@@pmac_AKA_calicojackapparently, this song is also supposed to play in submerged castle, but apparently the creepy song that actually plays is hardcoded to the cave
@@Vwemmy it's likely not "supposed" to play there, those sublevels just got assigned this track as a possible placeholder since the submerged castle theme would take priority over it anyway
Wait a sec... Is this the one for that floor with the stumps and all the water? The one with water dumples, fiery bulblax, and withering blowhog all RIGHT on top of the spawn? God, what a horrific combination that was. Yet the music is so calming...
Its for Sublevel 6 in Hole Of Heroes. With tall stumps, White and Yellow Wollywogs, Hermant Crawmads & Water Dumples. Sublevel 10 on Dream Den is the same layout but with different music and a couple different enemies.
@@KayrenGTonly time I had to go back to a sublevel when I was playing through the game this week was because of this awful room 😭 prior floors eliminated most of my blue pikmin, leaving me with 9. I tried for like an hour to find a way to do the room with only 9 but I needed 15 for the treasure
@@yeenshep9856 I’m 99% sure the developers programmed the Dream Den to be hell without sprays and automatically make you lose just enough Pikmin to make it impossible to complete the cave 100% first try. On my first play through in years, not only was level 10 not 100% but I couldn’t even get all the weapons the Titan dropped when it died as it killed most of my non-yellows.
Something about this specific theme playing in this specific place with these specific enemies makes the whole instance appear surreal, as well as give it a sense of 'finality.' Fitting for one of the final floors/caves in the game. Dead on the center, surrounded by heavy amount of threats. Calming, yet dangerous. It's stunning. I really like how it makes the player feel--or rather, how it made *me* feel.
@@Goomba456 definitely, I personally played that cave recently 2 nights ago wrapping up the game. and wow I agree so much with the original commenter about this. like, it matches the feeling of being so near to the end of the game. like the music blends the message of "you are being presented some challenges situations" together with the surrealness of "this is one of the last things I'll do before it's over, the game will be completed". like almost feels a bit sad to fully finish a game you enjoy in a way, it's quite a journey.
Honestly this might be one of my favorite tracks. It's so calming, wven during the battle theme, although the sublevels they're related to are incredibly trickly and dangerous. Plus, this theme only plays twice in the game, on two caves in the final area. It feels like the calm before the storm. I must add, the battle theme is SUPER groovy. The tranquil synths mixed with the more upbeat and alert ones as well as the drums have a deep effect on my soul.
Sorry for the long comment. At long last, Hole of Heroes/Mystic Marsh/Theme of Impossible Sublevel Generation is finally here. This was always one of my favourite cave songs. Looks like that's the last of the Pikmin 2 complete mixes. In my opinion, this is the ultimate way to experience Pikmin 2's dynamic music, so once again, thanks for your services to the Pikmin community. I, and I'm sure others as well, really appreciate all the work you put into this. It was a long journey, but it sure was worth it. Kinda sad it has to end here. Or does it? Just to go off on a tangent real quick, I've never liked Pikmin 3 as much as the first two games. However, Pikmin 3 Deluxe looks to be adding a lot of content and addressing most of my problems with the original. It might not be Pikmin 4, but I'll take an improved version of 3 over nothing at all. With the Deluxe version only a month away now, I'm gonna stick around for the rest of the complete mixes from that game to be uploaded. Looking forward to seeing more from you in the future, captain. P.S. - If you made it this far, thanks for reading my silly ramblings. How do you feel about Pikmin 3 Deluxe and the changes/additions so far? P.P.S. - I really like your big band arrangements on SoundCloud.
Ness, thank you so very much for your continued kindness and positivity. ^^ I'm glad that there are others out there that I can please with this music, which I have wanted in this form for so long (long enough for me to learn how to put it together myself, the way I always envisioned it should be mixed). While this is quite a momentous occasion, having all of these tracks arranged in this manner, my work is far from over. Yes, the Pikmin 3 soundtrack is still lacking in several tracks, and I will continue until they are all complete, no matter how long it may take me to allot the time for. Additionally, there are other Pikmin-related projects in progress and coming soon which I cannot unveil yet, so do stay tuned! ^^ P.S. Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy the big band tunes! That is a facet of my career which I enjoy very much. Once the band is able to meet again I hope we can get to work performing more of them (which I have been busy writing as well as of late).
@@cris3760 Oh, hey there. Sorry for the late reply, but thank you for asking. I think Pikmin 3 Deluxe is the definitive version of Pikmin 3. The amount of content puts it on par with Pikmin 2, and a lot of unanswered questions I had regarding the plot were finally addressed in the new side stories. The return of the Piklopedia is also amazing, and really helps to flesh out the cast and give some insight on the new creatures. I also really like the new badge system, which encourages multiple playthroughs and also gives you more to do each individual playthrough if you want to acquire every single badge. Ultimately, I still have some problems with the game, but those problems exist on a fundamental level, and so they couldn't be addressed without going back to square one and redesigning the entire game from scratch. Overall, while I hold a much more positive view of the game than I did all those years ago, Pikmin 2 still holds the honour of being my favourite Pikmin game. Thankfully though, at the time of writing this, Pikmin 4 is less than a month away, and it looks like it actually has a chance to dethrone Pikmin 2 as the best game in the entire series!
@@PSIkidseeing this reply to an 11 month reply 8 minutes after you posted is so surreal, ha ha. Are you looking forward to Pikmin 4? I'm hyped. Pikmin 2 is already a large game story wise, but I wouldn't be surprised if Pikmin 4 is the game with the most "story" Also so happy that all 4 games are out on the switch. Nintendo is really pushing the Pikmin franchise, and I'm all for it!
This is pretty impressive music almost like it should be in a 90s movie like total recall or true lies or something it’s too good, most of the soundtrack for Pikmin 2 is underrated asf
Just wanted to say to you thank you for posting all the music for this game. Especially in such a neat and tidy order. The community will never forget this.
The title of this song in this video has been renamed from "Hole of Heroes" to "Flooded Stump". Another common unofficial name for this song is "Mystic Marsh". There is no official name for this song but "Flooded Stump" is similar to the comment on this song Kazumi Totaka left in the game files.
This feels chill, but apprehensive and wary at the same time. I adore the percussion in the Battle mix. The location this plays, and how it's the only location, poses such a detriment to this track. It's kind of a shame, really.
Hey, if you don't mind me asking, how did you extract these .bms files into listenable sounds? My friend wants to know and everything they've come upon seems to be extremely sketchy and unusable.
Hi there, Kris. I actually did not extract the audio from the .bms files. Instead, I recorded these from the game as it ran in real time. For more info on how the game files work, Waffles is incredibly knowledgeable: www.youtube.com/@WafflesMoguMogu
Alright is it just me or do the caves remind you of liminal spaces if you know you know. The shower room for example is just allll tile flooring and the music reminds me of a liminal space. same goes for this one too idk where it is played but it feels so liminal i love it all
Why does this sound so different from the other arrangements I've heard of this song? Are the notes in this song randomized? I know some songs in the game do that.

Fun Fact :
This song is actually coded to play in the Submerged Castle too
But that cave is hardcoded in a special way to play... You know, THAT song
I think the rest sublevel in Dream den is hard coded to play the rest theme and not this
@@ThePikminCaptain Both actually
*mmmmm mmmmm mmmmm mmmmm*
Just imagine another timeline if flooded stump is used as the theme for submerged castle instead of that cave's own theme
This song is used in a placeholder in a lot of other places as well so it’s no surprise
The fact that this beautiful song only plays one time in the whole game...
due to a glitch

it's easily the most difficult layout to navigate, even getting the chance to dismiss your Pikmin can be a challenge.

Those drums that kick in with the battle track are sick, best cave music in the game.
This is an incredible piece o' music.
Wish I had heard it past the drowning.
this one would perfectly fit pikmin 4's mud sublevels

One does NOT expect this track to go in this hard when you first hear it. That RnB kinda part that kicks in at the enemy near is godlike.

I've been putting the old track names in the descriptions too, to help keep things sraightened out.
Wait Kazumi Totaka left comments in the files?
The battle portion is so good.
This sublevel pisses me of because one time a wollywog immediately squished my pikmin when i first entered it
Theme of not having enough blue Pikmin to carry the treasure in the water
This theme is calming to me but in a different way it inspires me because of how it feels to me, resolute
absolutely beautiful track, I love pikmin so much
This is a great song I like it a lot pikmin 2 has some really great music for real.
The battle version of this track would make a great sampme
I like to come back to this masterpiece every once in a while.
Legit an unreal banger.

One of my favorites... Hate it only appears once in the final area for a short time only...
How did you extract this, if you don't mind me asking?
The bass in this song sends me to a higher plane...
the only music utuber i have notifications on for lol
This song has 2 hemiolas in it, really cool!
My favorite song to collect Skippy Peanut Butter to
I didn’t know that Hole of Heroes shares the same music with Mystic Marsh
They ARE the same
2:44 Mejor parte, la batería le da ese toque espectacular 👌
true
The battle tune makes me want to get up at 3am and get on a grindset.

@@olimar12345 I see! Thanks so much!
Next time I play Submerged Castle, I'm popping this video up and muting the game
I like to call this song the Wollywog song. Because you see a lot of Wollywogs and Wogpals on that floor in the Hole of Heroes cave dungeon.
2:34/2:45 Sounds like a final boss theme
yea...
Proud of you buddy!!!!
Holy shit, what a track
Just a reminder-
Be thankful the Hole of Heroes doesn’t have a Waterwraith.
He'd be cake with purples anyway lol
Alright is it just me or do the caves remind you of liminal spaces if you know you know. The shower room for example is just allll tile flooring and the music reminds me of a liminal space. same goes for this one too idk where it is played but it feels so liminal i love it all
I’m naming an area in my pikmin 2 romhack after this song.
Were the song names changed for the HD ports?
Good music, horrible subfloors
Why does this sound so different from the other arrangements I've heard of this song? Are the notes in this song randomized? I know some songs in the game do that.
The melody is selecting four "gestures" at random each time the song repeats, so it is very unlikely you'll hear the same four in a row twice.
@@olimar12345 Ah I see, thank you for telling me!
Yeah, the GilvaSunner upload was pretty different.
This video was on a link in the Pikmin fandom
The pikmin...it's real!
this sounds like the waterfall theme from undertale
I see it
[Laughter]
so...
three...
foreign...
Don’t worry, I’m just as confused as the five other people who liked this comment.
Four Words:Dream Den sublevel 10
The main theme sounds like it's from undertale just play this song near and undertale player and see what happens
No undertale has a inspirational from this track
It sounds like its saying "im tired louie" at 1:46
Kino
神秘的
"flooded stump" now?
Well this song got borked in the switch port
What do you mean?
And I thought that the removal of product placement was gonna be the worst thing about it.
In the Switch version, the lead instrument for this song and Concrete 1 is missing.
Mystic Marsh
