This one's been a long time in the making.  It started in late 2017 after playing a good portion of Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.  There were a few tracks (Tarrey Town in particular) that I just HAD to sample.  The experience of that game moved me to mine the entire soundtrack (and sound effects) for inspiration. Before I knew it I had and albums worth of beats I really loved.  I sat on em for a while, knew they needed refined and was thinking I would do my usual remix thing with em and put other artists vocals over top.  But as I began refining the beats, something about them overwhelmed me with the desire to write and perform again...and so a very long process began.

From around 2019 - 2023 I wrote, recorded, re-wrote, re-recorded, edited, scrapped, produced, mixed, mastered, and tried to make every one of the songs mean something to me and sound like something I was proud of.  The vibe all started to come together when I decided to lift some Robin Williams quotes to introduce and close out the album.  Robin and I were born on the same day, and he was a noted Zelda fan after all.  When I stumbled across his lines from "August Rush" in my search, I knew it was a perfect fit.  Then I decided it needed some vinyl scratch style vocal stabs to really round out the some of the songs.   I taught myself how to emulate sound that with my synth and scoured the ENTIRE original Zelda 90's cartoon for some great clips, and I certainly found them.

I could've called it good, and released this album over a year ago, but it wasn't good enough for me.  I started studying mixing and mastering theory and practice so I could create something that sounded more professional and aurally cohesive.  The final product is much better for the patience and effort I gave to it.

So now comes the hardest part.  Setting it free into the universe. Letting go of it and moving on to the next.  I wish I could hold onto it forever, but it won't grow that way, and neither will I.  Can't wait to see what I come up with next.
