[LIST] The BEST Tekken soundtracks — contributions welcome!
Music is subjective, this is my personal list of my favourite Tekken tracks, collected over a long time. They are ordered by game, and then in descending order by how much I personally like them.

I compiled this for a cool internet radio station I listen to (RPGamers[rpgamers.net] — hopefully they will be officially accepted at some point! That's the reason that a lot of the OSTs chosen here are good for listening to on their own, in my opinion (along with providing a hefty dose of nostalgia).

Find something that isn't listed here? Please link below!
And if it is listed here, what is your favourite Tekken OST?

Tekken
  • Akropolis (Tekken 2 has a shorter but otherwise identical track named ‘Kuma’)
  • Chicago (Tekken 2 has a fully identical track called ‘Lee Chaolan’)

Tekken 2
  • Almost Frozen (known unofficially as ‘Anna Williams’, as it is her stage’s theme)
  • Paul’s Miracle Deathfist (known unofficially as ‘Paul Phoenix’, as it is his stage’s theme) (arranged ver. only as arcade ver is much too basic and not as good)
  • King — two similarly composed but excellent VGM that feel very different:
    Beast Priest
    Ring a Bell
  • Nobody Catch Me (known unofficially as ‘Michelle Chang’, as it is her stage’s theme)
  • QUIET INTERIM REPORT (also known as ‘Middle Boss’ because that’s when it appears)
  • All things are in flux and nothing is permanent (this repeats so you are welcome to cut it) (known unofficially as ‘Ganryu’, as it is his stage’s theme)
  • Hit Out (known unofficially as ‘Bruce Irvin’, as it is his stage’s theme)

Tekken 3
This is my first Tekken, and the first that holds up really well IMO.

  • Jin Kazama (this is the most iconic theme in Tekken):
    PS1 version
    The superb (IMO and fan opinion is that it is superior) arcade version — full version here
    Official, excellent remix by sanodg, from the ‘Battle Trax’ remix CD
  • For Hidden Characters (known unofficially as ‘Julia Chang’, as it is her stage’s theme, along with other hidden characters I think)

Tekken 4

Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection

Tekken 6
    Can't think of any... sorry :(

Tekken 7 (HYPE)
Note: this is not complete as not all the tracks and stages have been released yet, and fans haven't recut the full OST into clean versions. Nonetheless:

Tekken Tag Tournament
    Ogre (arcade edition here — personally I prefer the remix for the PS2 edition)
  • Xiaoyu (arcade edition is lame)

Tekken Tag Tournament 2
