"Vs. Zero" in "Monochrome Blend" fromThe Sound of Kirby Café 2 byShogo Sakai.

The theme is the first song featured in Track 10: "Monochrome Blend" alongsideDark Nebula Battle ofThe Sound of Kirby Café 2. It has a slow tempo similar to the "Bad Boss Brothers" arrangement, and the main melody of the track is mostly played on a saxophone.

Trivia[edit]

  • In the original version of the song, one of the backing channels at the end of the loop doesn't play as intended — it overflows on some notes, briefly going from a high pitch to a low pitch. This is because Jun Ishikawa used a bass instrument and went above the maximum pitch for said instrument.[2]
