Template:Infobox song "Super Galaxtica" is the second track on the "Dropped Frames, Vol. 1" instrumental release by Mike Shinoda.

Background

"Super Galaxtica" is a song by Mike Shinoda made during the 2020 global COVID-19 pandemic.

"Super Galaxtica" was made on April 17, 2020 by Mike and streamed live to fans via Twitch.[1] The stream's title was "Nintendo Game Boy sounds" as parts of it were created with a Nintendo Game Boy. Mike used software called Nanoloop by Oliver Wittchow. Oliver made software that uses sounds already in the Game Boy, so users can use them like a keyboard - choose unique patches, put them in an arpeggio, etc.

Mike ran the Game Boy through his tape echo, what he referred to as his "gear of the week." He sampled the Game Boy samples individually as well, which he did when he originally got the Game Boy, and put them over his drum loop.

On his June 30, 2020 stream announcing the album, Mike said, "I named it Super Galaxtica partially because it sounded like space and also because you guys keep joking that the stuff I'm making sounds like aliens are coming down. So second track off the record, I wanted to reference that."[2]
