ReMix:The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening "Secret Seashells" 3:55

Decent sounding. Mult-song or multi-title mixes like this one that host more than a few songs are usually bigger, more elaborate pieces however. This one was pretty simple, with just a few seconds second or two of Zelda's theme and Aryll's theme thrown in... I didn't really see the point. Could have just been a Mabe village mix and focus on just that. But nothing wrong with the style of the song itself. For what it is worth, this seems to be the only song that incorporates Aryll's Theme from TWW as far as I can tell.

Very smooth and calming piece. I especially like the transitions from one track to another. Definitely a little diamond on this site

Completely ignore what the last dude because this song is friggin awesome i downloaded it a day or two ago and can't stop playing it because if i do i'll start thinking about and have to go play it truelly one of my all time favorites especially the riff at 1:40.

Heh, I added that riff mainly to lessen the chances of the judges saying "NO NEW MATERIAL; I GIVE IT A NO", but yeah.. it did turn out to be a pretty decent riff didn't it? EDIT: Nvm, I assumed you were talking about the melody that first appears @ about 0:58 . I suppose the word you were looking for (for 1:40) might be "jam" or something similar. xD

Thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed it! =)

Hey, all! The maker of this remix is here once again to say thank you so much for all of your comments (including the criticisms about the phoniness of the samples: it's quite true).

And thanks for helping me get them to label the correct tunes used too! I was wondering if it'd ever happen. =D

And to Noir, zomg, that's awesome. I'd love to perform it with you some time live! Hehe.

Very much obliged, everyone. =)

the strings were pretty weaksauce, but the harpsichord sounds fantastic, and it even has a very proper playing style. I think if this had live violin, it'd be one of the site standouts, but as is, it's merely a very good arrangement held back by some subpar samples.

If you enjoyed the game, you'll really love it, and even as someone who is merely familiar with the melody, I came away with a smile.

I'm learning this for violin.

Can someone please fix the songs list for this remix? It isn't House by the Bay or Tal Tal Heights!

It's Mabe Village (because it's faster) and Outset Island! (Or Aryll's theme, but it seems to slow) There's something else there too but I have no idea what it is.

And the remixer themselves have stated this and it still hasn't been fixed after all this time....

It's such a good remix too. It's no wonder why I can't find some mixes on the site.

Love this remix. Been listening to it a thousand times (which, of course, is a slight exaggeration). Something I keep hearing is a bit of Outset Island snuck into the remix a couple of times. I love it.

OMG NOSTALGIA ATTACK.

Seriously, if you have links awakening, you will LOVE THIS.

Lots of personalization, love the style as well, well mixed, and the baroque section is fucking awesome

My only complaint is that it outstays its welcome a little, goes on a little bit too long, but i'm sure that some won't have this problem.

Highly recommended, essential if you have the game. Awesome work

This mix has been with me quite a while. Back when I was just nuts for Zelda, I listened to this a lot (as well as a couple other mixes), so there's almost a tattoo of it in my neurological pathways. Brings me back to my time in school, and to a time when I really wasn't into music much at all. In a way, you could say this was one of the bridging tools I used to learn a greater appreciation for music.

So even though my opinion of this is that I now think it sounds quite robotic and not as full as it should be, I'm really not going to hold that against it. I enjoy this as an excellent assortment of melodies presented by an obviously faux chamber orchestra, and I don't know whether it would have ingrained itself on me half as well if the instruments weren't as harsh or direct as they are. That's a good thing, in my book.

I don't want to say that this mix only appeals to me because I was once naive enough not to hear its flaws. On the contrary, I think this has the perfect middleground of not sounding too fake or too real, so that it creates a hybrid that is strangely superior to anything I imagine in its place. That alone doesn't make the mix, of course. It's the arrangement that justifies the instrumentation. Stellar conversion of the old Gameboy tune and weaving other tunes in makes it a real trip through the Zelda generations.

There's plenty to appreciate here and plenty to complain about if you hate synthetic instruments badly pretending to sound like real ones. Regardless, I'm still a fan after all the years and all the listens.

I wonder why the supposed source tunes are listed as being House by the Bay and Tal Tal Mountain... neither of which are involved.

If whoever was responsible for that cares to know, it's Mabe Village. Duh. xP

I started wondering WHY this remixer decided to speed up the melody, give it to a violin, and add a baroque backrgound...

Then I heard why... the Windwaker cameo was not a bad idea, but a bit too... well... predictable. Got a little old after a while. I wanted to hear more original interpretations... but oh well....

Very Bach. I usually don't like Baroque-style music (it's hard to play on the piano!), but this is awesome. Keep up the great work!

this song reminds me of a cheerful xmas scene in a movie.
