Planet Zebes - Arrival on Crateria

Planet Zebes - Arrival on Crateria is a music track that originated in Super Metroid. It is heard as Samus lands her Gunship on Crateria during a thunderstorm. The track appropriately includes thunder effects, and continues to play as Samus moves through Crateria and into the ruins of Tourian and the Starting Point in Brinstar. It stops playing outside the Landing Site after Samus emerges from the destroyed Zebesian Command Center and is ambushed by Space Pirates, but continues to play in the landing site until Kraid is destroyed, at which point Crateria Surface begins to play.

The theme is remixed at the end of Metroid: Samus Returns. As Samus is returning to her Gunship on SR388's Surface with the baby, this theme is heard, also during a storm. It is heard again as they leave the planet after defeating Proteus Ridley.

The theme from Super Metroid can be heard here, and the theme from Samus Returns here.
