Review: Sonic Symphony London 2024
Sonic Symphony's performance last night at London's Hammersmith Apollo was an electrifying celebration. The concert delivered a fantastic evening of entertainment.
The orchestra, despite being occasionally drowned out by the enthusiastic audience, showcased the Sonic soundtracks' timeless melodies with finesse. Shota Nakama and Tomoya Ohtani performances, as always, were a masterclass in musicality. TJ Davis and Richard Jacques surprise Sonic R medley was the undisputed highlight of the evening - more on that in a bit.
Setlist: A balancing act with potentially too much Frontiers
The 2024 setlist offered a change from the previous year, introducing dedicated segments for Shadow and Knuckles, a new Sonic Heroes medley, and a notable focus on the Sonic Frontiers soundtrack. However, these additions came at the cost of beloved classics like "What I'm Made Of...", "Knight of the Wind," and "Open Your Heart," as well as the orchestral renditions of Sonic CD and Game Gear tracks.
While the new inclusions were appreciated, the heavy emphasis on Sonic Frontiers' music felt somewhat unbalanced. The absence of many Crush 40 classics was a shame. This could’ve been because Jun Senoue was unable to attend due to commitments at the Tokyo Game Show but I would’ve been happy with the musicians in attendance covering those tracks in his absence.
The removal of the Sonic CD medley is understandable from an orchestral arrangement perspective. However, the Game Gear medley's omission was a real shame.
Overall, I understand that a returning global tour needs to be freshened up here and there, but future iterations could benefit from a more balanced selection that caters to a wider range of fan favorites. If an audience member hadn’t played, or wasn’t a fan of, Sonic Frontiers then almost 50% of the setlist wasn’t for them.
See the full set list here.
Venue and Atmosphere: A Rock Concert Vibe
The move from the Barbican to the Hammersmith Apollo significantly altered the concert's atmosphere. The classical ambiance of the former was replaced with the high-energy, rock concert-like environment of the latter.
While the crowd's enthusiasm was undeniably infectious, it often overshadowed the orchestral performance, particularly during Act 2. The orchestra, relegated to a supporting role, struggled to be heard over the 3,500-strong sing-along.
Even the band's instruments were often drowned out. This created a somewhat conflicting experience for those who attended primarily to appreciate the musicianship, highlighting a potential disconnect between venue choice and the desired concert experience.
Sonic R Medley: A Show-Stopping Surprise
The undisputed highlight of the evening was a surprise Sonic R medley featuring live performances from TJ Davis and Richard Jacques. Kicking off with the iconic "Can You Feel The Sunshine," the medley transitioned seamlessly into "Living In The City."
The crowd erupted, singing every word in unison with TJ Davis, whose vocals were nothing short of phenomenal. The medley culminated with the high-octane "Super Sonic Racing," bringing the energy to a fever pitch.
The joy radiating from all the performers, especially Richard Jacques and TJ Davis, was infectious, making it a truly unforgettable moment. Their chemistry and passion were palpable, leaving the audience hoping for more such collaborations in future Sonic Symphony performances.

Conclusion: A strong 8/10 with areas of improvement
Sonic Symphony London 2024 was, overall, a thrilling musical journey through the Sonic discography. The concert's high points, including the stellar performances and the unforgettable Sonic R medley, were undeniable.
To reach a perfect 10, future iterations of the concert could benefit from a more balanced setlist and a venue that allows the orchestral arrangements to truly shine. However, even with these considerations, the Sonic Symphony remains an unmissable experience for any fan of the Blue Blur.
Thank you Sonic Symphony. See you again next year hopefully!

Summer Vacation
I have an unusually request for you all today. Tell me your least favorite part of your summer vacation. Tell me what made you want to go home early. Let me know if your family was driving you crazy or if you were missing your family. Tell me about how you had a staycation and would have given anything to be in the Bahamas or vise versa. It’s ok to not be happy all the time. You don’t always have to remember the good times. Remembering crappy things that happened to you is a part of life. Let’s make art with our bad memories!

Yin and Yang
Elizabeth held her baby gently and softly stroked its disheveled hair into place. She giggled and smiled as the baby gazed up into her big blue eyes. She rocked it back and forth and sang a pleasant song quietly for only the little one to hear. Her baby began to fuss and was refusing the bottle she had spent so long preparing, before climbing the winding treturous stairs that lead to the babies room. Elizabeth began to stress slightly before removing her breast from behind its cotton keeper. The fussing stopped the moment her nipple hit her babies lips and Elizabeth felt at ease once more.
She hears her name from a distance and she stops to look up but no one is there. Her face goes pale and her blue eyes turn grey. She looks to see her sweet baby but it’s gone. She begins to panic, crying and reaching out for her lost baby. In a moment she is rushed by multiple men all in white. They hold her down forcefully and she desperately screams for help. She looks around to notice others but they seem to be completely oblivious or ignoring her pleas. She feels a pinch on her neck and through her veins a liquid fire. She passes out.

I believe you
You tell me I’m beautiful, funny and smart. That you love me and you would never hurt me. That I’m the only one and will be the only one. You promise to take care of me and never leave me. You tell me you’d rather have a bad day with me then a good day with someone else. You tell me things and I believe you.

I don’t know
I am desperate for something to occupy my mind but I can never find something that does for long. I am emerged into something for a couple days I feel satisfied and at ease. I can relax knowing I have something. Then it fades. I lose interest and drive. I’m back we’re I started. Empty and without a distraction from my hurtful thoughts. I was watching a Netflix show and the character says “It’s just myself, talking to myself about myself”. Peaky Blinders is so good! That line hit me like a ton of bricks. That is how I feel a lot. Im so hard on myself and I’m constantly in my own head. I continuously say to myself I need a hobby. I always thought I’d be deep into motherhood by now. And my mind would be filled with motherly duties. What do I do with myself now? I feel the need to hide away. In my safe little bubble where I can be sad if I want. I can be mad if I want. You can’t judge me or try to help me. I may feel like something’s missing but at least I can feel it by myself in my happy place.

Maybe
There’s something about asking for things that you need and not receiving them. It makes sense when you need a drink of water and can easily help yourself to a glass. But what about a hug? What about a little attention? What about a bit of patience? When your asking but not receiving what do you do then? Maybe you just think you need it right now and tomorrow will be different and you’ll be fine once again. But, what about today? You need a hug like the air you breath, yet no one is giving it to you. You are practically begging. Now you are silent and it’s the end of the night. So, maybe tomorrow you’ll be fine. Maybe.
