[Game Music] Splatoon BGM and Popular Songs Compilation

A Vocaloid producer who is also a music writerAraki Jakkan
I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

In this article, I’ll be introducing the background music from the massively popular Splatoon game series, which first launched as a title for the Nintendo Wii U!

Splatoon puts a lot of emphasis on its soundtrack.

I’m sure many of you have found yourselves growing to love the tracks as you play.

The live events where in-game characters perform have also been a huge hit every time they’re held.

I’ve put together a list of some of the most popular songs in the series, so be sure to check them out!
