Update 3/20/15 - Re EQ'ed, adjusted some of the piano tempo

After going through numerous tracks with more lighthearted tone and different genres, I was finally excited to return to a more traditional classical intense piece. Usually my version is slower, but in this instance I really ramped up the speed. After the first four dungeons, I treated the fifth as the start of a darker second act of the game. The theme is no longer a variation of the Caves melody.

In this dungeon, Link is under the sinister gaze of the skeleton warrior. You have to be on your toes for most of the first half because he could show up in any screen. However, by the end you realize that the warrior is actually afraid of you. You are the one actually chasing him down, and reclaiming the treasure. Whereas the first half of my arrangement is a faithful recreation of the original theme, the second half represents the raw emotion Link (hopefully) and the enemies display: dread, fear, determination, resignation. The rhythm is broken up, and the dungeon progression transitions from a chase to a slaughter.

This was work from July 2014 I was hired to do for an Oculus Rift Tech Demo by Massive Square. The pieces are meant to be highly atmospheric, evoking a sense of wonder and magic.

Update 3/20/15 - Re EQ'ed

The color dungeon is a slightly slower version of the original Zelda dungeon theme with a soft section thrown in. It does not fit the rest of the soundtrack in my opinion. I originally did not want to arrange this piece because I would eventually do it when I tackle the original Zelda soundtrack (*hint *hint). I ultimately caved in so that the entire album will be thorough without any stray tracks to nag at the back of my head. That said, I will not be arranging the alternate select screen tunes from the European version.

A big thanks to everyone who has participated on this year long journey with me and all your encouraging comments. If this album accomplishes anything, it is that orchestrated music is nothing without a strong musical foundation. Taking iconic Zelda music and enhancing it with realistic instruments results in a "theoretical soundtrack" that is as good as if not better than most soundtracks today. I did not expect to get this far and am excited to move on to arranging other games!

RIP Satoru Iwata. He was a great inspiration to me and one of my role models.

The instance this theme plays when Samus lands on the planet really establishes the grand exploration the player is about to embark on. While the track is for the Tallon region, the theme is also used in the beginning of the NES Metroid and Super Metroid. As a result I interpret this as also a characterization of Samus Aran. Arrangement-wise, this is the first Sci-Fi music I've attempted, so it was also a learning experience for me.

The original track also includes some great atmospheric sounds fused into the music, which I did not try to emulate, so therefore ignored. As part of my challenge, I wanted to use only traditional orchestral instruments and play them normally to see if I could pull off the sci-fi mood. This is in part inspired by John Williams' purely orchestral Star Wars score, and Hans Zimmer's Inception/Interstellar. In an interview for Inception, Hans stated he wanted to use real instruments with minimal processing. Instead, he instructed the strings section to try to play the music in a "synthesized" way. What I did was keep the articulation of my instruments as flat as possible. I kept the original Tallon Overworld track's use of long harmonic chords, but to keep it from sounding boring and hollow, I faded in many other instruments in and out to add more texture. These include the horns, tremolo strings, clarinet, vocals, and the organ (Which sounds like more Interstellar copying, but the original track also has organs, so I'm good!).

All of this adds up to a piece that celebrates Samus' resourcefulness, adventurous spirit, and graceful movements.
