Haltmann Works Co. HQ
| ||||||||||
|
"Haltmann Works Co. HQ" is an arrangement of "The Noble Haltmann" from Kirby: Planet Robobot which acts as an alternate form of the motif.
Composition
"Haltmann Works Co. HQ" is a fast but wary theme which uses the first four notes of "The Noble Haltmann" a number of times with various improvisations filling the in-betweens. It is then followed by "Green Greens" and a particular spin on "Bright Spinning Planet", with "Haltmann Works Co. HQ" quietly sneaking into the very end of the track before it loops back.
"Combat Evaluation Program" is a fairly straightforward remix of "Haltmann Works Co. HQ", with the only major difference being what instruments are used.

"Combat Evaluation Program" is featured in many battles in The True Arena, where every level boss from Meta Knightmare Returns uses it in place of their normal theme. Other bosses, such as Mid-Boss All-Stars and the game mode bosses of Meta Knightmare Returns, use their own music as normal.
