It's time for the 30th Anniversary Kirby Quiz!

As most are probably aware, Forgotten Land comes out in a week, so I wanted to kind of kick off its release with another Kirby only quiz.  Good luck on 20 melodies of Kirby!  Results will be posted sometime 3/25/2022 in the afternoon EST timeframe (idk like 3-5 pm)

I wasn't planning on doing another one of these, but... someone specifically requested it, so here you go!

MSF's Non-VGM Quiz 2!

I'd like to post answers next Sunday (one week from now), but if people want more time I can extend the round further.

Now that you've all had a chance to enjoy Forgotten Land for a bit, let's check on how the quiz went!  No real structure was planned for this quiz, other than keeping one melody per game for the most part.  There are some notable exclusions on this quiz (Super Star, Epic Yarn, Triple Deluxe) as well as a much greater spinoff representation from last time.  I felt like embracing some more diversity, and I hope everyone that took the quiz enjoyed it!

#1 (7/8)
"Float Islands" – [GB] Kirby's Dream Land

Timestamp: 0:23

Wanted to mix it up a little bit by highlighting how sparse the actual B Section melody of "Float Islands" is.

"Blockworld Map" – [GB] Kirby's Block Ball

Timestamp: 0:00

Thought more might get this outside the hardcore Kirby crowd given the recent 8-Bit Music Theory episode focusing on this game (and this exact melody?), which is also how I even ended up looking at Block Ball options for this quiz lol.  Didn't realize Levi had a sheet onsite of this one

Big Forest is my favorite level theme from Dream Land 2, it fits in well with the animal buddies themes!  However, this B section might not come to mind, as it is similar sounding to a lot of other Kirby melody B sections.

"Miracle Matter" – [N64] Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards

Timestamp: 1:10

One thing you must know is my appreciation for Kirby is heavily tied to Crystal Shards.  Growing up I really only played Air Ride, RtDL and this from the series, but it wasn't until I listened to Shards' OST through GilvaSunner when studying in college that I really embraced the series' music.  Anyway, this is a cool section of a cool boss theme.

also kinda put this in because my 8th grade spanish teacher was obsessed with enrique iglesias so a bunch of us listened to him too

Here's an April Fool's Kirby Guess-The-Song Quiz!
[PDF] | [MP3] | [MUS] | [MSCZ]

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MP3, and PDF shouldn't.

I'll be accepting answers for this quiz as PMs for at least a week, so expect answers on Friday, April 8, 2022 or later. I don't have any Discord accounts, though, so I can't be reached through Discord. Please PM me answers on the NinSheetMusic forums instead!

I may as well not be completely mean this April Fool's, so here are some hints:
  • Yes, all 10 melodies in this quiz are from Kirby games.
  • Melodies may not have been transcribed completely accurately. If you think I'm off, just guess the closest you can find anyway.
  • There is exactly one melody from Kirby and the Forgotten Land in this quiz. None of the other melodies are from that newest Kirby game.
  • No Kirby game has more than two melodies in this quiz.
  • I PM hints! If you can't quite figure out the song but you can at least describe where you think you're getting warmer, I'll PM back about whether you're on the right track.
  • The more obscure the song, the more generous the hints get.

Quote from: Dekkadeci on March 31, 2022, 09:15:26 PMHere's an April Fool's Kirby Guess-The-Song Quiz!
[PDF] | [MP3] | [MUS] | [MSCZ]

Yeah, my April Fool's Kirby Guess-The-Song Quiz was meant to be an unfair April Fool's quiz - all but one of the themes I picked are remixes of other, more well-known Kirby themes, and the only non-remix is the theme from Kirby and the Forgotten Land, a game released a mere week before this quiz was released. Even nastier, I arranged the excerpts in rough order from hardest to easiest, with the excerpts that don't sound like remixes of other Kirby themes being first.

While I accepted only the themes in this answer set as fully correct (I gave hints if you were in the ballpark, though), after seeing you competitors' performance, I decided to give you half points if you got at least one other theme of what each theme remixed correct. I couldn't give you half points for the Kirby and the Forgotten Land theme because it has no remixes...yet.

With that out of the way, let's get to the answers!

#1
The King D-Mind Fight 1 theme from Super Kirby Clash
Timestamp: 0:00

Yeah, it's annoying how entire Kirby games get no official song names nowadays.

This theme actually uses and modifies the audio of the Giant Masked Dedede final boss theme of Kirby Blowout Blast for nearly all of it. ...All except these 4 opening measures (and possibly other electric guitar-heavy measures), that is.

If you think the soundtrack of Super Kirby Clash got pretty metal at times, including for this theme, it's for good reason.

0 out of 4 people got this correct, and 0 out of 4 people got this partially correct.

"異空をかけた戦い"/"'Battle in Another World'"/"'Battle Under Another Sky'"/"'Another World to Win'", from Kirby Star Allies, used as the regular Parallel Boss theme
Timestamp: 1:23

The Parallel Dedede/Parallel Meta Knight shared boss theme also counted as a correct answer.

I purposefully picked the last 2 measures of the loop because only the Parallel Boss versions of Kirby Star Allies's regular boss theme has them.

Turns out that Yuuta Ogasawara seems fond of loop-ending passages like this one...

#3
"VS. Dangerous Beast", from Kirby and the Forgotten Land, used as the regular boss theme
Timestamp: 0:10

Picking a theme from the newest game in the Kirby series, released a mere week before April Fool's and before this quiz was released, seemed like a fairly good April Fool's joke.

I decided to give you a sporting chance and pick a theme you could actually hear in the game's demo. ...And some of the game's trailers. Oh, and I did confess that there is exactly one theme from Kirby and the Forgotten Land in this quiz.

Funnily enough, the official (Japanese) Kirby Twitter channel already revealed the name of this theme...its Japanese name, at the very least...before the game was released.

I picked this exact version of the Team Kirby Clash Deluxe town theme because it also appears in Kirby Star Allies and it's in a different key from the others.

I initially wanted to pick an excerpt much closer to the beginning of the theme, but then Kricketune54 picked the beginning of one of the other town themes from this game for his latest Kirby quiz, so I had to pick a later excerpt. I'm personally surprised that Kricketune54 didn't recognize this melody.

Note the town themes' great similarity to the Ordeal Boss themes of this game.

The Aeon Hero (Light/Dark) final boss theme from Super Kirby Clash
Timestamp: 0:22

The grace note areas were probably not transcribed completely accurately.

I purposefully picked an excerpt that straddles the inner repeat that no other in-game remix of Galacta Knight's theme has. ...Turns out that it's not quite an inner repeat after all, with the instrumentation and maybe some of the shorter notes and accompaniment changed the second time around.

Ah, listening to this theme for the first time, labelled "Galactic B", and correctly guessing with one guess which boss's theme it would be a remix of purely from the title and the game it was from...what the heck did they call Galacta Knight all game, though?!? That and the "Galactic B" (and "Galactic A") labels promptly disappeared without a trace from YouTube and search engines the moment the final boss name was put on the videos...at least the boss theme label "Hakua" from the same game didn't disappear so thoroughly. I am stuck assuming all 3 labels are derived from ripped file names because they sure aren't treated as official...

"Drawcia Demo", from Kirby and the Canvas Curse, used as an introductory theme for the final boss
Timestamp: 0:00

I opted to not put in any of those additional synth notes the last measure of my excerpt actually had in the original. Also, the ritardando was probably not transcribed completely accurately. Speaking of that, I think this is the first time we've transcribed a ritardando in a Guess-The-Song Quiz! In the meantime, I wish I could use an ornament (probably a mordent) instead of the grace notes I had to use, but none of the ornaments I could find in Musescore matched.

Turns out that all of Drawcia's themes in Kirby and the Canvas Curse start with similar material. ...But never the same material, even if you transpose them all to the same key!

"Arm Yourself - You'll Need It!", from Kirby Super Star Ultra, used as the True Arena intro and ability select theme
Timestamp: 0:27

The title used in this answer is probably unofficial - shucks!

This theme uses enough material from both the Arena intro theme and the main battle theme of the Arena (both from Kirby Super Star) that I figured enough of you would recognize this excerpt as a blatant remix of earlier Kirby music.

"三叉一閃の巫の熱情"/"'Passion of the Tridental-Flashing Priestesses'"/"'Passion of the Tridental Mages'", from Kirby Star Allies, used as the Three Mage-Sisters' collective boss theme
Timestamp: 1:47

I purposefully picked an excerpt that straddles both Friend Train/Circle/Star theme material and Song of Supplication material. I'll probably stick an excerpt of the Song of Supplication or a full version thereof in a future Guess-The-Song Quiz because I suspect it's the easiest boss theme to recognize from that game (after you all thoroughly failed to recognize the possibly more popular Hyness Phase 2 boss theme the first time I put it in a quiz).

"Taranza, the Master of Puppetry", from Kirby Triple Deluxe, used as a cutscene theme
Timestamp: 0:03

This is one of the only themes in this quiz with in-game remixes in Kirby games published after the game this theme is from. In that case, the in-game remix is the Dark Taranza boss theme from Team Kirby Clash Deluxe. Pretty ironic, considering that this theme is already a remix (of King Dedede's theme). Yeah, Taranza got the King good that time.

"VS. Star Dream", from Kirby: Planet Robobot, used as a final boss theme
Timestamp: 2:37

Yeah, we've used this theme before in an April Fool's Guess-The-Song Quiz, and I think even this excerpt overlaps that previous excerpt. Bah - this was meant to be one of the most obvious tells in the entire quiz that I'm looking for exact remixes this round. ...And, as a prank, I put it dead last.

I purposefully picked an excerpt that straddles both Kirby's Triumphant Return material and Green Greens material.

I'm surprised the creator of that older April Fool's Guess-The-Song Quiz didn't get this correct.

"Fight the Knight" – Sonic and the Black Knight

Timestamp: 0:11

I'm surprised we've never used this theme in a Guess-That-Song Quiz before. ...Or transcribed it for solo piano. Guess I better get going on that. Time to tank lyrics.

There are actually slight melody note differences between the vocal and instrumental ("strings") versions - I decided to base this quiz entry on the notes of the vocal version, with some debts to the instrumental version's note lengths.

On the other hand, maybe I shouldn't be so surprised that we've never used this theme in a Guess-That-Song Quiz before or transcribed it for solo piano - nobody got this correct. I'm still a bit shocked - I thought Sonic music was more famous than this....

"Song of Supplication" – Kirby Star Allies

Timestamp: 0:13

Due to nearly every theme in Kirby Star Allies having only a Japanese official name (this is a rare exception), "Prayer Song to God" (the leading English translation of the Japanese name) was also accepted as a correct name.

One main-series Kirby game later, I'm surprised we never put this in a Guess-That-Song Quiz before. And we should have - it's one of the only recurring themes in Kirby Star Allies!

I had to mark anyone who guessed any of the final boss themes of Kirby Star Allies (whether by the boss's name(s) or as "Star-Conquering Traveler") as incorrect because none of those themes have this precise melody - not even any version transposed into the final boss themes' home key of C minor. I did give these people hints that they were close, though.

"So Close So Far (Mega Boss Battle)" – Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon

Timestamp: 0:50

FYI, this is the true ending route's final boss theme.

Shovel Knight music was popular enough back in the day - you guys got music from that series correct often enough for the most part. I guess Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon music is as cold as ice, though. I hadn't seen it get hyped up right when the game got released - in fact, I only found out the game exists months later when wanting to check out Jake Kaufman's Bandcamp page again. No wonder nobody got this melody correct. ...Even though I picked the phrase from this boss theme that most reminds me of earlier Shovel Knight music.

"The Azure Arbitrator" – The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure

Timestamp: 1:09

The The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure - Evolution version also counted as a correct answer.

This final boss theme is incredibly long - over 7 minutes long before it loops! Luckily for the listener, it's actually quite richly structured, with a substantial portion of the theme returning in an abridged form, key changes and all, partway through the theme.

...Yeah, I picked this theme for this quiz because it got (admittedly rigged) voted into first place in GaMetal ballots (and the riggers were right: I found that I actually like this theme), so I figured this had to be one of the more popular Trails battle themes. ...Not popular enough, I guess: nobody got this correct.

"The One They Call The Witch" – Octopath Traveler

Timestamp: 0:50

"Daughter of the Dark God" also counted as a correct answer. Somehow, YouTube videos of that song that aren't extended are a lot harder to find right now.

Both of these are final boss themes, yet again - I swear this is coincidence!

I'm not sure whether "The One They Call The Witch" or "Daughter of the Dark God" is the more famous boss theme (maybe "Daughter of the Dark God" has a slight edge?), and I didn't feel like nailing guessers on technicalities this time, so I picked a melody that both themes share in the same key.

Here it is, the song that can't be "ruined". Rearrange the beats, pitch it higher or lower, doesn't matter, it will remain perfect. Truly Toby Fox is the greatest composer of the century, outshining Shostakovich, Gershwin, even Schoenberg; nothing will ever rival his genius.

Did it feel good to win a quiz for once? Don't say I never did anything for you.

"Pallet Town" – Pokémon Red & Blue Versions

Timestamp: 0:23

A classic. I figured this would be recognizable but maybe not immediately obvious to every Pokémon fan; after all, it's a track I haven't thought about in a long time...

"Athletic" – Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

Timestamp: 0:33

Fun fact: The track is in swing, but this particular melody has straight eighths. Because of that, I expected this transcription to trip some people up, but evidently not.

"Still Alive" – Portal

Timestamp: 0:46

One of those songs that would be extremely obvious among VGM fans anywhere other than NinSheetMusic, I think. Also funny that this melody comes right after the part Latios used in his quiz...

"My Castle Town" – Deltarune

Timestamp: 1:44

Oops, I definitely underestimated the difficulty of this one. This is one of my favorite tracks from Deltarune and one that everyone who's played Chapter 2 has probably listened to for a decent amount of time, but maybe picking a melody from the end of the loop wasn't the best move...

"Dire Dire Docks" – Super Mario 64

Timestamp: 1:37

I wasn't sure about this one, it's sort of a countermelody but it's also the most prominent line at this point in the song. Looks like it ended up being pretty difficult to guess.
