Invasion trailer and/or the first bit of the War of the Worlds trailer.
It's a shame, because both of those trailers had better music (and everything else too) than what we got in the end.

Rabbids are cool shut up >:V

Did anyone see about the Wii U controller being redesigned and how somebody from Traveller's Tales snuck a photo of it? Google "wii u traveller's tales" and see for yourself; that should give you a good idea on how old this trailer even is.

As long as the rabbids stay in the exclusive level where they belong, I'm cool with it.

Exactly. Shouldn't the ''proud'' be a giveaway?

How is R2's music simplistic? It's got so many different layers you can't even name some of the instruments playing at some times. Also, he uses what seems to be an entire orchestra of instruments to fill in the parts they do. Also, some of the melodies are quite complex.

I'm not sure, troll user, I mean, the rabbids are okay if it's only one level, and it's a pretty well designed fall-themed level!! :mryellow:

I was under the impression that the game’s entire soundtrack was synthesised.

Whoa, it looks definitely better than the earlier model. I'll be aware to the E3 2012 conference from Nintendo.
