Tekken tunes are now available on popular music streaming platforms

Catching up on the news of the past month, most of the Tekken franchise's musical albums were recently published on multiple digital streaming services. You can now legally stream or own the music from the Tekken games on most of your devices that support internet playback and downloading. The music from all of the mainline Tekken games is available online excluding the two Tekken Tag games which are seemingly absent as of this time. Certain songs also appear to be missing in several of these albums which I assume is due to licensing issues, but this now makes for a large library of Tekken music available online. If you haven't already found them yet, you can look for the Tekken tunes by searching for 'Namco Sounds' or 'Tekken' on whichever music service of your choice.

YouTube Playlist of Hidden Music Discovered in the PC Version of Tekken 7

Shirdel has recently discovered some hidden unused music that remains in the PC Tekken 7 data and the songs found are really peculiar. They range from being subtle music changes or remixs of tracks already in the game to outright different songs with stuff from the mid 1990s or from a Japanese discothèque. Really weird stuff. Tekken Jukebox DLC maybe? Have a listen to some of the music found and tell us what you think. You can find some of the notable music found with the entire playlist embedded below. Music comes courtesy of Shirdel's Namco Music Center YouTube channel.
