Battle Defeat is a song.
Description
Battle Defeat refers to multiple music tracks across Splatoon and Splatoon 2, each playing after losing a match in any multiplayer mode, rather than Battle Victory if victorious. The song consists of two parts: the short defeat jingle that plays at the beginning as the results are declared, and the main part of the song that loops over the results screen. It is a gloomy theme, meant to convey the despair felt after the loss of a match, featuring prominent electronic sound effects and drum beats. The jingle has a "burp" sound, quite similar to various Turquoise October songs. It can also be heard in Squid Beatz. However, in Splatune, the jingle is split into a separate track.
Remixes and covers
Ink Another Day
A cover by Wet Floor replaces the original in Splatoon 2 as the new failure theme. Unlike Battle Defeat, it can also be heard in Squid Beatz 2, with a maximum score of 27 and 27 in Normal and Hard modes, respectively, although it does not include the defeat jingle. It was also featured in the Inkoming! EP released by Tower Records.
Defeat - Jingle
Unlike the original, this version just plays the opening jingle, leaving the looping victory theme as a separate track in every instance, not just in Splatune. Compared to Splatoon 2's Victory jingle, which is near identical to the first game's, the Defeat jingle is a more extensive remix, eschewing the "burp" noises of the original.
Party's Over
Party's Over is another cover of the defeat theme by Off the Hook. The instrumentation is based off Ink Another Day, and features Pearl rapping over the beat. Despite being credited as an Off the Hook song, Marina does not appear to play a role in this version. It replaces Ink Another Day in Splatfests, playing after the standard defeat jingle. It can also be heard in Squid Beatz 2, with a maximum score of 22 and 30 in Normal and Hard modes, respectively.
