Our version of "Casino Night Zone (2-Player)" from Sonic 2 performed live at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden's Sakura Matsuri 2019, on April 28, 2019. Originally composed by Masato Nakamura, this arrangement by Patrick Bartley.

Well, Sonic sure has been getting a lot of attention lately, for some... questionable reasons, to say the least. But hey! If there's anything we learned, it's that there's power in the community. With that in mind, let's take a moment to honor the first time Sonic was enjoyable by more than one person at a time, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for the Genesis! This is one of our all-time favorite funky Sonic jams, with great solo features by Toby on trombone and Sean on guitar. Blast this out from your car or in the park and get everybody grooving! (they won't even realize it's video game music 😎)
