Comrade K.K.
"Comrade K.K." is a K.K. Slider song that has appeared throughout the Animal Crossing series. The song takes influence from traditional Russian folk music and especially Bard music, a genre that was common among amateur musicians in the former Soviet Union. This is reflected in the song's title, with "comrade" being a common term in communist rhetoric for a close acquaintance, rooted in the Marxist ideal of an entirely communal socioeconomic system. In addition, the song receives influence from a Polish legionary song titled "Ciękie czasy legionera," which is easily seen when the two songs are played on top of each other. The album art also depicts K.K. dressed in a style typical of Russian revolutionaries of the early 20th century. Prince, Marcel, Lucy, Kidd, Ken (all before New Horizons), Curt, Greta, Hamphrey, and Hopper (all in New Horizons) will play this song if they have stereos in their houses.
The song can be obtained by visiting K.K. Slider any Saturday at The Roost between 8 pm and midnight, or by buying it from T.I.Y. or T&T Emporium in Animal Crossing: New Leaf.
On the song's North American e-Reader card artwork, it features Weber, Iggy, Rolf, Lobo and K.K. Slider; they appear to wear buttoned-up ushanka style hats (a hat popularized in the Soviet-era) and performing Russian folk dance.
