The player must clear either E11Bodacious Rotation Station or F02Slow Ride Station to access this test. The shortest way to access this station is to clear F02 Slow Ride Station.
Octostomp Redux uses the same attacks as Neo Octostomp does in the second phase of The Octostomp Returns, but gets up from its stomping attacks much faster. Additionally, it launches bubbles like the Bubble Blower's from its sides after its armor is destroyed, making it harder to ink.
Phase 2
Octostomp Redux will have two more buckles on its sides, all of which must be destroyed to remove its armor. It can also spit Bubble Blower bubbles and perform two faceplants in succession, trying to fake the player out with the first before following up with the second one.
Phase 3
Octostomp Redux gains two more faces like Neo Octostomp did in its third phase, and the extra buckles are moved to the new faces. All three faces will spit Bubble Blower bubbles followed up by a Splatling volley to burst them, and when it loses its armor, Octostomp Redux will produce even more bubbles when it faceplants.

Trivia
The subtitle is a reference to the nineties game show Shop 'til You Drop, or the 1979 album that inspired its name, Bop till You Drop by Ry Cooder, and the title comes from a term describing when a song is playing (usually dubstep music) and the music accelerates in rhythm.
