Type: Single
Released: September 21, 2025
Performed by: Mille (Draco & Hydraphonics)

"SwordQuest: Earth, Wind, & Fire (& Water)" is a single recorded by Draco with contributions by Hydraphonics and released under the moniker of Mille the Utahraptor, the Gatorbox mascot associated with creating and composing music. The track is a hybrid of a mash-up and remix that combines the instrumental and vocals of "September" by Earth, Wind, & Fire with the sound effects and ambient music of the SwordQuest games from the Atari 2600. It was released on September 21, 2025 with the month and day being a reference to the one mentioned in the original song. It also coincided with the start of the SwordQuest completion streams that shared a name with the single.

Music Video

The video for the single is a cartoon animated in the style of an interactive comic book that follows Millé as he is warped into the Atari 2600 console to complete the quest of finding the elusive bejeweled sword that was meant to be the final prize of the SwordQuest contests Atari ran in the 1980's. The majority of the music video was animated by Draco (as "Gatorbox Nihon Animation Co. Ltd.") and features artwork done by Roastmaster and other contributing artists.
