Game Composer Reacts to SEASOURCE - Splatoon 3

[@ChristophJakob]

How do you like the new SashiMori music? 👀 Also, there's gonna be a tierlist stream coming some time in June where I want to check out ALL the multiplayer music in Splatoon again. Stay tuned!

[@Jdubs12345]

i like the old more human sounding vocals better

[@softcloth69]

I love the songs so much 😁

[@GlowSquid553]

Hey there Chris. Just here to throw out an opinion here that the chords are not playing random notes. I think they are playing a repeating melody that goes along with the guitar in some sort of way. But if it’s random chords then well it is just random!

[@GlowSquid553]

Note: people put out a Instrumental version of Seasource

[@MysteriousStranger50]

I like the lore and idea that, since sashimori get their music ideas from sampling old, disjointed human music, and that this sounds like an anime intro, that it basically confirms paul found a stash of anime and made a song out of it The question is, which ones?

[@lancebird6675]

Entropical sounds stylistically similar to the Opening Anything Goes from Kamen Rider OOO so it could very well be one of them

[@L0wded_]

Could be some cool one in the future since we aren't extinct yet

[@maravreloaded]

Kudos to our boy Paul who's all grown up now.

[@ZIG_ZAG_ZOOM]

Bro I saw that shout out to my bro Paul

[@Bucketnetta]

Is it weird that I lowkey find him attractive?

[@crashur3600]

Fun fact about Sashimori and Splatoon music overall: in Splatoon, they speak a different language than any human does, which is included in their songs. However, Sashimori is a band with no vocalist. Their DJ, Paul, uses records that contain the voices of deceased humans. Ya know, because humans are extinct in Splatoon. But when they announced Seasource, I believe the JP Twitter said something about "a voice that has this innocence that transcends all cultures." I took that as the vocals being from a human kid.

Theme of a decavitator ripping through your entire team.

Theme of me ripping through your team

[@TressaAimuuru]

This song is legitimately so hype-inducing, when the chorus kicks in it gives off such a huge boost of energy, like it's conveying to everyone "IT'S GO TIME, LET'S MAKE SOME MOVES!" It also feels very much like something that'd come out of a Japanese artist, I can't quite pin down any song in particular it feels like but it definitely has the VIBES to really fit in with others I've heard

[@Huskie297]

So glad I'm not the only one that feels that this song feels so intensely and specifically Japanese ahah Like, yeah, obviously the composers are Japanese themselves, but it really has something a lot of the other Splatoon bands don't

[@Xonequis]

This sounds like a good Season 2 intro of a Splatoon anime. Speaking of intros, this reminds me of the old 2010’s WWE intros. Gave me a nostalgia from a different direction lol

[@Naito9874]

which is funny because it's the second game and second time SashiMori does this

[@Xonequis]

Yeah, Entropical needs to be Season 1

[@the_inksans_fan]

AGHH I WISH THEY PLAYED MULTIPLAYER SONGS AT LIVE CONCERTS, A LIVE VERSION OF SEASOURCE WOULD GO SO HARDDDD. Also hands down the best splatband song out there.

[@Venta_Black]

They used to in Splatoon 2 days I’m hoping they bring it back

[@icantthinkofaname6397]

they do at the starts of some of them! we've gotten a live version of entropical before, so its a possibility

[@the_inksans_fan]

@@icantthinkofaname6397 did it have the lyrics?

[@eeeeggnog._.]

They did no quarters, aquasonic and Ska-blam last time

[@4467jhgeji]

9:20 red shirt Chris was vibing to the music

[@ChristophJakob]

LMAO, I don't ever do that but found it funny in that moment.

[@reddiamond-y2v]

one of the best multiplayer tracks ever easily. i cant choose a fav of sashimori between this and entropical......

[@-butterfly-594]

8:40 I LOVE that progression so much!!! Chromatic descending basslines are so cool, and it's awesome to see them pop up in this song.

I wish Entropical was still played in battles, the song was fire and my fav. Have you heard it?

[@SH1NY_Z0R04RK]

Sashimori cooking again (thankfully)

[@somethingbanter]

so the reason the vocals sound different from this band is that they are actually using ancient human music for the vocal tracks. the octoling boy is a DJ and he is the one who mixes them to sound like their own language to use as vocals.

[@blitzkrieg9800]

the sections where youre playing the guitar over the song itself actually sound so good i would honestly listen to a full version of you just playing over it lol

[@Samuel_1802]

No way, Edward von Sittington! I'm their biggest fan!!

[@Technically_Techy]

Damn that was fast. This song is peak

[@cynda_spl]

What an amazing song. I could honestly listen to you jamming to these crazy tunes for hours on end it’s super entertaining and kinda relaxing in a way.

[@السراقالمجهول]

the amount of hype in this songs is equivalent to: splattack cside, blitz it, no quarters, entropical, seafoam shanty, ska blam, triple dip and shifting stars, just pure hype and high energy throught the song, all of these songs are my favorite to listen to in splat zones since that the mode where there is no down time and its fast and hectic so it fits really well

[@Troisnyx]

Ah, the Christoph Jakob cinematic universe 👀

[@ChristophJakob]

I should turn all my characters into a horrible sitcom 😂

[@Troisnyx]

Do it 👀✨

[@RoboJtheCreativeSpirit]

Speaking of anime, for this part 6:27 my mind almost immediately thought of a certain Persona 5 music (Blooming Villain) if I'm gonna be honest.

[@Baron_R]

1:25 I would watch Into the shirtiverse.

[@ChristophJakob]

I should turn this into a sitcom that has awful humour at some point.

[@ZIG_ZAG_ZOOM]

Nintendo was doing so good at NOT making their Splatoon album covers look like copies of Weezer's Blue Album cover until they dropped Sashimori's new Splatoon 3 songs with The Blue Album's 4-in-a-row lineup😔💔at least my man Paul doesn't look like nightmare fuel anymore💯💯

[@foureyesisafish7968]

I mean, Sashimori’s original album cover is ALSO weezer

8:41 this chord is the same in calamari inkantation for the second part of the the repeat for the chorus for give the same emotion very, curiously how he notice that part

[@hyunasgirlfriend]

after listening to this song on loop for hours i noticed that the chord progression in the chorus sounds really similar to the calamari inkantation except for one part that goes down instead of up

[@24-sourcandy-octopi]

4:15 the reason for that is because Paul uses chopped up vocals and puts them all together rather than just singing. I love that they actually think out the band’s styles instead of just making plain music for battles.

[@Sir_churr0]

I LOVE SEASOURCEEEE

[@outrightflame4280]

Same it’s s I ha good a battle music theme for Splatoon also I swear whenever this plays I go crazy in the games like get like 20 or 25 kills basically I pop off in games when this song plays it’s really good to listen too it’s also sounds like an anime intro

[@SpinnyMinii]

Wow bei 3:52 hast du das so gut gespielt es klingt einfach besser als das Original weil es nochmal stärker ist! Ich wünschte ich könnte es ganz anhören :)

[@Joycndrift]

i would literally only listen to this song if chossing what song u want to listen was an option 😂

[@thefactspherefromportal2740]

Oh he got the power of anime intros now

[@thefactspherefromportal2740]

Also been hearing that this is everyone's favorite song since it doesn't sound as repetitive as the others

[@ProgrammerTokyo]

Thanks again for a very interesting commentary! By the way, "No Plan Survives" by Riot Act seems to be one of the most popular musics of the recent seasons. Do you plan to do a commentary on it?

[@ChristophJakob]

Maybe! I definitely want to do a video on Riot Act.

[@instinctfan23]

I'm honest, Seasource is like the most Guilty Gear song in Splatoon overall (and I mean that in literally the most positive way possible)

[@goombasinastack6625]

6:00 a lot of Splatoon 1’s battle music gathered a lot more punk/metal influences, which was sort of washed out by 2, and a little bit in 3.

[@Nagareboshi-_-splat]

for me this sound like that one music called bloom.

[@ChristopherM9876]

Also don’t forget Amalgamania

[@السراقالمجهول]

at the moment i still think that entropical is the best sachimori song, its just way too iconic and way too good however seasource is a close second, its only problem is that the build up is just a little bit weak unlike entropical which is amazing in a ll parts, though that is subject to change, but overall banger tracks, i have never seen a band as consistent and high quality as sachimori, seasource and entropical are S tier song like theyre one of the best in the series, amlgamania and chopscrewy are A tier songs which are bangers just not top tier, all of this band's songs are amazing, the only contestant i can think of is chirpychips which is saying a lot, im excited to see what this band have for the future

[@seanobrienplays688]

Everyone keeps saying Entropical was their favorite, I always preferred Chopscrewey over it.

[@السراقالمجهول]

guys just a theory but do you think Warabi from disspair helped with the synth part in this song idk why but that part reminds me of disspair songs in splatoon 2, thats why its my least favorite part in the song lol

[@TopOfTheLowTier]

Make a video dissecting THE FINALS music I think you would like it.

[@Naito9874]

4.0... 8.0... Will SashiMori show up at 12.0 in Splatoon 4?

[@66Kusmu]

Or 16.0?

tritones , splatoon 3 mhhhh

"It could be a an anime opening" was literally my reaction. This is guy is definitely plagiarizing

[@Phyc_ck]

This vid makes me wanna play guitar

[@ChristophJakob]

Do it! Though I personally prefer bass, guitar is a ton of fun :D

[@YouMayKnowMeAsNate]

These new songs sound so different than the original sashimori ones to the point that I don’t like them. They should be under a different band name

[@spacebar-vx7ck]

Bands do change over time, both in real life and in game.
