Tekken Tag Tournament
Publisher: TOKYOPOP

The Tekken Tag Tournament Soundtrack is being released here in America by TOKYOPOP, and is distributed by Electro Source. With 33 songs, Tekken Tag Tournament Direct Audio has lots of great music from the game and inspired by the game.

The songs are all a nice blend of electronica and orchestral, varying from slow and epic sounding pieces to fast techno songs. There's the ?Opening Movie? music, the music that is played during character selection (Select), and theme music for everyone's favorite characters, such as Jin, Paul, Hwoarang, Eddy, Yoshimitsu, Lei, Law, Nina, Xiayu, King, and Heihachi, as well as some other familiar tracks from the game.

While a few of the tracks are extremely short (especially tracks 24-28, ranging from one to four seconds), a few of them are of fairly decent length, and the last four tracks are remixes, each of which last more than four minutes. Not including the last four tracks, the average track length is around 30 seconds to two minutes. With the exception of the few extremely short tracks, most of the tracks are pretty nice and quite ambient. Fans of Tekken will find their favorites here. Fans of techno and trance may find some tracks they like quite a bit. As I listen to the disc, I can't help but think how good some of the tracks would be for a DJ while making 'bridges' or mixes between songs. (Especially if there's a gaming crowd in the audience.)
