"Vegetable Valley" is a theme composed by Hirokazu Ando for Kirby's Adventure.


Composition

Vegetable Valley is a theme an upbeat theme with about 180 BPM. This lively song starts in the key of G major with a few chords playing (in the US/ Japanese version). The first portion of this theme introduces the melody, which afterwards it goes into the second portion of the theme. This portion turns the song into B major. Afterwards, the theme repeats a second time (with a few differences here and there), and the song loops.

Game appearances

Kirby's Adventure / Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land

The theme is used mostly in the level of the same name, although it can be heard in some stages of other levels.

In Kirby's Adventure, a slightly different arrangement of theme plays in the Crane Fever Sub-Game, while the crane is still.

Interestingly, in the European/Australian NES and Wii Virtual Console versions of Kirby's Adventure, the intro of "Vegetable Valley" is slightly different.

In the Sound Test of Kirby's Adventure, the normal version can be found as Music 00, a version of it without intro can be found as Music 01, and the Crane Fever version can be found as Music 09. In the Sound Test of Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, the theme can be found as Music 02. The Nightmare in Dream Land arrangement was done by Jun Ishikawa.
