Kirby soundtracks are like
The majority of the Kirby soundtracks are composed by the same pair - Jun Ishikawa and Hirokazu Ando. I don't know their actual relationship, but I like to believe it's a constant battle between a guy who's writing game music for a cuddly pink blob, and a guy who has really strong opinions on the 80s prog metal scene.
Kirby 64's soundtrack really shaped my standards and tastes for video game music. Its a game soundtrack I often end up daydreaming about and going back to. Sometimes I replay an emulation of it just to explore the music again.
I could imagine Jun and Hirokazu having a lot of polite arguments about "Direction with the current game's sound track" over coffee
64's soundtrack is great! It's classic Kirby - synth pop at the start, darker elements and jazz further along, but a cohesive sound overall.
Kirby is also a game series that always stays cute for a majority of the game and slides off the deep end into eldritch horror down the line. Its themes are always basically Dreams and Nightmares
seeing the title for two planets approach the roche limit in the jukebox just made me So happy. What a Good Name
