- Notes -
Both of these tracks are fitting for their respective games. KH1's sinister but simpler "Squirming Evil" used for phase 1 Disney bosses, and KH2's "The Encounter" having a more cinematic feel, for some of the more major Disney fights. Although the names are kinda opposite, The Encounter has got to be one of the simplest names for a boss track ever. Works though.

Squirming Evil has no versions outside the two KH1 tracks so it made sense to bundle it. The Ecnounter has a pretty neat BBS version, which complements the Maleficent fight especially well. I actually think this is my favourite of the 4 versions. This one was also reused in DDD for the Julius secret boss.

KH3 brings both tracks back, but Squirming Evil is just a 1.5 reuse and not even an appropriate one. That big fish is hardly a Disney boss. The Encounter recieves a new variant "-Metal Charge-" and this is for the troll heartless bosses. Again, would have preferred it stayed as a Disney boss theme but it's hardly something to fuss over. Plus it was used against those nobodies in Twilight Town in KH2, but that was also alongside Mickey so eh. Anyway, cool songs.
