Sonic 3D Blast & Super Fantasy Zone?

Nice links you have there.

 

Just worked a second ago. That's really too uncanny to be less than at least a homage or inspiration.

 

Oh wow. There's a music similarity thread somewhere but this is just too close. also that whistle sound in the super fantasy zone one is horrible.

 

I'm sure somebody's posted this before.

This really didn't warrant its own thread, you could've just posted it in the "Other Knowledge" topic.

 

Reminds me more of a mix of Sonic and OutRun music.

 

This definitely has been posted before. I vividly remember reading about it in one of the other threads, most likely the music comparison topic.

 

I like this whistle. But yeah. Close. Who did the music?

That's all the research I feel like doing.

 

Jun Senoue did the arrangement on Sonic 3D Blast, either Naoki Kodaka, Shinichi Seya, or Nobuyuki Hara did the one on Super Fantasy Zone (there was a big album with all the Fantasy Zone music on it, and for some reason this was the only game that didn't list who did what on each track). I remember someone bringing it up with Jun during the IRC interview that SAGE had unofficially with him a few years back and I remember him saying that it was a homage to it. I don't remember the specific reason, but I do remember it being brought up.
