Hyrule Symphony - Hyrule Castle

School has taken over my life. Piano practicing for lessons have taken over my evenings. And the only time I have to compose are on Saturdays and Sundays so I'm sorry I haven't been able to put out any new material. I have some projects underway but due to my schedule it makes it rather difficult to finish any of these ideas and then when I'm busy the idea drifts away.

HOWEVER...I decided it was time to just stick this up there. A personal project of mine is to re-orchestrate some pieces from The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening soundtrack into full symphonic movements. I always wanted to do an orchestral version of Mabe Village because of its simplicity and child-like tune. So I decided to take a shot at it and created this piece. Influenced by other Zelda scores like The Windwaker soundtrack and the Majora's Mask soundtrack and others, this piece only took about a week or so and like traditional video game music I went and just looped it as if it were a score from the game. Anyway, enjoy the piece. Expect more orchestral arrangements of Link's Awakening in the future! I've got a brilliant idea for the boss/nightmare battle that I'm eager to work on and deliver that. Anyway, stay tune for more!

PS: Also this piece was written using EWQL Symphonic Gold and Storm Drum 2 on a 2009 MacBook Pro 13 inch model with a 2.53 GHz with 8 GB of RAM.

Also: Here's the original tune if you wanna compare -

V I D E O G A M E S || The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening - Mabe Village

Finally I´m somewhat happy,,  after some tinkering I think I arrived at how to set up my mic´s and how to play my upright for this project that has been building up for a long time -  And last night I did the first session of the hours albums.

The idea is to sit down and just record, and thats what I did last night, recorded 8 songs and this one is number two. Each album will be 8 songs named after the monastic hours, the circle of christian meditation that has mostly become lost in today society.

I really hope you like this idea and sound, and that some of you might even buy the whole album on itunes and bandcamp when the time comes. The other album Skuggaskil (physical release) is coming out next week,,, cover is finished and now they only need to print and put everything together.

Feel Free

So when I originally wrote this piece it was intended to be for an orchestration project for doing indie music but with each listen, even after I handed it in and all was done (or so I thought), I would just imagine going through life with my lovely wife. Intimate moments like watching the sunset on the patio of a cabin, enjoying a cup of hot cocoa by the fireplace, playing in the sand on the beach while the sun's rays lit up her face. Ya know those moments... Anyway, so I'm dedicating this song to my lovely wife and what she means to me. Belated Valentine's Day gift, haha!

Keeno’s back with a grand gesture. Succeeding his outstanding debut album, “Life Cycle”, the “Futurist” LP soars through sixteen tracks with boundless finesse.

Keeno thrives with his cinematic and orchestral offshoots of drum & bass, silken smooth soundscapes and deep weighty bass.

Opening track “Faithless” sets the scene with elegant and epic string sections jumping into a playful arrangement. With serious drum-work in place vocal talents Oscar Corney, MC Fava and Alice Gasson bring tracks “Lifeline”, “Perspective” and “A Breath” to life with tight harmonies and rich, velvet tones. Keeno hasn’t held back in “Dream Sequence”, “At Twilight” and “Futurism” with majestic grandeur travelling seamlessly through star-lit journeys of sound and space.

The growth and musical virtuosity of this young talent has flourished since signing to Med School back in 2013. By uniting his high-end production skills and classical training in a multitude of instruments Keeno has quenched the thirst of drum & bass lovers across the globe.

Last year Keeno took a leap of faith, deciding to leave his full time education behind to set his sights on what is sure to be a long career ahead in music. It’s abundantly clear this was the right choice - “Futurist” embodies everything we’ve come to expect from this exceptionally talented young producer.

Zelda OoT - Medley Orchestra

Never ever played any Zelda game growing up, my first encounter with 'Link' was when I played Smash Bros. on the N64 on a trip to my cousins in the united states (back in 2002) three years after the game released . Thats when I first heard the epic music playing on the Zelda stage, ~10 years later I made my first Zelda cover, Here it is.

And yes, I know its the Zelda Lullaby played backwards.

This song is Also known as..
The 2011 trailer music

Legend of Zelda by Advait Nemlekar

This is a mini orchestral cover of the shop theme from Zelda Ocarina of Time. I'd never paid much attention to the Zelda music until recently. I wish I had gotten into it much earlier as there's so many good pieces of music hidden behind 8bit blips and blops. I tried to keep faithful while adding a little of my own style.

Zelda OoT - Shop Mini Song Orchestra

An orchestration of the ending theme from Super Mario World by Koji Kondo. I posted a shorter version of this a while back, but this has the ending now where I tested out Sample Modeling's Horns & Tuba. So much awesome.


Super Mario World - Ending Orchestra

An orchestration of the Overworld 2 theme from Super Mario Brothers 3. I kept faithful to the original with a few wiggly improvs here and there. It was a practice in a closer, more intimate orchestral setup. I kept a few detunings and weird things here and there to give it a bit less of a Hollywood feel and more like you've gone to see a crazy orchestra playing some Mario - hopefully that comes across.

Super Mario Brothers 3 - Overworld 2 Orchestra

Steve Jablonsky - Infinite White

A medley of the 3 different versions of 'Comet Observatory' that play in Super Mario Galaxy.
Personally I have always liked these three themes and think they compliment the setting on the game perfectly, as a quite solitude where Mario rests ready to head off to the various galaxies in search of the Power Stars. The music grows more triumphant with each star he brings back to Rosalina. I hope you enjoy this medley.

Super Mario Galaxy-Wind Garden

Music for Gusty Garden Galaxy-Overworld

An orchestration of Hyrule Castle from The Legend of Zelda the Wind Waker. It has been a while since my last Zelda orchestration. This one stays pretty true to the original.

Zelda tWW - Hyrule Castle Orchestra

This piece was conceived a year ago when my buddy, Austin, suggested I should write an orchestral arrangement of one of the prettiest Zelda melodies ever which is from Majora's Mask by Koji Kondo titled "The Song of Healing". So this is a sneak peak and hope to get it completed by the end of the month, but enjoy it, download it and play it however many times you want!
