Stay Fresh With This Funky Splatoon Themed Album From GameChops

The Album cover kinda scares me! And so does the music! At least, that Kid-now-squid-now remix does, lol.

@Liam_Doolan Hey, you're right! That one is really good! Plus, anything featuring the squid sisters is a bonus

That's fresh.

Didn't care for it much. It felt like they just took a few hours, did these, and tossed them up on the net. They don't really feel professional, and sound amateurish. Basically it isn't my cup of tea.

As much as this's indeed a neat idea, the quality of songs is simply cheap (though "Show Me Dat Ink!" is certainly the best in overall, just like @Liam_Doolan and @Nicolai mentioned). That's a pity. Still hoping at least for the official OST, or even better, completely new Squid Sisters song album .

Not bad, but would really love for the official OST, the music of this game is terrific.

"Squid Girls!" uses whatever that track from the Splatfest announcement is, as does, thanks to being tabbed away from changing the track, "Octoling Assault!". Music prolly plays on my baser brain, and I don't mind.

Hold on to your tentacles!

Oh gosh, it's all remixes... exclusively doing remixes isn't real music guys, sorry :/

I love GameChops and have bought multiple albums already So awesome Splatoon is next ^^ Awesome artists they are

Hey, good try. Mostly very hard to listen to for me. It all seems pretty pointless as none of it is different enough and certainly added nothing to the original tracks. I think I want something official. This stuff gets repetitive and boring fast as they do so little with it. In all fairness I didn't listen to more of a minute of any of them before skipping around to see if anything caught my ear.

I mean, when you are playing you hear these tracks a ton and none of them get boring (though I'm ready for a couple more tunes in the mix), but these got boring in 20 seconds and then barely change through their length.

Not for me and I love "remixes" especially in the OCRemix vein where they try to spin it or take a different slant, or add something new or switch up the genre, or give primitive retro tunes a new depth. This just flattens everything for me. I recognized some of the artists, too, so that's disappointing.

Considering you are able to download it for free, I don't know what the fuss is about if you're not a fan of it. Personally, I really like the music in Splatoon. Some of these tracks, while lacking much creativity, are still pretty cool.

Haven't listened to the album but the game music is well done. SPOILER: I found it very amusing during the final stretch of the battle against DJ Octavio when that cheesy squid sisters techno song starts bumping and cuttlefish starts dancing. It was one of those laugh-out-loud moments like you get in a Hideki Kamyia game.

And now we wait for the C&D's to start flying...

IF this was Hasbro they wouldn't sue because it is crap and Hasbro only sues the people who are good.

If only you could use that squid hair designs in the game :Y

Thanks for the post Liam! And I appreciate the kind words from the listeners who recognized that we just wanted to put out some fun tracks for free because we're all big fans of the game

@aaronsullivan thanks for the comment, sorry you weren't feeling it. This was a bit of a departure from our usual format, as most tracks were put together in the past two weeks. We wanted to share our appreciation for the game and the soundtrack, and have a little fun! Usually we spend months or years on an album this size, so that's why we're offering Splatunes for free!

@AyeHaley thx for the support! <3

@FunkyMonkey ^^

@DjCUTMAN good stuff on all the music. Especially in such a short time. A lot of remix albums can take years-- especially to even coordinate people.

I'm not as much a fan of the electronic or techno stuff, but still several of these tracks were far enough from that to catch my attention. Good grooves

I recognized bLiNd, do you do stuff on Overclocked too?

@coolaggro Thx so much! I've done a few things with OCR over the years, a great community of people over there. Since starting my label GameChops in 2012, almost all of my attention goes there. I still rock some OCRemixes in my live sets tho

@DjCUTMAN nice well love the megaman reference even just in your name. I'll check out more of your stuff later this week!

OCR is severely lacking in Advance Wars and Muramasa music-- if you're looking for any ideas on untapped markets!

@DjCUTMAN fair enough. That explains what I was hearing and it's cool how you are offering this. I'm really loving Splatoon so I like seeing all the love it gets! Thanks for that. Plus, I'm sure plenty of people will enjoy some of these tracks.

@FunkyMonkey We aren't fussing. Look at the end of the article, we are asked our opinions, so we are giving them.

@Tiredman this entire remix album was put together in the past two weeks. I agree it is not a professionally produced album, but many of the musicians who contributed songs are professional producers who create music full time. Be sure to give Splatunes a listen in a good pair of speakers or headphones for the full effect!
