Bowser's minions affected by the tone of the Dreambeats and Mario and Luigi falling asleep

TheDreambeats are a special type of music that appears inMario & Luigi: Dream Team. They cause those who hear it to fall asleep. Their name is a pun on "drumbeats."Prince Dreambert recognizes the sound, suggesting they are an ancient creation. Beings likeStarlow andPi'illos are immune. No "normal creatures" are able to resist, according to Dreambert. However, the Dreambeats cannot affect people in theDream World.Bowser andAntasma use the Dreambeats in order to gather energy for theDream Stone.

WhenMario andLuigi reach the summit ofMount Pajamaja, they seeAntasma,Bowser,Kamek,Private Goomp,Corporal Paraplonk, andSergeant Guy with four large speakers. Private Goomp then turns on the speakers and the Dreambeats start playing, making all who hear it fall asleep. Of the group at the mountain's summit, Prince Dreambert, Starlow, and Antasma are unaffected. Bowser covers his ears to protect himself, and the Mario Bros. nearly fall asleep. Luigi appears to be more affected than Mario, only being able to sleepwalk and stumble around.

The Dreambeats spread all across the island, even affecting people inside buildings likePi'illo Castle. Among the characters specifically seen affected areBroque Monsieur andBrickle.

The Bros. try to escape, but Luigi falls asleep while Mario fights the drowsiness. Prince Dreambert suggests going to the Dream World to escape the music until it is over. Mario does so by diving through theDream Portal of Luigi at aDreampoint on the mountain's summit. He lands inDreamy Mount Pajamaja, but the Dreambeats cause Luigi to fall into such a deep sleep that the Dream Portal closes while Mario is still in the Dream World. By the time the Bros. reopen the portal, the Dreambeats have stopped and the Mario Bros. continue on their journey.
