Guest Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Hi OCRemix! I was gathering samples used in Ocarina of Time to build perfect remake of the Shadow Temple theme. I found out the Fire Temples chanting sample is used there. It's played so low (and as a three chord) so it's not recognizable. I know it's nothing special but just wanted to share this out. I was only trying to get the original drums from the song for remixing purposes but got so excited for finding this. Spoiler You can find it in on the video 0.54 You can also check out the FL Studio Project file (20.0.4) and use it for remixing purposes https://www.dropbox.com/s/hqvq9zmnuvywir4/ShadowTempleRemake.zip?dl=0 Here's the original Fire Temple theme for those who don't know about the chanting.

Meteo Xavier Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 I've had the Gold cartridge version since it came out (Nintendo Power deal) and I remember the chanting from being stuck in the Fire Cavern for so long. I was more shocked to learn the other versions of this game didn't have that in there. Still am to some degree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ad.mixx Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Nice find. I would have never figured this out just by listening. I love the chanting version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowe Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Kinda reminds me of the "Movers" track from the Homeworld 2 OST Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeSword Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 When you're a Muslim kid who's used to hearing that stuff at the mosque, it's weird hearing it in a fantasy video game. LuckyXIII and Geoffrey Taucer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argle Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Wow I didn't even know this existed. It sounds so bizarre to be Zelda music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnStacy Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I thought I dreamed the chanting at first. The neighbor girls had the game in a 1.0 cart, and we went through the game together, but didn't make it all the way through. I got a 1.2 cart later on when I got an n64 for Christmas and entered the fire temple again on my own, and thought something was missing, but just thought I dreamed the chanting. Through the power of the internet, you can find out that you weren't dreaming. Magic Technology from the future! RealFolkBlues 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypnotikid Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I have the "Best Sellers" edition, and mine has it too. I thought it got removed in this version. I heard people say that it is Islamic Prayer chanting nor Muslim as I once thought it was. Still Eerie though. (= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Hu Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Man, this was one of my favorite tracks from all of the Zelda series because of the chanting (does anyone know what they're saying? I'm guessing it's a prayer.), and was so bummed when the re-releases had it replaced with some super generic stuff. The sample was used in Cruis'n World as well: But yeah, those Temple themes in OoT are underrated I think, and are fun to trace influences from. The Forest Temple always sounded like Herbie Hancock's "Watermelon Man" to me, and the Fire Temple has that great 2-note percussion line. (And there's that great use of cuica in the Goron City...)

RealFolkBlues Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Wow I had completely forgotten about this but now that you mention it that was totally a thing. Nice find! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
