  • Our live cover of "Casino Night Zone (1-Player)" from Sonic The Hedgehog 2, originally composed by Masato Nakamura. This arrangement by Patrick Bartley.
    Ahh, this song is one of our favorites in the Sonic franchise, as it sums up exactly the kind of nostalgia we truly feel: gambling away J-yen on the official J-MUSIC Discord :kirbylaugh: - no, not really (link in description). BUT ANYWAY, we've also been playing this song for a while now, and now we have both versions of Casino Night up on RUclips! There's something special about this song that evokes -- here it comes again -- a true melancholy emotion, but with the happiness of the blues and swing underneath. Besides sounding almost exactly like the Sinatra hit "All Of Me" for the first 6 bars, this special nostalgia-inducing song is the perfect vehicle for us to exemplify what we do best here in Pocket Band: play true authentic swing jazz music! Take a trip back to the good ol' days once again with swingin' solos from Pat on sax, Max on a very Satchmo-reverent trumpet solo, and Olin strumming away like Barney Kessel. Don't lose all your rings at the Robotnik slots!
    ==============================

    I'm a grown-ass woman who's been playing Sonic games for the past 30 years (since '93, aged 11) and has a half-sleeve Sonic the Hedgehog tattoo. This jazz cover makes me profoundly happy in a way I can't fully express. Thank you!
