There’s just something about this music. It’s so quintessentially 90s, and yet I feel like I’ve never heard anything else like it, whether in the 90s or otherwise.

Hey you should react ro the team fortress 2 soundtrack. It's a master class of sound design and I'd think you would have a field day breaking down some of its components
Ahh, I missed it! I'll enjoy listening to this now. Also, I think you were thinking about "you're unbelievable" on the menu theme. Though the chords are a little different! 😃
I really hope you choose to listen to the Shenmue in-game and out of game soundtracks; the score itself is phenomenal. Also hoping the same for later Metal Gear titles 🚬🎶
Amazing stream as always! If possible, I would love to see your reaction to Both the soundtracks of Ori and the Blind Forest and Will of the Wisps! Some of the best Game soundtracks I've listened to. I think both you and the friends on the channel would really enjoy them!
If you loved this ost, you will love Pizza Tower, that game grabbed a lot of stuff from jazz jackrabbit 2 and warioland, and when it comes to this game, they mainly grabbed the cartoonish artstyle, fast paced gameplay and funky music.
thanks for that comment, just checked a gameplay of it and your descirption is very accurate lol and its absolutely fantastic looking. even the outro music of pizza tower is almost a direct quote of the solo section in colonius theme :)
Your reactions and thoughts on soundtracks always capture exactly how the music makes me feel. Thanks a bunch man. Would love to see hear your thoughts on the original MW2 by Hanz Zimmer
If there any series I recommend listening to, its gotta be the yakuza series, the entire series always has bangers after bangers, I personally would start with Yakuza 0 and move on the reset of the series if you wanted to!
Hey man i love your videos and i strongly recommend reacting to the bloodborne soundtrack which has some of the best themes in the souls franchise in my opinion. I would love to hear your interpretations of them. Great video as always :)
Saying it right now, you've gotta try listening to Rayman Legends ost! Its amazing and they use rock N roll a lot so i think you'd love it! (Awesome vid to)
Was excited to hype up my favorite ost here but then saw the waiting list... dont think it will be next in queue anytime soon but for what its worth the Deep Rock Galactic soundtrack is top tier!
Hey I really hope you can listen to some of celeste strawberry jam's ost which is a mod for celeste that released in february The soundtrack is amazing and i hope to see a video about it some day
I've seen a comment here recommending Pizza Tower, and I second it. The soundtrack in Pizza Tower is funky and fresh, FILLED with banger after banger, and it's as 90s as it gets. Absolutely would recommend you listen to it for yourself.
It's a game that excited even a young boy from far away East Asia. When I was a boy in my early teens, listening to the OST of a game that my father played on the computer he bought for work in the early 2000s, I'm tearing up.
Some of these are remixes of tracks from the first game, which was composed by Robert Allen. Also a fantastic soundtrack. I much prefer the original Tubelectric. You can still hear the original baseline that foreshadowed the synth lead part in the first song, but then it goes a different direction
i love this game so much, every time i hear the music, it reminds me of my childhood, it's amazing, Alexander Brandon is amazing, masterpiece generator
JJ2 were .J2B files, which are compressed module files, likely from .IT (Impulsetracker) because beta versions show this before they were compressed and The Secret Files also used .IT files. Files were played using .J2B extension directly using OpenMPT, which gives the most accurate playback. Detuning due to a playback engine is highly unlikely. What different trackers struggle with is pattern data, commonly volume or gliding notes. Tuning is something in the sample data, it's very hard to screw that kind of thing up, and if it's ever screwed up it's probably by a full Octave instead of a half note distance. It's more likely that the sample quality was just not standardized, composers at that time took what they could get, without having much knowledge or experience about musical engineering.
Never thought the JJ2 sound track would get better by a music teacher jamming on top of it, You should listen to the Grim Fandango OST, it has some great songs.
I love all soundtracks of this game and it's amazing others enjoy and react it aswell. I did my own bass cover of the main menu theme some years ago on my channel, if you're interested. Pump up the jam and keep it alive ❤
Great video! Please check out Deus Ex GOTY (2000), it's made by Alexander Brandon and few other composers. And its WAY better than already legendary Jazz 2 :)
This was awesome, please do the OST of Rise Of The Triad too (the original, not the remaster) They sound really great. Or Tyrian 2000. Still to me, the best OST is probably Final Fantasy VI. There are so many cool games with great music.
This a suggestion but not relevant, do you think you could listen to the "Super Smash Bros Ultimate" OST? there is over 1000 songs mostly from other games but there are a few originals and remixes that just slap, one original is "Lifelight" which is the lore song and the story mode lore song. There are also some cool remixes such as the Pikmin 3 "Mission Mode' remix which honestly slaps, another original song is known as 'Halland/Dalarna" which is from "Minecraft" yeah Steve got into the Smash series as a fighter and broke twitter, but the song is based off of two areas in the spinoff RPG "Minecraft Dungeons." This song also plays in Steve's reveal trailer which apparently broke twitter. Also Surprisingly there is "Flatzone" which is a song that is based on Mr. Game & Watch's beeps and boops, I also just recommend listening to Pikmin music it's pretty cool.
I’m so surprised more people haven’t recommended Detroit: Become Human! Such a beautiful game with such an amazing soundtrack. I’m sure you’d have a blast listening through it!!
This brought a tear to my eye. I remember playing Jazz Jackrabbit 2 when i was literally in the kindergarten. It was one of the first games I've ever played, along with games like Pokemon Silver or Stunt GP (another old, pretty forgotten racing game with banger OST, if anyone here knows the game, I'd be surprised). Thank you for covering this OST and giving me a small nostalgia trip. Although I'm not really into learning about music basics, or playing any instruments for that matter, I still feel like I'm bringing out some new knowledge with those videos. Your videos just feel to me like a nice, cozy place where I can rest my mind for a bit.
The composition is one of the best VGM soundtracks ever in my opinion. I wish we could hear more soundtracks that are this catchy, unique, colourful and with attention to detail. It has a very clear vision for all of the tracks and stages, something missing in many OSTs in todays age. My only gripe is that the sound quality is a little aged. If the soundtrack would be remade with high quality samples and mixing the soundtrack would be a big hit in todays age.
This was awesome. Thanks for such a great analysis!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks so much for creating this awesome soundtrack!
The man himself makes an appearance, thanks for creating such an unique soundtrack!
Alex, thank you for all the amazing work you've done on soundtracks through the years!
i absolutely love ur work from deus ex and im glad i heard this soundtrack
Now this is rare and wonderful sight. Nobody talks about jazz jack rabbit 2 anymore
Agreed, it's a criminally underrated game and OST, but at the same time... it is pretty old game.
Bless the person who recommended this OST.
There are plenty of JJ2 fans worldwide and we will definetely keep it alive! 🙂
Check out the game play of Sonic Frontiers on PS5. What could have been if Jazz Jackrabbit weren't abandoned
Peak Alexander Brandon ost man, childhood hitting me right in the face
I think you can really hear the Jazz Jackrabbit through in the UT99 song "superfist". the man's a genious
God this soundtrack is such a banger.
Played this so much as a youth.
There’s just something about this music. It’s so quintessentially 90s, and yet I feel like I’ve never heard anything else like it, whether in the 90s or otherwise.
its better music than the actual music released in the 90s
More underrated games like this is always appreciated.
Wow no way. This is an old game series that I played in my early years.
Nostalgia through the roof.
This game was a big part of my childhood. Thanks for the memories and reaction!

Music Theory For Gamers reacting to the original Deus Ex Soundtrack / Unreal / Tournament OST ? :D
Hey you should react ro the team fortress 2 soundtrack. It's a master class of sound design and I'd think you would have a field day breaking down some of its components
no way this is gonna be a massive nostalgia blast for me, one of the few games we had on pc growing up!
You deserve some more subs for your analysis
so glad to see you covering these classics. Just watched the DKC one too. A few other favorite OSTs of all time for me is Paper Mario and Banjo Tooie
Ahh, I missed it! I'll enjoy listening to this now.
Also, I think you were thinking about "you're unbelievable" on the menu theme. Though the chords are a little different! 😃
I really hope you choose to listen to the Shenmue in-game and out of game soundtracks; the score itself is phenomenal. Also hoping the same for later Metal Gear titles 🚬🎶

Fantastic OST, and a lot of fun to see you jamming out to the tunes!
I beg you to react to Pizza Tower's OST, you won't regret it
To me this soundtrack is nostalgia, and i think that's why the 80's and 90's music sound sounds nostalgic to me
Hey I really hope you can listen to some of celeste strawberry jam's ost which is a mod for celeste that released in february
The soundtrack is amazing and i hope to see a video about it some day

Great video!
If you are into cyberpunk + rock, you should definitely check out the Turbo Overkill OST
I've seen a comment here recommending Pizza Tower, and I second it. The soundtrack in Pizza Tower is funky and fresh, FILLED with banger after banger, and it's as 90s as it gets. Absolutely would recommend you listen to it for yourself.
You ever going through the persona 2 ost?
Here's hoping you'll touch upon Tyrian2000 ost too.
It's a game that excited even a young boy from far away East Asia. When I was a boy in my early teens, listening to the OST of a game that my father played on the computer he bought for work in the early 2000s, I'm tearing up.
Bro is here
Its time for you to react for Starfield Music pretty please 👉👈
Please, react the soundtrack of Skyrim
I beg you to check out sonic rush ost you will love it 100%
Some of these are remixes of tracks from the first game, which was composed by Robert Allen. Also a fantastic soundtrack. I much prefer the original Tubelectric. You can still hear the original baseline that foreshadowed the synth lead part in the first song, but then it goes a different direction
i love this game so much, every time i hear the music, it reminds me of my childhood, it's amazing, Alexander Brandon is amazing, masterpiece generator
If I ever had a ringwalk, I would definitely pick Jazz Jackrabbit 2 main menu theme lol
it's been years
You should react to the PAYDAY 2 OST
coming back to your channel after the undertale reactions i never expected to see jazz jackrabbit 2 in a title of a video
You should definitely take a look at the OST of Age of Empires and Command and Conquer - RTS tend to have great music.
Unreal OST next please!!! Done by same composer!
brilliant. that "II sus" chord during colonius solo was quite difficult to catch.
I hope the use of an image from JJ2 doesn't mean he's skipping the first one.
It is a JJ2 reaction only
@@Japie__ Big sadge. :C
Jazz Jackrabbit 2
Can you please do Portal 2 OST reaction?
Detuning might be a PAL vs. NTSC MOD playback engine? Though JJ2 tracks were S3Ms, not sure if they had te same issue...
JJ2 were .J2B files, which are compressed module files, likely from .IT (Impulsetracker) because beta versions show this before they were compressed and The Secret Files also used .IT files.
Files were played using .J2B extension directly using OpenMPT, which gives the most accurate playback.

It's more likely that the sample quality was just not standardized, composers at that time took what they could get, without having much knowledge or experience about musical engineering.
Never thought the JJ2 sound track would get better by a music teacher jamming on top of it,
You should listen to the Grim Fandango OST, it has some great songs.
Playing the original game, my first thoughts...is the sound track older than the teacher? xD
Dan est. 1991
One of my favorite games and one of my favorite soundtracks!
This guy ain't no joke, crazy how some people can just hear stuff and know exactly what to play. I envy that.
I love all soundtracks of this game and it's amazing others enjoy and react it aswell. I did my own bass cover of the main menu theme some years ago on my channel, if you're interested. Pump up the jam and keep it alive ❤
Great video! Please check out Deus Ex GOTY (2000), it's made by Alexander Brandon and few other composers.
And its WAY better than already legendary Jazz 2 :)
Amazing 💪
This was awesome, please do the OST of Rise Of The Triad too (the original, not the remaster) They sound really great. Or Tyrian 2000.
Still to me, the best OST is probably Final Fantasy VI. There are so many cool games with great music.
With every song so many memories and good feelings came back. Loved this game as a kid and the music always stood out!
2nd boss theme reminds me of the original Jazz 1 boss theme - ua-cam.com/video/rgcIDALP2Cg/v-deo.html
You should look into that sound track too :)
Crazy that it’s from the same company that does the “Floss Dance” in a small game called “Fortnite”
what?JJ2?! the guy has nice taste! besides , thanks for your analysis!
Childhood memories right here. Thanks for putting the spotlight on an old school gem
You should definitely listen to The Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask next. I personally think you'll like it.
Honestly, all the LoZ soundtracks ought to be listened to 🎉
One of my all time favorite soundtracks. I have listened to it so many times.
I remember playing this game on our familys first computer.
Lets say Alexander Brandon knows how to cook...
This game wouldn't be nearly as good without this music.

More Jazz 2 on youtube, winning
Feel the power of ANTICS!

May I recommend Core Keeper Ost, a soundtrack filled with beautiful music that I enjoy and I think you would too.
nostalgic soundtrack, i love these videos i can't believe i didn't discover this channel earlier. golden stuff, keep up the good work
Cool
Very cool. Jazz 2 might not be the best music ever but it's competent and varied, and has a very interesting style that is very of it's time.
The composition is one of the best VGM soundtracks ever in my opinion. I wish we could hear more soundtracks that are this catchy, unique, colourful and with attention to detail. It has a very clear vision for all of the tracks and stages, something missing in many OSTs in todays age. My only gripe is that the sound quality is a little aged.

You should also check out the original JJ for DOS music. IMO it's better.
Yo dude could you listen to the Rayman legends soundtrack?
This man needs to listen to the tower defense ost from the game Roblox
I didn't like this :(
Why?😁
