Double Dragon II: The Revenge- Arranged Soundtrack

[@TheNightRichard]

Listening to this made me realize that the mission 2 music is basically "Easy Lover" by Phil Collins.

[@richardoaks8333]

Dude you're so right. This was ripped!!!

[@voydent]

Rofl silent pursuit is a complete ripoff of phil collins easy lover

[@SJReid82]

Roar of the Twin Dragons is just an epic 80s anthem. Could just as easily hear it in a Rocky movie or some Dragon Ball-esque anime from the day. Just a pure face-melter of a guitar solo in the middle of that thing. Absolute perfection.

[@DiamondCarter100]

I have never heard an arranged soundtrack to a video game before, and I have always like playing DD2 the music at that time was really good for that game, but to hear it differently in this format is some what genius.

[@michelvanderlinden8363]

26:06 oh yeah. thats my jam right there. Such an incredible hype moment when you hit that second phase of the boss and it actually felt like a final boss fight.

[@martinm6093]

final and epic, fight of the century

[@soyborne.bornmadeandundone1342]

It's video game boss incarnate honestly. His name is literally the shadow boss ffs lol. Koolest sounding name ever and yes, he's a master of whoopin azz. Only a dragon performing at top levels can take him down. The fight starts with him being a sneaky invisible a hole and the player must rely on instinct alone to take him on. After a few good hits he gets mad and stops hiding and now he's coming at you with serious anger and a few dirty new moves. Besting him here and now is the most legendary feeling. There's a reason why double dragon 2 is the goat of side scrolling beat em ups haha. This is just one of the many reasons.

[@gunhed67]

This is one of the greatest albums of all time

[@YudaHnK]

100%! Clearly inspired Phil Collins too

I spent many days on this game. Play, replay and re-re-re-replay. NES + Double Dragon 2 = the best combo for me.

Fantastic Songs. Marcaram época de uma grande legião de jogadores de Arcades aqui no Brasil e console na época 8 bits como o nintendinho, super famicon, bit system, Phantom system. Essa sim era a geração que curtiu as melhores trilhas sonoras dos vídeo games. Obrigado por postar essa raridade.

[@backwardinary]

07:22, the band has noticed this song sounds like "easy lover" by the Genesis. They have even used the same intro LOL

[@lechibredejeanmichetrogneu2455]

By Phil Collins in Solo, not Genesis

[@andrewschumm1848]

[@RunLikeAVillain]

How can you not love this? They'd not only do legitimate albums of good video game soundtracks, but also meld it with late 80's Japanese pop, bizarre Kenny G sax and a weird interpretation of mid-80's Pantera / Judas Priest-like guitar work. It's insane, but it's also beautiful. From 37:09 to the end is a pretty good example of the last point.

[@TFIGBassPlayer]

The mission 2 theme is my favorite. This collection of music is good.

[@TheCodedtestament]

The game’s soundtrack is what it is. It’s not one of the most memorable soundtracks in the history of the NES, but it still features a handful of catchy themes. The ending theme in particular is a highly inspired and memorable song, and it goes without saying that this theme is the best one in the game.

[@captainmartin1219]

+TheCodedtestament I guess to each his own as the soundtracks was always one of my favorite nes soundtrack. Man the nes had some good music back in the day.

@@rodolfoperez744 Kazuhiro Hara and Nobuhito Tanahashi arranged this soundtrack.

[@RunLikeAVillain]

It’s an arranged soundtrack album from Japan that was released to coincide with the Famicom version of Double Dragon II. From ‘89, I believe. It’s awesome, yes. But it’s official and from around the time the nes version was made. (The arcade game was a year prior) Around the same time, Technos Japan licensed the soundtrack from one of their other games to the same band "O'Bits" (session musicians?) to release an arranged CD OST for Super Spike V'Ball / US Championship V'Ball. It's not as memorable, but still very good.

[@funkaddictions]

Great stuff! I think that 07:22 is inspired by Phil Collins - Easy Lover. Great rework!

[@inkmage4084]

I remember my older brother and his friend playing this. I thought the music was so damn cool (I was a little kid lol). The soundtrack influenced a little comic I was drawing because of this game, WAAAAAY later in high school, I actually made a little game based on the comic, which had been called "Epidemic of Violence"... Currently in the process of remaking it.
