ULTRAKILL | EARLY/OLD CyberGrind Theme

[@meganeko]

Just stumbled in here! I'm glad to see the love for the wip! 2:03 kinda slaps? :o I went into my folders to check which iteration of the song this was. I had made 16 different demos before landing on the final version. This was version nr 5 I believe. Some early versions had way more techy electro parts. Others had different riffs and stuff. At one point I slowed down the song because I thought it sounded too hectic, but Hakita was like... "nah man fast is better" lol. So breakneck speed it was.

[@Blitztein_beta]

2:03 slaps harder than the stray that slapped the ground after slam storaging

[@bingevilla]

if u ever get to make another cybergrind soundtrack i hope u'd implement that part somewhere 🙏🙏

[@SubatomicScale]

omg hi meganeko! i got a question, what is the voice in the background of certain parts (like 0:43 - 0:56) saying? I kinda hear "danger" and "do it" at some point, am I right? or is it just gibberish :0?

[@mcrgf]

i find the more hectic nature of this version very interesting! it's very much a cool peek into the inbetween of "this is a concept" to "this is a finished song"

[@meganeko]

@@SubatomicScale It's essentially gibberish. I ran a funeral poem in latin (Catullus 101) though text-to-speech software, into a vocoder. And then shuffled it around.

[@sulphuric_glue4468]

Interesting how this sounds a lot more like meganeko's other work than the final song does

[@erjhg-w5k]

EVEN THOUGH IS OLDER IS STILL BOPSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[@pringle312]

if not, better

[@SeAn-jr6ht]

This would definitely be V2's own cybergrind theme

[@thatspacepirate]

If they ever decide to use this again, I think it would be great for a parkour time trial gamemode

[@deathward4]

2:02's arpeggio is fucking sick and I wish it as was pronounced in the main one.

[@radiatedcataclysm7426]

2:02 I just ULTRANUTTED to this part.

[@bluefake_or_smt]

I want Gabriel to say that

Ellaborate

[@uncroppedsoop]

@@soymilk4207 it's when you projectile boost your own sperm

[@MJ-it5bm]

It still fucks as the first version of the song, tho I can see why they wanted another version. The new one sounds more meaty on the electronica side and filthier with the guitar riffs especially with the lower tuning/key Can't wait for the Gabriel remix

[@theguywhoseinsideyourwalls9153]

Funnily enough this is the 5th version out of 15 according to meganeko

[@ResinUdongeInaba]

THIS STILL SLAPS THO I WANNA MOD THIS INTO THE GAME

good news, you can put custom music in the cybergrind now

[@ResinUdongeInaba]

@@bit_ronic this + the cybergrind / space battle mashup was the first thing I added

[@explosionproof9720]

2:03 slaps so hard the visualizers (i think) couldn't even handle the music

[@Agurets]

2:02 this part is so awesome

[@lefthandedscout9923]

> I had also asked Meganeko if I could include a previous version of the song in the game as an option, but they didn't want me using their unfinished work. Understandable, but another funny difference between us as artists. quote from OST: ULTRAKILL - INFINITE HYPERDEATH - Commentary I hope Meganeko specifically was only adverse to it being used in game and not being shown online because this has 5000 views now -_-

[@caav56]

Just in case, I've downloaded this version

[@yunus1516]

there should be reuploads and archives made of this.

[@theguywhoseinsideyourwalls9153]

Well seems like they're fine with it

[@BloodPaladin88]

Very interesting to see an older version of this song. Are there others, since this is test 5?

[@JustNatan]

theres no other meganeko sound test but there are a few other tracks that are unused and i have trouble actually verifying if their unused or not

[@wasomereal]

post them

[@sebaprime6411]

Yeah, but we don't have them unfortunately.

[@meelo42]

2:02 this part fucks so hard

[@genericdevtexture3661]

It's going so hard it's fucking raping my ears

[@Furos222]

that part is straight FUCKIN

[@kaden-sd6vb]

Just screams the energy of "wave 50+ violent double-insur triple-flayer virtueswarm"

[@Pyracyntrix]

This feels like something that you'd hear in a roblox game from 5 years ago

[@3sidedmelody]

[@recesswastaken3789]

the little riff to cap off the metal section at 2:20 is so eargasmic and it sucks that it didn't make the cut

[@matts2080]

I really like this and some aspects I prefer over the finished track

[@uncroppedsoop]

holy fucking shit 2:02 goes UNREASONABLY hard

[@caav56]

After being only able to listen to it on Hakita's Cybergridn demoplay, I can't help but hear Swordsmachine's big pain sound on that part.

[@awesomegoose281]

More bassboost actually fits really well. I should try playing cybergrind while listening to this

[@Delfite]

If the cyber grind were a Sonic stage, this would likely be the Act 2 theme and I love it because of that.

[@glowdonk]

I'd love to see an "Alt" mix of the Cybergrind theme to be based on the more techy electro theme of the early version

[@Jboog3319]

This sounds better than the original

[@MeepsFTW]

I think this version is better than the current one.

[@Zachabruh]

1:05 and 2:53 I think are the only unchanged section in this song. However In the normal version of cyber grind 1:05 plays at around 1:02 instead. 1:40 is similar but I think it has more percussion than the original. I really wish 1:52 was in original that little section sounds so cool

[@hallowed3576]

I've been wanting to find an alternate version of this theme for a while. All I knew was the masterpiece produced by the god-king Meganeko, and I wanted something like this whether it be a remix or not, and now I've found it! Hoorah!

[@UpsidownZ]

The best way I could describe this is like Splatoon 1 Music V.S. Splatoon 2 music. (the Splatoon 1 being this one and Splatoon 2 being the final release)

[@requiemofcolours1894]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!! I KEPT ASKING BOTH HAKITA AND MEGANEKO FOR THIS FOR SO LONG BUT THEY DID NOT RELEASE IT!!!! THIS IS SO GOOD AND AGAIN THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Zeldrin_]

This would go so hard for a boss rush gamemode or something

[@Rainok]

This whole song was the base drop to that one song in Cruelty Squad

[@yeerbles6473]

I think this version fits better for the energetic aspect of the Cyber Grind, but the current one better fits the killing spree aspect of the Cyber Grind much better I'd still love for this to be used but that is definitely just because I want to hear 2:02 in game

[@gooberuploadsinc]

Maybe like the two versions could switch on the fly. Don't know how that'd work tho

[@PumpyGT]

@@gooberuploadsinc That wouldn't work as well as you would think, these songs are 2 different keys, I don't imagine they'd transition well into each other

[@jimboanimations4041]

This sounds like the theme for some cracked out version of the cybergrind. Maybe in the future, we could get an alternate version of the cybergrind that uses a more polished version of this as the background music.

[@H3llKeeper1]

B-side Cybergrind maybe

[@meep3899]

all radiant cybergrind

[@gooberuploadsinc]

cybergrind but it's just wave 25's radiance on every wave, and on wave 25 the radiance gets doubled@@meep3899

[@doorJ]

this version is better than the one in the game currently and you can not change my mind

[@randyfinch821]

holy shit that guitar solo is honestly better

[@xyvernthederg5760]

this was the thing got me past wave 30, i honestly might like it better than the current version

[@NOVABLASTER]

Divine intervention for me.

[@maddragonfromkamurocho]

i got to wave 41 with some MOTIVATION(the storm that approached gave me some help*

[@hiruharada2650]

It would rip everyone a new butthole if all the completed versions played in full on shuffle during the grind.

[@NellyOClock]

this needs to be in the game, this slaps so hard, i wish hakita adds it next update as a song u can put in the cybergrind

[@EMan-xj5cz]

I’m honestly not sure if I prefer this over the current one or not

[@thepuff7669]

absolute banger

[@trikholit7064]

2:03 I turned up volume on my phone at 100% and that motherfucker started charging

[@dexi600]

love the new version too, but this one bangs even harder imo

[@the_real_boogeyman]

The guitar section goes harder in this version

[@KillerKitten]

Holy Shit! This is fire as shit! I like this one better than the published version. Good find man!

[@neckbread1829]

Strange how this was cut off. This just slaps too hard to be removed

[@JorenMLG]

This shit goes harder than the new one tho holy fuck

[@Mwright4444]

Not really, but this one is super nice.

[@fishystick117]

It would be cool if there was a chance that the normal song would switch to this one for a bit as an alternate version after some time kinda like the songs in Payday 2

[@Wrath_0]

I feel like this slaps a little more than the official meganeko release

[@keotap6]

The 8 string sounds so much better on the original release tho...

[@tvcoder4life103]

THIS IS MUCH BETTER

[@Skeptical0666]

wow this is fucking amazing, better than the first one? gahdamn

[@deathenhancer484]

I dont know why but this reminds of Sonic Riders for whatever reason, it's mostly a vague feeling

[@KillerKitten]

This is Fire.

[@2dragonfire514]

This version is better for a standalone song, but the current version fits gameplay much better ngl.

[@arxeonop]

Wait this is great

[@SomeKindaSpy]

I feel like when you get to wave 50 or something the theme should change to this version.

[@Gangstablook]

Who else thinks this is better

[@Scazoid]

Honestly i prefer this version's guitar part
