| {{About|the musical theme associated with various powerups and bosses|the ability known as Shooting|[[Starship]]|a similarly named theme associated with the clockwork stars|[[Milky Way Wishes: Shooting]]}}
| |
| '''"Shooting"'''<ref>''[[Kirby Air Ride]]'' [[Jukebox|Sound Test]]</ref> is a musical piece composed by [[Jun Ishikawa]] that first appeared in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''. It originally was associated with the [[Mint Leaf]] and [[Superspicy Curry]] powerups, but has since become a theme associated primarily with [[Kabula]].
| |
|
| |
|
| == Composition ==
| | '''Kabula's Theme''' refers to a musical piece composed by [[Jun Ishikawa]], which has been used in various boss battles with [[Kabula]] since ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''. |
| "Shooting" is a jazzy, mischevious piece in 4/4 F minor. The ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'' incarnation is a short theme like most of the game's music, composed in only ten measures. After a melody is played in two slight variants, a passage like a reversed version of the intro of "[[King Dedede's Theme]]" for three variants itself before giving way to a sassy descent that loops back into the first melody. The bassline usually alternates octaves of the same note or favors fifths, sixths, and sevenths with frequent accidentals.
| |
|
| |
|
| Like some of the other music from ''Kirby's Dream Land'', "Shooting" has had some remarkable additions and revisions made throughout its series appearances. ''[[Kirby Planet Robobot]]'' in particular is notable for adding an entirely new section based lightly on the first. This section is a solo on the guitar, which has persisted in future remixes such as in ''[[Kirby's Blowout Blast]]'' and ''[[Kirby's Dream Buffet]]''. The ''Kirby: Planet Robobot'' version includes a rest portion inspired by the ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'' version of the theme, but most versions simply return to the loop immediately after the solo.
| | This track is titled '''やきいもシューティング''' "Sweet Potato Shooting" (Track 26) in ''The Very Best of Kirby: 52 Hit Tracks'' CD. |

| In ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'', this track is used when Kirby obtains either the [[Superspicy Curry|Spicy Food]] or [[Mint Leaf]] items.

Dedede]]. | | In ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'', this track is not exclusive to [[Kabula]], but used in both of the following scenes: |
