The best of overall MK soundtrack

[Eddy Wang]

I really would like to know the top 10 of the best MK soundtrack that will live for years among members and are recodnized as a master piece.

From all the MK games produced until now, can you list your top 10 all time favorite soundtracks? it doesn't matter if it is arcade or console version of both just name it, later on we could make a comparision of how often some of these song matches according to preference.

i dunno about you guys, but i've always associate mk with ethnical scary music, or something incredibly epic to fight.

Since my top is pretty big, around 30, i will put it in spoiler

UMK3 was amazing.

 

[RoGE]

This deserves a mention imo:

Also, I think MK4's OST was overall the best. The tone and atmosphere of the soundtrack was amazing.

 

[Minh Giang]

MKD soundtrack, UMK3 Church and MK9 Shang Tsung's Garden are the best FACT.

 

[miloPKL]

umk3 was really unique and amazing, mk 2 was also good. mk9 sucked and injustice was even worse

what is wrong with the MK9 music overall? Most of them are surely bleh, but there somes that are good tho.

I think the fact that the sound quality is barely bearable we can't ear anything at all when where playing,

 

[Gesture Required Ahead]

UMK3 Subway, MK9 Subway and MK9 Character Select theme are my top 3

shang tsung's garden is good, that's all, other are just shitty.

 

[Deyrax]

MK9 had no music. Period. Best MK soundtracks are from 3D era

 

[Minh Giang]

btw injustice's music is just boring orchestra music, over and over again, it makes me want to sleep.

 

[REO]

Best soundtracks came from the 3D MKs. They were dark, creepy, gritty, and fucking awesome! Anyone who played them during their era would definitely remember.

My favorite five:

I really hope MK10's soundtrack is giving as much love and passion as the 3D MK era was given!

 

[TomlulsBrady]

mk9 soundtrack was mediocre. Only track I loved was armory.

 

[Mikemetroid]

 

[KRL-STL]

Can include the movies here....cause Annihilation's OST was amazing

 

[bettyswallaux]

best character select soundtrack was mk3 then followed by mk2 bwst soundtrack by a long shot was umk3

 

[NB Semi Evil Ryu]

MK 1 soundtrack will always have a special place in my heart, as it is the most memorable to me.

 

[Eddy Wang]

I really hope MK10's soundtrack is giving as much love and passion as the 3D MK era was given!

Describe this song in one phrase?

 

[Fallen_sektor]

THE PIT 3 THEME! NUFF SAID

 

[RiBBz22]

I think MKII soundtrack was overall the best. I do like the MK9 soundtrack alot though especially with the kombat kode for the classic stuff.

 

[VenomX-90]

I like the metal clanging and sound effects on this one, feels like you are really in the Netherrealm.

 

[aj1701]

Mk2 had the best theme music. I also like mk1 soundtrack on the snes.

 

[Sami]

Fuck everything else, I want this blaring when I fire up MK 10.

 

[KIllaByte]

Subway, Armory, Shang's Garden, and Kratos' stage rocked in MK9, yo.
KRA-TOS

 

[GeoffBedlam]

MKII or MK: Deception had the best soundtracks in my opinion.

For MKII, The Dead Pool is my favourite track. It's dark and sinister sounding, yet at the same time calm and kinda dormant.

For Deception, this. A thousand times this.

This track, man. It's shrill, unnerving and really encapsulates the feeling that your fighting for your (character's lol) life. It would have worked so much better as an actual arena theme instead of just a training one.

 

[MKB]

It's a tie between MK2 and MK9.
