Bomb Rush Blush (DJ Octavio Remix)
A new version was composed for use in Splatoon 2, it is now credited as a DJ Octavio song, with Callie as a featured artist. Production wise, it is almost completely different, functioning more as an original song with samples from Bomb Rush Blush. It starts off with the intro, modified from the original, before transitioning to a brand new, electronic/dubstep composition. It also interpolates the melody from the "Onward!" jingle heard after beating a mission, which was also interpolated in I am Octavio. During Splatoon 2's final battle (which the subtitle for the mission is named after the song), Agent 4 arrives to meet a brainwashed Callie, who is revealed to be working with DJ Octavio, who brags about how they "remixed" Callie's brain, and in addition, her song. Together, they perform the song as they battle Agent 4. The song plays during phases 1 and 2, before it changes to Tidal Rush for phase 3.

Tidal Rush
