I think a better analogy would be to remix Yankee doodle (if you're American like me), but ye still works lol. Also why do I keep seeing you everywhere lol.
Listen closely! The main vocals are actually children! This song isn't just a traditional version of Calimari Inkantation, it's in fact the winning performance of the first annual Youth Folk Singing Contest! This performance lead to the winners Callie and Marie becoming inkopolis stars!
They actually do have a video of young Marie and Callie performing it, but it was only released on the Japanese Nintendo channel (as far as I could tell.) Here; th-cam.com/video/4RBG4KLnGjY/w-d-xo.html It was released six years ago, and I've never really seen anyone talk about it.
Ah yes, the song that used to be a song for one part of the Splatoon world (Calamari County), but is now an over-popular song sung all across the world by all inklings and most Octolings!
According to lore, the melody itself is even older and its said to be ingrained into the cephalopods dna. Calamari inkantation is the modern reinterpretation of the heavenly melody
@@jaimedanielhernandezrios5398 In the song Octoling Rendezvous, there is a bit where it kind of sounds like the Calamari Inkantation, so maybe it was the Octoling's interpretation of the melody
You can also hear fireworks and waves crashing Fireworks are similar to the burst bombs, so they could represent Callie and the waves could represent Marie. It’s as if someone was paying tribute to the Squid Sisters after what happened to them and then their reunion
this makes me excited for splatoon 3 i honestly hope we get more info about calamari county and other lore stuff and it NOT being "oh zapfish lost xdxd funy go save it lol" again
splatoon 3 takes place in splatsville, which is very far away from inkopolis plaza and square. so it’s possible we won’t see any of the idols we know of, the single player campaign could be (and should be,) COMPLETELY different from the last games. so dw! the chances of “oh no zapfish :( find them :(( and i can’t do it myself some reason :(((“ is low :)
This sorta reminds me of when i used to be a youth traditional dancer (which is basically some student to chooses to learn traditional dances and dance in a competition) and would usually travel to a lot of competitions to dance…. Even though i keep failing in all of them because of the amount of accesories and makeup i had to wear
So let me get this straight Calimari Inkantation the all time favourite originated from some village like realestate in the middle of no where? Oh my living lord. So I guess that where maris lives since Callie lives somewhere else ish
Yeah, now I'm sure this song was originally a Japanese ritual song that worshiped an ocean god and it survived to the Inkling age due to magic (and spoilers). I don't know what else could be with this one song.
I agree with your theorie even tough mine is a little different. In splatoon 3 story mode we learn why inklings and any other splatoon species are so human like. the reason are the weird psychic alterna crystals that are literaly powerd by humanities hopes and dreams which fused with the seacreatures dna and are what made them want to go to the surface to beginnt with. Also calamari inkantation is stated multiple times to resonate with every sea creatures dna. So my theorie is every version of it contain parts of the last song ever created by humanity

I like to imagine that Cap'n Cuttlefish is the one who started the vocals, and Callie and Marie start after- also, if you listen closely you might be able to distinguish Callie and Marie's voices. And Young Link.
To me this version of the inkantation gives me two kinds of vibes: a late night summer festival, maybe one in one of the smaller towns of the splatoon world, OR...and hear me out cause you've probably heard this from another comment....Inkling soldiers marching off to fight the Octolings during the great turf war. Seriously, take away the taiko drums, flutes, and the Shamisen and this has tve beat of a marching song/military cadence.
Personally I like the latter. It give some weight on the song. Reminds me of marching songs of the First World War on both sides. In fact Great turf war is basically splatoon ver. Of Ww1
[Verse 1] Too many foes, shoulda shoulda Let out the melody that thrills inside of me That melody that runs in our heart to assure victory What you need is it then BANG BANG BANG [Verse 2] (WIP, but it's something about callie and marie filling you with hope and determination.

Lol the squid sisters remixed a folk song and got famous. Imagine if someone remixed Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and got a career from it
Imma go do that!!!!!!!!!!!!
Actually Mozart himself remixed “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” 12 times! Find it on TH-cam, it’s called “12 variations on ah vous dirais-je maman”
I think a better analogy would be to remix Yankee doodle (if you're American like me), but ye still works lol.
Also why do I keep seeing you everywhere lol.
I’m pretty sure it’s not just a folk song, it’s been stated it has mild hypnotic properties
Mozart literally remixed Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, funnily enough.

@octoguygmod I never noticed that before
This version feels like something you would hear if you lived in 2nd century Japan. So hyped for Splatoon 3 on Friday
This sounds like something you'd hear during an obon (japanese summer festival)
More like 17th century Japan, during the start of the Edo period.
So hyped for splatoon 3.
Man that went soo fast...
People viewing during Splatfests, I'm reconing Skipper during Chicken vs. Egg and you can hear this song in the background!
You can also hear fireworks and waves crashing

what would be amazing is if after the credits roll with the ending song, before it closed you could hear this playing faintly

They’ve confirmed that Callie and Marie more or less grew up in the same town in Calamari Country, just different households.

woomy’s awakening
I can't unhear it now!
I heard it
Yo, play this on 1.25 speed, so upbeat and fun.

I love the taiko drums dammit I always will

If you put it on 2x speed it sounds kinda like squid sisters calamari inkantation
if you did recon on skipper pavilion during a splatfest you could hear and instrumental version of this but its kinda quiet
I can't unsee this being played in front of a group of restrained Octolings in order to... "recruit" them as Squidbeaks
We better get a Legends Arkoos like game for splatoon.

Why did you do this to me? ;-;
i have a headcanon that the original calamari inkantation (this one lol) is always sang in ancient inkish or whatever inkling language is called
"Hipster whistling"
Hopefully old traditions of singing in thanks to nature for food and health, will continue into the far future!
part of the backing taiko drums sounds like the o-daiko part of a song called miyake for a second :)
Is this fan-made? If not, where do you hear this?
it's not in the game, it's only in the soundtrack
