I Wrote a lot about Octavios music Teehee. (both his themes, Callie and his collab and 3MIX)
something I found interesting. Was how in splatoon1 his voice was much more like softer, not that grimy feel he has now, (although he still has it in his dialog so idk-) which makes me think he recorded the vocals at the beginning of the war, plus it makes sense due to the first theme feeling very like, authoritative, it was very out there, plus the chanting where it goes “U A, U O A” which gives it a huge octarian feel, along with the bells as if it’s the end Y’know? Also all the beat drops and wind-ups, along with a considerable tech feel, the synthetic kinda noises, which kinda show's how he was still learning, especially how he kinda loses control for a moment in one of the fazes where it’s like the disks jog back and forth, along with how kinda quiet it is compared to the BOOM his other themes have, which I can say the same with his voice, (ignoring the term balls dropped here) it shows how once he gained more popularity as a DJ he just got louder, and the weird voice box he has now is most likely due to his old age and his throat sounding like it’s sore as fuck,
Although comparing this to his remix of his own theme in Splatoon3 is much faster yet the background noise is more chillax, you can still faintly hear the ‘u a, u o a’ in the beat, yet seconds after shit goes ham in an ‘in your face' manner as he starts spitting bars, instead of a quiet voice with slightly louder music doing the work it’s the opposite here, his voice being louder and the backbeat matching his words, also it sounds a little intergalactic which is ironic cause he ends up helping you in space, you can’t hear the chanting anymore most likely because he fights you alone on the surface, which he just does himself with some of the beats, also it’s most likely as short as it is due to not having the great zapfish and being defeated quicker than the other two times.
Ok so back to splatoon2, Callie and him practically collabed instead of him using his own theme, with Bomb Bomb Blush Ft:Callie, It still has very much octavios i guess preference, except it’s much more expansive with different styles of music, showing how over the years he used other music to mix with his own (which is DJ-Ing at its finest) yet still has much of a threatening army tone, yet again here he uses the chanting beat instead of having the octarians do it most likely to let Callie sing her ass off, so they don’t steal her spot-light, yet there’s another beat that sounds almost inspiring like to give hope to his people in a way, cause if you really think about it, they are the good guys in their eyes, when in reality octavio is more in the grey area, hence the mix of tense and threatening parts compared to callies, which is most likely why he kidnapped her in the first place, kinda a ‘hey your happy and inspiring ig, make my people hope or something’ way. It really is a collab as well, like neither of them are going overboard on the other, they both get their moments and Octavio doesn't even rap at all, he’s just the backbeat, and when Callie takes a breather that’s when he goes ham with the beat,
Splatoon3 Calamari Inkarnationen3MIX has its typical Octavio start, but now mixed with the new trio's national Instruments which once again shows his vast knowledge abt music, as shiver and Frye sing their asses off, Octavio took calamari incantation and MADE It more of an incantation, it’s a mix between Octarian music and inkling music, this is something completely different than what he usually makes, which shows he really likes this fucking song, (even though he denys it but that's cause he's salty)
and wants to take it to its full potential, he even adds a little of the music that’s been playing at splatfests for years, like the whistles and drums, it also has much of an electric feel to it which is most likely conforming to frye, what I like most is the songs overall aura, like it gives off such a cocky yet hopeful vibe, he also makes sure to keep the notes relatively the same for Marie and Callie when they sing on their own, but the more they get into it the more hyped up the song gets, as they finish their lines, as it goes back to the singless jam, i love how like culturally aware he is, he’s like “aight, we got a throat singer, a theatrical singer, J-pop, and an inkling of African descent along with Big-man’s Brazilian ass, “ so he incorporates ALLL OF IT into one, and he does it in such a good way that none are overdoing the other, which like we Stan, he’s like “ok the inkling Jpop shit is getting old so, lemme yassify it losers"
And fucking does it, it sounds like he listens to everyone’s fucking music and makes sure it all fits their vibe so they can give their best performances, which keep in mind this is playing when your SAVING THE WHOLE WORLD, so they better fucking be giving their best. Faintly at some points you can hear him say some stuff too, but it’s mixed in with the drops of notes so it’s hard to catch, I also love the back chorus, which he most likely got from his own people, it sounds practically “heavenly” which is what he calls the song on multiple occasions, so it makes sense.
In conclusion I believe he picked up music more for his people than himself, but genuinely loving music and making it, it once brought hope to his people, and then finally in splatoon3 it’s bringing hope to everyone, which I think shows a huge character development in his case, I don’t think he helps you just to beat a common enemy, but because he wants to protect, and I find that very admirable, he really fits the title of king.
i wrote this at 6AM after no sleep
