Jun Senoue is a man who needs little introduction. He’s had his hands in the Sonic pie since way back when, working alongside others such as Howard Drossin on the Sonic the Hedgehog 3 soundtrack. Mr Senoue really stepped into the spotlight with the launch of Sonic Adventure back in 1999, when Jun’s band Crush 40, fronted by Johnny Gioeli, blew most of the community away with its blistering soundtrack of fast-paced rock and epic power anthems. He’s just as awesome in real life too!
Well as most of you know Jun has been busy then, and not just with Sonic stuff. “The Works“ is a selection of tracks from other games such as the NASCAR and Daytona USA racing titles, along with music from the only-released-in-Japan titles, Managing Baseball Team Game / Managing J-League Football Team Game. Those of you who are fans of Ted Poley and Eric Martin will be pleased to know they both feature heavily on the album providing more awesome-sauce vocals.
Anyway, for a limited time Jun Senoue will be personally autographing copies of the soundtrack, which can be purchased on the official Jun Senoue fansite for the meagre price of $30 plus a small postage charge (works out at about £22 in total for UK peoples). Not bad eh? It also looks like Jun will be doing a similar thing with the Best of Crush 40 album “Super Sonic Songs” that will be released next month. The full track listings for both of the albums are listed on the website should you wish to examine them before purchase.
Head over to the Official Jun Senoue Site and follow the instructions to buy
If you’re feeling a little tight fisted, or you simply haven’t got enough pocket money to blow on a copy, then don’t fret! There will be a chance to win yourself a copy of the album over the SEGASonic:Radio Project 24 livecast on the 15th of November! Keep your eyes peeled for more info!
Props to Martin aka SOA, webmaster of junsenoue.com, for helping sort out this amazing offer for us lucky, lucky fans!
Didn’t know his talent expanded outside the Sonic world!
Daytona had a nice soundtrack 🙂
…….perfect
this guy is awesome. he is my most favourite in the sonic crew today.
*drools*YES YES YES
@Eggman123: Saying he’s your favourite of ‘the Sonic crew today’ is kinda funny – we’ve been working together since Sonic 3!
Sorry, but a certain piece of information on here is dreadfully wrong. There are NO tracks on this CD that feature the vocal talents of Tony Harnell. I believe you meant to say Ted Poley, who has quite a few singing roles across the CD.
Please fix this as soon as possible.
T: Fixed. Not really dreadfully wrong though is it? Just getting my Ted’s and Tony’s in a twist.
