Since I was a bad boy yesterday and forgot about my daily music thing I’m going to post two of them today. And you [waves index finger in the air blindly] can’t stop me!

Daily VGM (for real this time!) #2: Cool area themes, I don’t know

Do I seriously have to describe why Sky Station Galaxy qualifies as a “cool area theme”? I just won’t. Figure it out by yourself.

This theme is my favorite of Undertale’s area themes. The icing on the cake is that it continues to play during monster encounters oh my god 

Small but awesome details aside, this theme nails the “final area, you can do it!” vibe more than A New Home or True Lab, even if they are the final areas of the routes of the game.

My favorite area in the game, and matches the “COOL area theme” (haha) even if that “snow” is actually the ashen remains of a long-dead ancestor. The music is so calm, befitting a calm stroll through the area once all those damned Great Hoppers and Primal Aspids are dead.

This isn’t even the game’s final form! Well, It’s the 4th level before the final boss, but whatever. Hearing this blare while you dodge almost screen-size asteroids to get to the next part of the level is quite the experience, to say the very least. The string and brass in this one are some of the most on-point I’ve seen in a Kirby game.

Contrary to the name, this is no boss fight. It’s the final area theme, and one of the most climactic ones at that. At this point in the game, it feels like you, the player, are the most powerful being on this shimmering battlefield, and this music is what the cannon fodder spirits before the final showdown hear.

If you listen to all of these, then you get an internet bag of 1-up mushrooms.
