Lotus II: R.E.C.S. | SEGA Genesis Full Soundtrack OST (Real Hardware)

This is the full soundtrack for Lotus II: R.E.C.S. on the SEGA Genesis. It was recorded from a real SEGA Genesis model 1 for the best audio quality. Despite being named Lotus II, it was actually a port of Lotus III from the Amiga, which had a really great soundtrack. As the Genesis version of the soundtrack was done by Sound Images, it's not surprising that it wasn't nearly as good as the original, but in the end I don't mind it. Also, BGM 2 was not from the Amiga version and instead was from another Genesis racing game sponsored by Nigel Mansell.

Thanks for this! Had this game as a child and just thought of the music as I was on a synth kick.

Love the first track, and especially the third track with that blues scale descent and "guitar" solo during a nice circle of fourths

If only the ending theme from Lotus (which many knows as the Top Gear theme) were used with this sound driver presets. I would love to hear it.

Como o Lotus II do Mega Drive é o Lotus III do amiga, o Lotus 1 e o Lotus II do amiga e lá toca a musica do top gear.

The system came out in 1988 and only really had to compete with the NES, it deserves some slack.
