SCD Sonic cd US ost vs Japan/Europe ost, witch one is the best?

[Jvsouza11]

I know it's a old discussion but I wanted to know witch one of these two osts is the best.

Edit:(The Japanese version have the best intro music of all time.)

Both OSTs are very good regionally speaking but the Japanese/European version is my favorite.

Well I grew up on Japanese version, so I go with japanese ver. (And really like the intro)

Fot the most part, I prefer the JP/PAL OST; with the only exceptions being "Wacky Workbench", "Tidal Tempest" and especially "Sonic Boom" as I think it suits the intro cutscene a lot better.

US and Japanese both. :) Thanks to Whitehead, we have both in one!

The JPN/EUR soundtrack. Us Americans got fucked over.

 

[Miles]

The Japanese OST is way better!

 

[Super Funky Piece]

I do quite like Sonic Boom, especially the slower ending version, along with the more chill and mysterious special stage theme in the US soundtrack. But I can still remember JP a lot more overall.

Though most of my favourite tracks are from the Past versions of stages, so technically both versions are applicable there.

I always prefer the JP/PAL OST just because I've grown up with that version mainly but the US OST also has it's own charm so I have nothing against it.

 

[Bonkers225]

Japan/Euro. US basically got the Temu tracks.

 

[Scotty]

Us Americans got fucked over.

I think the US soundtrack is fine.

 

[RETRO-VETRO]

Both the Japanese version and United States versions are great.

 

[Jeff]

Both Japanese and US versions. I grew up with the US version and the music from that version gives me 90s Disney Epcot vibes mix with 80s cyberpunk anime.

 

[RageBurner]

I vastly prefer the JP/Euro OST. It's not even a contest.

 

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

Japanese.

It's not usually this lopsided, but damn.

That said... I still prefer the American intro.

JP ost flows much better than the US version's. It's a shame. They made their own Present, Good Future and Bad Future tracks but skipped Past entirely, reusing the JP tracks. Gives me musical whiplash when traveling to the past in every stage.
