In ''Super Mario Bros.'', the "Ground Theme" is used as the background music of all levels that take place outdoors, excluding underground, underwater, and [[castle]] levels. This encompasses level themes that would be given separate music in later games, such as athletic and night levels. As the game is for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] and [[Family Computer]], the theme is orchestrated as {{wp|chiptune}}, using two {{wp|pulse wave}} channels for melody and harmony, a triangular wave generator for bass, and a noise channel for percussion. After the introduction, a rhythmic contrast emerges between the tonal parts, which play with straight eighth notes, and the percussion, which plays a {{wp|Swing (jazz performance style)#Swing as a rhythmic style|swing rhythm}}. The theme uses {{wp|mode mixture}}, borrowing the {{wp|A♭ (musical note)|A flat}} and {{wp|B♭ (musical note)|B flat}} chords from the {{wp|C minor}} scale.

Both the "Lost a Life"<ref>''[[Super Mario History 1985-2010]]'' tracklist</ref> and "[[Game Over]]" themes for ''Super Mario Bros.'' are arranged excerpts of the Ground Theme; the former is taken from the last several notes of the theme before it loops, and the latter is taken from the first few notes that follow the theme's opening bar. Kondo's idea behind such tunes was to motivate players to try again, rather than using sounds that would otherwise discourage them.<ref>[http://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/#/wii/super-mario-all-stars/0/2 Iwata Asks : Super Mario All-Stars : Music Follows Function].

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', an arrangement of the Ground Theme plays in [[Subspace]], replacing an original tune in ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]''. The arrangement is noticeably shortened, only including two excerpts from the original piece. This arrangement returns in version 3.0.0 of ''Super Mario Maker 2'', when a [[P Switch]] is activated while the player is in their [[SMB2 Mario|SMB2 form]], which is exclusive to the ''Super Mario Bros.'' style.
In 1986, a very short arrangement of the theme was made for [[Super Mario Bros.

The "Ground Theme"[1] is a recurring musical theme composed by Koji Kondo, first appearing in World 1-1 of Super Mario Bros. Set in the key of C major, the theme uses a periodic structure and calypso rhythms and plays at an andante moderato tempo. The theme has become one of the most recognizable and iconic songs in the Super Mario franchise, as well as the video game industry as a whole, having made numerous appearances in games and media associated with Mario or the franchise itself and been arranged many times by musicians and in symphonic concerts.[2][3] In 2023, it became the first piece of video game audio to be inducted into the National Recording Registry.[4]

Sheet music for the "Ground Theme" was used in the background of Super Mario Orchestra Concert promotional material.

Composition[edit]

The "Ground Theme" is a Latin-styled composition piece with a calypso-like rhythm that Koji Kondo wrote alongside the rest of the music for Super Mario Bros. while watching and playing the game as it was being developed.[5] Kondo has cited works by Japanese fusion band T-Square and musician Sadao Watanabe as influences in the music.[6] The first bar after the introduction to the "Ground Theme" shares a melody with a bar from T-Square's "Sister Marian,"[7] which predates the original release date of Super Mario Bros. by over a year.

Upon seeing the overworld levels in an early prototype of Super Mario Bros., Kondo initially wrote a "laid-back, relaxing" piece that would invoke the feeling of a "carefree walk," but he thought it did not fit the game. Kondo decided instead to create a new piece whose tempo would match the game's speed and the rhythm of Mario's movements, though a triplet rhythm from the original piece was retained in the final composition.[8][9] He continued to scrap versions that did not time up with Mario's actions or harmonize with sound effects. The "Ground Theme" was the second song Kondo created for the game, after the "Underwater Theme,"[10] and took the most time to compose.[11]

In Super Mario Bros., the "Ground Theme" is used as the background music of all levels that take place outdoors, excluding underground, underwater, and castle levels. This encompasses level themes that would be given separate music in later games, such as athletic and night levels. As the game is for the Nintendo Entertainment System and Family Computer, the theme is orchestrated as chiptune, using two pulse wave channels for melody and harmony, a triangular wave generator for bass, and a noise channel for percussion. After the introduction, a rhythmic contrast emerges between the tonal parts, which play with straight eighth notes, and the percussion, which plays a swing rhythm. The theme uses mode mixture, borrowing the A flat and B flat chords from the C minor scale.

Super Mario series[edit]

Super Mario Bros.[edit]

In Super Mario Bros., both "Lost a Life"[1] and "Game Over"[1] are arranged excerpts of the "Ground Theme." The former is taken from the last several notes of the theme before it loops, and the latter is taken from the first few notes that follow its opening bar. Koji Kondo's idea behind these themes was to motivate players to try again, rather than using sounds that would otherwise discourage them.[13][14]

Super Mario All-Stars[edit]

Super Mario All-Stars features a 16-bit arrangement of the "Ground Theme" with some note additions and changes, such as the lack of percussion in the introduction.
