Sonic Adventure's OST really did dictate how music in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise would go from here, and I 100% approve of this direction! Here's hoping you'll eventually get to the rest of the series... But first, I'm going to push Pizza Tower to the top so it'll be in the next round of voting! Hopefully this still counts for upvoting OSTs.

There is a very specific genre of music that isn't made anymore that is "Japanese lyrics translated directly into english with no attempt to alter for english rhyme scheme and sung by a small time struggling performer so it sounds like the singer is making it up as they go along" that was everywhere in the late 80's to the early 2000's and the pinnacle of that genre is Dreamcast era Sonic.

[@bigboymaggotratt7262]

[@FSAPOJake]

I made it to the first hour of this stream, and got a chance to stop by for a half hour or so about 3 and a half hours in. 1 - This stream was lots of fun. Definitely my favorite one of your's I've been to so far. 2 - I was obsessed with Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 as a kid, and have been listening to their OSTs ever since, for over 20 years. I didn't think you would be able to pick out or explain anything that would be new to me or that I didn't already notice. I was wrong. Even for the short amount of time I was on I still learned a bunch about lots of these songs. I look forward to catching what I missed yesterday!

[@paris-1911]

I hope this helps encourage the Sonic CD love - the game’s Japanese soundtrack is phenomenal. You should definitely give it a listen, it’s pure 90s funk and it’s awesome.

[@DubiousDepthsRadio]

[@Sparktron87]

You have no idea how pumped I am to see that you’re covering this OST! SA1 has one of the best and most diverse soundtracks in gaming, as unlike its sequel which bases its music on the characters with location coming 2nd, SA1 bases the music on purely just the location. It builds an awesome atmosphere that keeps me coming back to listen to this OST, along with cementing it as my number 1 Sonic game.

[@Newhouse56]

Sonic Adventure is one of my favorite games, and I think it’s soundtrack is part of the reason it hooked me as much as it did as a child.

[@trenton9]

Sonic Adventure sports one of my all-time favorite game soundtracks too. And its tracks are impressively varied. Sonic games had long had good soundtracks up to that point, but I loved how SA1 brought that legacy into the Dreamcast age. SEGA generally knew how to pull together great music in its heyday, and I'm glad to see the SONIC franchise carry the torch.

[@captainmagmapyro5531]

This is my favorite soundtrack of all time for any video game. I love seeing others appreciate it!

[@PhirePhlame]

The hall of mirrors where Fakery Way plays is a really neat concept. Amy's whole gameplay is being chased by an indestructible robot, and that section of Twinkle Park is one that only she can access. There's one particular room in which the camerawork tries to screw you over, by focusing on the mirror wall's _reflection_ of you (angled in such a way that it seems to be focused on the real you as normal) as you get chased down that particular corridor full of trap doors.

[@5Chr5ome5]

the camerawork always tries to screw you over in sonic games 💀

[@ConkertheSquerfatchi]

i almost fell for that TWICE.

[@PhirePhlame]

"We don't talk about Sonic Spinball" No, let's talk about Sonic Spinball! Because that options theme, as a composition, is solid _at worst!_ Where they dropped the ball was in the implementation of the sounds used to play it. There's fanmade recreations which fix that issue.

[@321cheeseman]

Plus, it's really the only track in the game that's even remotely questionable. Toxic Caves and Lava Powerhouse in parituclar are amazing.

[@Incompetent_Hero]

Yeah I had to call it out, the game had a great soundtrack, but they chose the absolute worst sounds to use for the options. I would normally just blame the chipset for, but the rest of the game sounds fine so it's a really baffling decision

[@Kumaclaws]

Like most genesis games, Spinball’s soundtrack would be great if the soundchip didn’t sound like a 1998 Macintosh in a dishwasher

[@EuroMIX2]

Could you link to what you'd consider to be a better fan recreation of the song? I'm interested in hearing them.

[@Jamesthe1]

It's hard for me to pick a favorite track in Sonic Adventure. Skydeck A Go! Go!, Bad Taste Aquarium, Crazy Robo, and Crank the Heat Up!! are very difficult contenders. Awesome to see you analyze the whole soundtrack man!

The most hilarious Verse in My Sweet Passion, "This thing looks so cute, I had to shave it" lol

[@MustacheDLuffy]

@@blivveries Then what about the shaving part

[@Kumaclaws]

⁠​⁠​⁠@@MustacheDLuffy it’s basically saying that Amy wants to be cute for Sonic. Since the myth says that the Sphinx had a coat so beautiful that it made other cats jealous, she shaves it so she can have its coat instead We also get this with the lyric “I won’t mind painting myself blue for you”, she’s listing ways she’d change her appearance for Sonic’s attention

[@ajclarke9189]

Yes! Thank you for saying that! I’ve always thought the reverb on that track takes it to a whole other level. It’s just the right amount to create the “open sky” atmosphere, but the arrangement is spread out enough tonally so it doesn’t sound muddy… I also love the guitar dive-bomb sounds on “General Offensive” for giving off that same vibe.
