The '''Butter Building theme''' is composed by [[Hirokazu Ando]] for ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''. It is one of the most well known themes in the [[Kirby (series)|Kirby series]].
'''"Butter Building"''' is a theme originating in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'', and has since returned in many games in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]]. It was composed by [[Hirokazu Ando]].

"Butter Building" is a jolly theme in E major and 4/4. A notable characteristic trait of this piece is the scarce usage of its tonic. It starts with a double dominant introductory segment. Its melody consists of short phrases with a repeated syncopated first note and movement down or up until stopping on the mediant or dominant, hinting at the key; this is followed by a high-pitched response. The melody repeats with a different ending, that leads into the second portion. This part has a more lyrical melody that contains some phrasing elements from "[[Vegetable Valley (theme)|Vegetable Valley]]". This part emphasizes the minor harmonies associated with the mediant G-sharp. However, the minor does not stay long, as it gives way to dominant, and soon after the track loops.
