Dummy!
Futile. Futile! FUTILE!
Dummy! is the 36th track in the UNDERTALE Soundtrack. It plays during the battle against Mad Dummy. It is a much quicker, repetitive, and more energetic version of Ghost Fight, and also features a B (1:16-1:47) and C section (2:10-2:25).
- The repetitions in the melody match Mad Dummy's habit of repeating things when they speak.
- This is one of many pieces of music in Undertale to borrow from the MOTHER 2 / EarthBound soundfont. In this case, the instrumentation of the main melody uses the voice of Venus during her performance at the Topolla Theater.[1]
- The backing of Dummy! starting from 0:08 sounds similar to the backing of the Homestuck song Black, also composed by Toby, starting at 1:41.
- The coda of Dummy! is quoted in BIG SHOT from Deltarune.
- The bassline of the song is similar to the bassline of another Toby Fox track, Noisemaker's Theme, which also influenced It's Showtime!.
