The Side Pocket/Pocket Gal games have some great Jazz tunes. Especially the Genesis game.

The Side Pocket/ Pocket Gal games have some great Jazz tunes. Especially the Genesis game. Was just gonna mention that lol. I prefer the audio from the SNES version myself. It’s probably one of the best games Iguana ever made. Some of the tracks from Sin and Punishment may qualify: youtu.be/eHg0tAlRUzQAgave is more fusion, but has a great minor-7th style melody and awesome synth work. youtu.be/E7-AHj8vooEHeroine ‘a’ is also a bit more fusion but swings a bit and has a jazzy piano melody. |

All this talk about Streets of Rage 4's soundtrack had me curious. So I looked it up on the good ol web to have a quick sample - and ended up listening to (almost) the whole thing, while playing some Ninja Warriors Again. And I must say as game music every track works perfectly fine. There's a good deal of variety here, so naturally I didn't *love* every piece. But damn, there are some fantastic compositions to be found. And SoR veterans Koshiro and Kawashima certainly don't dissapoint. In fact one of my favorites has to be Kawashima's "Barbon": That's some fine Electro-Jazz right there.
edit: It's not really "loungy", but I figured this would still be the most appropriate thread.

And SoR veterans Koshiro and Kawashima Yes, and both of them are way past their prime. "Tight work schedules" didn't do any favors for Yuzo either. Here's an unused track composed for SoR Remake by some "freelancer" for comparison. |

Way to twist my words, eh?  I'm aware that you don't really care for SoR4's soundtrack. And I'm also aware that there are many skilled and talented people out there that don't get the recognition they deserve. The track you posted sounds fine to me, maybe a bit too familiar to get me really excited. But since familiarity is the point of that remake, it would've been a good fit indeed. SoR4 on the other hand also embraces change, combining familiar elements with new ones, as any good sequel should. I see Kawashima's & Koshiro's contributions to this game as part of that evolution (not to mention that their personal preferences may also have changed a bit over the years). But once again it comes down to a question of taste: I like it, you don't, fair enough. Unless you wanted to start a deeper discussion involving music theory or something (which I would not be very well equipped for tbh, but I'd be willing to do my best), there probably isn't a whole lot more to say about that, is there? |
