Darth Ales Posted November 24, 2005 Posted November 24, 2005 Loved it but is it just me or does it just stop all of a sudden? Could be my computer.... like the techno remix here too haha made me laugh. It would be awesome to hear a remix of the battle against Ganondorf (not puppet Ganon) or the final battle in Zelda 64 *drools* Quote
Lockblade Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 Whoa... I love how it builds in the beginning. 30 seconds into the song, I decided I loved it. Great work! PS: Somehow reminds me of Pirates of the Caribbean... Quote
triumvir Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 No words can truly describe the grandeur that is this song - it touches parts of my soul long-dormant. The artist is to be commended for his/her ingenuity! This receives an 11/10 in my book - I listen to it at least two or three times a day. Great job, and keep 'em coming! I agree with everyone about Wind Waker - I was rigidly opposed to the game because the cell-shading made it look cartoony and stupid. I was outraged at Nintendo for ruining my favorite gaming series. Then, I broke down and got it, and loved every minute of it! Epic, lengthy, and full of memories that will last a lifetime! Great game! Quote
CE Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 Man, this song absolutly rules. It really evokes the feeling of uncovering a new Zelda game, which was present in the Wind Waker intro. Very nice, and overall, lives up to it's original. Darkesword, its' da shizzle! Quote
Fr0zEnPh0eNiX Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 Wow.. just wow.. I actually came out of dormancy to come comment on this song. I haven't posted in this place for years but this song is just so good that I can't help but comment on it. It is moving, it truly is. I actually downloaded it a while back, and today was searching through some of the fine songs here at OCR when I noticed it sounded .. painlessly familiar. Yes, it does fill the listener with emotion and I (some noob) am here to verify that. I am one of those people who believe Windwaker was one of the most underrated Zelda games (Just next to Majora's Mask). Once you get past the cell shading, the music is great, and the game is overall great. In all honestly this song doesn't much remind me of it, in fact it has it's own personal relevance. Very well done.. 10/10 easily. I would say 50/10, but the scale doesn't go that high =P. Quote
atmuh Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 Completely awesome. It perfectly captures the mood of beginning a new Zelda adventure. Quote
Scooter7 Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 Wow - this is a really amazing ReMix. It gets especially good around 00:48.9... Definately worth a listen (or in my case, 5+ listens), especially if you've played and enjoyed Wind Waker. Quote
Duo Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 This is a great song! It stands among the best of all the Zelda remixes on the site. It reminds me both of starting a new Zelda adventure and Pirates of the Cartibbean, oddly enough. It works great and I don't imagine I'll stop listening to this piece for a long time to come. The build up, the transitions...the everything. This sounds like it's coming right out of a symphony orchestra. Having the main theme show through for only that little bit is really a highlight to me, as well. Quote
GreyMage Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 this remix really makes me feel like im in love with wind waker all over again. other times it has me imagine an ocarina of time animeish music video that summarizes the entire game. haha im such a nerd very epic. who wouldn't want to give this piece a try? Quote
NSider Posted December 29, 2007 Posted December 29, 2007 Amazing. This piece is THE best Zelda remix I ever heard. Maybe the best game remix I ever heard. Wow. Quote
Plachy Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 There are those who fail to appreciate this kind of music, those whose souls are so tainted by the world and the dark mists of egotism and sensationalism that they have lost the capacity to sense true grandeur. Let them first find the light within themselves, then the wonders that abound shall be manifest. Amazing the power of music to inspire such poetry. Quote
Fibre-Optics Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 This is great, it's a brilliant remix. It would be great placed as a theme in its own game. Good work Quote
MessagesFromEarth Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 Epic and stirring, this piece could easily be the framing for any Zelda game. Beautiful orchestration Quote
Opterion Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 That excellent harp hooks me from the beginning. The dynamics throughout are fantastic; all over the place in the best way possible. Great orchestral arrangement, like everyone here has already said. Quote
Czar Diego Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 Someone made an ....interesting TF2 video to this... Quote
DarkeSword Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 Someone made an ....interesting TF2 video to this... Yeah I linked that in the TF2 thread a couple of months ago. Freakin' brilliant. Quote
Lucentas Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 Beautiful job. Another DS classic. He just took the source and ran with it. Quote
42 Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 Someone made an ....interesting TF2 video to this... Mein Gott! That is.. Wow... Words... they fail me. My mind is blown. One of the most amazing things in quite a while. Aside from the fact that I will forever have WindWaker and Team Fortress 2 forever linked in my mind, this is an amazing piece; its so melody driven. It definitely feels like the theme to some ancient forgotten lore, highly grandiose, equal parts orchestral and medieval, with a great sense of destiny. This is a really beautiful piece. p.s. Bonk! :3 Quote
EternalVengeance777 Posted April 14, 2010 Posted April 14, 2010 Amazing remix, I love it, one of the best songs I have heard on this site Quote
shadow3121 Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 Wow. To get chills not even a minute into a piece... it's incredible. DS really knows his way around the orchestra, and I absolutely LOVE his work. He always seems to have a remix of something from every game that i love, and this piece does not disappoint. Quote
OceansAndrew Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Great reverb on the opening harp, gotta let me know what you are using there, dude! For presumably all free samples, this all sounds pretty nice, even the choir. The arrangement is classy and nuanced, with tasteful additions, and everything done here has a distinct place in the mix. The pacing is strong, and everything is melodically interesting, with good dynamics. Good stuff Shariq, now about hooking me up with that reverb... Quote
DarkeSword Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 I believe it's just Fruity Reverb. Quote
OceansAndrew Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 I believe it's just Fruity Reverb. That is not a reverb I can use. ;_; Could you maybe just lie and say it is some random reverb I can get as a free AU plugin? Just link to any reverb and i'll probably believe you. Quote
MechaFone Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Epic adventures on the high seas! This remix takes me places I haven't been since I was young and dreaming of...well, you know. Adventure. Quote
WesternZypher Posted December 28, 2010 Posted December 28, 2010 I'd've said set sail for high adventure, but a poster before me beat me to it, still this mix is awesome enough that it bears repeating. Set Sail for High Adventure! Quote
