I remember reading an interview with the producer - he talked about how hard it was to make music on a 16-bit system like this. The Genesis didn't even have filters! Yet listen to what's going on here: there's ping-pong echos, trance gates, (fake) filter sweeps - all stuff you'd expect from dance music, and this was a video game in 1992! Back then to make good game music you had to be a great composer AND a tech wiz.
Yup, I feel that required ingenuity has long been forgotten and swept away, now everything is premade and easy to configure, the subtlety in this composer's technique is mind blowing. Same with the guy who composed for Donkey kong Country
@@maximiliancamacho9566 I think it's better now, because composers can focus in their music instead of tech limitations, some things were literally Impossible to do in 16 bit machines. Still, many 16 bit games had amazing soundtracks that still hold up to this day.
Yuzo should remake this Soundtrack with totays hardware. With modern sythneseizers. But also follow his original vision he had in mind back then and not copy modern trends of todays music.
@@NordkapSounddesign That's not possible. The "original vision" was already guided by the tech limitation. The guy made a script language for its own music.. Heck, he composed the street of rage soundtrack using a PC-88, a vastly inferior machine at the time. This guy creativity was fueled by limitations.
crisprapper Was it though because this sound was around before this soundtrack. I'm thinking Vogue by Madonna had a very similar sound two years before or do you mean in terms of video game soundtracks? Yuzo said that he copied the sound of the clubs at the time.
MartianManhunter1987 definitely in terms of game soundtracks, like you say he was massively inspired by club music. Imagine you're a US teenager these days going crazy about 'EDM' and then playing this game on an ancient console from the early 90s and hearing what is basically low sample rate versions of the stuff still being played in clubs. It's pretty crazy.
Without a doubt. Especially for brawlers. The soundtrack of this game makes the entire experience of moving across town and fighting like an epic Western or hard-boiled detective story. Like something legendary. Everything else is just average compared to Streets of Rage
For Halloween I dressed up as that guy with the green shirt holding the bat, the clothes and bat were the easiest to obtain, it took a while to make the DON'T WALK mask.
Probably! I got this game for free for "not crying" after having my ear stitched back together after smacking the table, slipping up on puppy piss first thing in the morning when I was 8 years old. The OST stood out to me even then as a genuine classic and I didn't really like "music", hehe
such a great soundtrack. the music of my childhood. will never forget getting a genesis for one of my birthdays in middle school and getting Streets of Rage 2 with it. we played it to death that day.
***** haha no need to disagree is not a matter of opinion, is a fact. The SNES was a port, plus check the sound fx side by side, the music is more techno-y which the SEGA MD was better at since it was YAMAHA chip. xP
What always tripped me out about this cover is the bald guy on the left. I always saw the legs of the guy that Blaze is leg-sweeping as the bald guy's legs when I was a kid, and even now I still kinda do it despite being able to see his real legs behind Blaze and Punk guy. But still, just look at it. If you're not paying close enough attention that big muscular bald guy has like super skinny legs in black jeans and work boots, just kinda sitting against the wall.
SoR2. The best video game soundtrack ever made or one of the very best, still haven't decided. EASILY in the top 5. EASILY. Without even blinking. A modern masterpiece. Also, one of the best 2d games ever made. A true classic. It brings so many memories from my childhood. A gamer since the 80's and a big sega (old sega) fan. Mind you, nothing, i repeat, nothing from VG music compares to VG music from the 80 and 90's. Look at this, a game from 93 that people now listen to its music which was made on a "primitive" soundcard. This is why this is a masterpiece. That is why for example, classical music will always be relevant and loved.
Definitely the best ever for me, almost every single track is a banger. I've heard all kinds of remixes of its OST and they're good but just lack the rawness of that Mega Drive sound. Nothing can touch this version of Expander for absolute panic techno carnage. Fun fact: my wife and I DJ'd back-to-back at our wedding and i finished off with the Streets of Rage Remake version of Go Straight 😁
That image on the back of the box is really creepy. I am just loving the box art overall on this. I remember as a kid looking at the back of beatem up games just being so excited to kick ass in all those different environments...
same dude, I had SOR1 on a 6-1 cart included with my Mega Drive, then my brother came home in 93 with this game which he borrowed from someone, MANNNNNN this game blew my mind.
Seriously, this is some amateur shit, man. The sign is apparently a few feet ahead and 10-12 feet in the air (otherwise that guy would never fit under it), yet it's casting a shadow on his torso as if it's connected to the building. Awful.
He looks like he has a sub-30 IQ. And just where is Blaze supposed to be? Is she doing a flying side kick? If so, since she's behind Axel and there is about 4-5 feet between him and Max, judging by her placement and the shadows beneath her, she must be about ten inches off the ground.
I think it was because Streets of Rage 2 was probably the pinnacle of the side-scroller beat'em up game. The jump in quality from Double Dragon or Battle Toads to the Streets of Rage games was absolutely massive. Better graphics, more moves, better audio quality and better soundtracks. Maybe it is my nostalgia speaking, but there was nothing to not like about this game.
Bojan Land, even those countless deaths were enjoyable in their own twisted way :P Part of me longs for the good old days where video games were still insanely difficult haha
@Bojan Land I showed SoR to my 9 years old nephew and he can't stop playing (he has PS4 and PC gamer in his home). SOR is one of the best games ever, period.
This and Sonic the Hedgehog were the games i played the most on the sega genesis. Echo the dolphin was a great game too. I had to borrow that one though and could never finish it.
This and SoR 1 ... Soundtrack to my childhood right there! Thought I was the Don playing theses games ... Signing my name as ACE on the scoreboard and shiiiiiit :-D
This is the best game OST ever period. Better than KOF 1996, Nights Into Dreams, Castlevania IV, Killer Instinct, Gran Turismo... this is the best ever no question possible.
I wont ever forget this game ever. My Favorite Was Blaze. I love her special moves. Alex's was awesome too. I still play this game and i cant ever get enough of the nonstop fights and the bosses battles :D. ( this will always be my number one game in my book besides Mortal Kombat (series), and final Fantasy 8)

I love the new graphics and all that there doing. Thanks for adding me on google plus :D
awesome game soundtrack to streets of rage game trilogy. this one is my favourite of the 3 classic games. and the best side scrolling beat em up ever in my opinion. for the genesis a classic.
As the first game I ever finished on my own, with no external help whatsoever, this game and the soundtrack hold a very special place in my heart. Under Logic, Slow Moon, Never Return Alive, and Revenge of Mr. X still blow my mind that they were on Genesis/Megadrive hardware. Then again, it was the musical genius Yuzo Koshiro who made them after all.
Real playlist in the videogame: 30:52 Intro 59:25 Player Select 0:00 Go Straight(Game) 9:27 Bar 5:48 Never Return Alive 36:31 Round Clear 19:43 Spin on the bridge Will continue...
Definitely one of the greatest video game soundtracks of the 90s, and a bona fide high quality dance music record in and of itself. Koshiro mashes up so many electronic sub-genres of the time, in a way I've never heard done since. Fucking genius.
this is why Streets of Rage will always be my favorite beat em up series. The music is top fucking notch. Final Fight, although very good, doesn't even compare to me.
This music is still amazing, and this game is still incredibly fun with or without friends. Much better with a friend though naturally. The Streets Of Rage fan Remake brought me back here... and I'll be back!
MrEasybitch I was 10/11 when my brother borrowed this from a friend of his, and I was hooked to SOR1, didnt even know SOR2 was out already! My mind was blownnn I eventually bought it from that same friend :P.
Yuzo koshiro actually created tools for his music on the genesis and supernes. That is why when you compare them to other soundtracks of the time, the quality itself is better.
the soundtrack for Streets of Rage 2 was composed by Yuzo Koshiro, along with three contributions from Motohiro Kawashima. It was composed using then outdated NEC PC-8801 hardware alongside Koshiro's own audio programming language. According to Koshiro: "For Bare Knuckle I used the PC88 and an original programming language I developed myself. The original was called MML, Music Macro Language. It's based on NEC's BASIC program, but I modified it heavily. It was more a BASIC-style language at first, but I modified it to be something more like Assembly. I called it Music Love'. I used it for all the Bare Knuckle Games."[3] The soundtrack was influenced by electronic dance music, specifically house, techno, hardcore techno,[4] and breakbeat.[5] The soundtrack for Streets of Rage 2 is considered "revolutionary" and ahead of its time,[6][7] for its "blend of swaggering house synths," "dirty" electro-funk and "trancey electronic textures that would feel as comfortable in a nightclub as a video game."[6]
I had this game as a kid, played it all the time. One time I was having a sleepover, and woke up in the middle of the night to see my friend doing something under his blanket while looking at Blaze on the cover.
Yuzo Koshiro level of awesomeness is Godlike. I mean, you MUST have skills to make a Megadrive/Genesis sound like that. The song "Intro" should be featured on a Best Songs of All Time list.
Man, some of these tunes. Hearing Dreamer.. somehow sounds like the kind of thing that could come from Japan in the 90s, specifically for a Japanese game. I can't see it being relevant any other way... but what a damn masterpiece in it's niche

ArrghhMatey This guy´s music was so good he eventually was invited by Clubs to play his stuff
+crisprapper this is a soundtrack that you could literally play in the clubs and people wouldn't know the difference

Oh I want to see pics of that lol
Are you for real? C'mon, that's just being basic!
It actually does look like the guy is wearing an oversized mask tbh.
that's totally Walter White from S1 of Breaking Bad
@@moarinternet i know right. How lazy of Sega to rip Breaking bad like that.
This is one of the best 90s video game soundtracks ever created. What Yuzo Koshiro was able to do with for the Genesis/Mega Drive... It's incredible!
That early 90s rave music vibe
I use to listen to the first level song as a "warm up" before hitting the club scene myself
Is this game the reason why I love house and techno nowadays and get these crazy flashbacks to my '90s rave days when I was 9?
Probably! I got this game for free for "not crying" after having my ear stitched back together after smacking the table, slipping up on puppy piss first thing in the morning when I was 8 years old. The OST stood out to me even then as a genuine classic and I didn't really like "music", hehe
It's certainly one of the reasons I grew to love dance music, although of course I didn't realize it at the time.
yes
Haha was thinking the same 2 secs ago. They programmed our mind with this...it's awesome
@@ChainsawGutsFuck haha glad you didn't cry man...if you tell that to a kid in 2020 he will sue your ass. ;)
such a great soundtrack. the music of my childhood. will never forget getting a genesis for one of my birthdays in middle school and getting Streets of Rage 2 with it. we played it to death that day.
My Genesis still works.
Project: One Man Army haha same. I got it when I was 4 years old 😂
now it is nearly 28 tho...time passes fast
To all SNES fanboys who say Sega MD had bad sound. This one is for you suckers, no OST on SNES sounds like this...
+SuperHns I am such a fanboy, but I have to admit the streets of rage suite is very outstanding.
+SuperHns Super adventure island does LOL
***** Really depends, EarthWorm Jim 1 and 2 were better games with better sound and music on Sega MD.
***** Same goes for Robocop vs Terminator.
***** haha no need to disagree is not a matter of opinion, is a fact. The SNES was a port, plus check the sound fx side by side, the music is more techno-y which the SEGA MD was better at since it was YAMAHA chip.

Bearded Frog for like 20 years I always thought he was sitting on something lmao
OMG I'm not the only one! It's bothered me for ages! Even just now it tripped me up for a moment.
The scariest part of this bald guy is that he's supposed to be Max, haha (look at his outfit!)
yeah and the guy on the left/back cover has a giant 'don't walk' robot head.
Yes!
got the sega genesis along with this game.....best day of my life..
The Greatest Videogame Soundtrack of All Time!

First one is better

Mega Drive's greatest game
Some of THE best and most interesting game music ever composed. This man Yuzu went crazy jesus.
This soundtrack is banging.
Man the music in this game is amazing, as a kid I loved the music and game but being an adult not I appreciate it way more.
25 year aniversary and we are getting STREETS OF RAGE 4! I hope to God that Yuzo Koshiro is on board to do the music.
This and Sonic the Hedgehog were the games i played the most on the sega genesis. Echo the dolphin was a great game too. I had to borrow that one though and could never finish it.

This songs brings back memory of me and my freind hanging out all day and coming to play this game. Good times

It seemed like SOR3 tried to resemble Final Fight, which didn't seem right, along with the overcooked soundtrack.
Onmysheet Which is Ironic how Final Fight 3 tried to resemble SOR 2 :P
Lol true. Final Fight 2's cover art is basically a complete rip-off of Streets of Rage 1's cover.
This music is still amazing, and this game is still incredibly fun with or without friends. Much better with a friend though naturally. The Streets Of Rage fan Remake brought me back here... and
I'll be back!
Another excellent hit that deserves to be in top 5 of best Sega Genesis / Mega Drive games of all time.
Genesis does...what Nintendon't!
I finally beat this game today. One of the best games on the Genesis!
Thanks for making this .......................................................

"There is a bad Streets of Rage track" said no one ever
Kama de Coco from Streets of Rage 3. Everything else is awesome though.

Melhor Trilha sonora de todos os tempos no mundo dos Games 🎶🏆💥👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😍😍
it remains of 90's club and house music i love the music and the game old school for life
This & DKC were hands down, the 2 best videogame soundtracks of all time. 👌🤌
Not DKC but I agree Streets of Rage 2 had an amazing soundtrack and I would also agree is one of the best of all time
This is my favourite game in the universe I just love this sound track
Yuzo koshiro actually created tools for his music on the genesis and supernes. That is why when you compare them to other soundtracks of the time, the quality itself is better.
the soundtrack for Streets of Rage 2 was composed by Yuzo Koshiro, along with three contributions from Motohiro Kawashima. It was composed using then outdated NEC PC-8801 hardware alongside Koshiro's own audio programming language. According to Koshiro: "For Bare Knuckle I used the PC88 and an original programming language I developed myself. The original was called MML, Music Macro Language. It's based on NEC's BASIC program, but I modified it heavily. It was more a BASIC-style language at first, but I modified it to be something more like Assembly. I called it Music Love'. I used it for all the Bare Knuckle Games."[3]
The soundtrack was influenced by electronic dance music, specifically house, techno, hardcore techno,[4] and breakbeat.[5] The soundtrack for Streets of Rage 2 is considered "revolutionary" and ahead of its time,[6][7] for its "blend of swaggering house synths," "dirty" electro-funk and "trancey electronic textures that would feel as comfortable in a nightclub as a video game."[6]
the intro have similarities with one song of Enigma
i dont remember wich one
You know you're getting old when your favourite videos on TH-cam are 10 or more years old.... 😢🎉😎
I never understood why Max was bald on the cover, was just weird to me.
Anthony damn I just now noticed that holy shit 🤯 lol
I don't remember the enemies that had a "DONT WALK" sign for a head
"16 gigantic megs of compound fractures!" hahaaa, love it.
Old skool techno at its best!
Absolute masterpiece!
I had this game as a kid, played it all the time. One time I was having a sleepover, and woke up in the middle of the night to see my friend doing something under his blanket while looking at Blaze on the cover.
you assume it was blaze, lol
o_O
I'd drop half of these in a club !!
Ant McKee exactly what Yuzo Koshiro did: th-cam.com/video/DwO4SJGd1zE/w-d-xo.html
The vinyl LP is selling for £300
Yuzo Koshiro stole half of these while at clubs
That box art is wicked! :D Long live Streets of Rage!
Streets of Rage2 was the game my brother and i stay up late busting up bad guys skulls .
i always wondered why Max is a total different person on the cover
I'm going straight to the bar, to dance this soundtrack with Electra
This OST includes 2 Unlimited's eurodance music materials in 90's.
Anyone ever try fighting with rollerblades? Shit isn't easy, to say the least.
Love that last song
fucking phenomenal soundtrack
Méga jeux d'une console nikel!!super du début à la fin;les musiques sont parfaites et le graphisme trop joli !!❤️❤️❤️
Yuzo Koshiro level of awesomeness is Godlike.
I mean, you MUST have skills to make a Megadrive/Genesis sound like that.
The song "Intro" should be featured on a Best Songs of All Time list.
Awesome soundtrack
The whole soundtrack is a masterpiece. My personal favorite is Ready Funk :D!!!
The Genesis had that B A S S
i love dreamer.
Man, some of these tunes.
Hearing Dreamer.. somehow sounds like the kind of thing that could come from Japan in the 90s, specifically for a Japanese game.
I can't see it being relevant any other way... but what a damn masterpiece in it's niche
