==King K. Rool/Ship Deck 2==
===Origin===
===Origin===
The final boss theme heard in ''Donkey Kong Country'', on the 'Gangplank Galleon' level from which this track originally received its name from. In this stage, [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] fought [http://www.donkeykongwiki.com/King_K._Rool King K. Rool]. The ''Brawl'' version starts as a sea shanty melody on accordion, then transitions into a hard rock tune. 'Snakey Chantey' was the name of the music on the 'Rattle Battle' stage of World 3 in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''. The track Snakey Chantey in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' began in the same theme as the ''Donkey Kong Country'' boss music, then looped into a variation of that theme. The same music is also used when battling King K. Rool. The song in Brawl is closer to the ''Donkey Kong Country'' boss music. Also, unlike in both ''Donkey Kong Country'' games, ''Brawl'' loops this music to the beginning.

===Origin===
This track is a remix of "Stickerbush Symphony" from ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''. This played on each of the bramble-based stages in the game, including the first stage it appeared on, [[mariowiki:Bramble Blast (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Bramble Blast]]—which it is named after in this game. This version of this track uses different instruments, such as acoustic guitar, and feels more energetic than it did within ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''.


==Bramble Blast==
===Origin===
This track is a remix of what is known within its own game of debut as 'Stickerbrush Symphony' from ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''. This played on each of the bramble-based stages in the game, including the first stage it appeared on called 'Bramble Blast', the stage the ''Brawl'' track took its name from. The stage had a player moving through the bramble maze, trying not to touch the thorns of the brambles, known officially as stickerbrushes. The Brawl version of this song uses different instruments, such as strings, and feels less stressful like it did within ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' but more joyful.
