Quite possibly the greatest computer game soundtrack of all time, Yuzo Koshiro’s Streets of Rage II proves the ubiquitous reach of rave music in ’92 with some 25 tracks of 16-bit house, techno, and breakbeats bound to trigger punch-drunk bouts of nostalgia with a certain generation of goggle-eyed gurners.
We haven’t played the game since we were nippers, and to be honest don’t really remember the soundtrack being quite so mental and rushy, but the evidence speaks otherwise, sandwiching the usual jazzy Japanese schmaltz along with some ridiculously funked-up rave numbers clearly influenced by NYC techno, UK bleep & hardcore and Italian piano house.
As ever it’s always impressive how much detail early game composers managed to juice out of those 16-bits of capacity, and this has got to be one of the nuttiest, most influential examples - pivotal, even - considering just how many homes across the world would have owned a copy in their living rooms and bedrooms.
