Data Discs is retuning to the world of Sonic the Hedgehog soundtracks with an impressive 3XLP release of Sonic the Hedgehog CD. Available to pre-order now and shipping September 2019, the release will feature the original Japanese score composed by Naofumi Hataya and Masfumi Ogata, newly remastered. The release will present the soundtrack in the game’s time zones, meaning “present”, “good future”, “past” and “bad future” will all be lumped together. The release will be accompanied by three double-sided art prints, liner notes from Naofumi Hataya, and a bespoke etching design on Side F of the soundtrack. There will also be a download code for lossy and lossless digital versions of the soundtrack. The release will be in three editions: 180g Clear Vinyl w/ Blue & Green + Sonic Blue Etched Disc (Limited Edition), 180g Sonic Blue Vinyl + Etched Disc, and 180g Classic Black Vinyl + Etched Disc.
Per the official pre-order site: Pre-orders for the limited edition will remain open until Monday 17th June (closing at 12:00pm UK time). Anyone who orders before then will be guaranteed a copy. The expected shipping date is September 2019.

So the beggining of the track will be the past then the middle the present then the bad and finally the good future?
No, it’ll be side A & B all the Present, side C all the Good Future, Side D all the Past, and Side E all the Bad Future. Side F will be an engraving.
Got it.
I nearly shat my pants when I got notified by Data Discs about this it just came out of nowhere. So I immediately pre-ordered the limited edition and threw in Streets of Rage as well because it was back in stock. Too bad it’ll take until September to ship however still worth it Sonic CD has a soundtrack made by the Gods!
Sadly that will never happen for Sonic 3 & Knuckles :/
