@@AymenZero Yeah, I won't argue that it's mainly & definitely done because of Mean Bean Machine, although I guess I should mention that Mean Bean Machine is a Western/Sonic reskin of the original Puyo Puyo, which is why the latter comes to mind for me first.

Michael Jackson has been dead since 2009, but it hard to not see his influence on the Sonic series, given that the original composer for Sonic 1 & 2, Masato Nakamura, was a songwriter for the J-Pop band Dreams Come True, and heavily based their music on the Thriller and Bad era of Michael Jackson. And then Sonic 3 & Knuckles hired Bradley Buxer (who was Michael Jackson's personal keyboardist and backing music co-composer) and had him and Michael Jackson consult on and compose some segments of the songs for that game. Sonic games have always been based on the curious fusion of Funk, Disco, Rock n' Roll, Rhythm and Blues, and Contemporary Pop that Michael Jackson pioneered in his Thriller and Bad albums.
Every track from this game, I get flashbacks to Etika jamming out, this one sticks out to me because I didn't recognise press garden at all so it was really like a friend showing me his favourite music and it was great.
It's a beautiful track and to an equally stunning level: A rare sight to see post-blossom snow: it generally doesn't last long, the plants have to re-bloom if it happens and the snow's gone after a day.
My favorite level has to be Titanic Monarch because of how unique the idea is. I mean, you never really see characters go inside of a gigantic robot to stop the villain. You always see them fight the robot, but never go inside it or on the scaffolding around it while being built.
@@misty_fogT-T just shut the fuck up man, so what if he’s a weeb, so what if I’m a weeb, anime was created for a fucking reason. TO ENTERTAIN. We don’t need bad vibes here.
This song literally makes me emotional as sin as well as many others from this game and the ones back in the 90's. Thinking after 28 years since Sonic and Knuckles, Tee Lopes did something so beautiful that I never thought would exist. He composed all the music in Sonic Mania. I want to be honest. I was born in the 90's so I don't remember much but I remember late 90's nights and not to mention early 2000's playing all four Sonic games from the 90's. This just awoken something in me that I needed from the past that I never thought I would get that feeling back ever in my entire life. I keep thinking how would the 90's be or early 2000's if this game and all osts existed?? It just sounds like it should of been made in the 90's and I cannot believe how much it sounds like it. It hurts me in the heart. This is how Sonic should be and maybe in the next ten, twenty or even thirty years we live through to see one more come back like this. This makes me feel complete. Thank you, Tee Lopes and thank you Sonic Team for making this possible. It reminds me that good games will exist even to this day. Games have been so bad or disappointing lately and reminds me that this masterpiece exists. I am going to play and hopefully beat it once again this week and I am going to have a ball. And yes.... Ashton Burton. Why in the unholy and how did this not make best soundtracks of the year. That is a gut punch.
I’d never thought I would say this about a Sonic zone but this one is straight up GORGEOUS! It may not be as flashy as the other zones but god damn it’s gorgeous, especially the music.
Would I be right in assuming this whole act was everyone's favourite? Very few things stun me anymore but the reveal of the frozen forest, the visuals combined with this music . . . amazing

So perfect for an ice stage. Dude, why couldn't Classic Sonic's music in Forces be more like Mania's masterpieces?? It would've made sense, given that "other dimension" Sonic is from Mania. Just sayin' Sonic Team. Oh well...
Different composer, and the game's both have a different flair. Soniv Forces goes for Techno music while Mania takes an approach closer to Sonic CD in it's remixes and new music

The way you tell if a level is mania original is if the environment is two different words from a random word generator (example: newspaper, ninja)
yes like green and hill, oil and ocean, or angel and island
...Why does EVERY upload of this song loop it incorrectly?
Yeah that honestly really irks me, this is one of my favs off the entire OST too
@The Red Pikmin Gaming around 1:20, a part is looped incorrectly
Thats just how the song is, its wierd
I've always assumed that was a stylistic thing with the song.
Thats how it is.
Tee Lopes and Michael Jackson definitely had to have met sometime in the past. Ain't no way this soundtrack is just this good from thin air.

I AM IN LOVE WITH THE BASSLINE HOW DID I NEVER HEAR IT BEFORE
The bass sounds like something from the bad album like just good friends or another part of me
This song really makes me feel relaxed and chilled out, and while Press Garden isn’t my favorite zone, this made me appreciate it a lot more.
1:19 did it just skip over a piece of the song?
The music in this game is almost hypnotic to me
Would I be right in assuming this whole act was everyone's favourite? Very few things stun me anymore but the reveal of the frozen forest, the visuals combined with this music . . . amazing
I absolutely love this stage and the music. I play it every time it snows outside to match the feel of the level. It's so soothing!
First time i played sonic mania i was just blown away from the soundtracks. Sega never fails when it comes to sonic sountracks
One of the COOLEST Sonic songs
This is so vaporwave.
I FUCKING LOVE IT
It's as if Michael Jackson helped a japanese musician make a theme for a cherry blossom garden.
Yup I agree!
Best zone for atmosphere and platforming precision
I can't get over this song
Easily my favourite music in this game!
It's sooooo amazing!
OK. What fucking game won best music of 2017? Because whoever did doesn't deserve it, but this does.
