Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Soundtrack - Jazz be Damned

Jazz Jackrabbit 2 by Orange Games and Epic Games, music by Alexander Brandon.

[@EliteHaunter]

This song started, you immediately knew this is the last map ... ah nostalgy

[@benik6429]

1:05 eargasm

[@beklopptervollidiot1706]

Jokes were on us tho as this song actually plays for 2 levels

[@TheShuuman]

I come back to this part and it just really hit me that in the instruction booklet it flat out states that Devin unleashed the gates of hell in this final rush to stop him. Think about that Openin hell wasn't the end game, it wasn't even a priority for that damn turtle HE DID IT JUST TO SLOW JAZZ AND SPAZ DOWN And even having literal hell shoved in their faces didn't stop them. Gosh I miss the 90s and how absurd game events could get.

[@OSLP]

Why can't every game have good music such as this?

[@ThinBear4]

OS LP Good games, and good things in general, take a lot of effort to make. It's much more profitable to feed another Modern Warfare to the people and reap the gains.

[@spyritwalker]

+OS LP As an writer of my country said: produce original pieces of art is a hard and ungrateful task.

[@grindingmantras7434]

I dont know the answer. But I know two games with awsome soundtracks: Ragnarok online and Undertale.

[@Justuas]

Some games do have at least.

[@Solaxe]

stupid question. It's like asking "why everything can't be great"

[@anirudhviswanathan3986]

Damn, Alexander Brandon makes most guitarists and keyboardists in the prog/heavy metal industry blush like babies. This is soooooo damn good, the entire soundtrack in this game can be an entire separate music album on its own.

[@akrammeziane9979]

This is so well made. First time i played this level , the moment this theme played i immediately knew its the final level.

[@lacrima152]

Oooh, I remember that level and falling into that long, long void, not knowing what hides down at the bottom. Creepy! Ah, the 90's, good times, I miss them a lot, I miss my childhood 😢

[@DarkNebby]

Same too. Play that game in 2009

[@HawkWater]

I still remember when i was scared looking at that background

[@tearzeromagz5124]

Green Catcher It can still scare you. If you let it. Sort of akin to a demon.

[@DeaFX]

This is like Metal music converted into videogame music. and it sounds just awesome

[@hoovy1163]

I think this game's ost is one of the reasons why i subconsciously grew up and started to love metal

[@StaffanDeluxe]

2024 and still come back to listen 👂 ❤

[@jessjamezon9222]

me too🤩

[@tygrontix]

Best soundtrack ever, this game has a special place in my heart

[@AhmedTarek-yc9ik]

Is there a someone hear it in 2020❤️?

[@josephinejeyarani4805]

Yeah bro, still waiting to play that game🤓

[@Cenabull]

Yes!

[@mrsgamer9218]

🥰

[@djyoshiman9448]

Heck yes, it revolves back in circles for me every year.

[@abubakarboyi9766]

Hello

[@crylune]

I miss my childhood. I got this game from a CD with random games on it that got given to me when I had a Windows 98 PC, it had Age of Empires 2 Gold Edition, Jazz Jackrabbit 2, Re-Volt... It was the best time of my life and now I wish I could go back in time :(

[@reveriestardust]

Jazz and Re-volt, those were the times.

[@GrimReaper-bv9ls]

AlexM I swear to Lord I saw absolutely different text in your comment before I clicked 'show more comments'. Something about let the trolls be, you always tried to evade them or run past them but they followed you till the end... Anyway, indeed fellas these were the times *sighs*

[@hyperUFO]

It's funny and interesting because I think there are more cases like this, I also got this from some random CD ALSO WITH those other games you mentioned and more classics that were traded in the past when Internet wasn't accesible for all people.

[@yernow8216]

i still have my box with working windows 98 where i have these old games and some more :P. Its good to sit there, play old games and forget about everything else :>

[@riptoast8856]

i also got this game on a cd my buddy from primary school gave me that had lots of random mostly shareware games on it. you can also still go back in time, people are playing this game still and there are servers online. i play this game on lan parties with my friends often! there is a huge mod for this game called jazz jackrabbit 2 plus

[@deathseraph2121]

My favourite games: 1. Jazz jackrabbit 2 2. Diablo 2 - Lord of Destruction 3. Both of them

[@SCHAAAD]

Were ye born round the year 92?

[@Zelkrow]

Me too! And Age of Empires 2 😂

[@purplehippopotato]

Mine: 1 zoo tycoon 2 2 the madagascar game 3 spore 4 fnaf 5 kemono friends 6 jazz jackrabbit 2

[@Nikkenator]

Dink Smallwood was awesome too!

[@netabolt6546]

5 - Elderscrolls IV Oblivion 4 - Jazz Jack Rabbit 1&2 (prefered 2nd over the 1st) 3 - Legend of Zelda ocarina of time 2 - Rayman 3 hoodlum havoc 1 - Rayman 2 the great escape

[@likeabossisaboss5908]

this lvl scared me when i was little,but now it's ok

[@Soataaj]

Play it late at night x-x

[@OlviMasta77]

@Thomas Britton or Quake/Doom/Diablo at that age.. my sis did D:

[@samw2670]

Man this song just evokes "time to get shit done" vibes

[@MncMarcos]

Brandon cites Dream Theater as one of his inspirations, and you can tell that in songs like this one, it really reminds me of Dream Theater's keyboardist.

[@dokidoki5162]

Jazz jacrabbit forever

[@user-qg3cs8de2v]

2022

[@yuomovaeh3028]

the main synths in this game are still one of the best iv heard

[@floydbutnotsopink6328]

Same

[@BarsAliOzkesen]

the times man, the times.

[@oliwiabogusz3354]

Hnnn, that feel, this soundtrack is so damn good on so many levels...

[@ondrez5114]

Was that pun intended?

[@oliwiabogusz3354]

Oh, I didn't think about it xD but yeah

[@ondrez5114]

:)

[@JSpyx]

Absolutely LOVED the background paintings in here. sooo cool.

[@therealseanw.stewart2071]

Magical. Absolutely magical.

[@NWDM1H]

Love this soundtrack. It's like every track in this game is awesome, but this one tops them all. Such a good finale to this game.

[@LAPCGames]

My favorite track

[@bryanpar3220]

Same

[@eragons1894]

For some reason this feels the most nostalgic out of all tracks for me (equally with main menu and laboratory theme).

[@ANabih-uo3zy]

1:07 my favorite

[@dlucy1373]

Temazo esa canción .. 2023

[@797gaming]

Despit that I'm a Sonic fan, this game has a fucking amazing soundtrack. Not even Sonic 3 can live up to this.

[@balllord8580]

I feel like both Sonic 3 and JJ2 have amazing soundtracks

[@Ilphyr]

It was the music from this game that made me get Deus Ex... (they've got the same composer).

[@MountainDaughter]

Amazing game amazing soundtrack they really dont make em like this anymore! Thanks Alexander Brandon and thanks for uploading em!!

[@bryanpar3220]

This soundtrack should be in the rewind 2019

[@hannak.5401]

I listen to this in the gym on the running track, really gives me a lot of energy

[@jaimdiojtar]

someone hearing this soundtrack in 2021???

[@NWDM1H]

Yep!

[@Krsman3]

Fits the final level

[@a3win]

here even in 2024

[@malawisupasoldier7478]

I wish gametal would do a remix of this

[@maunty1984]

Whoever composed this song definitely smokes fancy type of weeds

[@dr.wolfgangvonbushwickinth550]

Burnin' biscuits

[@jakomeisselitulppa]

where did games like this disappear? good side-scrolling action with awesome music as this... nowadays it feels like it's all about how good games look at...

[@pablovirus]

The background of the stage is so trippy

[@Vallandriel]

Alexander Brandon is a genius. Check his other masterpieces !

[@XzorlachX]

@Suffering191 Glad to hear that not everyone has forgotten about Nox. :D Love that game, Jazz Jackrabbit 2 too.

[@paulvarus859]

good old days

[@matapegheata7257]

In my days this game was awesome, the soundtrack too, as you can all see, erm, I mean hear

[@DeGroteLaaf]

The game is still cool, and people are still active on multiplayer. If you still have the game you could upgrade it to play every game-mode in multiplayer. Just look for Jazz Jackrabbit 2 plus. And even without all that, it's a damn awesome game. Especially as a couch co-op.

[@ItsMarciwuuu]

This Tune is Freaking Awesome ! Love JJ2 :3

[@UrosUki]

i love this game my favorite game i every play and complete

[@randomchaosrefusionatevect1602]

They fail to acknowledge even suffering casualties.. and think that it's not even Real!

[@randomchaosrefusionatevect1602]

Life is a Game! Aren't ye Scared even one Bit?! Dang!

[@666dsurge]

My favourite song from this f*ckin' good game!

[@user-pm6xu8tt7u]

2024 here ?!

[@BanditOfBandwidth]

Now that I've heard a few soundtracks again, I'm gonna play this game again =)

[@bukinnear]

Na, I've found a flaw: They don't go for long enough XD

[@bryanpar3220]

NEW YEAR "2019"

[@aymanemad8155]

I love this song

[@klemondo]

Getting goosebumps hearing this, the memories

[@sevarudimov9669]

Mario Forever: Submit a Level Project Round 2 Results - Phantom Sapphire's Infernal Carnival-1 Theme.

[@georgemccartney8906]

Loved those statues in the background

[@SelimSerkanOnur]

I love the looking of spiked skulls at the background

[@Tinkuwu]

When I was a kid and my brother an I took turns trying to beat this level.... Man those were good times.

[@UrosUki]

best game

[@Sorgblad]

this , guys is pure epic metal:D

[@KesorodaBlk]

This almost feels like a Turrican-style track. I'm glad I found this through Pink Kitty Rose's Randomizer stream!

[@rwall514]

Joel was right about Pizza Tower being similar to Jazz Jackrabbit.

[@riteshtewari7290]

The first start was creepy n adventures. I have recently completed this game with my friend...

[@DJ_MH_Remixes]

Still beter than top40 2023+

[@ShhhHhhhz]

I remember finding a empty void without much platform just to sit there admiring the background; huge Asian shrine-like things covered in creepy tusks and spikes looming over T-rex and Triceratops skeleton remains. Meanwhile hearing the song over and over again and never get tired of it.

[@lsiper7290]

M E M O R I E S I loved this game to bits :3 miss my childhood this is the song that gets all of the stress out of my system every time I listen to this song just makes me cry because of how good it is.

[@mumphies2145]

Dashie be damned

[@Hydrochoerusisthmius]

2024 BIG TIME !

[@randomchaosrefusionatevect1602]

Lives of Bunnies Replaced just like that!

[@CeeeX]

What are you talking about? This track brings memories back....not a freaking sex scene .___.

[@Happytreefriendsfan3]

Still, saying "one of the few" is an insult, because that indicates he means a small number of games. There are A LOT of games with great soundtracks, i just mentioned some.

[@omarsameh5007]

this boss was nighmare for me , hes really op with his tornado , i remember when i was a kid do my best to kill him but failed then i come to solution that i use freeze weapon then switch to normal weapon to hit him once and then freeze again and keep switch until he die it wasn't easy although because i can't aim perfectly with his crazy tornado move everywhere

[@MrKriz98]

I got that game when i was 5 years old and could't beat the boss in hippie. Then i forgot everything about the game. I just remembered it last week. Happily i found the game! and beated the last level yesterday. Im 13 now. The favorite game of my childhood :D

[@RadikAlice]

I've beat the original, but having heard this elsewhere (a map for Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart, funnily enough) it makes me wanna give it a proper shot. Only ran the GOG release to see how it was, and test JJ2+ The map's Polychrome Polygon Zone, Virtua Racing-type visuals and this banger is a strange but awesome mix

[@ArcadeStriker]

Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy I didn't expect anyone mentioning that in the comments here! (I'm the Author of ArcadePak, the mappack where said track using this music is featured) Glad to know that you enjoyed it! I also have to try out JJ2 myself since it does seem a bit reminscent of Sonic, but never have played it yet (I actually found the song because it was used in the Reelism mod for Doom)

[@RadikAlice]

@@ArcadeStriker Yo! Hello! And I see, the rabbit hole continues. How funny, I've played Reelism too If you already have a GOG account definitely get it there, as JJ2+ is a downloadable extra. Game runs fine on Win10, but JJ2+ fixes the menu scrolling non-stop which makes selecting stuff hard as hell

[@brandontorres4095]

0.75 is a good speed, try it

[@Oscarmattonepazzo]

Vapor

[@Dark_Voice]

@jakomeisselitulppa That maniac that after more than 10 years I still remember and hear to it's song and sometimes even play it.

[@Fawriel]

... the background tiling just made me realize that the reason this game is so easy is probably in part because they balanced it for a lower resolution. Since it just zooms in and out rather than scaling everything up or down. So enemies like that devil running towards you might pose an actual problem when you can't see it coming from a mile away.

[@mayouy6267]

I miss these old days :((

[@spawnx7032]

sinds im Just 11 years old, back in 2010 (I was 3 years old!) I loved playing Jazzjackrabbit2 on the computer. And I still love it😊

[@crylune]

Glad you made this game part of your childhood. It was basically the entirety of mine

[@returnedtomonkey8886]

You played this as part of your childhood in 2010? You make me proud kiddo.

[@GT-wo5jj]

2022❤️

[@m3gAm37aLmAnX]

This track is SO bad-ass that it totally suits the final world :D

[@cakestalker]

Sounds pretty good to be damned in hell...

[@fearlessx2146]

Damned🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿😈

[@rffy62346]

HD remaster when?

[@stopsliding8355]

Never :(

[@sherif_moh6med]

maybe after million years.

[@TheAlmightyGream]

0:26 - 0:36 best part

[@sebastiencharlier7295]

it's similar to level of Super Castlevania 4 Forest Of Monsters

[@randomchaosrefusionatevect1602]

Life Depicted like a Sequenced magazine of Toy Directives.. the Hardcore Gamers are the ones Self Aware.. yet they Sweat to be the most Aware one.. Because Rocking that Turret with VR Goggles feels so Very Very Serious! Yet the Driver needs Turrets too.. It's Intimate!

[@Conquistador19]

Imagine this music playing while killing a near-impossible boss who is skyscraper sized in an MMO game. fuck yeah JJ2

[@Capris9x]

Best song in the whole game hands down.

[@LichBane483]

I read the same comment as I posted several years back on a video with this song, and decided to post it since I couldn't find the original one. Don't take me wrong though, this game was my childhood.

[@randomchaosrefusionatevect1602]

Metaphoristics are still very much Accurative.... True Horrors!

[@danyamahafz1]

Todavia lo sigo jugando en el 2012. jejeje.

[@GonzaLmon-]

Y aun en 2020 por lo menos yo ;)

[@ticn]

I was sooo good at this game... and has better music than other games today! I used to play this game with my brother when we were kids... Now we grown up and all these crap music today still dont match this! Ahh, i had an awesome gamer childhood! I was best at this game in my city!

[@lesbazyra]

Best song from this game.

[@Bronynomous]

Cheers for you for uploading these awesome masterpieces of video game music!

[@Zarpaziones]
