Seaskape opens with a drum solo, followed by a synthesizer instrumental with guitars in the background. This loops a couple of times before vocals are added for the chorus, sung in a high-pitched rock style, similar to Squid Squad's other songs. After the chorus, the same drum solo from the start plays again before the song is looped. Seaskape is one of the five battle songs released with Splatoon at launch. Like all battle songs, it has a random chance of being played during online matches. It can also be heard in Squid Beatz, and is included in Splatune.
In Splatoon 2, Seaskape can be unlocked to listen in Squid Beatz 2 as a final reward from the Inkling Boy (Splatoon 2)amiibo. It cannot, however, be heard anywhere else in the base game. It has a maximum score of 140 and 278 in Normal and Hard modes, respectively.
While not the original version of the song, a new remix of it appears in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, arranged by Hirokazu Tanaka. This version uses more traditional instruments for most of its verses, while the vocals in the chorus are deeper and more muffled. It has a chance of playing on the Moray Towers stage, and can be heard in the Sounds section in the Vault menu.
Other versions
Seaskape (ESL Go4Splatoon Europe Grand Final)
The version played on ESL Go4Splatoon Europe Grand Final during the waiting screen has a proper outro, consisting of a guitar riff (which is also heard throughout the entire song) which fades quickly.
Seaskape is a corruption of "seascape", meaning a view of the sea. The "ska" in the name may also be a reference to the Jamaican music genre of the same name.
