'''Band Land''' (French: '''''Le Ciel Chromatique''''' – '''''The Chromatic Sky''''') is the second world in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]]. As its name suggests, it is a world which consists mainly of music and musical instruments.


The first level of Band Land is [[Bongo Hills]], a grassy terrain where vast instruments sprout from the ground. It is followed by [[Allegro Presto]], is a cold, blue, vertiginous labyrinth of slippery musical staves. This is where [[Rayman]] first encounters [[Mr Sax]], the malevolent giant saxophone who rules Band Land; and also where he receives the [[helicopter]] ability from [[Betilla]] the Fairy. The next level is [[Gong Heights]], a balmy region of golden clouds and inhabited by meditating [[monk]]s. The final level is [[Mr Sax's Hullaballoo]], which resembles a combination of the three preceding levels. This is where [[Rayman]] finally confronts and defeats [[Mr Sax]].

'''Band Land''' (French: '''''Le Ciel Chromatique''''' – '''''The Chromatic Sky''''') is the second world in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]]. It is a land made up of music and musical instruments and set high in the sky.


Sights such as giant [[drum]]s, recorders and xylophones are characteristic of Band Land. [[Rayman]] often finds himself battling [[trumpet]]s and [[moth]]s while dodging dangerous [[wrong note]]s, [[spiky ball]]s and [[cymbals]]. The 'ground' usually consists of drum material or slippery musical staves, from which the player must be careful not to fall. As [[Rayman]] progresses, he ascends higher into the sky: the levels feature increasing amounts of [[cloud]]s, snow and lightning. Most of the platforms in Band Land are music-related: [[Rayman]] can use [[maracas rocket]]s to fly, [[bongo]]s to cross chasms, and [[walking drum]]s to reach inaccessible heights.
==Description==
Giant music instruments such as [[drum]]s, flutes and xylophones make up most of Band Land, interspersed with [[wrong note]]s and [[prickly ball]]s. As [[Rayman]] progresses, he ascends higher into the sky: the levels feature increasing amounts of [[cloud]]s, snow and lightning. Up there, it is also possible to slide on musical staves, but he must be careful not to fall from the heights of this place. Most of the platforms in Band Land are music-related: [[Rayman]] can use [[maracas rocket]]s to fly, [[bongo]]s to cross chasms, and [[walking drum]]s to reach inaccessible heights.

In the ''[[Maths and English with Rayman]]'' games, tiny [[wrong note]]s can also be found.


==Image gallery==
The enemies in Band Land include [[antitoon]]s, [[hunter]]s, [[moth]]s, [[trumpet]]s, [[lightning eyes]], [[wrong note]]s, [[cymbals]] and [[mad drummer]]s. The boss is [[Mr Sax]], a giant saxophone. [[Rayman]] will meet him in [[Allegro Presto]], and fight him after a frantic chase in [[Mr Sax's Hullaballoo]].

==In other games==
In 2005, [[Phoenix Studio]] began work on a new 3D [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'']] platform game tentatively titled ''[[Rayman 4 (2005 cancelled prototype)|Rayman 4]]''. The developers intended to feature several environments from [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'']], including Band Land. Several pieces of artwork were produced. However, the game was ultimately cancelled.

''[[Rayman Origins]]'' features adjacent environments based directly on Band Land: [[Desert of Dijiridoos|the Desert of Dijiridoos and the Grumbling Grottos]]. These worlds combine Band Land's musical component with an arid desert landscape. It is not clear if these locations are part of Band Land, near Band Land, or simply different places that look similar to Band Land.
