Description
This song plays in several stages in Splatoon 2's Octo Expansion. It has an ethereal, dreamlike sound to it, making it sound distant. Its heavenly vibe is calmly accentuated be several different beat changes and it loops until silently ending off on a fading note. The calm nature is fitting as it is used in stages which usually require a lot of precision and patience. The song mainly consists of a repeating synthesizer ostinato which repeats throughout most all of the track, changing in pitch a few times, accompanied by some percussion and a bass. It is generally used on slower, more-thought based stations, mostly where Agent 8 has limited ink. It also plays on D05 All That 8-Ball Station (also has limited ink) and B07 Fly 8-Ball Station, which are based around shooting 8-balls to hit targets, while C11 Abracadabra Station and F02 Slow Ride Station which are focused on Agent 8 slowly figuring out the route to the goal.
