Tentacular Circus is a song performed by Turquoise October.
Description
Tentacular Circus, like many Turquoise October songs, is an electronic song, featuring many chiptune influences and unorthodox production. It appears to contain various unusual samples of vocals, whistles, bells and trumpets. It is heard in the Octo Valley missions Gusher Gauntlet, Inkrail Skyscape, Tumbling Splatforms, Pinwheel Power Plant, and can also be heard in Squid Beatz.
It makes a return in Splatoon 2, alongside Cephaloparade and Octoling Rendezvous, and is heard in Octo Canyon missions The Octopark and The Octogalaxy. However, it is unavailable in Squid Beatz 2.
Other versions
Tentacular Circus (Splatoon single-player trailer)
Tentacular Circus was first heard in the reveal trailer for Octo Valley. It starts playing about 37 seconds in, after a short Cephaloparade remix. Unlike other versions, it has a proper ending, consisting of a modified version of the beginning.
Tentacular Circus (Kettle)
This version of the song is simply the beat played from 0:02 to 0:04, but muffled and echoey, making it sound like it is being played from a distance. It plays when the camera is near a kettle containing a level with the main track.
Etymology
Tentacular is an adjective simply describing things of or related to tentacles, but combined with the implications of circus, could potentially be read as a portmanteau of 'tentacle' and 'spectacular'.
