Sea Me Now is a song created by Front Roe in Splatoon 3.[1][2]

Description

Similarly to the music of Squid Squad, Sea Me Now is a blend of rock, punk, and electronic music. It starts guitar-heavy, and then vocals are added to the song as the drums pick up speed. Cheering is heard briefly, followed by a solo sung by 001Nite along with guitar, bass, and drums. Later, a synth is added in between 001Nite's vocal breaks during the chorus. After the chorus, the instruments return to the opening rhythm at the same pace as the chorus, before 001Nite starts singing again. The guitar and bass play for a moment before the drums cue the synth to return to the same rhythm played after the chorus. After a cheer, a snare-heavy drum fill is heard, and the song loops back to the part after 001Nite sings.

Other versions

Sea Me Now (Live)

Sea Me Now had a live arrangement written by Tetsuya Oyama and performed at the Deep Cut Concert at Nintendo Live 2022 along with Clickbait, and several Deep Cut songs. This rendition of the song features more precautions and a clearer sounding synth part as well as giving the song a proper conclusion unlike the original which would loop after about 1:30 minutes in. The Splatune 3 release keeps the audience's clapping from the live recording in order to keep a smooth transitions into Anarchy Rainbow.

Quotes

Still there? We haven't lost all credibility? Then check out Front Roe's new hit! It's called "Sea Me Now," and I say it wails. Our musicologist says, "Minor chords dance with ascendant harmonies while fuzzy guitars lay down a punchy, up-tempo base." Bah. "It wails" is shorter.
