Street Fighter MasKamasi Washington
Amid the many artists breathing new life into the contemporary jazz scene, Los Angeles–born saxophonist Kamasi Washington is undoubtedly one of them.
His music captivates with a grand sense of scale that fuses diverse genres.
The piece introduced here is a track he released as a single in June 2018 and also included on that year’s album Heaven and Earth—one inspired by a well-known competitive fighting game.
Kamasi has said he created it as his own theme song, like a boxer’s entrance music.
The work reflects his childhood memories of being absorbed in arcade games and his wish for peace—if only conflicts could be settled through games.
Over a simple yet powerful funk-drum groove, epic melodies and improvisational solos intertwine, brimming with energy that lifts the listener.
The pseudo–silent film–style music video is also striking and was recognized as a visual work, earning a nomination at the UK Music Video Awards.

Her signature crystalline guitar tone is soothing, and its bluesy nuances create a unique sense of light and shade.
It’s also striking how the vocals she began to pursue in earnest around this period blend into the sound as if they were another instrument.

This piece is up-tempo, energetic, and rich in improvisation—sure to elevate the listener.
Precisely because it’s an instrumental without lyrics, you can fully immerse yourself in the story woven by the sound.
