Peach Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Inspiration for this composition came from The Wind Waker, Ocarina of Time, and Twilight Princess from the Zelda game series. Originally, this song was going to be part of the soundtrack for The Legend of Zelda role-playing sim in Second Life, namely the main overworld theme. However, plans have changed for the sim's setting from an original kingdom to future Termina. The kingdom name "Zarkaine" originates from the fictitious Zelda: Oracle of Secrets Poster project I developed years ago for school. This is my first song played on piano and refined in MIDI; so please, be gentle! http://www.HarmonyOfArts.com/original-music/Zeldaesque.mp3 http://www.designerpeach.com/original-music/Zeldaesque.mp3 Alternately, you can view the YouTube video with additional commentary at: Many thanks go to those from this forum and beyond for helping improve the sound quality of this piece.

jabond23 Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Very well done. It brings me back to when i first played Ocarina Of Time. It has that wonderful sounding atmosphere to it. Looking forward to more of your work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melody Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 this is pretty great. i definitely get that sense of majesty and mystery you get when taking in the landscape from ocarina of time or twilight princess's overworld. the oboe part reminds me of some of the melancholy tracks from the gba fire emblems, which is great. i can't think of any production flaws to address other than lack of velocity editing on the snare. nice work here.

MechaFone Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Excellent sounds here, I like very much. I can hear the Zelda-esque sounds you refer to. Good job on this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peach Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 Thank you all so much! I didn't realise I had replies until just now. It was a slow day when I posted this topic. There will be more Zelda-related songs, since I am composing a soundtrack. This is just a bonus track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
