My first console was a Sega Genesis. I loved Sonic as a kid and I have fond memories playing through the early titles in the series. I especially loved the music; I would actually listen on headphones plugged into the Genesis. Flash forward to 2012: I was in my last semester of music school, and I joined a jazz combo called the Zebras. The ensemble picked a new theme each semester, and that spring, the theme was video game music arranged in a jazz style. (This was years before jazz covers of VGM got big on UA-cam). I had a blast being in that band, and I contributed two arrangements to their repertoire. One of them was an earlier version of this track: Hydrocity Zone Act II, arranged for a smaller ensemble. In this track, I’ve expanded the arrangement to fit a full band.
Throughout the arrangement you're going to hear the incredible rhythm section of Greg, Brian, Austin and Shawn. The first three are old UNT classmates of mine who work out in LA - whereas Shawn was in the Navy Commodores with me and is a top tier jazz guitarist who can play anything. I'd be remiss to forget the incredible ensemble playing spearheaded by Nashville lead trumpet ace, Steve Patrick. I’d also like to give a special nod to the Jerry Hey style "a capella" horn section soli in the middle. The soloists Howi Dietz and Emmanuel Echem bring some serious fire and soul to the piece. You don't wanna miss it!

Damn, ain't nobody else playing VGM like this. Absolute heat..
Well, 8-bit Big Band is🔥 too. Both are excellent.
Noice!!
This is the best thing to happen to Sonic since Jim Carrey played Robotnic.
-Miles Prower
this is such high quality it's almost criminal that i can just .. watch it.. for free?????
Maybe a Bandcamp release once I can figure out all the legal stuff?
@@TylerMire Hell yeah! If you can't do it on Bandcamp due to complicated rights issues, try to sell these tracks elsewhere (if you aren't already)!
@@PigDan I think once I finish the entire set of tracks I would love to do a Bandcamp release! Thanks for the support!
just a bunch of twinks playing in their PJ's. relax.
Brilliant job on this! What a great jam to wind down after a long day!
Thank you!
I'm just here waiting for the official Sonic account to notice this!
I’d love that! What can we do to get their attention?
Well…..They Did catch the attention of the “Sonic Stadium” Website. Here I’ll show You. C: www.sonicstadium.org/2021/07/hydrocity-zone-act-ii-theme-gets-funky-with-this-big-band-cover/
Hopefully through them, this cover may make it to SEGA & the official Sonic accounts attention.
@@TheDreamrevolution awesome! If you know any folks I should out to, I’m all ears!
@@TylerMire I know. Show it to people at SEGA like Katie who was a big part in setting up the special anniversary orchestra. There's some other people too who could get this lovely piece some more attention from the community.

I keep coming back to listen to this - I love how you guys can add so much of your own flair to the music, while still preserving its authentic feel. Incredible.
Incredible. Every section, every musician, all just incredible.
Notice how he held that note for 8 counts when the Yoshi 8) popped up lol
Wooo! That breakdown at 1:17 is bananas! Amazing writing as always
Thank you Jerry Hey!
Ryan Reynolds on the sea foam guitar (bass?) is awesome. Also, this entire video.

Awesome production and brass voicings are tight!!
Thanks Carlos! Been super digging your videos (some of my favorite Vegas players)! I’d love to collaborate in future if you’re ever up for trading recordings, or even just talking shop :)

Insanely good! Slick, polished, catchy. Feels like something out of Mario Kart 8's soundtrack but officially from Sega.
Thanks! I’d love to do a big horn band for a game OST like in Mario Kart 8.
NICE
2:25 lol!
Liked and subscribed!!!!!
Do you guys make lots of videos about sonic jazz musics? i'd love to see more! maybe i'll add to my travel playlist, y'know.. watch things pass by.. while listening to a good jazz..
We have many other video game jazz covers, no other Sonic tunes (yet!)
🤟🤟🌟
amazing :')
This was amazing! Great playing by everyone!
It is a travesty that this has less than 10K views after two years. wtf, UA-cam, get your head out of... there.
Almost to 10k!
How does this have sub1000 likes, wtf internet. Go to the hague for sentencing.
Can we get a lossless download?
I'm hoping to release a bandcamp album once I finish all the tracks.
@@TylerMire hell yeah, that's awesome!
