This is probably my favorite track from the game. It's the kind of music you hear when you're not quite at the climax, but you're building to it. It's so epic.
Man, this track truly does feel like a spiritual successor to Studying The Factory, doesn't it? I know I'm not the first to make this comparison, but there's a bunch of other Kirby 64 parallels to be found throughout Forgotten Land, sooooo...
Friendship with Studying the Factory isn’t over but Burning Churning Power Plant is my new best friend. I especially love the piano here at 2:16 . It sounds so sinister
This song is so damn good, hearing it the first time with my brother was so gratifying. Seeing Kirby and Bandana Dee running along to the music felt so good, it gave me a sense of uncertainty, urgency and determination which really hit for me. ^-^
When I saw a factory level I was really hoping to see Factory Inspection in 3D, with a possible encounter with HR-H, but honestly I love this even more.
Freaking love everything about this track. It's the perfect balance of menacing, melodic, energetic... it's breathtaking on first listen, and perfectly fits the mood of a main character blitzing through a dangerous industrial area to save their friends. The percussion in the background also heavily reminds me of Nether Animal from Unreal Tournament, which is a comparison I'd NEVER have thought I'd make with a Kirby game of all things.
Love this description, this song definitely gives me the feeling of Kirby burning down everything in his way lonely, angry, and determined to save his friend! The harshness of the opening section with the melancholic melody of the latter makes it feel really emotional to me.

Interesting enough the chords making the buzzing sound is exactly how a powerline on fire would sound too. So props to the band understanding what a "burning, churring power plant" sound actually sound like.
@@TheLegitAlpha yeah I get that vibe from it too... I mean the boss level is on a volcano and there are no electrical powers in the game. but I mean the title and the sound kind of had me thinking of the actual noise that power lines do when they are actually on fire is all I was mentioning.
Agreed with the other comments that said this is the successor of Factory Inspection. Really cool dystopian and giving hope tunes. But at 1:35, the melodies seem to be having a strong resemblance with the last part of Echo's Edge (around minutes 1:00 at Echo's Edge). I just realized when I accidentally hummed both. Edit: Also in 0:49 have really similar melodies to Robobot: Loud Locomotive, the time stamp is also at 0:49 in the both songs. I love that this Forgotten Land has so many OSTs, not just remixes. This game is my top tier of Kirby OST resources along with Rainbow Curse and Star Allies.
I finally figured out what 0:49 sounds like to me. It's highly reminiscent of the last part of Sand Canyon 3 from KDL3, which is a pretty bizarre thing to reference, so I have to wonder if it was really intentional or not. Some people are saying they hear bits of Factory Inspection or Snowball Scuffle in here. I don't hear it (yet), but I do hear Sand Canyon 3. Do with that what you will.
0:50 I LOVE the callback in this song to Royal Road from Kirby Triple Deluxe! That’s a nice touch, it was my very first Kirby game, that takes me back!
@@professornova1236 I don't hear the resemblance. regardless, it's definitely a coincidence. this game did very few remixes, so it's unlikely that this theme for a powerplant in a fire world would suddenly include a remix of a snow level. it sounds more like sand canyon 3 to me. but even then, there's differences, so that's probably not intentional either.
it sounds a lot like sand canyon 3, especially robobot's version. that said, though it sounds similar, there are still notable differences, so it's probably not intentional.
Just finished the game few days ago. This is the most badass song I have heard in this fucking franchise. And considering this series had loads upon loads of bangers, that's saying a lot.
The composers of Kirby music really love leitmotifs. The opening riff in Burning, Churning Power Plant can be heard in the background of Moonstruck Blossom.
After listening to Kirby 64’s studying the power plant, this definitely can’t compare. However, it’s still an amazing song, accompanied by the best ost in Kirby.
I used space ranger almost exclusively for the entirety of the Powerplant and lab a because it fit the aesthetic so well, and this song just proved my point even more
0:49 I swear I’ve heard this in a different game, I know it sounds like house of horrors, but it’s somewhere else as well. Maybe crystal shards, or It might be sand canyon 3, though the part just after is definitely keychain collecting in triple deluxe, which is a remix of something else, I can’t remember
Thought of this song as I was planning to sell my switch and this game after completing it when it launched. Brings back memories from 2 years, thank you Kirby for being with me forever
Something the Kirby 64, robobot and this one does imply is what the hell were the humans doing in the past? It is strongly implied that 64 they had to gtfo, made a super robot and leave earth in nuclear winter, to live in dreamland (Adelaide and Ripple Star's Queen is proof that atleast a part of humanity lives in dreamland and the neighboring planets.) Well i have a theory, a very disturbing one. Humanity once lived originally in the forgotten land, using whatever *god* is elfilis. They managed to trap him and used their powers to advance their civilization and go to better lands (they probably set their sights on dreamland only to settle in shiver star/earth) . Probably in fear of retaliation from the broken god or the animals that started to get sentient. As for what the hell happened to shiver star, robobot may leave a theory. It was probably one of Haltmann's first attempts at robotizing the population and the planet. The humans were tech savvy enough to build off the giant robot to fend off Haltmann and used nukes, which settled the planet in a nuclear winter. Now near inhospitable, they decided to rebuild themselves in other planets, some even decided to finally relax and live together with the god of dreams and stars.
Their are a few. This song has a lot of extra beats mixed in with a few leitmotifs but rearranged. Factory inspection, sand canyon 3 (possibly) and loud locomotive. I find these nice callbacks and fit in perfectly here. Not to be off topic but I think people are just kinda talking about the stuff they’ve found in the song. It’s interesting to here what the song sounds like to other people
@@kirbzanimations At like 1:40 they use the motif of inspection. Similar techniques like this are used across the OST. I think the goal is to fit with the game's theme of this being a new, yet familiar world. Which is also why the motifs are often incredibly subtle.
When the game that is about wild animals (this one)make better factory and labotory levels than the game about about futuristic robots (planet robobot)

It's called A M P H I B I A

Fun fact!: Studying the Factory (Factory Inspection) and Burning, Churning Power Plant were composed and arranged by the same man, Jun Ishikawa! :D
nice. 👌
Hundreds of Kirby tracks were made by Ishikawa...
@@GnesThenic clearly the kirby ost is in good hands.
Oh my gosh, that's cool! XD Thanks for the info!
Tell him.
Finally, the spiritual successor to factory inspection
Yo shockhat didn’t expect to see you here

Cool
I was going to like this, but 64 likes feels the most fitting for this comment.
Aww, true! ^^
It's amazing to me that Ishikawa is nearing 60 years old but can still bust out bangers after all these years, never lost the touch.
This is probably my favorite track from the game. It's the kind of music you hear when you're not quite at the climax, but you're building to it. It's so epic.

So far this song and North East Frost Street are my favorites. Treasure Road is also good.
@@superluigi2965 which treasure road theme are you referring to?
@@jclkaytwo Forgo's Treasures
This? In the game with the best ost in the history of video games, this?

This is such a banger. I normally don’t like the more techno tracks but this is so freaking good
love the lava-like creeping dubstep that turns into a sizzling hot drum n bass track.
1:29 this part is so good for absolutely no reason. It almost make me emotional every time.

You know the Kirby song is gonna be a banger if it takes a minute to settle onto the melody.
This is DEFINITELY of my favorite songs from the entire game. Its so beautiful yet menacing at the same time .. Fits very well with the level
Every Kirby game has that one banger techno track that seems kind of out of place, but it also fits somehow.
The buildup! The main feel! This song is just brilliant!!!
0:50 I LOVE the callback in this song to Royal Road from Kirby Triple Deluxe! That’s a nice touch, it was my very first Kirby game, that takes me back!
It sounds SO familiar from past games, especially Robobot or Triple Deluxe

@@Pascll If you listen to it again. Then listen to around the 42 second mark of snowball scuffle, it's there. Just really hard to hear
The start sounds so hostile and against you but then slowly transitions into a lively and hospitable jam
It reminds me, strangely enough, of the Echo's Edge theme from Kirby Star Allies.
I can sort of see what you mean! It's kind of got that same feel as that whistle section from Echo's Edge at around 1:36
Masterpiece, im not biased but holy shit did this take me back. Well done hall.
Just finished the game few days ago. This is the most badass song I have heard in this fucking franchise. And considering this series had loads upon loads of bangers, that's saying a lot.
1:36 it sounds like that one part of factory inspection
This song sounds like so many Kirby songs mixed into one, like I swear I hear snowball scuffle from Return to Dreamland in there
makes me think of a metallic tasting can of food
1:35 is such an excellent climax to the song. It tells you that the path ahead is rough but you are so close to the end.
Me encanta como Kirby pasa de temas lindos como Green Gears o Sky Tower y casi al final te ponen temas como Iceberg, Mountains in an Angry Sky o este.
This is straight up transistor music from 2:06 onwards. Kirby music has so much range
This honestly feels like a total classic, so good when first hearing this on the level.
The composers of Kirby music really love leitmotifs. The opening riff in Burning, Churning Power Plant can be heard in the background of Moonstruck Blossom.
1:36 the best part.
Sounds like ishikawa combined mountains in an angry sky and factory inspection
0:36 that key change is sooooo good
0:50 reminds me of the return to dreamland ost
obligatory kirby factory banger
1:36
My favorite part!
mine too!?!?!?
Every time I hear 0:38, for some reason I expect it to go into the Mario Bros. Underground theme
Silvagunner should do that

0:49 Sand canyon 3
1:36 echo's edge
sounds like it was plucked straight out of the n64/ps1 era of music, the synths sounds & everything else are perfectly 90s
0:37 Gives some extremely heavy Exit (PSP) vibes and I love it.
Ah! Someone else knows that game! Awesome!
0:49 I swear I’ve heard this in a different game, I know it sounds like house of horrors, but it’s somewhere else as well.

Robotot train theme number 2
yes, that's it!

i keep expecting the uni character select screen theme to start but it doesn't and it messes up my brain every time
This stage reminds me of Egg Factory from Sonic Riders.
definitely got the bass.
insaaaane
The same composer as Kirby 64 and they got the Air Rise composer as well.
Ishikawa and Ando never left and at least one of them were in the composition of *every* single kirby game
I think this is a remixed sand canyon 3 stage theme, but played att a different tempo
This is the definite best dramatic music in Kirby history, but I hate the level of
Love how this sounds like the Crystal Shards. Especially the synth at the 1:30 minute mark. It sounds like Dededee’s castle on Pop Star. Ice cold. 🧊
