Absolutely agree. I had gotten it for my birthday, had no idea the second one was even a thing. Playing as Arica’s was so awesome and hearing this really set the stage.
The ever present snare in the original versions is what makes it so intense for me. Its seems the remixes tried to pack as many instruments as possible in. Simplicity is sometimes better.
When I first played Kingdom Hearts II, I was just starting middle school. This and Dance to the Death were my favorite tracks. But haven't played it since then as I borrowed it from one of my cousins. When I finally revisited the game a few months ago through 1.5+2.5, I was actually confused because I remembered it sounding different. For some reason, it never crossed my mind that the soundtrack would be remixed for the remaster.
It is kinda shame that KH doesn't have more tracks like this. I know a lot of orchestral pieces have some intensive beats and all but this is somewhat more "raw" in its melody and intensivity. It resembles Yoko's work on some other brands (like boss theme from Legends of Mana). While her battle themes in KH series are good, they are perhaps too ambientic for my tastes. This also kinda juxtaposes Disney's more rounded thematic, which is plus.
I think another good intense/raw boss theme similar to this on a game that Yoko worked on was Xenoblade 1, it's main boss theme (One who gets in our way/an obstacle in our path) is also one of the more intense/dire boss themes I've heard and it's really good, I'd recommend it if you're looking for something more like that
There's something "the pot bubbles over" about the 0:44 part. I guess that's about how much it'll take for the tension to turn into either you or your opponent getting clowned.

Objective: Defeat mutated Irving with the help of Chris and Sheva. Objective #2: As soon as it comes ready to strike, use to stun it for a bit and attack while its defenses are down.

Thanks for the extended music, but to be honest, in my personal opinion, 30min music is the best! I miss brawlBRSTMs5, his TH-cam account is now suspended & he has the longest music by far, but this will have to do for now.
Shut up. Kh3 had mostly huge boss fights and they sucked. Also how about the big bird in the land of dragons or the experiment or the other fight in Halloween town or genie Jafar or the huge battle versus no heart or cerebrus or that big thing in the pride lands

Though i generally think this version is better after hearing getting used to the HD remix versions for years i kinda think this version is missing something idk what I also think the hd version is missing things but those are different things Edit: i found a version (remix?) That is basically the hd and og version played at the same time and i think it's almost perfect it has the best of both worlds :) th-cam.com/video/UvfNTsFQ3fs/w-d-xo.html This is the version i mean
all of the original kingdom hearts 2 songs are better than the hd remix. For some reason my friend believes they're the same even though he played the original for years....
@MrHeavyweapop There's not just one it comes after learning about societies such as freemasonry hermeticisim occult symbolism and then you just put it all together remembering the symbolism such as stained glass in dive to the heart dark paths such as Riku eternal light dark ears etc and themes you've seen as a child that matured since you've become an adult
ISTG I was searching for a Castlevania song that starts like this song because it lived in my head rent free for months and I was confident it existed and now that I've found this, idfk! Is this one of two songs that start with that sick piano riff? Or one of one and I just brain farted hard enough to waste several hours looking for a Castlevania song that didn't exist, even though I have no memory of find this song before? Never played KH. Have played portrait of ruin.

Just noticed there's a similarity at 0:30 of this and 3:38 of Metallica's Creeping Death (especially if you tune the song down a whole step: th-cam.com/video/rD96bAoF-5g/w-d-xo.html) Pretty cool as I love both songs!
@@jesseroberts1041 Haha, yeah I do that too whenever I make any music. If there's a part of a song I really like, then I'll try to sneak in a hint of it. ;)
I get the orchestral appeal of tge remake but this one kinda has a SNES Music Charm that I prefer on it's own. I never played the game though so I can't say which is more fitting

It's annoying how kids learn about Kingdom Hearts from the Game which doesn't do anything about inappropriate stuff on their site unless Ruben Sim points it out wide open for them.
@@Taurus_. mate, it's not that deep. Just be happy that people can even learn about this series instead of getting mad that they didn't learn about it the way you wanted them to.
When I first heard this in 2005 i knew what was up. Really set the tone of the newness for KH2
Yup such a fresh, unique vibe in KH2
Absolutely agree. I had gotten it for my birthday, had no idea the second one was even a thing. Playing as Arica’s was so awesome and hearing this really set the stage.
Kingdom Hearts is such a unique series. Nothing can compare. It's held onto that uniqueness for at least 2 decades so far.
@@AlmightyPolarBearCouldn't agree more
@@AlmightyPolarBearbest move Disney could do to associate with such a talented dev team and license
The Twilight Thorn is such a cool looking first boss for a game and the song just makes it all the more better.
Would it be better for the Tension Rising music to be played by KH 3 during Twilight Thorn battle?
It really fits with its noodly and freaky movements.
First time I fought that boss I kept dying
This song really made that particular boss fight stand out.
The ever present snare in the original versions is what makes it so intense for me. Its seems the remixes tried to pack as many instruments as possible in. Simplicity is sometimes better.
I love this version and the Reaper's version in 3. The remaster's composition of this song doesn't sound as good as either of those.
originals will always be better
Something about the og kh2 music just does it for me.
Perfect soundtrack
originals will always be better
"до конца аука 11 минут, на первом месте Хезерс..."
The whole start just give me chills, the good kind.
Always loved this version better. The remix songs are cool but these are better
Agreed. 👍
originals will always be better
this is the best version in my opinion
Man why can't this theme be in Smash Ultimate like come on this music is really the best theme to battle in the game.

yeah , it's the best song of all with differences
I love the most replayed part of this is the first second.

Sucks we never got more than just Twilight Thorn for giant Nobody boss battles. I know OrgXIII are nobodies but I'd rather fight cool monsters.
I agree. Well, not on the I'd rather part, but more giant Nobody bosses akin to the Heartless fights in KH1 would've been cool.
Shut up. Kh3 had mostly huge boss fights and they sucked. Also how about the big bird in the land of dragons or the experiment or the other fight in Halloween town or genie Jafar or the huge battle versus no heart or cerebrus or that big thing in the pride lands
