It was definitely speculated to be the reason on here but I don't think we ever got official word. Sounds plausible, though.
The comment on swing notes is absolutely true. It's super obvious in the demo of the title theme song. Whenever the snare is meant to play a...
Not sure if that information is available anywhere. There's a chance even Masa himself might not remember the order. However, we do know that the...
They were MIDIs recorded to DATs. Masa gave an interview around the time the demos were released (only in Japanese) and even dropped the name of...
I've heard several people comparing competition select to MJ's "You Rock my World" which was released well after Sonic 3 and without Buxer's...
Competition select was IMO the best of the MJ tracks and one of the best tracks in the game. It screams early 90s New Jack Swing, has a great...
Wow - it was so cool to hear him playing the Sonic 3 credits version of Stranger in Moscow... this might be the closest thing to a demo version of...
I've thought about this for some time now. I grew up with BOTH the Genesis and PC tracks so there's no "new/shininess" factor for me: Carnival...
As pretty much everyone on here knows, he composed half of the Sonic CD JP soundtrack and IMO wrote some of the best tracks on there (Collision...
I mean... MJ also isn't in the S3 credits but he definitely worked on the soundtrack
Keep in mind that the whole Sonic 3 and MJ theory came about because someone thought Ice Cap Zone "sounded like" Smooth Criminal and the Sonic 3...
Did anyone ever notice that the chord progression in the Sonic CD (JP) title and Sonic 3 (standalone) is nearly identical? Even the bassline is...
Interesting! Probably a coincidence but you never really know... however the riff that's similar is not really particular to MJ's style IMO.
What part of Final Boss uses portions of S3 credits? I'm really curious now. I recall seeing an analysis that showed that Doomsday, Final Boss...
UNPOPULAR OPINION: The Sonic CD JP Redbook audio sounds totally out of place for a 16-bit game. Hearing a bunch of chaotic synth-funk on a...
I agree that this is a very likely scenario with all the new information - SEGA wanted to replace the Beta turd tracks with the "better" MJ...
After much research and study of the structure of these songs, I'm pretty sure Tomonori Sawada did the lion's share of the soundtrack, at the very...
Not everyone has always thought Jun is some mastermind genius. I've always believed he's a lousy composer and poor arranger. The bro is straight...
Unpopular opinion: Jun Senoue is an awful composer. Yeah, he's had a few decent tracks (which would be expected given he's composed literally 100s...
I think I may have another clue as to the whole MJ timeline. Buxer in his latest interview states: "We were in Moscow performing and he’s all...
