The way they remixed the themes doesn’t sound like you’ll listen to them in a match… they seem to fit more as bgm during story-telling or something, but who knows. As with a few others, I think I dislike Cammy’s the most. Just not feeling that intro… everything after that is good. Chun’s is ok. I’ve said it before, Bison’s theme feels like it belongs in MvC3.
And I called it, Karin would get a new theme. The A3 soundtrack is a completely different style and just doesn’t fit well if you were to remix it with SF5’s style imo. You do hear the A3 melody or whatever towards the end. New theme is godlike though.
I think Ken and Ryu’s theme stay truest to the SF2 tracks.
One thing I like though is that all the themes do match that futuristic/sci-fi UI they seem to be going with.
Yes because I"m sure Capcom will take time out of their schedule to read a thread bitching about music on SRK.
Besides, unlike gameplay, if you’re bitching about things like music it’s already too late. They won’t recompose the OST after putting it out already. Any themes that are bad will remain bad forever.
Some songs actually sound as good as Ex3. karin’s theme is on par with strange sunset imo.
waterfall’s nice, sounds like mvc2 mixed with 3s ibuki with an octave change and better sounds.
Cammy’s theme starts so bad yet ends so well, reminds me of SFEX (sounds a bit like Sagat’s theme Before Moon in the end). I’m completely in love with the character themes.
