One of only two fighting games in ADK's
catalogue that are not "World Heroes" games,
"Aggressors of Dark Kombat" (totally not a
backronym for the developer name, honest!) is
a very strange game, a hybrid of 2D fighter
and beat-'em-up, with a grapple system that
wouldn't be out of place in a wrestling game.
It has a cast consisting of multiple fighting
game archetypes, a schoolgirl, Fuuma from
"World Heroes" (who loses a "u" in the actual
game) and a little kid with a basketball.

Its soundtrack matches this eclectic mix of
characters, with hip-hop for the little kid,
feudal Japanese instruments for Fuuma, and
ominous atmospheric synth for the stoic
Mexican brawler (who, one should note, speaks
actual Spanish). It also features songs for
each character's ending, complete with lyrics
(albeit in Japanese) presented karaoke-style,
which I unfortunately cannot properly
reproduce in this pack. All of the music is
of exceptional quality, even with heavier use
of FM than most later Neo-Geo soundtracks.
I recommend listening to this one.

Some oddities must be noted for this pack:
* Track 18 has at least one channel go out of
  sync, and it takes so long to get back into
  sync that a full, accurate loop is
  unrealistic in scope. Thus, I trimmed it
  based on what the likely intended loop was.
* There is a pop in track 39 whenever it
  loops. This is unfortunately present in the
  actual track and not an artifact of the
  trimming process.
