      The SNES may have ultimately won due to a better, more expansively impressive gaming library. But music wise; I honestly think that the SEGA Megadrive/Genesis easily gave them competition from time to time!

    • @Intrinseque52

    • @overnightdelivery
      @overnightdelivery 2 місяці тому

      ​@@Intrinseque52Can't agree with that completely. Yeah the SNES had many games that sounded better simply because the Genesis often had inexperienced people composing the music.
      Overall though sound was usually heavily compressed and the sampling rate was often poor on SNES. Usually around half that of the Genesis. On one hand this saved cartridge space and allowed for more data in games. But consequently sound was muddy and not nearly as clear as the best Genesis games. But on TVs with mediocre built-in speakers most people couldn't hear a difference.

  • @unparalleledaesthetics7346

    In my honest opinion, this is one of, if not, the BEST franchise that Sega has created. The music is top-notch, being catchy, and conveying how the game is meant to be played: Fast-paced with confidence in your abilities. Hearing the title screen for the first time, I immediately fell in love with the game, and it's soundtrack. I would spend hours on end browsing the options just to listen to the soundtrack. The storyline is fairly simple, giving you the option to become the next syndicate boss, or to destroy the syndicate entirely. The characters of Adam, Axel, and Blaze are all great. I especially loved the little tid-bits they gave at the title opening, with Adam using boxing and his hobby being bonsai. It helped to give at least a small amount of life to the sprites on the screen. I may have nostalgia goggles on since I've played this game ever since I was born, but I still feel that if I had played this game for the first time in this present day, I would still love it as much as I did that first day I turned on my Genesis years ago. And if I said that I didn't tear up a bit the first time hearing the good ending theme, I would be a liar. No game has influenced my life as much as streets of rage has, and I have to give this game a perfect score of 10/10. Sega needs to bring this franchise back, with the same amount of effort and love that was put into Sonic Mania. Sega has a history of shitting out half-assed Sonic games (with the exception of mania), and neglecting the hundreds of franchises that they built upon during their golden years. Streets of Rage is a classic, and I consider this game to be in my personal game Hall of Fame. Yuzo Koshiro definitely made a masterpiece with this soundtrack. He still DJ's every now and then, playing his beloved soundtrack from SOR for the public. I would say being able to witness that is on the top of my bucket list, and always will be. There is nothing like it on this earth, and I doubt that there ever will be.

      Still such a great tune. As a kid who only had a NES back then, I was in total awe when I heard this at the first boss, playing it at a friend's house. You can hear the composer was also a lot into acid house/early house and other electro music which was rising at the time, which gave it attitude. Megadrive/Genesis CAN produce some solid tunes, if you put some effort to it, and in this case it totally payed off. This game along with Sonic really tested my loyalty towards Nintendo, lol.

    26:09 Despite this awesome game has being released in 91, this track is a "message" from the 80's decade that fits the picture where everything was very close to perfection. The so called golden era of everything marked the transition of music, cinema, outfits and of course gaming! 16-bit machines were arriving, disco-pop and r&b were passing the torch to house music... everybody knew at that time a new ERA was about to begin, the 90's.

      The cartridge of this game IIRC has a capacity of 8 MBit - that equates to 1 Megabyte (yes just one). It's sequel SoR 2 was one of the first games that came on a 16 MBit cart (2 Megabytes) - considering that, compression was something special in those days.

    Yuzo Koshiro was able to replicate the sounds of the Roland TR-808 and TR-909 drum machines, along with the Roland TB-303 bass synth, on the Mega Drive's Yamaha YM2612 sound chip. This was an incredible technical feat that made it possible to bring house and techno music to game consoles.

    • @superscatboy
      @superscatboy 3 роки тому +2

      Tbh getting those drum sounds out of the YM2612 isn't terribly hard. The overall orchestration is the part that impresses me, it's hard to get such a full and balanced sound out of so few tracks with no real production tools to speak of.

    • @m1sterlurk
      @m1sterlurk 3 роки тому +2

      It should be noted that the primary competitor to the Genesis, the SNES, had an 8-voice wavetable system providing its sound and music. The effect this had was that SNES games were easier to compose soundtracks for and more "realistic" sounds were attainable, but the SNES had a tendency to sound somewhat "muddy" compared to a well-produced Genesis soundtrack like the Streets of Rage series.

    At the time, it felt like no other video game composer was taking on house, hip hop, metal and other influences into video game music. Maybe some of that was due to technology, but Yuzo was just fearless. As kids encountering this for the first time, music that reflected the community around us, it was just *vindicating*. It felt like such a clear line was drawn between the 80s and 90s with this soundtrack. This was the future.

    Interesting Facts: Listen to all of these soundtrack again carefully (bearing in mind that SOR began in 1991) the soundtrack yuzo developed for SOR was actually ahead of its time because if you listen to it carefully you can actually make it out yourself that yuzo used a blend of swaggering house synths, and especially when it comes to combination because he combined electronic/funky style music which wasn't used before but his biggest influenced was actually he developed trance music which was synchronised beautifully, so overall SOR had a blend of swagger for each stage and continuously using electric and funky music togetherness and he also founded the early trance elements, he had developed something so new that it even had an impact on the music industry itself, because they were so mesmerized with his work, that's how gifted yuzo was, we all know he is a legend when it comes to music composing for games, but what people didnt realise is that his music had a massive and i mean a massive influence on the music industry, so every now and again when you watch a music video or listen a music song and you hear a certain instrument or a beat, you can bet you dollar that's yuzo music being used, may Yuzo live for 100 years but one thing for sure is that his music is going to be in existence forever
