Hidenori Shoji: Intelligence For Violence

We end off Yakuza Christmas (probably should have warned you about that; I tend to get in a Yakuza mood around the holidays) with a jazzy combat track from Yakuza Kiwami. Iff you gotta fuck people up, fuck them up to saxophones.

Song Score: 1994/10

Character Playlist (2024)

Wanted to do one of these again, not gonna lie. I think I did this a couple years back, so once again I'm doing a playlist for everyone's favorite buff lady, Amara Alistratova. I also wanted to do this to help reflect where I think she's at nowadays in terms of where I see her writing. This is a list of 20 songs not intended in a specific order.

Breaking the Habit - Linkin Park

Another Day in Paradise - Phil Collins

Wrong Side of Heaven - Five Finger Death Punch

The Hell Song - Sum41

Falling Apart - Zebrahead

Who We Are - RED

Owner of a Lonely Heart - Yes

Kryptonite - 3 Doors Down

Sacred Worlds - Blind Guardian

My Hero - Foo Fighters

Savior - Rise Against

North Country - Anitek

For Face - Hidenori Shoji

Heart of Madness - Kodomo Band

Believe Yourself - Naoto Fuuga

REAL x EYEZ - J x Takanori Nishikawa (T.M. Revolution)

Heart of Sword - T.M. Revolution

Hero's Comeback!! - Nobodyknows+

Indestructible (The Next Door) - EXILE

Undefeatable - Tomoya Ohtani (Feat. Kellin Quinn)

Everyone has their own way of expressing their characters, some make playlists, others might make mood boards. Every method is valid and I want people to know that.

Hidenori Shoji: Fiercest Warrior (Kiwami 2 Version)

This track plays the last time you fight Jo Amon and you know what? It fits. Almost makes me feel bad for just wasting him with a shot gun the whole time. "AAAAA*BLAM*AAAAAAA*BLAM*AAAAAAA*BLAM*AAAAAAAA....*BLAM*"

Song Score: 1200/10

[p-receh]

One of my biggest grips on superstars is that... Jun Senoue is the last person who composed since classics.

Yes, and that's also mean it's upsetting that Naofumi Hataya didn't come back despite having lots of people outside of sonic team.

I could go on how much I gushing Teruhiko Nakagawa is back to sonic as assistant-director. Hideaki Kobayashi make another final boss comeback song, Toriena is super underrated in TSR I'm glad she's back, finally got Tee lopes x Jun collab in sonic game not just remix, two fellas that previously in frontiers gladly joined in for classics, fucking judgement/yakuza series, Hidenori shoji and Takahiro Kai (my god... O.o), and so on.

But... Naofumi Hataya didn't?

This could be her chance to redeem himself after that poor receptions from forces, And yet she's absent here. This is her forte for this genre.

This genuinely gave me in curious. Like how it's starting to form a pattern. Such as Mariko Namba mysteriously vanished after working with Tomoya Ohtani for so many times. Her last work was only one song for lost world. Same as Fumie Kumatani too.

To be fair I'm talking this shit because I missed them so much. Their last work were... Underwhelming to say the least. And I'm genuinely sad that their last work were their weakest project they had done before left.

Farewell to all of you, thank you for all your hardwork.

pee-man's yakuza ost review: the original

guess who's obsessing over shirtless guys fighting on rooftops again!!!!!!! so i've been working on a little personal project which naturally involves me typing up a bunch of yakuza related stuff and i usually listen to said soundtrack whenever i write about it because a) it reminds me of my experiences with the games themselves and b) buzz lightyear video game osts video so while i'm doing that i got the idea to do this little thing on the side: i'm gonna review each game's ost as i write about them, keeping things fresh in my mind and to give another shot to tracks i might've missed or forgotten about. when it's all over, i'll do the natural gamer thing and make a Tier List™️ because of course i will plus i haven't listened to most of the japanese only spinoff ost's so i finally get an excuse to fully listen to those too. yippee!!

Naturally we start with the first game: Yakuza for the PS2. (quality for certain tracks can get a little questionable towards their ends: i just listened to them via spotify myself)

The first two PS2 games have a very unique sound to them that the later entries don't really have. A lot of the current composers haven't really gotten on board yet, so Hidenori Shoji's directed and (I think) also composed most of the tracks by himself. What results is a more rough, edged feel to the sound. It's almost grunge-like rock, and I'm definitely a fan of what comes out of it.

My personal top 5 includes: 1) Turning Point, with its sirens and dream-like rhythms 2) Pray Me, with unintelligible English lyrics, unironically my favorite part of it 3) For Whose Sake, conveying so much sorrow 4) son of a gun, if you want reasoning just listen to 1:08-1:20 5) Funk Goes On, which kept me coming back for street fights just to hear it again

Some tracks I appreciated more this time include:

Blow To The City: This is a pretty damn solid panic theme! I love the unease that comes with those piano chords in the middle.

Singin' Bass: Fun little track for the hostess minigame. I dig how laid back it is, and I really like those little touches and whispers of sax.

Coming To My Life: The... uh... noises at the start threw me for a loop when this first came on, but aside from that, another cool laid back song. The vocals are very, how you say, "video game music" like? But yeah, whatever, cool track.

Poison Pill: I honestly didn't even know this track existed. But hey, it sounds awesome, and it's more music, so that's a win. I like the main riffs quite a bit, and of course, that signature PS2kuza siren. I love that siren so much.

You of course have your iconic first appearances of what would be legendary tracks with pretty strong first outings, with what is basically the game's main theme, Receive You, and our favorite one-eyed mad dog's first ever theme, Receive You the Prototype. And, yeah! They're pretty solid tracks, and it's no wonder they've been the basis for so many renditions later down the line. Receive You actually won 2nd place in a little OST bracket on Youtube awhile back: that should speak to it's legacy a lot. I love the other renditions a LOT, but the originals still stand strong as great tracks.

Overall, pretty strong soundtrack! Even in their first outing, RGG had their priorities straight and their music department on fire. While, spoiler alert, I still like Yakuza 2's OST more, there are some really good tracks here, and they do so much to enhance the moment's they're played in, as well as really helping in Yakuza 1's atmosphere, which I'd argue is one of the game's strongest elements. I'd STRONGLY recommend a listen to anyone who's only every heard the Kiwami renditions.
