"Venturing into the Mechanized World"[2] (also parsed "Venturing into the Mechanised World"[3]) is a stage theme from Kirby: Planet Robobot heard primarily in Patched Plains. It was composed by Hirokazu Ando.[1]
Composition[edit]
"Venturing into the Mechanized World" is an upbeat theme in C major and 4/4. As its title implies, it has a mechanical feel due to its abundant use of synthesized sounds. The piece begins with a short intro that starts off immediately from atypical subdominant harmonies. The melody is heavily based on "The Noble Haltmann", only differing in key and ending, as this track's melody ends in a sequence of a descending scale, three subdominant chords, and another scale to dominant. It is at this ending that the key fully establishes itself. The melody repeats and ends in a minor rising passage. The second segment is likewise based on the second part of "The Noble Haltmann", now fittingly minor. It eventually reaches the rising fourth of the initial motif; however, rather than immediately continuing, it moves up in repeated fourths and reaches G major. Following is a transition with notes somewhat reminiscent of "Bright Spinning Planet". This intermission ends on the dominant, and immediately afterwards the initial motif returns as the track loops.
