Color Pulse

Color Pulse is a song performed by Off the Hook.

Description
Color Pulse is an energetic pop song, prominently featuring Pearl rapping whilst Marina sings. After the intro, Marina sings as Pearl intercuts with a few lines, before rapping her own verse, whilst Marina harmonises in the background with the same lines as the first section. Marina then sings a section, which she repeats with the final line slightly changed before the song is looped again. During Splatfests, Off the Hook perform this song at Deca Tower in Inkopolis Square. It can also be heard in Squid Beatz 2 after hearing it during a Splatfest.

Lyrics
The booklet included with Splatune 2 gives the official lyrics for Color Pulse. The lyrics are nonsensical; the Japanese hiragana simply gives the pronunciation.

Inkopolis News (Splatfest)
This version has the vocals and a lot of the instruments taken out for a simpler version. It is played immediately after the player presses and  on the start screen during a Splatfest and plays during Inkopolis News, replacing the regular Inkopolis News song. After the news segment ends, the regular song starts to be performed.

Color Pulse (Live)
During live performances, an extended version of Color Pulse is used. Although each performance is slightly different due to the live bands, they retain the same strong structure. The main difference from the regular version is a new break from Marina, as she scratches the beat on her set containing samples of various Inkling sound effects, and immediately afterwards a new melody is subtly laid on the beat. It now has a definite ending to the song, repeating the intro. A recording of this version from their first live concert at Haikaraibu at Tokaigi 2018 can be found in Octotune.

Trivia

 * Despite the fact that the name of City of Color was changed to City of Colour in Europe to suit regional spelling differences, Color Pulse is not renamed Colour Pulse for European regions.
