Sonic's Music Genre

[Baba O'Reily]

I must give MEGAPROPS to JSRF's soundtrack. Not that it would be hard to mess up with the game's soundtrack... But it's just so damn awesome.

[Zeta]

Yeah, I wouldn't mind Sonic having a JSR/F soundtrack in the next game.

In fact, I've sort of been wanting a playlist of songs in a Sonic game like JSR instead of just one per stage. I mean, I suppose there should be one per stage for tradition, but I'd like a radio option that would let you listen to 12 or so other tracks that'd work for any level in the game.

[HyperFox]

JSRF is a pretty flawless game anyways, so I'm not surprised it has a flawless soundtrack.

[Timestones]

And that lesson would be...?

That SegaSonic doesn't express himself in a coherent manner?

But if a tune works for every level in the game, it can't be very atmospheric. Atmosphere can be a major factor in how a platformer plays, especially one with such a broad range of environments. You'd be hard pressed to find a tune that flows from lush jungle to apocalyptic space station.

[Locit]

Yeah, but all of the levels in JSR were city centered environments. There were no lush jungles or apocalyptic space stations, and generally all the songs did a very good job of flowing to fit any level.

Doesn't that just validate Ritz's position?

Which I believe to be a true/correct one, if it matters.

And that lesson would be...?

That SegaSonic doesn't express himself in a coherent manner?

And I lost to him on Survivor?

Ritz point is very valid, plus would you really want to be shuffling through different tracks while running at top speed.

[SegaSonic]

And that lesson would be...?

The atmosphere!!! wow!!

Old Sonic games had this type of rhythm that made you say ; Oh! Thats a Sonic game! Like that darn Defcon Zero Song I posted.
