Hi, thanks for your email.
Since I was soooo busy, I didn't reply your last email, sorry.
And usually we ---- mean the developers ---- don't reply such a personal
email... I hope you can understand about that.
Ok, this time I'll reply which I can answer for you...
That means I can't answer for the details, sorry.
1. I know Milpo, but he did left SEGA already...
I don't know what he's doing right now.
2. Yes, I did for the SONIC 3D Blast for MD.
Saturn version has different music on the CD.
Actually, the guy in UK was the person in charge for Saturn version.
He also was the songwriter for SONIC R too.
3. About the list, yes, it's the all what I did for SONIC titles.
4. I have MIDI files for some of them, but I can't give them to anybody
without contract between SEGA and xxx...
I hope you can understand.
5. about the SONIC 3 project, I can't tell you the details, sorry.
There were so much secret things. My lips are sealed!
Ta ta 4 now!
