DATA025: Sonic Spinball

Released in partnership with SEGA, we are proud to announce the debut vinyl edition of Sonic Spinball.

Originally released in 1993 for the Mega Drive console, the game was an ambitious hybrid of pinball and platforming and a significant departure from previous Sonic the Hedgehog games. This change of game style, along with the industrial-themed level designs, also inspired a very different kind of Sonic soundtrack. Composed by Howard Drossin, Brian Coburn and Barry Blum from the SEGA Technical Institute in the USA (where the game was also developed), the music of Sonic Spinball is suitably darker, industrial and wholly unique for a Sonic game of the era.

Sonic Spinball is presented as a 180g vinyl edition, remastered in-house and cut at 45RPM. The audio was sourced from a Japanese Mega Drive console, alongside archival files supplied by Sonic Team. It is packaged in a heavyweight matt laminated sleeve and accompanied by a lithographic print of the classic cover art and an obi strip. It is available in the following editions:

180g Frosted Clear with Translucent Blue Stripes (Limited Edition)
180g Translucent Blue
180g Classic Black

NOTE: Please allow up to 1 week for your order to ship. Some copies are in shrink wrap, others are packed in resealable polypropylene sleeves (with the record removed to avoid seam splits); all are brand new. The limited edition features a random colour effect; each copy is slightly different and unique. The amount of colour and the spacing between the "stripes" will vary between copies.
