  1. Sonic Frontiers' original soundtrack, 'Stillness & Motion', has officially passed over 100 million streams as of September 2023. The announcement was made on SEGA Japan's official social media channels this morning. Tomoya Ohtani's eclectic masterpiece originally launched as a standalone soundtrack release back in late 2022 to coincide with the Sonic Frontiers game itself, and featured a whopping SIX discs worth of music covering open zone audio, Cyberspace stage BGMs and boss themes - the latter of which being the most popular, with 'Undefeatable' in particular racking up over 20 million listens on Spotify to date. Ohtani-san posted on social media this morning to thank fans who invested in the Stillness & Motion OST. "I'm ecstatic to announce that the Sonic Frontiers Original Soundtrack Stillness & Motion surpassed 100 million streams as of last September," he wrote. "I can't find the words to thank you enough." SEGA Japan announced that it would set a discount on the digital purchase of the Stillness & Motion soundtrack on iTunes for a limited time in celebration of the news, but at present this does not seem to apply to iTunes stores outside of Japan. We'll update if this is reflected in the West too. Original Post Content: View full story

  3. Video game composer Tommy Tallarico's contributions to the Sonic and the Black Knight soundtrack have been put under the microscope this week, as allegations surface that claim works credited to the Video Games Live frontman were originally composed by others within his studio. A small group of netizens credited for researching and documenting the work of one Todd Dennis, a composer at Tommy Tallarico Studios, helped bring a demo tape of Dennis' to light that featured music from a 1998 PC game 'Adrenix' - which bears a striking resemblance to Sonic and the Knight's "The Cauldron", a track solely credited to Tallarico in 2009. The new discovery was published by Twitter account 'Sonic Music Facts', which itself has chronicled similar familiarities in other tracks from the game that have also been attributed to Tallarico. After posting comparisons last April regarding 'Molten Mine' and 'Great Megalith' with 1996's Black Dawn (a game whose music credits only mention Todd Dennis), the social media account shared music from 'Adrenix', adding, "This song appeared in one of Todd Dennis' demo reels, confirming that he's responsible for the song. This means that Tommy Tallarico didn't compose ['The Cauldron'] either." Tallarico's name is listed as the sole music credit for three songs on the Sonic and the Black Knight soundtrack (with Jun Senoue and the SEGA Sound Team working with the musician on two of these for the arrangement). With the origins of 'The Cauldron' allegedly unveiled, Sonic Music Facts concludes, "with this, we can finally confirm Tommy Tallarico did not compose any of the songs he is credited for on Sonic and the Black Knight." The Sonic claims follow the publication of a YouTube video by HBomberguy in 2022 that similarly dissected Tallarico's career in meticulous detail. The musician has not responded to the video, and has generally not been seen in the public space since the failure of his pet project, the Intellivision Amico console.

  5. Looking for something to listen to ahead of Sonic Superstars' launch on Tuesday? Well, how about a new song from the game's soundtrack, created by a bunch of legendary SEGA composers? Yeah, we thought so! The Battle Mode Mix, shared above by SEGA, is a collection of music works that can be found within the new Battle Mode of Sonic's latest 2D adventure. From Jun Senoue's pumping robot customisation menu theme, to a surprising remix of Sonic Drift music by Yasuyuki Nagata... there's even a track by the legendary Takenobu Mitsuyoshi, best known for his vocal work on Daytona USA (and Sonic Mania!). Give it a listen, imagine you're building a deadly robot that will zap all others to smithereens, and get ready for Sonic Superstars' launch on October 17. You can read our (non-spoiler) review on this very website by clicking here.

  7. Been enjoying Sonic Frontiers: Final Horizon, but you're on your way to work now and can't get to your console to play some more? You can now pull up your favourite music streaming service and get lost in the new music from the expansion, courtesy of Tomoya Ohtani's remixed "Paths Revisited" OST. The album was announced last month with news of a staggered release - the streaming version of the OST launched yesterday, with a physical CD release releasing a little later on November 15. We've been playing the Final Horizon DLC (we will share our thoughts on that soon enough) but we can absolutely say that Ohtani's work here has once again hit the mark, with some incredible remixes of Cyberspace stages and rhythmic compositions that accompany the open zone gameplay of the four playable characters. It's great, and you should all listen to it. You can listen to the album on Spotify via the link / embed below, but it should also be available on Apple Music, as well as other good music streaming platforms.

  9. SEGA has released a new soundtrack teaser for the upcoming Sonic Superstars - this time focusing on a mix of BGM for fast-paced forest level, Speed Jungle. The music, presented in video form below, highlights the energetic Act 1 music (composed by Sonic series favourite Tee Lopes), followed by a mysterious and ambient track from Takahiro Kai (which we assume is the Amy-specific Act that has said to be included in this Zone) and finally the fast-rhythm techno sounds of Act 2 by Hidenori Shoji. We heard the Act 1 and 2 music throughout our time with the stage when playing the game at Gamescom last month, and it really suited the action of the stage. What do you think though? Let us know in the comments below! Sonic News Tips Credit: ShinyGems Original Post Content: Sounds great to me. View full story

  11. Sonic Frontiers' final expansion will come complete with a new collection of music tracks, and SEGA has released a preview to whet your appetite ahead of the Final Horizon update on September 28th. Check it out below! The above video includes a set of new Chapter Themes that will be added to the game once the DLC is released. Alongside the music is some key artwork of Amy, Knuckles and Tails all being challenged by the final mysteries of the Starfall Islands, and we suspect that each character will get their own associated Chapter Theme. Not long to wait now until the DLC - what do you think of the music? And are you hyped for the final story? Let us know in the comments below!

  13. Sonic Frontiers' Original Soundtrack is set to get an expansion release from October, including a total of 46 new tracks that covers music introduced in the game's free DLC packs. It will be called "Sonic Frontiers Expansion Soundtrack: Paths Revisited." Announced on social media, the official Sonic Japan notice states that the refreshed OST will debut on "distribution" services from October 2, while a full CD re-release will hit stores on November 15. No price has yet been revealed for the CD release, but we can only imagine it'll be at a bit of a premium. Look at the cover above. How cool is that!? Sonic News Tips Credit: ShinyGems Original Post Content: This will be interesting. The CD will be coming out the 15th of November, apparently, and will feature 46 tracks. View full story

  15. Six years ago, on 15 August, Sonic Mania launched and the world was (for a fleeting moment) a much happier place. To celebrate the occasion the game's composer, Tee Lopes, has once again shared a previously-unheard work that was originally intended for the credits sequence, but later scrapped. "Happy 6th anniversary to Sonic Mania, the game that changed the game," wrote Lopes on social media. "To celebrate, I give you the scrapped credits theme." As you can hear from the video below, it's a much jazzier outro track than the one that was eventually used in the final version of the game. No reason was given for why this was scrapped, but I think we can all agree that we're all better off for hearing this track. We especially like the sax! 2023-teelopes-mania-credits1.mp4 This recent share follows Lopes' posting of another unreleased track for Sonic Mania last week - that of an early version of the 'Stage Clear' jingle. It's great that we're hearing of all this now. What do you think of the track? Let us know!
  16. Tee Lopes, the musical maestro behind Sonic Mania's soundtrack (among many other amazing OSTs since) has shared an early version of one of the tracks intended for the 2017 Sonic platformer. The track is an "early 'Stage Clear jingle", Lopes reveals on social media, and could at one point have been the tune players would have heard upon completing a stage in Sonic Mania. In the end, as we all know, the final game used a "Teelopesy" rendition of the Sonic 3 & Knuckles 'Stage Clear' jingle instead. 2023-teelopes-maniamusic.mp4 All that said, it's really nice to hear alternative tracks like this. Like most menu-based tracks in Sonic Mania's soundtrack, it features the familiar leitmotif that became synonymous with the game. A shame it didn't get used in the end - but we imagine that, with SEGA's plan for Mania being a halfway-trip down memory lane, it was decided that using a more familiar jingle made more sense. What do you think of Tee's alternate track here? Let us know in the comments below!

  18. The mystery surrounding Sonic the Hedgehog 3's soundtrack - and Michael Jackson's involvement - has once again been thrown into the air thanks to a recent interview with Sonic 3 co-composer and Jackson's longtime collaborator Brad Buxer. Buxer spoke to Abbey Road Institute in Paris back in May and talked about his professional relationship with Michael Jackson. As part of that topic, he uses a Sonic 3 anecdote to illustrate how a lot of the work attributed to Jackson was developed by Buxer instead - what Buxer calls the 'blank slate' approach to their collaborations. The musician has previously been on record to state that Michael Jackson's work was included within the Sonic 3 cartridge - work that has long rumoured to be the main blocker in SEGA re-releasing the 1993 Mega Drive classic since the pop megastar's death in 2009. However this interview seems to be the strongest indicator yet of the pop megastar's involvement in the classic Mega Drive title. "[We had] the most harmonious musical relationship you could ever imagine," Buxer says, before recalling an anecdote about the origins of the song Stranger in Moscow which involved a cassette tape of the entire Sonic 3 soundtrack. Sonic 3's soundtrack has been a topic of huge debate for decades due to the well-known secret that Michael Jackson - arguably the biggest music star on the planet, especially in the 1990s - had some hand in its development. SEGA has never publicly confirmed or denied Jackson's involvement. Buxer's comments also come close to the release of Sonic Origins, a compilation release on modern consoles that includes a re-release of Sonic 3 & Knuckles for the first time since 2009. SEGA has also been keeping very quiet about the nature of the soundtrack included in this release - whether Buxer's compositions (largely attributed to Ice Cap, Launch Base and Carnival Night Zones) remain, or if they have been replaced. The Michael Jackson song 'Stranger in Moscow' is also interesting in this context because it is also heavily linked with the development of Sonic 3 thanks to the similar sound of the game's end credits theme. It would make sense that the song could have been born from an evolution of the Sonic 3 credits music, but Buxer does not make this connection in the interview. "I started playing the verse for Stranger in Moscow, and then I came up with the chorus on the spot," he said. "Michael fell in love with it... and in an hour and a half Stranger in Moscow was [written]. [Michael] had nothing in mind for that - nothing." He says that this was an example of the 'blank slate' method of working that he often applied when collaborating with the pop star. The above video is the meaty bit but the whole interview is on Abbey Road Institute's YouTube channel.

  20. Today's Sonic Official on YouTube confirmed a long-standing concern about Sonic 3's soundtrack in Sonic Origins. During the stream, Katie Chrzanowski, social media manager for SEGA, notes that the game will not have all its original tracks. Instead, the game will have new original-hardware adaptations of the songs composed by Jun Senoue. The comment from Chrzanowski comes at around the 36:00 mark in the video above: Sonic 3 has long had issues with re-releases due to music contributed by Michael Jackson and Brad Buxer. This includes Carnival Night Zone, Ice Cap Zone, Launch Base Zone, the Multiplayer menu, the Sonic 3 Act 1 boss music, and the Staff Roll. Unreleased beta versions of Sonic 3, as well as the 1997 Windows PC version of the game, used significantly different compositions in place of the tracks. While it's a shame that we won't be hearing the iconic sounds of Ice Cap once again, it's definitely encouraging that we'll be getting new versions of the alternate songs from Senoue, who contributed to the original soundtracks of both Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles. Though if you're really itching for those original sounds... probably a good idea to keep an eye out on the modding scene after it launches.
  21. Video game soundtrack label Data Discs have announced that their next release will be the score to the 1993 SEGA Megadrive / Genesis title Sonic Spinball. The soundtrack, composed by the SEGA Technical Institute team lead by Howard Drossin, sees this remastered cut taken from archival files and a Japanese Mega Drive console. The release will see three versions: 180g Frosted Clear with Translucent Blue Stripes (Limited Edition) 180g Translucent Blue 180g Classic Black The track list is as follows: A Side: A1. Logo A2. Title Screen A3. Introduction A4. Toxic Caves A5. Emerald Collected A6. Boss A7. Lava Powerhouse A8. Bonus Stage B Side: B1. The Machine B2. All Emeralds Collected B3. Showdown B4. Credits/Options B5. Lava Powerhouse (European Ver.) B6. Game Over Pre-orders will go live at 7pm BST / 2pm EDT / 11am PDT on Saturday, 9th of July, 2022, and shipping in August.

  22. Well, for anyone who’s ever wanted to listen to the Sonic 2 movie soundtrack through their dad’s vintage audio cassette tape player…now you can! Well, a few of you can. Enjoy the Ride Records is selling an extremely limited number of these cassette tapes through their website for just $14.99. If you want a copy, you’d best get on it, because only 250 copies are being sold, and they are already 50% sold out. You can buy it here. You can check out photos below. The Sonic 1 movie vinyl is also back in stock. It’s available in two colors, Tricolor SWIRL (Red, White and Blue) and Golden Ring. You can buy it here. You can check out photos below:
  23. SEGA has launched an album on Spotify (and no doubt, other music streaming services) for Sonic Frontiers. At present, only two tracks are available to listen to - a short version of theme track 'I'm Here', and a five-minute long track featuring the theme of Starfall Islands. Give it a listen below. Sonic Frontiers isn't due for release until November 2022, but already SEGA has taken the time to add a couple of songs from the game's soundtrack to streaming services. No doubt more tracks will be added over time - let us know what your opinion of the Starfall Islands theme is in the comments section below.
  24. There it is. I do hope it is okay to post this. Anyway, as said before, Stillness & Motion is the name of the soundtrack for Sonic Frontiers. What do you all think of this?
  25. Sonic Channel has revealed that Wavemaster will be releasing a Sonic Frontiers original soundtrack, titled "Stillness & Motion." The massive 6-disc set will include 150 songs from the game and a 40-page insert book with commentary. The physical CD was only announced for Japan; however, the digital album will be available internationally on major music services. Both will release December 8 (or December 7 according to the official Japanese Sonic Twitter account). The blog post notes that the game's main theme "I'm Here," composed by series mainstay Tomoya Ohtani and written/performed by Merry Kirk-Holmes (To Octavia), will be included on the album, though the game's other theme "Vandalize" by ONE OK ROCK was not explicitly mentioned (if it does not make it to the album, it's otherwise available on the band's new album "Luxury Disease"). The post estimates the price to launch at 8,000 yen (a little over $55 USD at time of writing). From what we've heard so far, Frontiers' melancholy tone is backed by subdued and atmospheric overworld music, while cyberspace stages such as Green Hill, Chemical Plant, and Sky Sanctuary invoke a style similar to that of Sonic Forces, complete with vocal elements. Sonic Frontiers is scheduled to release November 8, when we can finally stop relying on off-screen demo audio and enjoy the game's music properly. Thanks to "Dodger24848" and "MyEcho" for the news tip!
