Yeah that was delightful! Like an old timey jam on the porch. O Cuccos, Where Art Thou?

Alright yall it's Kokiri time. Starts out with Fairy Flying but I also divided them into two tracks in case anyone like, hates one of the tunes or something.

12/9/11 - i don't wanna grow up (Fairy Flying ( source) and Kokiri Forest (source) OR as two seperate tracks Part 1 and Part 2

I'm pretty happy with this except I think it might need some serious EQ hatcheting which I am just not in the mood to do. Thoughts?

This is very, very awesome. The light arrangement style is so fitting to this track. Seriously, I don't have complaints about this, at all.

Definitely, just want to let them gestate for a while before they possibly get accepted and become etched in stone. It's sad that OCR WIPs is like, the only low pressure place to put this kinda thing now and get decent feedback. RIP VGmix

Haha I tried many times over the years and eventually realized the problem was that the whole thing I was going for was very insincere (if that makes sense) and just incompatible with the zelda musical style in my mind, which is often noticeably unpretentious and very rarely "epic." Basically I felt like it was my high school self trying to use zelda music to show how clever I was (and in the process ruining the things that make zelda tunes great) instead of doing out of appreciation for the music and respect for koji kondo. I'm glad you liked prelude though, that was an important piece for me at the time. I might gather up all my attempts and put them in this thread with some commentary as a kind of bonus feature.

tomorrow: either a house/shop combo ooorrr "inside the deku tree"

These are amazing! I really love both the Shop and House themes, they're actually my two favorite OoT songs- can't wait to hear!

Unfortunately for shop fans, today we're going inside the Deku Tree:

12/12/11 - The Well Tuned Deku (Inside the Deku Tree (source))

This one might seem kind of bland at first glance, but there's more going on than meets the eye. Lots of subtle tuning things - everything is based on the overtone series with B as the root, meaning lots of microtuning, and when the big chord finally comes in we have all kinds of near quarter-tones and other crazy shit.
