I'm not sure if anyone's gonna agree with me on this, but I firmly believe this game did a pretty poor job at enhancing the original's soundtrack.
Yeah, I appreciate the thought that went into making this sound more like the original game's OST, but they went way too far in trying to reach that goal. Most of the original melodies are either partially drowned out by other sounds, modified or done away with entirely (like with Aqua Qua, which is basically just Dreaming Tomorrow 2). It's a shame really, because I liked the original's new Shop and Boss themes and wanted to hear them expanded upon, but the composers don't seem to agree.
Not only that, the soundtrack as a whole feels a lot more homogenized. The fact the original was working with much stricter limitations in mind let the music for each of the stages feel a lot more distinct from each other than in here. Cosmic Dance doesn't really have of the chaotic, hyper energy the original's Sbardian track had. I personally believe arrangements like these run into the trap of touching tracks up a little bit here and there to "be original while still being relatable" but end up falling into auditory uncanny valley instead.
Only reason I'm saying this is because other people seem to have enjoyed this soundtrack a lot and it makes me wonder if I just have some kind of problem or whatever. Either way I massively respect the composers' efforts (even if I didn't enjoy what they made all that much) and the fact Fantasy Zone is beloved enough to get this game an official remake warms my heart.
The more I listen to this soundtrack the less I agree with you. While some of the songs did lose their original identity (like Fly High or the shop theme) to some extent, or replaced completely (Su-Ki-Da, Aqua Qua, etc.), those really are the only songs I have a problem with. Songs like Opa-Marimba or Heating Wave does an excellent job of expanding the original with a more FZ1 like composition while still feeling true to the originals ("the be original while still being relatable" thing you mentioned, except it actually worked with these songs), and the aforementioned songs that I had a problem with aren't necessarily bad. I even like some of them over the originals.
I do agree with your points to some extent, it's just that not all of the songs fit into the auditory uncanny valley and many of them are still acceptable or outright better. While this game's soundtrack might not be perfect, just because a handful of songs are bad doesn't mean all of them are.
peak ost, heating wave is my favorite track out of all (maybe cosmic dance too, it' starting to grow on me)
91/91. PERFECT SCORE

Yeah, I agree. The soundtrack by itself is pretty good, but they made it so it sound like the first one. But they did it too much and it just felt like a remixed version of the first rather than the second.
