The Sonic Stadium Music Album 2011 is a 2011-12 TSS Project created by members of The Sonic Stadium. Feel free to share this album.
Spearheaded by forum member VizardJeffhog, the Sonic Stadium Music Album is a collaborative project done by the fans, for the fans. The TSSMA showcases the works of 16 artists within the community from differing musical backgrounds and levels who have banded together in order to pay tribute to the epic music of the "Sonic the Hedgehog" series, remixing tracks from games both well and little known, including a few originals!
If you enjoyed the album, we'd love to hear from you!

A young gamer and huge Sonic fan since the age of 4. He's also an anime fan and a band geek. As musical hobbies, he plays the drums and practices beatboxing.

Dilla, Oh No, Madlib, Amp Live, Gorillaz, and SEGA's own Hideki Naganuma.

Dan is a self proclaimed artist, cartoonist and writer who wishes to bring smiles and joy to the world around him. He also has a passion for animation, music and making models. He plans to use his skills to gather a following so he can one day rule the world, one pixel at a time!
A white rabbit from southern California who spends his days ripping up the airwaves and pumping out Hardcore jams at home. He is most inspired by the varied musical styles of Cirque du Soleil and plays the panflute in his spare time.
EXshad is a fairly new remixer to the scene. He likes to pretend that he knows how to play guitar, and is always striving to better his work so other people think so too. His goal in life is to find out how one goes about the act of following one's rainbow.
Laying lazily on a sofa-bed in a petite three-bedroom semi, nested deeply in rural England many miles from the nearest fast food restaurant or vigeogame arcade, the Great and Powerful eXtaticus is usually seen tapping away merrily on a cheap netbook while plotting eventual internet domination. He's the all-encompassing Overlord of the FL Studio, the benevolent Commander of the Fanfiction Fleet, a mighty warrior of night (see: Ponies until 4AM) - and a self-confessed narcissist. Handle with care; may contain nuts (and probably an unhealthy dose of dodgy Rick Astley impersonations).
Simon Shirley, better known as ForeverSonic, is a hobbyist musician. He's been a fan of Sonic music since the beginning and has seeked ways to play along to many of the soundtracks on a number of different instruments.
Freen in Green is an animated band from the fictional land of Riverside City Saskatchewan, Canada. Their guitarist Aptiva was in charge of most of the remixing for their three submissions, with help from Zoot-9000 and Mysteri, their keyboardists.
A Sonic fan 'til the day he dies in an inescapable pit of spikes. A huge gamer, has been ever since he played Sonic 2 on his old Genesis. Loves drawing cartoons and is a bit of an actor and singer on the side. Loves music, and listens to video game music all the time. And Nightwish.
Mike Shaffer, known online as "mikeblastdude", comes from Portland, Oregon, known as one of the weirdest places in the United States. He has an insane Sonic collection, with a room full of merchandise and over 50 Sonic games.
Carbo mods SSMB and composes music under the alias "Plumegeist". Some day he's going to blow the world away with his masterful creations. We don't know when, but some day.
Armed with a drawing tablet, an old version of Photoshop, a thesaurus and the spellcheck function built into Internet Explorer's browser, he seeks to bring literacy to the illiterate, drink tea and draw some occasionally snazzy pictures.
Revision-One is composed of a single robotic unit that fights for justice and all that is cool in this world.
Sean is a moderator on the SSMB and an adequate pencil artist. His brain is in fact an ultramodern metropolis where his ideas of varying creativity flourish and commune as a society. His other interests include animation, stalking anybody who makes music, skirt-chasing (2% success rate, ladies!), and cats. Hates Sonic.
StereoPixel is a music Producer/Composer, Known for composing original work for Indie games he jumped on the project to contribute some kick-ass remix's and even an original piece in tribute to Sonic 4 Ep.2! He's been a Sonic fan since a kid (It was the very first game he played!) and his ultimate goal is to be composing music for Sonic and other great games of the future!
Urban Flow, a remixer, fighting game fanatic and big fan of the anime Black Lagoon. He is heavily influenced by 90's Hip-hop, Sega, and his favorite composer, Motoi Sakuraba. Loves listening to music, playing keyboard, watching anime, and taking strolls in his spare time.
Founder, director, and overall coordinator of the project, VizardJeffhog is a pianist from the fictional area that is Maple Leaf Valley Zone in the mysterious country of Canada. Looking up to numerous video game music composers, Jeffhog has the tendency to play a random tune on the piano by ear to the point where he ends up getting carried away.
