Development
On April 17, 2011, Reverge Labs uploaded a video to YouTube announcing that was working on the Skullgirls score. In the video, Yamane expressed that she "experimented with the rhythm and different sounds to try to heighten the impact of the unique art" when Reverge requested her to make the music of the game "jazzy".

In a press release posted on the Reverge Labs official website on April 22, 2011, Richard Wyckoff, CEO of the company, explained that the developers sought out Yamane because they "knew her mixture of haunting gothic themes, jazz and rock would lend itself perfectly to Skullgirls' 'Dark Deco' style." According to Peter Bartholow, then the lead designer of Skullgirls, "concept art of the stages and some story background" was presented to Yamane to make the first track of the game and define the rest of the soundtrack.

Trivia

 * 'Clueless Trip' and the [cutscene] versions of 'Moonlit Melee', 'The Seat of Power' and 'The Fish Man's Dance' are the only non-DLC tracks that were not included in the Skullgirls Original Soundtrack.
 * 'Clueless Trip' is only heard during the Unlimited Hat Works cutscene, and was most likely not included in the album due to the track being very simple.
 * 'Royal Canopy Waltz', 'The Dreams We Left Behind', 'The Crowd Goes Wild' and 'The Crowd Goes Home' are the only stage themes not to be composed by Michiru Yamane.
 * 'Bath of Sekhmet' and 'NMO Arena (Empty)' are the only stage variants in the game to have unique music.
 * It should be noted however that 'Bath of Sekhmet' used to use the same stage music as 'Bath of Tefnut' until the April 17, 2015 patch update.
