Dark Samus Appears Part 2



Dark Samus Appears Part 2 (as named internally) is a theme in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, which is actually a medley of several themes. It is only heard in Hive Chamber B when Samus encounters Dark Samus for the first time, and follows her into a Dark Portal. The theme starts with Dark Samus Intro, the ambience that always accompanies Dark Samus prior to an encounter with her. This version features percussion that is not present in the theme when heard later in the game.

Once the Safe Zone protecting Samus fades and the Ing overwhelm her, a portion of the Ing Battle theme plays. After Samus escapes back through the Portal and returns to Hive Chamber B, an eerie theme plays to accompany the loss of several of her power-ups to the Ing. This theme is not heard any other time in the game, unlike the former two. The individual themes, and the medley were composed by Kenji Yamamoto.

The theme can be heard here.
