Neither Hamamoto or Hosoe are listed as composers, but Hamamoto is also listed as assistant sound director and Hosoe as an executive sound producer for SuperSweep's part of the project.
Ayako Saso
Saso only composed Cathedral,
according to Eguchi. This one did not surprise me.
Yousuke Yasui
Yasui's
old works list mentions composing one track for the game too. He composed Temple of Dragon,
according to Eguchi. I was surprised since it's in a genre he rarely does (nu metal) and had thought he had composed Desert Wasteland due to its funkiness, but it's actually Eguchi.
Kazuhiro Kobayashi
Kobayashi mentioned in
a tweet from 2012 that he composed one stage theme for the game. He
confirmed that he composed Bowling Alley Rooftop.
Takahiro Eguchi
In an interview with VGM Online, Eguchi's answer regarding his Tekken 3D work:
Quote:
|
For this project, I made background music for things like the new stages and the system screens. The entire Tekken series has a very stylish, modern sound throughout. After taking this in account, I did my best to ensure my compositions also gave off a general refreshing vibe.

Eguchi listed six tracks as his work in
email correspondence, leaving the other three composers to have composed one track each. The title for Wrecked Dojo, "Wasabi Body Blow" is known thanks to its inclusion in Taiko no Tatsujin, which also confirms him as the composer of that track.
It would be great to see a proper OST release for this game one day, without it being trapped in 3DS ADPCM compression. This game has been swept under the rug as it's a spinoff developed by Arika, but maybe its time will come.
