"Shooting"[1] is a musical piece composed by Jun Ishikawa that first appeared in Kirby's Dream Land. It originally was associated with the Mint Leaf (Sweet Potato in Japan) and Superspicy Curry powerups, but has since become a theme associated primarily with Kabula.
Game appearances
Kirby's Dream Land
In Kirby's Dream Land, this track is used when Kirby obtains either the Spicy Food or Mint Leaf items. Since Kirby must take the Mint Leaf to fight Kaboola in this game, the track also plays during her boss battle.
This track can be found as Music 9 in the Kirby's Dream Land Sound Test.
In the boss rematch on Mt. Dedede, all boss battles play the respective stage theme instead of the boss battle theme or this power-up track, in Kaboola's case.
Kirby Air Ride
- Main article: Metal (course)
In Kirby Air Ride, the theme is remixed, titled "Kirby: Shooting" in the Sound Test, to serve as the alternative music for the course Metal in Top Ride Course, unlocked by taking 1st place in Metal without using Boost.
Kirby Super Star Ultra
In Kirby Super Star Ultra, the new mode Revenge of the King is a spiritual remake of the Extra Mode from Kirby's Dream Land.
Although Kabula doesn't appear in the original Spring Breeze from Kirby Super Star, she returns as a Boss in Mt. Dedede Sky during Revenge of the King. This time, Kirby fights her with the Starship along with a new remix of "Shooting".
This remix features a heavy metal style in a fast tempo. This version is titled 飛行砲台カブーラー ("Flying Fortress Kabula") on Kirby Ultra Super Deluxe Original Sound Track, and can be found as Track 86 in Super Star Ultra's Sound Test. It was remixed by the original composer, Jun Ishikawa.[2]
Kabula can be fought again in The True Arena just like other bosses from Revenge of the King, using the same remix of this game.
Kirby's (Extra) Epic Yarn
In Kirby's Epic Yarn and Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn, the "Shooting" remix from Kirby Air Ride is repurposed to serve as the theme of Tankbot. This version, simply titled "Tankbot", can be found as Track 37 in Kirby's Epic Yarn's Tunes.
Kirby: Planet Robobot
In Kirby: Planet Robobot, Kabula makes a surprise appearance from the debris of C.O.G.S. in Gigabyte Grounds, now rebuilt as Core Kabula, and challenges a boss battle to Kirby in Robobot Armor Jet Mode with an arrangement of "Shooting" playing in the background.
The theme is now remixed with an electronic flair, the tune and the tempo more resembling the original version from Kirby's Dream Land. In addition, a second section is added to the theme, featuring an electric guitar solo.
This version is arranged by Hirokazu Ando and titled "Core Kabula Surprise!" in English and まさかのコア・カブーラー ("Surprising Core Kabula") in Japanese. It can be found as Track 35 in Planet Robobot's Jukebox.
Core Kabula can be fought again in The True Arena, using the same theme.
Kirby's Blowout Blast
In Kirby's Blowout Blast, although neither Kabula nor any power-up item appears, the theme is remixed into a new electronic version to serve as the stage music for Level 5 (EX), including the second section from "Core Kabula Surprise!" with brass instrumentation.
Kirby Star Allies
In Kirby Star Allies, the original version from Kirby's Dream Land is reused in the stage Extra Eclair.
Kirby's Dream Buffet
In Kirby's Dream Buffet, a fast-paced remix of the theme is present during the final moments of Battle Royale. The second section from "Core Kabula Surprise!" serves as an extension if the battle enters overtime.
The Kirby Super Star Ultra version of the theme is available to play in races upon unlocking it at Gourmet Rank 56.
Other appearances
"Shooting" is featured in the last segment of Track 1: Big Band Kirby of the Kirby Memorial Arrangements. Here, the theme is arranged in a salsa style with a piano-based rhythm. This arrangement was done by Megumi Ohara.
