Game appearances[edit]

Kirby: Triple Deluxe[edit]

"Spring Smash Factory" makes its debut in Kirby: Triple Deluxe where it plays in Lollipop Land - Stage 3. The song appears as track 23 in the game's Jukebox and track 16 on the Kirby: Triple Deluxe Soundtrack CD.

"Spring Smash Factory" was one of the first themes composed for Kirby: Triple Deluxe, so other tracks that use its motif ultimately derive from it.[1] Sections of "Spring Smash Factory" appear in the following tracks:

  • "Sun, Sky, Dreamstalk" — the title theme and a shortened version of "One of the Miracles", track 1. A C major arrangement of "Spring Smash Factory" with an intro based on its second section.
  • "Waking to a Flowery Coup!" — the opening cutscene theme, track 2. The first few sections are based primarily on "Floral Fields" and "Spring Smash Factory" up until the introduction of "Taranza, the Master of Puppetry".
  • "Under the Sunshine" — cutscene theme for unlocking a new level, known in the Theater as "Under the sunshine" cutscenes, track 19. A partial arrangement of "Spring Smash Factory", which extends the fourth note and varies the rest of the first phrase while keeping the second phrase.
  • "Majestic Flora" — theme for the cutscene "Under the sunshine: scene 5" and track 89, an extended A major variant of "Under the Sunshine".
  • "Revenge of the Enemy" — Boss battle music for "revenge" bosses in Royal Road - Stage 2 and Royal Road - Stage 4, Masked Dedede, and Dark Meta Knight's Revenge's first phase, track 96. An extended C minor arrangement of "Spring Smash Factory" with elements of "Green Greens".
  • "She Who Holds the Stars" — theme for the cutscene with the same name and track 101, features a "Spring Smash Factory" similar to that of "Fatal Blooms in Moonlight" (described below), as well as "Green Greens" integrated at the end of the first phrase.
  • "Fatal Blooms in Moonlight" — Boss battle music for Flowered Sectonia and Soul of Sectonia (first phase), track 102. Features a variation with falling tendencies, similarly to "Under the Sunshine", and later varies the rhythm.
  • "FLOWERED" — the ending cutscene theme and track 106. Various sections of "Spring Smash Factory" are mashed together with "Green Greens" and "Floral Fields", and the variants from "She Who Holds the Stars" and "Fatal Blooms in Moonlight" return in their respective sections.
  • "One of the Miracles" — staff credits theme and track 107. The extended version of "Sun, Sky, Dreamstalk" which further develops upon both phrases of "Spring Smash Factory", as well as "She Who Holds the Stars" and "Fatal Blooms in Moonlight".

Additionally, the following tracks include short fragments of "Spring Smash Factory":

  1. "At the start of the project, one of the tunes that we had already composed had a characteristic rising and falling melody, and I realised that it fitted perfectly with the image of the giant Dreamstalk rising high into the sky. So, we decided to create other tracks based on this melody [...] and thus hit upon a characteristic "Triple Deluxe sound". [...] So what was this initial tune, which ended up being the basis for most of the music in the game? It was actually "Spring Smash Factory" (track no. 23 in the Sound Test)." –Hirokazu Ando (Miiverse)
