Also, we should talk about the song "Fishing Frenzy", which plays during Known Occurrences.

The chaotic 31/16 time signature gives us a feeling of imminent danger.

The nightmare of Grillers and ferocious Salmonids chasing after you might linger even when you close your eyes.

Fishing Frenzy is a song performed by ω-3.

Description

Fishing Frenzy starts off with a timpani sequence, accompanied by an electronic whine similar to an alarm. The electronic production then builds up, as cellos and more drums are added. Later on, there is a cello solo, which features many fast-paced rhythms and notes. The song plays during Known Occurrences in Salmon Run matches, replacing Deluge Dirge or Frantic Aspic. It can also be heard in Squid Beatz 2 after hearing it in a Salmon Run match, with a maximum score of 140 and 333 in Normal and Hard modes, respectively.

In Salmon Run Next Wave, this song only plays in certain higher-risk events, namely Rush, Fog, The Griller, and Cohock Charge.
