A boss battle theme often used for bosses found aboveground. This song is actually a drumline; it makes use of various percussion instruments from a marching band, and it is organized precisely like one, with chromatic instruments being totally absent in the main mix. When the boss is defeated, a "boss defeated" cue plays.
A boss battle theme often used for bosses found aboveground. This song is organized as a drumline cadence, with the base theme being played exclusively on percussion instruments found in a marching band. When the boss is defeated, a "boss defeated" cue plays.


Each type of boss will also add its own instrument to the music that is characteristic of the creature. The [[Porquillion]], for example, adds a {{w|thumb piano}} to the music.
For every type of boss, a unique layer of pitched instruments that is characteristic of the creature will be added to the music:
