Description
Still Swimmin' is a track used as the battle defeat song during Splatfest Battles in Splatoon 3, replacing Learning Curve which normally plays outside of Splatfests. The main section lasts for about 12 seconds, which consists of electronic music with Shiver and Frye singing short phrases during two pauses, and Big Man singing a phrase at the end. After that, the music is replaced by a solo drum track, similar to Rinse/Repeat, Learning Curve, and Ego Overboard. The solo drum track has similar drum beats to that of Learning Curve, but with some minor differences and using different drum samples.
