Q: Why isn't this song in the Tekken 8 jukebox? A: While this hasn't been officially confirmed by Bandai Namco, the most likely reason is licensing issues. The same goes for "AS BALD AS?" (Heihachi's arranged Tekken 2 theme) and "Ground Zero Funk" (Tekken 5).
This song is the reason that T2 still has the best soundtrack in the Tekken series after all these years... Sure there are lots of great tracks in the game, but this is just BEYOND INSANE...
Played in this stage for hours with the air conditioner set to full blast in the hot summer of the 90s. Yoshimitsu came first, the girls after. Not a care in the world!
I enjoy the musical transition from traditional Japanese music into the transformation of a more electronic take, rather fitting to the character change in design for Yoshimitsu when he still look primarily human.
Absolutely phenomenal, brought tears to my eyes remembering my big brother and how we used to play Tekken 2 together and apart, smashing arcade mode on the hardest difficulty with Kazuya and Heihachi and Wang and Nina/Anna and Baek. This song was always my favourite, I used to prolong the fight with Yoshimitsu just to make it last longer. I used to play on a tiny 14" CRT television through an aerial lead. The most powerful memories flooding back through the half hour of listening to this. I'm right back there.
Incredible, glad I reached you. I lost my brother in December of this year and sometimes I have to re-visit songs like this to take me back. Still doesn't feel real.
I took me 20 years to discover this awesomely full theme. I never EVER made it past the initial chanting sounds in 20 years. Come to find out it's probably one of the best themes in the whole damn game...
Wow! Yeah, I thought it was kinda boring at 1st too but then my boyfriend at the time told me it was his favorite. 😳 I questioned his sanity... Pfft! I missed out on it also until I listened to the rest of it. There are so many elements to it. It's one of my favorite as well. ❤️❤️❤️
Luckily I had this stage when I choose to look at the moves list and practice. That's how I realized how much more the theme builds up after the chanting. Otherwise I'm not surprised if most people never realized how deep the track is.
This game is a masterpiece in atmosphere because of tracks like this and beautiful stage design. The aesthetic of tekken has never been better and won't be matched for years to come.
To explain this music, one part is about a samurai/ninja, the secnd is about science/machines, which togheter makes this track, Yoshi slowly became more and more cyborg from tekken 2 and forwards. He still wears a full body suit in Tekken 7 under his armor, Dr Bosconovich creates most of his outfits or adds new improvements trough science, like a voice changer, improved vision and so on. Bosconovich is propably the only person who's seen Yoshis face.
Man this, now THIS really takes me back. Such an excellent theme. Man this was always my favorite stage to fight in just for the music, so mysterious (like yoshi himself) but also relaxing. God what i wouldn't do to be a kid in the mid 90's again just enjoying my childhood and having fun...being an adult sucks..
@@jackjax7921 Tekken 7 has electronic music which of course I like, but nowhere near as good as this, especially this theme.. it's just beautiful. I also recommend Yoshimitsu's other theme from Tekken 2, it's just as beautiful.
I remember playing the arcade machine in like '97-'98 in Mexico when I was just a little kid. I'd go to the local grocery store every Saturday and we had like 10 people just waiting to play Tekken 2, and everyone couldn't wait to get their turn so we'd just VS each other. Good times.
I always loved this theme growing up and thought Yoshimitsu was the coolest of all the characters. Not just in looks but also in play style. Personally I miss this look for him. Some of his costumes in the later games are just so...odd.
Tekkemitsu has always been a bit strange. Honestly, his Tekken 1 and 2 selves are probably the only ones which were actually human. Could still be argued in 3, but from 4 and onwards it's pretty clear that Tekkenmitsu is not a human at all, or at least not anymore. I personally believe that the reason why he becomes wierder and wierder is because of his cursed sword and that his second sword, Fumaken, can only stave off the Manji Clan sword's curse for so long before the wielder becomes something utterly inhuman or alien.
Fiend Matador Slayer of a Thousand Noobs - Him being human can still be debated for his appearance in Tekken 4 (or at least, that's what I think). His neck skin can be seen with his main costume and his alternate costume is fairly human-like as well.
@@FiendMatadorSlayerOfNoobs I know I am a bit late but he is still human. Yoshimitsu is the leader of the Manji Clan which must be a human. Also all his appearances in Tekken 4 and onwards, are all just armors. In every Tekken he wears a different armor. And ot might be that the Yoshimitsu from Tekken is Yoshimitsu the 5th. Why? Because in Soul Calibur, Yoshimitsu already died in the earlier titles. Not officially, but it is a theory, because Yoshimitsu the 2nd lost a arm. It is possible that he lost that arm in the fight between Yoshimitsu the first and himself. Now after centuries, Yoshimitsu the (probably) 5th happened. So don't worry, you're always playing Yoshi :)
@@yoshi596 Actually, Yoshimitsu lost his arm when he and the Manji Clan tried to steal an energy core from Dr Bosconovitch. The Doctor then gave Yoshimitsu a robot arm for a new arm, it explains why Yoshimitsu can freaking fly with his sword just by spinning his hand... But it's also why Yoshimitsu cares a great deal about Doctor Bosconovitch. He even fought in the KOTIFT3 just for a chance to fight Ogre and get a blood sample from him in the hopes of making a cure for Bosconovitch, as he caught a disease. He also sought vengeance against Brian Fury when he betrayed Bosconovitch and attacked him and killed several Manji clan members in Tekken 5.
@@yoshi596 I could be wrong about how he lost his arm, but I do know he didn't lose his arm by fighting another Yoshimitsu. Manji clan rules state that if a new leader arises, he must behead and kill the old leader which will pass the mantle of "Yoshimitsu" down to the new leader. So perhaps, the Yoshimitsu from Tekken 1 was the original leader and the Yoshimitsu from Tekken 2 killed the old Yoshimistu by rule of the Manji clan and became the Yoshimitsu we all know.
One of the only game music that gives me goosebumps. You can feel the mystery of an ancestral bamboo forest, in which even the rays of the moon cannot penetrate ... You know he watches you hide in the shadows like generations of ninja before him. .. Be careful, or the last thing you will see, will be the luminous flash of its blade before your breath stops ... Wonderful music, an ode to Japan ...
I grew up loving the ost from tekken 5 dr, but it's clear to me that the older games (which I've never played) also had some badass tunes. What a cool series
Certain aspects of this song - such as the way it switches intensity partway through, and the sustained synths, and the traditional flute sound, and the bass which seems to be oscillate filtered - remind me of the soundtrack to Populous The Beginning
While this hasn't been confirmed officially, it's most likely due to licensing issues. Both tracks features vocal chanting and I'd guess that if Bandai Namco were to include this track in Tekken 7, they would have to pay extra royalties to the vocalists. Or maybe there's a different reason, like the vocalists not giving Bandai Namco permission to use these tracks in any game other than Tekken 2.
Man ive been playing tekken since I was 14 and I still remember hearing this song not to mention yoshi's stage. The trees, the vibe, everything was breathing taking... I made sure this was the stage I would always train in.

This is my favorite of them all. I remember I used to spy my uncle to see what he was playing and I just saw yoshimitsu's stage. Then he looked at me and said "Wanna try" I was amazed by this game.
This and the amazing fighting stage of Yoshimitsu... Simply breathtaking! Although the entire soundtrack from Tekken 2 is amazing, this one was so special. I still get the chills when I listen to this track, as it brings back the days when I first started playing video games
I wonder why this track is usually missing in the in-game returning soundtracks (Tekken Tag Tournament 2 and Tekken 7) and on Spotify. It's so good, yet always not available. You'd only find the arcade version of this theme.

@@SteinVidarGAMING I'd love to hear the raw vocals for it, I'm guessing Namco sampled some old chant that's now taboo or something and got in trouble for it it's happened with so many different video game soundtracks like Zelda
I remember being just a 4 year old when I first laid my eyes on Tekken 2. I even had a GamePro magazine with screenshots and a small guide to each character's move lists. When I heard Yoshimitsu's theme I'd get goosebumps and to this day I still do. Then Tekken 3 came into the household.
Though my alltime favorite will forever be TEKKEN 3, this particular track was a stout reason for me to fall in love with Yoshimitsu. The only other track in my humble opinion that even comes close to this atmosphere is "Moonlit Wilderness" TEKKEN 5 (my 2nd favorite game thanks to new characters such as Raven and Feng Wei) Alongside Lei Wulong, Law and Hwoarang I quickly found my favorites.
This theme was in TTT2 at first cause one of the first things I did was change all the music to a classic Tekken themes, which this was one of the themes I definitely used but there was an update at some point that took the song out.
I think the idea was that Jin took after his mother, Jun Kazama, as renounced the selfish and cruel was of his father Kazuya. I prefer Kazuya as a character both in terms of personality and moveset, it was cool how they blended Jun's moves (Three Ring Circus etc) with the traditional Mishima moveset.
Nah don't think so. But still, Jin is the strongest one that comes from the Mishima bloodline. I mean he has beaten both, Kazuya and Heihachi and that, without great problems.
In the beginning it was really good when jin appeared tekken 3 but once they changed jins moves and jin discarded his old style I feel it made him weaker he should have kept the mishima style and mixed it with whatever else he knew.i say tekken 5 is when it truly went down story wise tekken 5 story wasnt good anymore and it left you wondering about kazuya hibachi and jin they completey just ignored each other but what really kulled it is them changing jins style man how i hated whem they did that he used to have the best moves of everyone he started off like a prodigy but then when got rid of the mishima style it made him less good by alot Devil Jim just doesnt cut it either and they mde him slower too people wanted to play with jin too not just the devil form
He was my first mastered Tekken champion, one of the reasons why I like samurai, one of the only left-handed fighters xD, and - next to Kunimitsu among the most mysterious Tekken fighters. Well, I guess I'll buy a used copy of the original trilogy since they didn't re-platform the classics and my discs, dead.
Apparently this is due to licensing issues. My guess is that they would have to pay extra royalties to the vocalist on this track if they wanted to put it in the T7 Jukebox, and for whatever reason they decided not to.
@@SteinVidarGAMING yeah kinda figured.....but still......this shit on the ARCADE version by HELLAS......but whatever Namco got to workout I'mma just leave it to them.....it's beyond my control lol!
I never listened to the Arranged version when I was younger, I never liked the songs since they started too slow and I'd play one round only. What a fool I was.
Was a huge fan of these series. The new content creators have utterly destroyed the series and is unrecognizable. Street fighter has been completely decimated

Q: Why isn't this song in the Tekken 8 jukebox?
A: While this hasn't been officially confirmed by Bandai Namco, the most likely reason is licensing issues. The same goes for "AS BALD AS?" (Heihachi's arranged Tekken 2 theme) and "Ground Zero Funk" (Tekken 5).

Only reason I'm here because I'm tryna find it. Thanks for confirming my fears😢
i wish it was ! At least yoshi looks like a samurai again!
This isn't in Tekken 8?
Tekken 2's ost is the best by a mile imo in the whole series
Tekken will never have this kind of atmosphere ever again; games are still good, but this level of atmosphere won't be the same.

You can say that again!
Tekken 5 where it ended
@@DementiaGaming87 Tekken Tag Tournament is where it ended for me.

Cool Japanese straw hat. With a creepy face mask. This the kinda yoshimitsu they need to bring back. Not the weird alien look
Yoshimitsu the character who can,t make up his mind on what to wear
He went from human(Tekken) to skeleton to alien(Tekken 7).
Basically he is the combination of thousands warriors soul. I think thats why.
Tekken 1- 3 He had the best outfits
he's Tekken's Athena
this track is so majestic and timeless
DAMN RIGHT
This was the best theme to me I spent hours in that forest learning most of the characters moves including the shark attack below
I always practiced with Yoshimitsu just to listen to this. Even at 2am in the morning, it would take you into a whole different world.

Tekken 2 is a must play for any fan of the series and the soundtrack is still the best in the series in my opinion.
Agreed, it’s a shame that it gets overshadowed by T3 so much.
Debatably the best stage theme in the entire Tekken series.
I like emotionless passion of Kazuya's stage better,but this one's great too.
@@blackemperor7485 I see you are also a man of culture.

If Nina Williams can get her own game, then so can Yoshimitsu.
I enjoy the musical transition from traditional Japanese music into the transformation of a more electronic take, rather fitting to the character change in design for Yoshimitsu when he still look primarily human.
It's his 'rebirth' into a better cyborg - much like the theme for the Ghost in the Sheel movie from the 90's.

not in tekken 8 😔
Weird how this version isn’t on the official soundtrack on Spotify, love this track
This song right here tho 😢
If this makes it in ultimate, i will shed tears of joy
Am Missing it in Tekken 7 miles better than the space ninja theme
Jin kazama is where the series started to decline Kazuya was stronger in conviction and charisma.
Jin should have been more like him
I think the idea was that Jin took after his mother, Jun Kazama, as renounced the selfish and cruel was of his father Kazuya. I prefer Kazuya as a character both in terms of personality and moveset, it was cool how they blended Jun's moves (Three Ring Circus etc) with the traditional Mishima moveset.
Nah don't think so. But still, Jin is the strongest one that comes from the Mishima bloodline. I mean he has beaten both, Kazuya and Heihachi and that, without great problems.
In the beginning it was really good when jin appeared tekken 3 but once they changed jins moves and jin discarded his old style I feel it made him weaker he should have kept the mishima style and mixed it with whatever else he knew.i say tekken 5 is when it truly went down story wise tekken 5 story wasnt good anymore and it left you wondering about kazuya hibachi and jin they completey just ignored each other but what really kulled it is them changing jins style man how i hated whem they did that he used to have the best moves of everyone he started off like a prodigy but then when got rid of the mishima style it made him less good by alot
Devil Jim just doesnt cut it either and they mde him slower too people wanted to play with jin too not just the devil form
Tekken 6 jin*
I was 15 when I first heard this. 42 today. This track still hits hard.
dude you are greatness for uploading this classic
He was my first mastered Tekken champion, one of the reasons why I like samurai, one of the only left-handed fighters xD, and - next to Kunimitsu among the most mysterious Tekken fighters. Well, I guess I'll buy a used copy of the original trilogy since they didn't re-platform the classics and my discs, dead.
You can get it on PSN and play it it you have a PS3 or Vita... or a PS5, if that's backwards compatible!
Why tf this isn't on the T7 jukebox!?
Apparently this is due to licensing issues.
My guess is that they would have to pay extra royalties to the vocalist on this track if they wanted to put it in the T7 Jukebox, and for whatever reason they decided not to.
@@SteinVidarGAMING yeah kinda figured.....but still......this shit on the ARCADE version by HELLAS......but whatever Namco got to workout I'mma just leave it to them.....it's beyond my control lol!
@psrc It would make good background music for the Cave of Enlightment stage even though the music for that stage is already 🔥
It’s the best 90s Tekken song and they don’t pay the royalties to revive it. 🤷🏻♂️
Its the same with T2 Heihachi's theme is missing in TTT2 and T7m but the directors excuse was that they forgot to include them.
I never listened to the Arranged version when I was younger, I never liked the songs since they started too slow and I'd play one round only. What a fool I was.
I don't understand why Tekken 8 omitted this song from the Tekken 2 playlist. One of the best Tekken songs ever.
It's because of licensing issues. :(
@@SteinVidarGAMING So sad!
Tekken 2 and Mortal kombat 3 are the best
Transcending Instrumentation
God Mode!!
Yeah this song slaps. What a vibe #Yoshimitsu
2023 still enjoys this track.. sounds stealthy
Was a huge fan of these series. The new content creators have utterly destroyed the series and is unrecognizable. Street fighter has been completely decimated
Wow l didn't know that made music themes from the game to put it into a soundtrack like that.
They was born in 2000? they can't understand! they just can't understand! best T2 theme EVER!
BEAUTIFULLY COMPOSED
Its crazy that sometimes you can't hear this song in full in Tekken 2 cause games lasted so short you didn't get past that intro lmao
If u a 90s baby fr u rember this song 🤣🤣
Em 1997 ouvia essa trilha, agora em 2024 também, nostalgia pura
Thanks. Needed this for the gym today
