Quick on the heels of news that SEGA and Wavemaster Entertainment have things in the pipeline for Sonic’s 20th Birthday celebrations, a number of websites across the internet have already begun advertising a Sonic Adventure Original Soundtrack 20th Anniversary Edition album.
Those who have been despirate to own a copy of this seminal soundtrack will be pleased, as the original Sonic Adventure “Digi-LOG Conversation” CD double album has been out of print for many years, and now fetches in excess of $150 on ebay auctions.
The album is tipped for a April 20th release this year in Japan, at the rather modest price of ¥2,400 ($30/£20). Those with keen eyes may have noticed this is currently tipped as a single CD release, and as no track list is available at present it is unknown what portion of the entire soundtrack will be included, along with any possibilities of remixed or reworked material.
Relieved you can now get an official copy of the soundtrack? Let us known in the comments section!
Props to Woun on SSMB and SoA at JunSenoue.com for the heads up!
Why release a Sonic Adventure soundtrack of all things? Unless… they’ve remade Sonic Adventure for Sonic’s 20th anniversary and this is the new soundtrack for it?
This games soundtrack is beast!
I might just pick this up.
This is exciting news. I have an SA soundtrack that is just the vocal tracks, it would be nice to have all the great background music from the levels. Hope they do this for SA 2 also.
*drools* yeeeeee, gotta have that, i do wonder if anything will be remixed on the CD????
Another note, i do wonder if Sega has at least anything planned (even miniscule) planed to celebrate 10 years of the wonderful hedgehog Shadow :3

Thanks Sega, this is a great present for us. ) This, as well as Crush 40 concert, are the best anniversary news at the moment. =)
Yes, yes and more yes.
Now I can listen to the consecutive interlinked tracks on the album seamlessly! And it’ll be nice get a genuine copy of it, but that doesn’t really matter all that much; I own the game, thus I own the soundtrack, thus I am entitled to an MP3 version of the OST release if I see fit.
Oh, and is anyone else wondering if they’ll do this for SA2’s Multi-Dimensional OST as well?
Hopefully it’ll be on iTunes like Sonic Colors’s album.
I think I have the official soundtrack ( I know it’s the SA one, but not sure if it’s legit).. its in a box somewhere..
Hope they include the NiGHTs pinball table theme this time around 🙂
Can you even fit everything that was on the original release, plus extras, on one disk? BTW, I want original demo tracks, like the one for Big’s theme that was in True Colors.
This is great news. Can’t wait for more info. 🙂
That’s great to hear. I was conned into buying a bootleg version of the soundtrack years ago. 🙁
Please, please let it be released in the UK!
Yes definately we need it in the UK please D:
Finally I can buy it officially. 😀
*dies from awesomeness*
Top five songs for me (that aren’t vocals)
5. Azure Blue World
4. Run through the Speed Highway
3. Be Cool, Be Wild and Be Groovy
2. Red Hot Skull
1. Mechanical Resonance
It would go to hear remixes. =D Let’s hope.
More hints to sonic adventure 3?? Time will tell!
Enough with the Sonic Adventure 3. Not needed and not happening.
The soundtrack looks interesting; I have the OST but I wonder what they’ll do with this new edition? New songs, remixes maybe even a small art booklet inside would be interesting.
