Good Stage Music from Fighting Games

So SFV has been getting a lot of flak and while that's a different discussion, I wanted to point out something the game does oh so right. That is the MUSIC.

I've found literally 2 themes from the game I don't really like, Laura and M.Bison. Laura's just sucks, and Bison's gets really repetitive.

But other than those 2 themes, pretty much every piece of music in the game is ON POINT.

Just check out these examples.

Shadaloo Base theme.

Shadaloo Base (Alternate)

Lair of the Four Kings

I also wanted to point out some great character themes, but for now let's just keep it about the stage music.
 
I love the Alpha 3 soundtrack with it's more "rock-y" tracks. Seem to be in the minority there though since I've never seen anyone else mention it.
 

My man <3

Also:

Tekken 3 - Law's theme

And some from my favourite fighting game series ever (I'm not a very serious fighting game player, so I liked this series because it was my first; with anime characters a nonsensical story and great BGM)

Toshinden 1 - Sofia's theme

Toshinden 2 - Gaia's theme

Toshinden 3 - Veil's theme

Toshinden 4 - Subaru's theme

(Man, after posting all this it made me really wish that Tamsoft would resurrect Toshinden again. Properly too, not like that crappy Wii game)
 
The old Mortal Kombat games. I am talking UMK3 and Trilogy. Hell, even 4 had some jams.
Next is Tekken 5.
