Nintendo Music/The artists of Splatoon
Listed separately from the Splatoon, Splatoon 2, and Splatoon 3 sections of the app, there are additional playlists in the "The artists of Splatoon" section containing tracks grouped by in-universe artists. These playlists (except for the Grizzco Industries, DJ Lee Fish, and Seven Seas Crew playlists) feature descriptions of the artists, which are mostly taken from the Splatoon Base website, but with some slight changes: the Bottom Feeders description is corrected to state that their shared last name is "Feeder" rather than "Bottom", the SashiMori description replaces "tweet" with "social-media post", and the Dedf1sh description is changed to use gender-neutral pronouns rather than female pronouns.
The playlists in Nintendo Music are arranged in a varying order based on the date and region. A set order is used below that likely does not match the order used in the app.

Branching out from pop music and idol anthems, the group drawns on a wide range of influences, including punk, rock, and punk rock!

Chirpy Chips

| “ | A four-piece band tearing up the charts with its catchy, sparkling electronic sound and the voice of its vocalist, Harmony.

Their live concerts are popular for their use of retro video-game consoles and performances where the members glow in the dark in sync with the music. Since they process their recorded vocals, their live concerts are often lip-synched. | ” |

Octoplush

But no matter how "fuzzy" things get, the Octarians stay in step with the music, diligently and faithfully carrying out their work. | ” |

Trivia
- Calamari Inkantation 3MIX is the only song to be featured in two playlists as opposed to one, being featured in both the Squid Sisters and Deep Cut playlists.
- Ancho-V Games is the only artist with more than one song to not have a playlist in this section, though this is likely because all of their songs are already featured in Splatoon 3's "Tableturf Battle" playlist.
