Watch: Cobra Kai Season 6 Soundtrack Guide: Every Song & When They Play

Cobra Kai season 6 brought back all the action with the help of a great soundtrack. This first installment of the Netflix series’ final season was only five episodes, but there’s already a great deal going on to excite audiences for the release of Cobra Kai season 6, part 2. There are pic fights, manipulative sleepovers, college parties, demanding karate tests, and more going on in this batch of episodes, and the excitement of these scenes is driven home by a great selection of music.

The majority of the music in Cobra Kai is composed by Zach Robinson and Leo Birenberg, who have been with the series from the beginning. This duo has done a phenomenal job setting the tone for Johnny’s kick-ass story, with a 1980s-inspired score full of intense guitar riffs and dramatic synthetic percussion. However, from time to time, a scene in Cobra Kai needs the help of a familiar tune. Whether a pop culture staple from the ’80s or a newer jam that better fits with the Netflix show’s teenage cast, there’s a little something for nearly every episode in season 6.

Roll With the Changes” by REO Speedwagon – This is the first song that we hear in Cobra Kai season 6. “Roll With the Changes” plays over a montage of the various characters enjoying their newfound peace after Terry Silver’s arrest at the end of season 5. Since a lot has “changed” in the Valley, this is the perfect tune to kick off the season, especially since it’s clear that this peace won’t last forever

Pop It” by Charlotte Devaney & Noize Parade – When Miguel, Demetri, and Hawk head to a college campus to check things out, they run into Kyler, who is attempting to pledge into a fraternity. They join Kyler at a frat party, where the song “Pop It” by Charlotte Devaney and Noize Parade sets the tone.

Crank It Up” By Joey Valence & Brae – All hell broke loose at the frat party when Kyler learned that he never had a chance of being accepted. As Kyler, Miguel, Demetri, and Hawk beat up the fraternity jerks, the song “Crank It Up” by Joey Valance and Brae played, getting viewers pumped up for the kickass Cobra Kai fight scene.
