I don’t know what it is but that part in particular makes me feel good. Hearing that in the game for the first time was when I knew this was going to be a great ride.
If this game doesn't win best soundtrack at the Game Awards I am gonna be very upset. Edit: THE ROCKSTAR IS NOMINATED. WOOT! Update: It didn't win best soundtrack but got best audio design. 🙃
Games like this have already been made they just go under the radar for some reason. Like NSR, which is honestly better than this game even though I enjoy this one a lot.
It's a bit absurd just how easily this track lights up the happy centers in my brain. Just a few chords in and there's a smile on my face and my feet are tapping. Did I type this comment to the beat? Yes, yes I did. Thanks for posting this; cheers!
This beat is so good that I lm trying my hardest to type the beat but I am doing to badly haha I can’t believe I’m doing this right now wow I still doing a bad joke (This comment must be cancer 💀)
If this game gets no acknowledgement at the Game Awards then I'm fully commiting to the belief that Geoff is a bias Sony fanboy (Nothing wrong with having a preference, but to not give something the recognition it deserves is nonsense).
This game brought something back I haven’t experienced since Jet Set Radio Future… This was an absolute banger of a game. Nine Inch Nails as a boss theme? Like, what?! This was an experience.
You can call me a boomer or anything but I'm gonna say it. They don't make videogames like they used to, Hi Fi Rush is the definitive proof. Sequels, Prequels, safe, copy pasted gameplay visuals and music stain the videogame industry. Hi Fi Rush said fuck to all of that and followed each principle to make an actual good fkn game. Each pillar of this game is meticolously worked through to be in perfect synergy with the rest of the game. Studio Tango took a risk and they created art in it's purest form in a world where monetization not only takes priority (as it should) but completely snuffs out anything remotely innovative.
@@RF-Ataraxia thanks for the reply! By less channels, you mean that in the audio software they used, there are less "instruments" (or whatever the channels represent) in use?
@@CinosTheHedgehog2000 They would probably never let any kind of "Indie game" on the list, like pizza tower, which went through years of development and testing compared to something like say Pokemon, which can't even add ACTUAL MOVING VIDEOS ON A DAMN TV like Hi-Fi Rush did in it's levels. I'd like to think TGA is just biased against indie companies.
@@bum116 yeah like movie awards always making fun of animated movies saying "come back when you can make REAL movies" implying animation is not a real form of cinematographic like wtf?!
I love this whole song, but there’s something about the sheer simplicity of the melody at 4:53 that echoes infinitely in my head that’s just so good This single melody represents the whole game for me
I think a lot of the melodies in the game are if not the same, similar to this, so that may be a reason, and it's honestly so great, makes the game even better for me
Hi Fi Rush is just "good vibes" the game. Very rare that I find myself smiling when playing a game from start to finish. But I was having a great time with this gem.
It's a real feat how this track and a 20 second introductory fight managed to suck me into the game more thoroughly than some AAA titles manage in their entire playtime. This may become one of my favorite games ever.
Where did the big bad Sony touch you man? Get fixated on any one platform and you're gonna miss out on great games period. Wish more people would let that sink in.
@@Ti7Vk3y The hell are you talking about? I love PlayStation and Xbox, but it's no secret Microsoft exclusives have been lacking for years now so for them to put out something that utterly decimated a PlayStation console exclusive is a surprising turn of events. Also like I said, I love PlayStation, so there is no bias at play whatsoever when I say that I think Forspoken is complete dogshit.
The fact that this game under performed sales wise is a goddamn Atrocity. It's such a refrechange of pace on so many levels. My only regret is waiting as long as I did to play it. And I hope that this becomes a cult classic on the level of metal gear rising revengeance or Crypt of the necrodancer which it clearly took some inspiration from.
3:43 is some of the most positive emotionally intense music I've ever heard in my life. The way that it loops in the menu is like a capsule of the most perfect segment of the song; it screams to be free; airy, upbeat and pure unadulterated joy. It makes me feel completely undefeatable, no obstacle tall enough for me to just not float over or rock straight through. It's everything Chai thinks when he thinks of himself; "You ARE a rockstar."
This music makes me remember the old times when I was playing on ps2 in my room while a yellowish sunlight beam was lighting my room through a window….gosh I miss the old days
This gives me flashbacks to Viewtiful Joe, Gitaroo Man, Jet Set Radio, and Future Tactics the Uprising. The fact this track sounds like the Mark Menza DBZ movie intro is a bonus.
Companies really need to follow the 80-20 rule. 80% work and leave 20% for the same people to work on side projects with pashion no deadlines, you'd be suprised at how better things would be.
This game isn't just great, it's Awesome™ with the trademark. This game reinvents the definition of the word Awesome. It's that good. Thank you so much for Hi-Fi Rush, Tango Gameworks and Bethesda Softworks!! I'll be chanting Chai's name as one of his many big fans!
Mannn! this game is so awesome! one of the most awesome and fun games ever to come out in 2023 that came out of no where that even Has art styles making this game look like it's a 2000s cartoon game.
Started this last night. Got to Zano (in the volcano) and I'm enjoying it. Wish it was more fast paced and you ran a little faster but maybe they'll add more faster paced music later...? Lol
Talk about an opener. Hearing this song for the first time told me I was in for something special. And listening to it again just reminds me of how special this game was.
Yeah data mine the steam release more then likely. I'm sure eventually they'll release the album if more then enough people want it. Minus or maybe with the real life tracks from other artist.
Gotta say, I love in this art how before you play the game, Korsica looks like a villain in the background, not unlike Mimosa on the other side, but after you play the game Krosica looks like she’s squaring up with the rest of the gang. It’s great

Proof that not all games need to be a big budget AAA project!
This is a big budget AAA project💀
The budget increased alone on the fully animated cutscenes.
@@CantRead1 If this is a big budget AAA project then it already beat half of the stuff that came out this year
@@CantRead1 It's a first party published AA game at most I'd say
Microsoft doesn't agree
It's really not the same without the constant chorus of chai
Cha! Hey! Cha! Cha! Hey! Hey! Hey!
no gracias
It lacks the guitar riffs, dodging and more
CHAI, CHAI, CHAI, CHAI
This feels somewhat off without hearing the crowd cheer "CHAI!" as you dash across the level.
isnt this the main menu music?

Can't wait to hear the game awards orchestra play this theme once Hi-Fi Rush inevitably gets nominated for GOTY. :)

This and "I Got This" easily belong in the Pantheon of "Best First-Level Music in Video Games."
how about the rest of the soundtracks

This game is such a gem. God bless.
Feels like a cartoon i could have watched as a kid
Tango dropping another masterpiece, nothing new
Microsoft went from having no exclusives to shadow dropping a 10/10 that massacred a Sony exclusive in sales.

i have listened to this song enough times for it to show up on "my mix"
it is an achievement not many songs achieve
The best song in the game hands down.
4:53 is my favorite part of the song
This song, along with this game, is the reason why I find myself chanting "Chai! Chai!" during moments when nothing's going on in my life.
Same
The fact that this game under performed sales wise is a goddamn Atrocity. It's such a refrechange of pace on so many levels. My only regret is waiting as long as I did to play it.
And I hope that this becomes a cult classic on the level of metal gear rising revengeance or Crypt of the necrodancer which it clearly took some inspiration from.
MAN

WHY ISNT EVERYONE TALKING ABOUT THIS GAME ITS SOOOOOO GOOOOOD
3:56
The start menu theme
3:42
The main menu theme
_plays guitar in rhythm to the game_
My favorite part was when the guy said "whoop!"
This little gem is awesome.
This goes SO hard. I'm happy to have bought it so early
love how pretty much every iidx commission artist who makes video game stuff outside of iidx makes absolute bangers for those games
"Oh? You got no rhythm and tempo? Don't worry, we got you! You WILL be stylish" The Song
One of the best first levels of any game
This is so a FLCL vibe with its presentation
3:23 Base… 1F. 2F. 3F.. “Woah..”
Love this part with the elevator.
Edit: I got the order of the floors wrong before editing, now it’s fixed.
It's such a small moment but I love it as well
This music makes me remember the old times when I was playing on ps2 in my room while a yellowish sunlight beam was lighting my room through a window….gosh I miss the old days
this was one of the best games ive every played because of the fire soundtracks like whirring and i loved peppermint and the storyline
“Occupation… Rockstar?”
“ *Future* Rockstar!”
*This game is a masterpiece*
"are you done..?"
"Uhh, yes?"
5:50 absolutely my favorite part. I always grin and groove along to this section.
1:25 yessir
This song is awesome
This sound track is amazing
Total legend... thank you so much for uploading the OST. I love it so much ⚡️🎵 🤟🏻 🎸 ❤️
What a hero

I love the other half of this track. The resting part with the vocals really make it catchy and I can’t stop listening to it
WOO 🗣🗣‼️‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥
this game is so good, it need His own Cartoon and the GOTY
I really think Tango could pull an Cyberpunk Edgerunners to keep this Game alive as an Franchise!!!
Awesome guitar solo
Dashing around the stage to the beat like Yeah Wah HOO! Yeah Wah HOO!
Chai, Chai, , Chai, Chai, Chaiiii!!!!
Started this last night. Got to Zano (in the volcano) and I'm enjoying it. Wish it was more fast paced and you ran a little faster but maybe they'll add more faster paced music later...? Lol
Oh they will. There are some fast tracks.
You can actually go to the settings and make the tracks go faster but I think it can only be done in the main menu
If they make a collectors edition with a vinyl set you best believe I’m buying that twice TAKE MY MONEY
Game of the year
this entire soundtrack has nothing but bops
GOTY contender right here!! It has been quite a while since I had so much fun in a game !! Also, Korsica's accent drives me crazy... damn🥵
Talk about an opener. Hearing this song for the first time told me I was in for something special. And listening to it again just reminds me of how special this game was.
Some of the best fun I've had since 2001! Game of The Year for me.
at first, I was like - what a banger release
then as I kept progressing, I realized this is freaking devil may cry with rhythm
Absolute goty material
Oooooo oooooo oooooh
Excellent 🎸
Very first GOTY 2023 contender, also one of the best shadow dropped games ever
Fucking love how this sounds so much like Riot Act era Pearl Jam!
One of the Best gems of the year ❤❤❤
The pure audio satisfaction seeping into my ear drums at 3:10 is unmatched
