Vegetable Valley (theme)
From WiKirby, your independent source of Kirby knowledge.
Jump to navigationJump to search
"Vegetable Valley" is a theme composed byHirokazu Ando forKirby's Adventure.
Composition[edit]
"Vegetable Valley" is an upbeat theme at the speed of 180 BPM. This lively song starts in G major begins with an eight measure long intro involving various chords playing in the foreground of the tune in a recognizable style of "Green Greens". The first portion of this theme plays a cheerful melody that plays twice before moving to the next eight measure portion. This portion turns the song into B major. Afterwards, the theme repeats a second time (with the third portion sounding similar to the first but with a descending bass), and the song loops.
Game appearances[edit]
Kirby's Adventure /Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land[edit]
In bothKirby's Adventure and its remake,Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, the theme is used inVegetable Valley - Stage 1,Vegetable Valley - Stage 3, andIce Cream Island - Stage 4. Exclusively in the originalKirby's Adventure, a slightly different arrangement of theme plays in theCrane FeverSub-Game, while the crane is still.
Interestingly, in the European and Australian NES versions ofKirby's Adventure, the intro of "Vegetable Valley" is melodically different. While most of the soundtrack is very slightly slower and lower in pitch due to adjustments made for the 50Hz refresh rate of PAL televisions commonplace at the time, this was the only melodic change made between regional versions.
In theSound Test ofKirby's Adventure, the normal version can be found as Music 00, a version of it without the intro can be found as Music 01, and the Crane Fever version can be found as Music 09. In the Sound Test ofKirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, the theme can be found as Music 02. TheNightmare in Dream Land arrangement was done byJun Ishikawa.[2]
