- Notes -
Monstro's themes have pretty short loops which was good for keeping this video length reasonable. There's the field theme "A Very Small Wish". I think KH1 original is still my favourite, I like how it has a marching band sound to it. The others are more toned down.

And then the battle theme "Monstrous Monstro" which is a "To Our Surprise"-esque frantic combat track. I think the 1.5 version did a better job maturing this song than it did with the field theme. And of course there's the slower tempo arrangement by Keji Kawamori, used for the Monster of the Sea Mirage Arena battle, which includes a Monstro boss.

Monstro himself is not a world, rather he comes from Prankster's Paradise, seen as a sleeping world in Dream Drop Distance. Riku's half is spent inside Monstro and it reuses the KH1 themes (unsurprising given the amount of KH1 referencing in that game). Sora journeys through new areas and so there's new themes to fit these. I like them, especially the field theme, but they don't stick with me as much as other DDD songs.
