"Bonus Room Blitz,"[1] also known as "BONUS LEVEL,"[2] is a recurring theme composed by David Wise that has been used across many games in the Donkey Kong franchise. The composition was first used in Donkey Kong Country as the theme of bonus rooms.
Arrangements

Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!
The title theme for Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!, titled "Dixie Beat," incorporates an arrangement of "Bonus Room Blitz" after the monkey sounds with a beat at the start.

Donkey Kong Country remakes
Both the Game Boy Color version and the Game Boy Advance version of Donkey Kong Country each have their own variation of "Bonus Room Blitz"; the former has a version of the theme that was originally used in Donkey Kong Land.
Donkey Kong Country Returns
Donkey Kong Country Returns and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D use two arrangements of this theme in bonus rooms.
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
When a level is cleared in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and its Nintendo Switch reissue, the fanfare that starts playing is an arrangement of this theme.
Donkey Kong Land series
Donkey Kong Land
A chiptune arrangement of "Bonus Room Blitz" appears as the theme for the map screen and bonus rooms in Donkey Kong Land.
Donkey Kong Land III
An arrangement of "Bonus Room Blitz" is used on the title screen of Donkey Kong Land III, similarly to Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!

Mario vs. Donkey Kong series
Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge
Two arrangements of "Bonus Room Blitz" are heard throughout Mine Cart Cove of Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge.
Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle
In the Donkey Kong Adventure DLC campaign for Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, an arrangement for "Bonus Room Blitz" called "Jungle Jabber," plays during timed bonus room challenges, which often involve pressing switches and pushing barrels in Mine Carts to reach the end and get a Weapon from a treasure chest. These bonus rooms are accessed by entering a golden Barrel Cannon, which in turn can be accessed after a specific gate puzzle is cleared for a second time in the overworld map, at the end of each world (except for the Dungeon); clearing it the first time unlocks the gate to the next world.
After the music gate puzzle was cleared for the second time in the Reef, the organ pipes would also play "Bonus Room Blitz" in Rabbid noises. When the puzzle was cleared the first time, the organ would previously play "Opening" from Donkey Kong.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate features a new arrangement for The Map Page / Bonus Level, a medley of "Simian Segue" and "Bonus Room Blitz" that uses the respective tracks' Japanese names. The "Bonus Room Blitz" portion specifically has also been used for Diddy Kong's fighter showcase video on the official website. A medley of these two themes' original versions had previously been used under the same name in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, which also returns in this game.
Conker's Pocket Tales
"Bonus Room Blitz," based on the title theme of Donkey Kong Land III, can be heard during Conker's idle animation while playing his Game Boy in Conker's Pocket Tales.
