Yakuza Kiwami 2 Fantrack - Evil Within (Hiroshi Hayashi)

when knee surgery is tomorrow
shoutouts to my friend kodapop for doing the rap here LOL

[@syndixel9857]

I always found it funny that Hayashi's theme has a name like "Evil Itself" and he's just some dude. Great Kiwami 2 rendition!

[@william.9210]

"some dude" he's literally *THAT MAN*

[@cheesusabidas77]

​@@william.9210 it's a shame his dogma came to an end

[@SomeBreadDish]

​@@cheesusabidas77 Dogma? Didn't he go all the way to The End of The Drama?

[@massiveman4]

i like how he's also just absoulutely huge, but also very thin

[@cheesusabidas77]

@@massiveman4 i think he should be more huge

Kiwami 2 if it was good:

[@klaus.sfc01official30]

Yeah it sucks they couldn't remake somw of the songs due to copyright (i mean not having the original creator's allowance for a remake i think) But there is absolutely no excuse for using A instead of silent night in the credits. Who the fuck thought that was a good idea.

[@william.9210]

@@klaus.sfc01official30 they could've easily made a new track for hayashi & maybe add a deserved dynamic intro but instead doubled down

[@Hilversumborn]

At 1:28 I imagine Hayashi grabbing the pipes.

[@thelastblade1991]

it’s a very modern yakuza sounding song but I feel like the muffled rap parts and more harsher guitar feel like this is a mix of old and new. absolutely good shit, please keep it up I can’t get enough of your music

[@logen7959]

Guitar is sounding more like Grizzly Gold Fist from Kurohyou 2. Interesting change

[@dalelumina3]

kakizaki bgm is a remix of evil itself in the first place :xd:

[@salt2209]

ZA MADU DRAGGONU UKYOOOOOOOOOOOO TAAAAATSUUUUYAAAAAAA

[@roccolevrai9238]

RGG needs to HIRE your ASS right NOW, bro is dropping too much bangers 🔥🔥🔥

[@Goro_Akechi_Crow]

What a BANGER, also, the song really feels like it'll be a perfect fit for Persona 3 Boss theme!

[@Hilversumborn]

Yakuza 2 and Persona 3 did came out in the same year.

[@idfkimaclown]

This is so good. It works so well with the tone and style of Kiwami 2.

[@ZerothMask]

A fire remix for the a great boss fight done injustice in the remake. Man, I don't think I've been disappointed in any of your tracks so far.

[@Undergamer12]

The moment Kiwami 2 failed at being a good remake was when they didnt give Hayashi a theme like this. Thank you for finally giving us what we've been craving for years.

[@pizzakaden]

don't act like hes interesting enough to have a theme lol

[@Undergamer12]

@@pizzakaden Is not about substance. Its the presentation! In the ps2 he appears out of nowhere with enough health to be an amon, drops one of the best boss themes in the game and then dissapears of the series after getting mauled against the wall by Kiryu. My man used damm well his little screentime.

[@pizzakaden]

@@Undergamer12 oh sorry I didn't play the PS2 version. It must have been cut for a reason tho

[@Undergamer12]

@@pizzakaden Nono, its the same boss battle!! He had more health than average and the qte at the end was against the wall instead of the middle of the hallway making it a really brutal finisher. You could watch it on youtube, they drop the ball hard when remaking that battle.

[@alexander-ampm]

​@@pizzakadenCould have been if they didn't forget about him after this fight

[@Frozaru]

Love this merge of old and new elements of Yakuza/LaD music here! Thanks for giving what should've been in Kiwami 2. All your remixes and original tracks have been bangers too ngl, please keep doing what you do best!

[@kingofhorror4489]

YOU my friend are amazing

[@mat8791]

Hot damn this is GROOVY. Doesn't have the same entire feel in comparison to the original but its still really good.

[@mrrelatable.]

If persona ost's weren't fucking around.

[@snxffys6436]

finally someone else sees it

[@EDEN-xj3qm]

Shit man, collab album between you and Mercury would be yakuza/lad ost enjoyer's wet dream.

[@TRDEWH]

Damn, this translates the OG theme to the K2 aesthetic REALLY well. Friggin killer, dude. Always kinda bummed me out how many songs they just pulled out in K2.

[@chrismudi]

Do you have an email for business inquiries or project collaborations?

[@NikolayHizenprof]

That Man... he has Evil Within himself

[@whatisface917]

I think the best one so far. Feels much more fun and light hearted then the other remix's.

[@ShadowThe771]

How many of you thought that this dude was going to be a reoccurring villain after 2? Be honest.

[@dalelumina3]

HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN 😭

[@snxffys6436]

if lau ka long came back after he was literally dead i think hayashi might return at some point soon

[@biz117]

i love how this guy just shows up and steals the show

[@spamton_main]

PEAK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Bile-mz8ze]

I'm captivated by this track it's so banger

[@abox6363]

Now that's the spirit of the fight! Outstanding work, keep going, don't stop!

[@GGalactigal]

a friend of mine co-wrote and did the rap vocals btw. lyrics should go live sometime tonight, but i warn yall they’re pretty bad - we were mostly inspired by yakuza 1 english dub and like, yuno miles, so they’re very shitposty LOL

[@dalelumina3]

this will play when hayashi is in yakuza 8

[@neon_844]

“No Hayashi! Don’t succumb to the Evil Within!” “…What?” *HIROSHI HAYASHI, Go-Ryu Clan Officer, Omi Alliance*

[@boiboi5309]

Listening to this while I play Kiwami 2

[@Blazertazer]

This hits hard and it loops perfectly

[@TheLegendarySuperElmo]

if ryu ga gotoku studios saw galactigal fansound tracks : *We'd like to hire you*

[@slmb_b]

What software did you use to make this?

[@massyarchai146]

Need a mod that adds these.

[@Alex169o]

KIWAMI 2 IF IT WAS GOOD WITH MY HIROSHI HAYASHI

[@tomatheman]

Amazing

[@suparsonik]

Will you do Beast Itself too?

[@Hyperion-jz5fj]

all these yakuza fan tracks you have been making are fantastic! are they going be available for download or purchase somewhere in HQ (would love to support you directly!)

[@DaniZeAlmighty]

the true yakuza guy

[@DoktorMyth]

Now, how would I wonder what Yoneda's own theme would sound?

[@FreddyFaded]

BONGOS????

[@yba_sweat]

banger within frfr

[@ivoeggetterobotnick3598]

This is really cool

[@prodbymercury]

goes so hard

[@newi2434]

Уour tracks are fire! I was wondering if you use real musical instruments or do you do everything in the music making software itself?

[@CopperLoveAndKisses]

peakster

[@58Hecc]

I guess there's no other choice.

[@wacky-physics7506]

Tropical grunge

[@James-Salty-Sunderland]

Hayashi for the win

[@ColorSettings]

Sega, please hire GGalactigal cause these Fantrack are banger af🗣🔥💯

[@amirtheweirdo2189]

Nobody's asked so far, so I'll go ahead: What did you actually sample for the rap parts? at least to me it doesn't sound like the ones from Evil Itself lol

[@ShinjiDrive]

Personaje desaprovechado. Buen tema

[@weedGato]

HE'S EVIL ITSELF!!!!!!

[@Scorpivan169]

Kiwami 2 without green filter

[@Norrabal_anims]
