I recently started listening to the Sonic Forces soundtrack to and why do they think forcing Gen/MD sounding music is beyond me. Sonic Mania has proven that needs to be over! This Sonic 4-ism of the music needs to end. They are going for unnecessary nostalgia points when in truth, those sounds were only cutting edge FOR ITS TIME. It sounds like garbage, especially those timpanis in Egg Dragoon Mk. II. They sounded ok and convincing in crappy 80s/90s CRT tv mono speakers, but not now.

Also, I noticed someone mentioned Yellow Magic Orchestra: Sega actually used one of their songs (Rydeen) in Super Locomotive (1982).

I think Sonic Runners has one of my favorite soundtracks in Sonic games to be honest. Even though' if it sounds very like "anime-ish" but I don't think that's really a problem... right?

Sonic Runners' soundtrack is my favorite Sonic soundtrack by far.
It's just a shame it was used for a free to play mobile game, but the Runners Music Mod for Sonic Lost World does this ost justice. (assuming you like playing lost world, of course)
