So the Japenese soundtrack wins, but don’t worry, I Still like the United States soundtrack, but the JP soundtrack suits my musical tastes more. In this video I show my point of view as a fan of Sonic CD JP soundtrack about some of the most important differences between Naofumi Hataya and Masafumi Oga. So overall, I like both soundtracks, but In the end, the points are… Finally the US final boss theme is just a more intense version of the regular boss theme so you can guess who gets the point there. The regular boss theme is better in JP because it is more enjoyable to hear. MM is JP for present and good future because they suit the level more, but bad future is more enjoyable to hear in US. SS is JP for all three because US is boring. WW is US for all three because JP is boring. The good future is great for both soundtracks but US contains lyrics that sound to me like “share your (I’m not gonna say it because Its innapropriate, but is offensive to boys, including me).” The bad future goes to the JP because the US is just the good future with the lyrics taken out. QQ is a mine, which the JP present does good at, but liking Rock music more, I have to prefer US. TT bad future is polluted, which again JP failed to provide the correct atmosphere. TT good future has been turned into a power plant, which both soundtracks do a good job of fitting. TT Present US has a funky beat and cool groove, but has nothing to do with being underwater, while the ancient, calm, and beautiful JP song does suit one. Listen to Sonic CD JP OST, a playlist curated by Nexus on desktop and mobile. CC is Funky and bouncy and Techno style in JP, which suits a carnival while US is Heavy Metal, which is my favorite genre of music, but does not suit the level except bad future where JP failed to provide the message that you screwed up. Personally, I think the JP is better for all except bad future, where JP is too happy, but US is more depressing and atmospheric. PP is more tropical amd suitable for the level in the US, but more energetic and kind of tropical in the JP. The past music is the same for both soundtracks (probably because they’re in a different format then the other songs.) The levels are Palmtree Panic (PP), Collision Chaos (CC), Tidal Tempest (TT), Quartz Quadrant (QQ), Wacky Workbench (WW), Stardust Speedway (SS), and Metallic Madness (MM). Now before i get into this, I want to say each level has four timezones, past, present, good future, and bad future. The 2011 remaster comes with the option to choose which one you want, but which one do I prefer? Honestly I like both a lot, so I can’t judge them easily, but let’s look at some things I like about each. There were two different soundtracks, one for Japenese releases and one for US releases. But if you played this game you would know one thing. Nilsen for pointing out the tribute album.Ah, Sonic CD, released in 1994 for the Sega CD, but rereleased in 2011 for PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3. That said, Spencer Nilsen did a hell of a job and frankly, I like both versions equally. ![]() I gotta say, I was turned off to the idea of Sonic CD being redone as a kid, and really, it probably didn’t need to be done. It also sounded a lot like Genesis FM….I wonder if they used some of those types of keyboards for that track. ![]() And the US version of Collision Chaos bad future totally sounded like it was channeling early 80’s post-apocalyptic sci-fi flicks. The Japanese tracks sounded like they were really inspired by Michael Jackson’s Dangerous. ![]() I listened to the whole damn thing and as soon as it was done I started it over from the beginning. So I look at my phone and it’s in the middle of downloading Spencer Nilsen….”What the heck, I already listened to this, why is it down……Oh what the HELL, SONIC CD WITH NILSEN?!?! OH HELL YES!” If I'm whistling a tune from Sonic CD, it's more likely to be one from the JP/EU soundtrack due to the more catchy and varied nature of the songs (I think that the songs of the US soundtrack are a bit too generic at times and are therefore not as good as the 90s sounding music of the JP/EU Soundtrack). I’m getting ready for work this morning about 4am, and I thought to myself, “let’s see if VGMpire has a new episode today”. While it was released after Sonic the Hedgehog 2, the games were developed in tandem, and as a result, have some notable differences between them the. ![]()
