let's use this format for all interesting alternate translations
nice rewriting, however all R1 world articles follow the same template, notably with a large gallery which I believe is very informative, that's why any changes to this template should be thoroughly discussed first

'''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.

Sights such as giant [[drum]]s, flutes 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 [[cymbal]]s. 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 [[rocket-maraca]]s to fly, [[bongo]]s to cross chasms, and [[walking drum]]s to reach inaccessible heights.
