Look up the Amen Break, it’s 6 seconds of drumming from an obscure song from the 60s that almost singlehandedly spawned hip hop, jungle, D’n’b, breakbeat genres. It has been sampled in one for or another in well over 3000 songs since the late 80s and is still used today. From Wikipedia: “The Amen break is a drum break that has been widely sampled in numerous music genres. It comes from the 1969 track "Amen, Brother" by the soul group the Winstons, released as the B-side of the 1969 single "Color Him Father". The drum break lasts about seven seconds and was performed by Gregory Coleman. With the rise of hip hop in the 1980s, the break was widely sampled and became a staple of drum and bass and jungle music. It has been used on thousands of tracks of many genres, making it one of the most sampled recordings of all time. Neither Coleman nor copyright owner Richard Lewis Spencer received royalties for its use; Spencer said it was unlikely Coleman, who died homeless and destitute in 2006, realized the impact he had made on music.” Source: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amen_break
1:46 this OST has some of the best breaks I have ever listened to... I like getting to this part while the announcer says KO in the final round. That melody is the perfect ending for a tense match.
i just realized that in this picture that his entire eye is not red, i think he just has big red irises and no pupils, its kind of weird to look at it.
As a musician, this song hits hard with the EP hitting nothing but minor 9 chords. And the Japanese flair with the flute is epic tied together with the break beat.
This song takes me back to when I wrestled back in high school. There were matches I had where I could feel the beat of this song beating in my subconscious eardrums when they came down to the wire. These focused, quiet eye of the tornado like moments were so exhilarating. The shouts from the bleachers faded to silence, eyes locked with my opponent, both at 8 points with 30seconds left, and 1 takedown wins the match w/2 points. Any small lapse in judgment or sloppy move and it’s over. The breakbeats feel like all my muscles tensing up and preparing to exert maximum power. The nimble woodwinds are my mind clearing all distractions and reaching a point of still water calmness, creating a sound plan for victory. Sometimes I’d win, sometimes I’d lose. But everytime would be the fight of my life. This song catches that energy in its purest form and it’s beautiful.
Shakuhachi on top of breakbeats. Third strike's music was so much more adventurous and interesting than that of its successors that you had to wonder what happened with the latter.
I find several of Akuma's themes to be absolutely great for workout :) I once ran for over an hour in the woods listening to only a few of his themes on replay, they have a very motivational effect on me, at least. I overexerted myself that one time, wish i did that more often.
Nostalgia time! Back in MVSC2 Iron Man's "ground" infinite was the same button sequence as Raging Demon. The only difference was the timing and instead of a forward tap you would slightly hold UP/FORWARD because of the constant jump needed. I would always say Mesatsu a certain way when I would do it to people. It was to taunt them in a fun way, but also it was to remember my timing. I would do that about 5 or 6 times until I would get there life down far enough depending on the character, then end it with canceling that repulsar blast thing before saying MESATSU...GOU... PROOOTOONNN CANNNNOONNN. It was stupid but we had good times, those years before the Arcade Era was over...
Oro: *Wow! You possess an incredible level of Chi! That's what you call... Evil intent? Impressive for a young man like you!* Akuma: *I've heard about you, Sennin. Watch your words, or they will reveal your destruction.* Oro: *You claim to be the master of fists... This disturbs me... The road to true mastery is much harder. Let us travel it now...*
Akuma is the most badass character in FG history. He is a carbon copy of Zodd from Berserk but made into a playable character. Mainly because of their similarities. Both are warrior that embraced their dark powers. They love fighting. They really love fighting. They have code of honor. And have beautiful faces. But that does not make him bad. Akuma has his own unique stuff too. Akuma is a top tier but a top tier that is the only i like. Mainly because of his iconic Raging demon and he has sexy purple colored hadokens. Akuma players in TS are demon spawns but Akuma was made by a sadist. He is mix up character. I hate playing against Akumas but damn i can't just respect Akuma players for breaking their fingers. 9/10 character
You may notice that when Akuma faces me as his rival in third strike, there's no rival dialogue. This is because by then, we are no longer on speaking terms. We both know anytime we cross paths there's only one thing to do..... *Fight.*
Back when Akuma was only searching to get stronger even if it meant selling his soul and only looking for stronger opponents Also the time when he would sell fruit to you or even carry a baby
Akuma/Gouki should have the power to break barriers in Capcom's various universes traveling into them for worthy challenges and opponents returning him to his roots... a hidden boss/character!
In Super Street Fighter 4, when you pull off the raging demon, he says, "DIE ONE THOUSAND DEATHS!!!!!", but with my weird imagination, I thought he said " EAT SOME SAUSAGES!!!!"
I would love to see Akuma and Kenshiro from fist of the north star fight. Akums is definitely on Kenshiro's level. The thing with Kenshiro though is he can kill you just by pushing one of your pressure points so Akuma would have to be really careful. I would love to see the 100 crack fist against the shun goku satsu.
Something about this song maybe it sounds like wolves howling? I feel like if I never played this game and someone made me listen to this I would be able to recreate the entire stage in my head.

“Fight for what you believe in. Now die for it.”
That’s a cold ass bar
Akuma hard like that

"Your body assumed it's proper form when my fists tore it apart!" - Akuma/Gouki
Possibly the most badass quote ever in fighting game history.
Actually it would be this one from MSH vs. SF
"Fight for what you believe in. Now die for it." - Akuma/Gouki
Not really feeling that one to be honest.
"My fist knows no equal!" is mine.
"Die like your father, you pin-headed son of an ice cream maker!"
"My dreams are your nightmares" (Adon, Alpha 2).
Pro tip : NEVER fight someone in an abandoned road in Kyoto
Undead lol
Especially if that person has God Beats around there neck
Anyone who wear thoses are beasts
Japanese will run a gaijin thru court simply for defending himself in Japan. Don't hit Japanese they actually care more about they're own thsn foreigners
That's why no one will remember your name....
Another pro tip: Never bring or smoke weed in Japan.
This drumming is legitimately crazy insane.
Some Drum and Bass songs use Amen Break, that is the sample used in this song, but i recommend Jungle.
Is it good?
It's so fast that my ears are not working

"The path to mastery is lined up with corpses of the weak" AKUMA GOT THE BEST QUOTABLES EVER I SWEAR
Today I learned Akuma is in his 60's by the time of 3rd Strike
"Back in my day we didn't have EX moves"
“Strength is just a simple manifestation of immortality…”
This was Akumas best theme, well fitting to his ominous background stage
Best Akuma theme ever! Who else agrees with me?
Me too
Me
One of the best character themes in the whole franchise. When I think “Street Fighter” as a whole I think of this song
BevelBoyJack eh. When I think street fighter theme is think ryu’s themes
You can't dispute this I completely agree
i just realized that in this picture that his entire eye is not red, i think he just has big red irises and no pupils, its kind of weird to look at it.

SHOUSHI!

Yes!!!
Hearing this theme at night while looking at the moon feels great
Because he does look at the moon and he probably based on a demon gate protector or moon demon url but he always near the damn moon

Such a badass potrait and badass theme to go along with it. One of the best characters in any fighting game. SHOOSH!!!

Akuma's theme-killing moon [SF lll.3]
Mi hijo: presente
*Se acerca a la pizarra con un teleport*
Way more intense and fitting than his new theme.
I think it's a much better song than his SF4 theme, but I also think it fits less
Check out SF6 Akuma's new them "Shura." Immediately made me think of this track.

Came here to hear this supremacy. SF6 ver is menacing and cool, but this is more hype with power behind it.
0:48 is the reason why this is still the best upload of this track
Don't you mean 0:47?
capcom has tried three times now to make good akuma themes since sf3 and they've still never touched killing moon
i dont think he is gonna sugarcoat it
Killing moon is another track that could go well with a rainy day
Back when Akuma was only searching to get stronger even if it meant selling his soul and only looking for stronger opponents
Also the time when he would sell fruit to you or even carry a baby
Wait when does he hold a baby??
"You blight my vision" - Never change, Akuma
