- Extremely catchy overworld theme, one of the most recognizable early NES melodies. - Bright major-key tonality, bouncy rhythm. - Efficient use of pulse harmony and triangle bass. - Great example of mid-80s Hudson melodic identity. - Channel isolation will reveal how much rhythmic propulsion is carried by pulse channel interplay.
