Davis provided the vocal work synonymous with Sonic R nowadays, and actually went on to work with SEGA again on the Metropolis Street Racer soundtrack (the same soundtrack that technically featured a remix of… Green Grove from Sonic 3D Saturn!

Sonic 3D was the first Sonic game that he composed for, and he was brought back for Sonic R. Over the last 10 years, Jacques has contributed a huge amount of music for the Sonic games, with the Sonic Boom games being the most recent Sonic titles he’s worked on. However, perhaps what he’s most well known for is his work on the Sonic the Hedgehog series. He’s won various awards, and been nominated for BAFTAs! His most acclaimed work was for the game Headhunter for SEGA Dreamcast. Jacques has composed music for a wide variety of titles, such as LittleBigPlanet 2, Mass Effect, Jet Set Radio.
