Here is an orchestral rendition that I created from scratch in Logic Pro X of the well known theme from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. This theme is my favourite track from the game, its peaceful and holds many memories to me, which is why I really wanted to make a rendition of it for such a long time, here is how it turned out!

Here is another Zelda Wii U track that I composed, it has been a while since I have uploaded a fan made Zelda Wii U track, so I thought I should create some more. I made this track to fit a horseback battle, fast paced and heavy. I can imagine there will be a few battles whilst exploring the land of Hyrule on the Wii U game!

Enjoy

Here is a short orchestral rendition I created of the Kakariko VIllage theme in the Legend of Zelda Series, to test out the new Albion One library from Spitfire Audio. 

Kakariko Village - Albion One Test

Here is an orchestral rendition I created of the well known Kakariko Village theme from The Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past and Ocarina of Time. This theme was created as a test for my new orchestral library: Spitfire Albion One, the only other library I used was the Spitfire Harp. All the orchestral sounds are from the Albion One library. This theme took me a while to create as I worked a lot on the dynamics to create the right sound I wanted to achieve, and this is how it turned out. 

Thanks for listening!

Hey folks, this is the last video of the Halloween special remixes. After popular request, I decided to remix the Shadow Temple theme from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, this was created with Logic Pro X. This theme was done by ear and was quite difficult to recreate, so please excuse any imperfections. 

Thanks again for all the support and enjoy!

Hey everybody, here is a track that has been requested quite a few times (thank you!) This is my own adaptation of the music that was featured in the newest Zelda: Breath of the Wild E3 trailer, I decided to play with a few of the motifs and create my own track. In terms of instrumentation, I wanted to keep them the same as the soundtrack we heard in game. Hope you like it!
