Beneath the familiar red and black dragon head logo on this rare CD is an "excellent" set of 10 techno tracks dedicated to the stars of the world-renowned video game, Mortal Kombat. The music sounds very much like the electronic soundtracks used in racing games like Ridge Racer and Wipeout in the late 1990's, but it's overlaid with rapping, singing, chanting, and narration to create an adrenalin-charged cacophony of awesomeness sure to make you want to either get up and dance, or put on your ninja outfit and beat up a four-armed giant!
1. Johnny Cage (Prepare Yourself) - Crowds cheer as an announcer introduces "the blue-eyed actor from California," Mr. John Carlton, better known as Johnny Cage. Synthesized beats pulse as a male voice raps: "Be tough! Shoot your green fire! The shadow kick we all admire, is strong! Fight for your life! Mortal Kombat at the speed of light!"
2. Kano (Use Your Might) - The second track starts off with the voice from the game saying "Kano wins." Then, as the fast techno beats kick in, a woman's voice sings the praises of the victorious kombatant. "I'm on your side," she tells him, "You're the bad guy, but I feel for you." She even goes on to call him a "fallen angel." She must not have seen the Mortal Kombat movie.
3. Sub-Zero (Chinese Ninja Warrior) - This ode to the blue-vested ninja starts and ends with some gentle piano notes, with the hard synth beats in the middle. Slow singing of the words, "Ooooh, ... Read More

I remember the first time my buddy played it for me -- he was like "This is the most hilarious thing ever -- it's these random guys singing random techno songs about Mortal Kombat." That's still the most apt description of this album I've heard to date. You will be rolling on the floor as you hear such lyrics as "Sub Ze-e-ro, Chinese Ninja War-rior -- with your heart so cold! ...Why do you wear the mask?"
The actual music isn't too shabby, random mid 90s techno :-)

If you like techno you may like this CD but the lyrics are so cheesy I can't help laugh everytime I hear this. The only decent song really is Sub-Zero (Chinese Ninja Warrior) and I laugh every time I hear it.
If you like trance you may enjoy some of it. If you don't you'll get a damn good laugh. The album is horrible but yet good because it's funny.
