In contrast to the more environmental tracks from the [[Donkey Kong Country (series)|''Donkey Kong Country'' series]], "Mine Menace" is a loud, bombastic tune with heavy usage of brass instruments, fit for an action-focused scenario | "'''Mine Menace'''" is a theme composed for ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]''.

In ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'', "Mine Menace" plays in [[Peaceful Pier]] and [[Crowded Cavern]] when [[Donkey Kong]] activates the Rocket Barrel. It and its arrangements are commonly played in levels where the Rocket Barrel flies forwards, whereas a different theme, albeit with similar instrumentation, plays in levels where the Rocket Barrel flies upwards (with [[Mole Patrol]] being the outlier). | In ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'', "Mine Menace" plays in [[Peaceful Pier]] and [[Crowded Cavern]] when [[Donkey Kong]] activates the Rocket Barrel.

A shorter version of "Mine Menace" is played in [[Gear Getaway]]. This is also the version that is released on ''[[Donkey Kong Returns Original Sound Track]]'', which was only available as a reward on the Japanese [[Club Nintendo (rewards program)|Club Nintendo]]. On the soundtrack, this track takes the Japanese name of Gear Getaway, which translates to "'''Thrill! Gear Ride'''." | |||
The level [[Hot Rocket]] also makes use of a unique variation of "Mine Menace," in which the instrumentation of the [[Volcano]] level themes (e.g. low chants) join in. | |||
