Music Sheets

**Music Sheets** are items that allow Morusque in The Slums to play music on his guitar. Given that Morusque didn't have any songs to play, he wasn't able to use his guitar, so once B12 and the Cat give him the sheet music, he begins to do so.

All songs are written by **Yann van der Cruyssen**, and released in the official Soundtrack to the game.

The players can find eight music sheets in various locations in the slums and can bring them to Morusque. If they collect them all, they are rewarded with the Music Badge and also can earn the silver Meowlody trophy.

When all Sheets are collected and delivered, the Music Badge is received and can be seen on the right side of the Cat’s Quadruped-Backpack.

## The Sheets

The sheets are conveniently in numerical order in this image, which is the texture used in-game for the sheets: no higher resolution is available.

Most of the sheets have a title in the game's Primary alphabet. When you hand them to Morusuque, he reads that title, and makes a comment, before playing the music.

### Sheet 1

The first sheet is in Momo's apartment, in a dark room on a shelf.

The text on the sheet says PETITE VALSE (="little waltz"). When you show it to Morusque, he says "**Petite valse**. Sounds cool! Here, watch that."

### Sheet 2

The second sheet is close to Clementine's apartment. Go the open window and move on over some boards to a balcony with a table. The music sheet is on the table.

When you show it to Morusque, he says "**Ballad of the lonely robot**. I think I can play this, look!"

Trivia note: this sheet contains The Lick, sort of the musical equivalent of the Wilhelm Scream.

### Sheet 3

The third sheet can be found at Elliot Programming, on the first floor, pinned to a large robot portrait.

When you show it to Morusque, he says "**Untitled** This tune contains exactly 44 notes."

This title is not visible on the sheet, which uses a MIDI score rather than a traditional music score. There are three annotations about how to play the music on the sheet: MOINS VITE (="less fast"/"slower") MOINS FORT (="less strong"/"gentler") APPUYE (APPUYÉ="pressed"/"accented" - that is, emphasize this piece.)

The Outer Wilds theme is 46 notes. What's 44? Does it really have 44 in the image?

### Sheet 4

The fourth sheet is on the ground near robot Azooz, who wants to sell it for an Energy Drink. Pick up the Energy Drink from the vending machine near Morusque and take it to Azooz.

When you show it to Morusque, he says "**The way you compute tonight**. Oh that's a nice one. hear me out!

### Sheet 5

The fifth sheet is in the Dufer Bar at the upper floor on a table. A golden Maneki-neko can be seen on the shelf above.

When you show it to Morusque, he says "**Tomorrows**. Sounds cool! here, watch that."

### Sheet 6

The sixth sheet is in Clementine's apartment, in the bedroom on the bookshelf near the bed.

When you show it to Morusque, he says "**Cool down**. I think I can play this, look!"

Morusque is for once incorrect: the title written on this piece is "COME ON".

B-12 also "erroneously" calls this piece "Cool down". It's possible that the name was changed after the texture for this sheet was finalized, perhaps so that it would not have been misinterpreted as intended to be suggestive.

### Sheet 7

The seventh sheet is in Jess' Library, where it is pinned to the piano.

When you show it to Morusque, he says "**Mildly important information** This one was composed by a renowned algorithm."

### Sheet 8

The eighth sheet is in a safe in a heap of debris past Morusque, in a dark corner near him next to the shut sewer to the left. The safe has the Safe's Mysterious Password attached, which is a clue on how to find the Digicode to the safe. You can either follow the clue, or just key in the code:

When you show it to Morusque, he says "**Unreadable sheet music** Hum... Not very readable but I can still try ..."

Morusque is correct: the text on this sheet is not legible. Two letters of the title can be made out: "RA"

### Sheets 9 & 10

The last two textures on the texturemap are not real sheets; they are the graphics for the blank back sides of all the other music sheets.

## Annotations for accompaniment

The music on the sheets also has various letters to annotate it: A, B, C (looks similar to S), D, E, F, G. These seem to be Chord notation for accompaniment by guitar.
