# The History of the Pokémon World: music credits

The music on /lab/world-history (and in the videos it makes) is four
original tracks released under CC0 on OpenGameArt.org by cynicmusic (The
Cynic Project, pixelsphere.org / cynicmusic.com). None of it is music from,
or a cover or remix of, any Pokémon game. Each licence was checked on the
track's page when it was added (November 2026). The film plays the tracks
together as layers and mixes them per chapter; the whooshes, booms,
rumbles, thunder and shimmers are synthesised in the browser.
