BACKGROUND
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirby_%26_the_Amazing_Mirror
Kirby & the Amazing Mirror was the seventh main-series Kirby game. It was developed by HAL Laboratory and Flagship, and was released for the Nintendo GameBoy Advance on April 15, 2004. It's soundtrack was composed by Hironobu Inagaki and Atsuyoshi Isemura.
There are a number of reasons why I chose this game's soundtrack to focus on for my album. As far as Kirby games go, its probably on the more obscure end. I'd consider it to be a criminally underrated game; it is a great blend of familiar Kirby gameplay with elements of Metroidvania. Its soundtrack does not tend to see a lot of attention in the video game remixing community, which is one of the reasons I chose it for this album.
More importantly, I chose Amazing Mirror because it is significant to me. It was the first Kirby game I ever owned and played until completion, and still stands as a very nostalgic childhood classic for me. Each and every song has left its mark for me, since I listened to the soundtrack a lot when I was younger. I still remember many a long car trip I spent not even playing the game, but simply listening to the soundtrack through my little earphones. Though it does not have the same iconic status as Dreamland, Adventure, or Super Star, its soundtrack has many gems including Rainbow Route and Candy Constellation. Please enjoy my takes on these fantastic songs!

I thought I'd change things up a little bit here, otherwise this song would be very short. I expanded upon the usual "sparkling stars" motif heard at the end of every Kirby level, turning it into a simple ambient tune with a string section and a reference to "Green Greens" on the harp. Then I arranged the Kirby victory dance into a bouncy orchestral fanfare!

Now we get into the interesting songs. Here is the theme of the first level: Rainbow Route, one of my favourites! It has a steady, march-like feel, so I used militaristic snare patterns, bombastic cymbal crashes, and powerful timpani strikes. I really wanted to emphasize the brass as well, so I added a tuba to the bassline, and made sure the trumpet flourishes and harmonies sounded appropriately triumphant.

This is the theme from the beginning tutorial stage. It sort of foreshadows later themes such as Rainbow Route and Moonlight Mansion in terms of its sound. I stuck fairly true to the original, with flutes and strings taking the lead. As you can tell, the bassline plays a prominent role in this soundtrack.

The original song almost sounds like there are voices singing, to me at least. For my interpretation I used a mellotron choir to keep that quirky sound. To add more interest to this rather short and repetitive song, I added a simple string section half way through.

Since the original song was so short, I added a couple variations for it to cycle through.

This is the theme of the Mirror Shrine, the hub world of Kirby & the Amazing Mirror. It was a cloudy land in the sky filled with magical mirrors. I wanted my arrangement to be appropriately mystical. A soft choir creates that heavenly, angelic feeling. A variety of "twinkling" instruments, including the glockenspiel, celesta, and music box, keep the melody feeling light and airy.
