Teaming up once more with the iconic composer Yuzo Koshiro, Data Discs is delighted to unveil another gem from the golden age of 16-bit gaming: The Revenge of Shinobi. Crafted in 1989, the soundtrack for the Mega Drive classic (renowned as The Super Shinobi in Japan) ingeniously melded Western dance music with Japanese influences, resulting in a sonic experience unlike anything seen before. This musical masterpiece marked Koshiro's inaugural venture with SEGA, setting the stage for his groundbreaking Streets of Rage trilogy, where the innovative concepts and styles introduced in Shinobi would be elevated to extraordinary heights. Koshiro's contribution to The Revenge of Shinobi stands as a tribute to the inventive brilliance of early game composers, showcasing their ability to extract novel and unforeseen sounds from remarkably constrained hardware.
