Hard hittin' King of Fighters '96 techno from Mr. Gecko Yamori. Gotta dig the intro, with lonely choral chords that eventually break into a solid build with a driving saw synth bass. It's at 1'08" where the primary melody comes in in the form of very loud gated trance chords - not exactly subtle. My one gripe is that the particular patch used has a bit too much high end and isn't shmood enough to be used so loudly and extensively. For this reason, I like the in-between sections with nice dancy house piano, bell, and clearly audible breakbeats, quite a bit more. It's good to see more SNK coverage - I've never considered the KOF games particularly ReMixable when compared to their fighting counterparts from the Capcom arena, but Yamori does an admirable job with some high-energy, pulsing action. Not his best work - could have used some mastering and, esp. for the genre, some more elaborate programming and electronic trickery. But as a meat-and-potatoes electro-arrangement from now-defunct SNK's annual franchise, it works pretty well.
