No Rape Advice from this Sonic.
The first albums of 2007 are here:
Sonic the Hedgehog Original Sound Track
Sonic the Hedgehog Vocal Traxx Several Wills
These are from the "Sonic the Hedgehog" game for Xbox 360 and PS3. Heard not so great things about the game itself, but the music is great! VGM trivia fans take note, Takahito Eguchi of FFX-2 fame composed a few tracks on this album.
Note: The artists on the "Several Wills" album are labeled as they are in the booklet, even though some of the same songs are on the OST, they are credited a bit differently.

I was expecting the usual crappy "Sonic next generation tunes", but judging from the track i'im listening (DUSTY DESERT ~QUICKSAND~) this is great stuff indeed. Thanks!

I, too, wasn't such a fan of the techno-esque soundtracks. Thanks for the release!
comment #3
Nice! I was looking forward to this. Now I can delete the gamerip. Thanks!

It's strange that the Akon 06 remixes of Sweet Sweet Sweet by Dreams Come True (originally from Sonic the Hedgehog 2) aren't anywhere in sight here. Is there a separate single or something?

Huzzah! I need scans of the album art though.

after hearing the trailer, i dreamed of the day this OST would be out
comment #7
Eguchi? Is Noriko Matsueda somewhere around the corner? Them two never compose alone!

Noriko Matsueda's last work with Takahito Eguchi, the Final Fantasy X-2 Piano Collection, was also the work in which she bowed out of the music industry. According to Shimomura, she has retired. Eguchi's still going, though. He's worked in a few animes since FFX-2 and clearly makes his VGM return here. I always found his electronic side (e.g. Racing Lagoon) to be stronger than his orchestral side (e.g. 1000 Words and its orchestrations). Pity it doesn't show here.

Thanks a lot for the release, Sonic forever! XD
*Sonic Team please return Sonic to the place he deserves ; )

FFX-2 has got to be the worst Final Fantasy soundtrack of all time, and one of the worst game soundtracks too. But, Sonic always had fairly catchy tunes, so I guess I'll have to see how Takahito deals with this one.

Apparently, someone never heard the Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex game OST...

Yes, it was said that there were some copyright issues or something so the Japanese version was released in a Dreams Come True band single.

We can make it if we all stick together. Yeah baby!

I must say, that's one grand final boss track.

Man, I wish they made a karaoke version of His World. The lyrics just ruin the awesome tune.
