MP3 of the Day

Sonic the Hedgehog was released for the Sega Genesis system on this day in 1991. The game is widely considered to be one of the greatest of all time, placing #51 on IGN's 2007 list. Sonic added the element of speed to the standard platform formula and introduced other unique elements such as the loops, springboards, high-speed devices, and the rings now permanently associated with the series. The game was both a critical and commercial success, it sold 4 million copies, the second-highest for a Genesis game, behind Sonic 2, which sold 6 million copies. Today we have the song Zipp Zapp by LAROMLAB. Happy Monday... summer is finally here!

This song is reminiscent of an 8-bit, low-budget Daft Punk.
