The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild "Nest of Dreams" 7:33

Part two of RebeccaETripp's Zelda sky suite is also Tripp's featured ReMix #99 before we pop the metaphorical champagne for her next mixpost, an unprecedented 100 OC ReMixes! Once again showcased in Tripp's soaring medley are the combined wind talents of Gamer of the Winds, Medllix, and Steven Higbee, literally breathing musical life into this lovely collection of themes flying across five Zeldas, which Tripp ran down for us:

• 0:00 "Vah Medoh 2 Terminals" (BotW)
• 1:13 "Eagle's Tower" (LA)
• 2:12 "City in the Sky" (TP)
• 3:27 "Astral Observatory" (MM)
• 4:13 "Revali's Theme" (BotW)
• 5:12 "Rito Village" (BotW)
• 6:04 "Crimson Loftwing" (SS)

Panelist prophetik music's play-by-play managed to throw kudos to practically every aspect of everyone's involvement - Tripp's arranging alongside Gamer of the Winds' piccolo and flutes, Medllix's flute, oboe, and English horn, and Steven Higbee's clarinet and ocarina:

"the little picc and ocarina flutters in here are really nice [...] as we get into the eagle's tower section, and i like the shift in tempo and time signature through this.

city in the sky's opening is nonsense, so it's fun hearing it realized here at 2:28. this section is a much broader realization than the prior song in this medley, and it's pretty without being overwhelming. [...]

moving into something as traditional as astral observatory right after that is a significant change, and i thought it was handled pretty well. it's a pretty short cameo for the theme though, which is a bummer since it's such a nice original. revali's theme right after it though is also a strong melody, so that's a nice one to embellish more. [revali's theme] is easily some of the most lush orchestration in the entire work. [...]

rito village comes in soon after and has some nice settling action before again building up some energy with sfx and some nice flourishes in the flutes. the last source, crimson loftwing, is represented in some beautiful oboe work and then english horn - what a beautiful tone! [...] it's such a resonant and rich sound. [...] there's some wind fish cameo at the very end, and it's done.

this does what it says on the tin, as we'd expect. the transitions are solid, each theme is represented nicely, and the overall package is enjoyable."

Fellow judge Chimpazilla also praised the team's part 2 outcome, saying "this is a beautiful and delicate medley of these themes, and it is very well executed and arranged". jnWake had mentioned our last ReMix by mo.oorgan as something that works well in the background, and despite the entirely different mood here, I can certainly say the same for this continuation of Tripp's sky medley, which continues the lush and intimate atmosphere initiated in part 1. :-) Stay tuned for part 3 of the Tripp's sky themes medley, which will cap off Rebecca's triple-digit milestone of OC ReMix contributions!
