Power Drift Gets Japanese Soundtrack Release
Here’s one you may struggle to remember.
An arcade release in 1988, Power Drift was an arcade racer much like OutRun and Hang-On series which used scaling sprites to create something of a three dimensional effect. It also has another connection with those two games – Yu Suzuki. Power Drift actually had 12 characters in its roster, which for the time was actually quite something! You could even race as the After Burner plane on an unlockable extra stage. In later years it made it to both the SEGA Saturn and Dreamcast as part of the SEGA Ages and Yu Suzuki Game Works Vol. 1 collections respectively.
Well the original soundtrack by Hiroshi Kawaguchi has been re-packaged and released… today! Not only that according to VGMdb it contains some protoype/unused music. Pretty sweet.
