That and Mystic Cave go crazy, the robotnic theme at the final stage is hard too, the end theme is dope asf as well. I used to sit and play the music in the menu on a lot of Sega Genesis Games, they had dope as scores......Yessir the 90s
I was grabbing some booze before at a bottleshop, the dude at the counter was like "weird question, you seem the same age as me, do you like retro games?" and I'm like 'fuck yea bro. sonic, zelda, mario, pokemon, smash bros, metroid, etc.' was good.
Jeremy Seal Yea man. I've played them to death though lmao, most of my love is just nostalgia now. New games can have some really good stuff. When I was a kid I would unlock sound test on sonic 3 and knuckles, and then just listen to that.
this is what all the new sonics don't get...these older sonic games had FUNK as the core of the soundtrack.. the newer ones completely miss this and they don't feel "sonic-y" for me because of it.
The original creator of Sonic 1 & 2 music wanted more money for Sonic 3 music, as it took a lot of time to create the songs, but SEGA refused him - despite him making the best music in the entire series since Sonic 1 & 2 music is/are arguably the best.
@@OmegaRedFanOf course, but this was purely about the pay as he wasn't being paid much at all whilst he poured his heart and soul into it - hence why Sonic 1 & 2's music is generally loved by all.
MarcsLab Oh man it's like we can instantly travel back in time and grab those memories once again! Overjoyed! Sweet times then man! If only we knew:) ...if only we knew...
Aquatic ruin zone is probably my favorite in the entire soundtrack *listens to casino night zone Welp now we have a tie! *listens to mystic cave zone You know what I love every song in the soundtrack
My 2 faves are mystic cave zone and oil ocean. Mystic cave gives you that funky vibe and oil ocean gives you a touch of Arabic and Indian music mixed together Also I just noticed how I’m replying to a 4/yo comment
@@10k_kiji Nice! My faves are Casino Night, Hill Top and Metropolis. Casino Night sounds like you're stood in the middle of Las Vegas, Hill Top has a kinda Mid-western United States/Canadian feel and Metropolis has that industrial Grunge feel. BUT, Mystic Cave would be a very close second, along with Oil Ocean. And Emerald Hill. And, y'know what? They're all my favorite. Also I really like Wing Fortress' theme, it sounds very millitary.
Yes! Best level to play as 2nd player Tails because then you could hop on the vine-sliding-platform-things and mess up whoever was playing Sonic big time XD
tom flynn If Hill Top were real, I'd go camping there, except far, far away from the lava. The tone of the music resonates outdoor adventure or pioneer to me.
This entire soundtrack encompasses my mid-90s childhood in a nutshell. I don't know how many hours I spent playing Sonic games back then. Such good times
The music from the late 80's to early to mid 90's in video games was something special. I used to collect retro games then it got too expensive so I rely on Virtual Console and Steam these days but listening to these soundtracks bring back so many memories.
regularsharp Same way with chemical plant zone and that oil zone for me since I could only make it that far at 4 years old xD had to wait until I was 6 to beat it
for me, it was the very end, at 39:27 hearing sonic's old theme again at the end of the credits. that was really nostalgic to listen to this whole soundtrack again.
@@PKSkyler You know, I'm not real nostalgic for Sonic 1 music. Which is strange, because my copy of Sonic 1 is the one my parents bought me, packed in with my Sega Genesis, way back when. It specifically says "NOT FOR RESALE" on the cover art, so there's no mistake, it's the first Sonic game I played. I guess I just liked Sonic 2 better?
My first genesis game. I still remember going to a garage sale, my brother and I had never played Sonic before, and so the guy selling the system with the game hooked it up right there in the driveway for us to try. It's stayed one of my all-time favorite games since then.
@@Oysterblade84 "Political correctness" almost exclusively exists in western countries. The rest of the world couldn't be bothered, especially not Japan.
@@赤青白 But this game was 30 years ago, the world was a different beast back then to what it is today, even if Japanese devs don't give a monkeys about offending someone, once the game comes to western shores it can easily be modified to appease the community and cut out anything that might offend someone, just look at Streets of Rage 3 for reference. Of all the Disney films getting remakes, I reckon we will never see a Pochahontas remake on the basis that someone will find it offensive.
When nostalgia gives you a hug for 39 min. So many years spent on this Sonic in the 90s with my big brothers. I realize now how good was the sound designer, damn I even started to dance on some of them on my chair! Thankfully I can still play it on my ps4 🥰
Panthersman97 i played the game so many times i knew where they were. what i found the most annoying were the crabs in the metropolis zone, u never had room overhead to jump on them cuz the roof was so low
coltino99 I replayed a few years back. The most annoying part of the game is that endless jumping platform part near the end. They got friggen carried away on the part where you enter Robotnik's flying fortress.
I remember I was on the sixth emerald Ready to win... Omg 2 rings above I need! Almost there! I'm gonna win! _"OOH LOOK MINES!"_ _"TAILS NO!"_ **Hits** _"Lmao oops"_
Shadic The Hedgehog Tails was awesome in the classic games in every way EXCEPT for the special stage. "Tails, I know it's mating season, but the mine is NOT the place to do it".
I can't help but to agree. Next to Nintendo (which I Am a Nintendo Loyalist), Sega did give Nintendo a run for the money, not only in graphics and gameplay but catchy tunes that IMO out classed some Mario Games (SOME). lol Whats bad, is that I'll be around 60 years old and I'll be able to hum these tunes on Sonic 2. Every song here is catchy and can get you bopping your head to the beat. Chemical Plant is ..."probably" the best one, cause it's a Funky fast tuned song (song sounds like it comes from an 80's theme club song lol).- Can anybody actually Dance to this song? I could. My 2nd fav is Hill Top Zone, 3rd Oil Ocean (Egyption theme anybody?-freaken awesome.) And last but not least, Sky Chase Zone !
It's amazing how the quality in the sounds progressed as the series went on. Sonic 1 is VERY simple, Sonic 2's synths sound a little more sophisticated with a lot more going on in the background, and Sonic 3&K really figure out how to create full atmosphere and an entire world with every song.
25:14 Options theme for some reason instills confidence- like they knew the game was good when they had made it. A very memorable piece from childhood.
ndclub67 Yep. Sonic 2 is overrated. I mean, it's a very good game, but it's just considered the best by most people because it was sold more and therefore more people played it.
And ofc you know this? Haha. Played all 3 games when i was little, played all 3 games again yesterday. Sonic 2 i think was the best and most fun. Dont think you know everything
There are few VG soundtracks that are absolute perfection start to end, and even fewer on the Genesis. Sonic 2 is without a doubt the greatest, nothing else even comes close. These crazy tunes inspired by jazz and prog rock pushed the soundchip to its absolute limits, and the result is magic. TEN OUT OF FKING TEN.
bruh i use to rap to all these up to sonic 2 on dreamcast...i use to try to make lil love songs with sky chase...lol..memories that will go to the grave
The music back then was so well thought out for every stage !! Hearing these gives me goosebumps ! Takes me back to a time I think many of us long for today !!
+Marios Sklavenitis they sure did man. The music in Sonic 2 was a huge advancement on Sonic but both are really good. The Sega Saturn had an amazing Yamaha sound chip too but unfortunately hardly used as programmers were lazy and most music was streamed off the CDs. There is something real cool about the FM synths I agree.
As soon as I heard 'Emerald Hill Zone' (1Player version) back then, I *knew* that I was witnessing a gaming masterpiece being revealed. Unforgettable opening stage theme.

You guys should listen to Sonic 2 HD Alpha's version of this. It is badass!
❤❤💖💖
Love your profile pic!
Dude, that music made me cry 😭♥️
😀😀😀🤤😅😅😅😮😮😮😮🤑🤑🤑

The 16 bit era was flawless for game soundtracks. The original Sonic still remains number one for me. 19:17 Boss is legendary.
Nostalgia. The best. Such great bases and composure. Chip tune at it's finest
Sonic had come a long ways since I first played this game. Today, I still look at this game as one of the bestest games in the series.
Best Sega Genesis game ever.
Until S3&K

Yep. Sonic 2 is overrated. I mean, it's a very good game, but it's just considered the best by most people because it was sold more and therefore more people played it.
What do you mean by "lol bitch"?
And ofc you know this? Haha. Played all 3 games when i was little, played all 3 games again yesterday. Sonic 2 i think was the best and most fun. Dont think you know everything
Better soundtrack and overall funnier zones in Sonic 2.
There are few VG soundtracks that are absolute perfection start to end, and even fewer on the Genesis. Sonic 2 is without a doubt the greatest, nothing else even comes close. These crazy tunes inspired by jazz and prog rock pushed the soundchip to its absolute limits, and the result is magic.
TEN OUT OF FKING TEN.
Man, the best I was able to describe was like an industrial jazz 😅
The best Sonic game, and probably the best soundtrack out of the Sonic games too. The music of these games and Streets of Rage were just insane.
Aquatic Ruin Zone just keeps me relaxed every time I play this stage.
Agreed 100%
I remember just closing my eyes when it go to the Sky Chase level. Pure funk heaven 14:21
I know right. I love that track to death. So relaxing.
bruh i use to rap to all these up to sonic 2 on dreamcast...i use to try to make lil love songs with sky chase...lol..memories that will go to the grave
TheSquabs126 you're awesome
These comments are pure love and are making me smile. Wishing I was a kid again
Sad 😭
Casino Night (2 Players) makes you feel *like if you hit a jackpot*
agreed lol
My favorite track.
"Hit" in the past tense is still "hit".
THE GRAMMAR!!!
I'm actually spanish, sorry.
Dude this guy was on a roll. This is such an amazing soundtrack. You can tell he plays bass lol.
The music back then was so well thought out for every stage !! Hearing these gives me goosebumps ! Takes me back to a time I think many of us long for today !!
Classic, critically-acclaimed to this day. It has aged brilliantly and holds up just as strong.
12:37 - Metropolis Zone
best song fucking ever!!!!!
God did Yamaha make some good fuckin sounding synthesizers. Cant believe this is still synthesis. sounds like a modern edm song
+Marios Sklavenitis they sure did man. The music in Sonic 2 was a huge advancement on Sonic but both are really good. The Sega Saturn had an amazing Yamaha sound chip too but unfortunately hardly used as programmers were lazy and most music was streamed off the CDs. There is something real cool about the FM synths I agree.
Late 80s and early 90s... the golden age of the synth for me.
Nostalgia really hits me hard with this game in particular. No other game hits me like this.
19:18 one of the greatest boss levels songs ever.
wow... how can every track be amazing!! 👏🏼
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I felt untouchable in The Chemical Plant Zone. The music made me feel like I had to speed run.
GOD this brings back soooo many memories ...i remember when i was in primary school and i always had time to play .... now i have none
This has to be my favourite game soundtrack of all time! I grew up with this gem, and still love the game and music 😁🎵🎶
Hey there, I couldn't help but notice your profile and wanted to say hello. How has your day been so far?
As soon as I heard 'Emerald Hill Zone' (1Player version) back then, I *knew* that I was witnessing a gaming masterpiece being revealed. Unforgettable opening stage theme.
7:18 Hill Top always made me feel like I was in Canada or something.
+intigfx FUCK this made me laugh so much
Half my early childhood in a single vid
Brings back the good ol' days! I love these tunes!
The only Sonic game I ever played on a real Genesis. A masterpiece.
Yoo mystic cave goes hard af. And oil ocean is Egyptian af, god I love it all..so many great memories and feels!
sonic 2 probably has the best sega genesis soundtrack.
nah i reckon streets of rage does
***** Yes! Streets of rage killed it!
All the Yuzo Koshiro works comes first, but Sonic is my second favorite OST.

The songs of those games were remarkable!
A shame the games after Sonic 2 had a different composer,
Sonic 1 & 2 had the best music of almost any classic game..
I hope the composer knows just how much this soundtrack is loved and adored by so many players around the world.
Chemical Plant Zone goes so hard🔥🔥
The love i have for this games and tracks :) always reminds me of simpler times and less stressful times :D miss the 90's

Claudio Zamorano
Thank you for listing the times.

the first sonic will always have a special place, it was my first console and game of my very own but I think I like this soundtrack better.
Both Metropolis Zone & Mystic Cave is slept on 🔥 📛 👨🚒
Wish i could go back to the 90s and stay there.
Chemical Plant Zone was always my fave soundtrack. I just used to sit there sometimes and listen to it lol
Man i miss cassino night, aquatic ruin and oil ocean, best stage ever
Do you miss Oil Ocean? lol i hated that one.
+Ivan Caroselli same

Ivan Caroselli I never beat that boss Always Made me lose Rings I never made it pass so this is why I made it Pass To Wfz(wing fortress zone) Good but I have my Ways
Ivan Caroselli This was a meaningless Thing i typed
Sky Chase Zone Music is so fantastic.
