Pikmin 2 experimented a lot with level design using cave levels that piece together terrain segments in random assortments. But did you know that the music in those caves works the same way? Check out how Pikmin 2's amazing MIDI system constructs music in realtime and still reacts to the player's actions!

Big kudos to my friend Waffles for help with the inspiration, research, and audio examples for this video! This wouldn't have come to fruition without their help!
