This article is about the live orchestral medley. For other uses, see Brinstar Depths (Disambiguation).
"Brinstar" is the area in which Samus first sets down in the Famicom version of Metroid. The Space Pirates of Planet Zebes wriggle and dash about inside, and if you take the eerie elevator down, you will arrive at Brinstar Depths, a world drooping with cells... The connection between these hit songs was impressive. With this version, I put in a chittering sound like an arthropod at the song's midpoint for the song of the elevator area. I want to say you won't hear much, but it adds to the performance.

Depth of Brinstar is an orchestrated version of the Brinstar and Brinstar Depths themes from Super Smash Bros. Melee.
