It's always great when I get the opportunity to push my skills as an arranger and producer, and this track did that. Here's my arrangement of "Can You Feel the Sunshine" from Sonic R! While the game definitely leaves some things to be desired, nobody can argue that this song ISN'T bangin'. 

This arrangement was actually a midterm assignment for one of my classes at Berklee! We were tasked with writing an arrangement for a band consisting of lead vocals, 2 background vocalists, 5 horns (trumpet, alto sax, tenor sax, trombone, bari), and rhythm section! I had so much fun putting this song together, and I'm so happy that it's come together like this.

This song probably won't be hitting the channel for a while (still gotta film quite a few parts)... but I'm so excited for when it does :)

I hate to admit it, but I do have access to the game... so I could get footage.

This sounds fantastic! I never really listened to this song but I may just put this song on repeat for the rest of the day! Just something to try and fix there is kind of a weird groove shift around 1:53. Sounds like a beat may be missing or something, the transition just doesnt feel as clean as it could be.

Your guest performers never fail to deliver, but oh my goodness this vocalist is something else. I assumed she did all the vocal tracks? Her performance complements the arrangement so well! This is magnificent.

Oh yes I feel it. Perfect song for spring time. The groove is so strong.

Yeah! Waiting for the sun to come out for a day so maybe I can get some sunshine in this video... though that doesn't look like it'll be anytime soon - just got ANOTHER winter storm warning in MA :p

She's just singing lead vocals! I've got two other friends doing backgrounds :) Thanks so much, I knew she was a great pick!

Fantastic! As much of a meme as this song is, I can't stop swaying while listening to this.
