Gerudo Valley | Epic Remix (The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time)

EPONA MVP!!!!
Epic remixes of this song have been done to death. But there's a good reason right? One more couldn't hurt!
My favorite part of this song is the flamenco guitar and percussion, so I dialed them up to 10, plus an epic brass section. Enjoy :)

[@presidentelmo4516]

It's awesome how throughout the games the Gerudo people evolve from a group of thieves to a nation of honourable warriors

[@griffincontracting]

The Yiga really took over that role

[@Battlesny]

And all it took was 10,000 years

[@Pxm78]

Honour among Thieves.

[@DragoonZell]

I believe they always considered themselves Honorable warriors however it's when Ganondorf gets involved he turns them into thieves by mandate and dissenters are killed or worse. (as you can see by Nabooru's example)

[@jestexgarcia3601]

[@HeyNaniNani]

Adding the castanets alongside the palmas from the original percussion line is sooooo good. Brilliant decisions.

[@extr3nz394]

Its difficult to remix the best song on the video games history but you did a master piece , congrats

[@griffincontracting]

No doubt, the Gerudo theme slaps so hard

[@megajohntopunishenslave427]

Is it on spotafi

[@user-qm4ds1gz8c]

2nd best

[@DJ_Cub]

Epilogue song from Ocarina of Time is better.

[@AnimeThighsImHigh]

All of your orchestrations sound so cinematic. I definitely picture this being used in a Zelda movie if one were to ever be done. Fantastic work, please continue to pursue your goals 🙏

[@melodicimmersion]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@charlesjoughin9863]

Let's just hope it takes itself more seriously then the mario movie did if it's gonna have something this epic

[@HyperNova808]

@@charlesjoughin9863 mario isn’t too serious of a title, zelda however is much more adventure focused

[@vedantpatel5985]

We have got Mario movie, so we will definitely get a Zelda one...

[@herbderbler1585]

Lighthearted Mario movie, serious Zelda movie, dark Metroid movie. If anyone can get it right, it's Nintendo.

[@Nevir202]

This is a "remix" in the same way that redoing a pop-song to be played by a symphony orchestra is a "remix." Absolutely 🔥🔥🔥

[@dustykitty312]

Gave me goosebumps and tears. I forgot how emotionally attached you can become to music from your childhood. Thank you for this

[@Jameslawz]

I was not expecting this...what a mind blowing remix, very well handled. You've rephrased some parts that makes it jump out more, keeping that Arabic and Spanish influence.

[@jbell7400]

Been looking for high quality renditions of Gerudo Valley. This is by far the most impressive in not just technicality but cohesion. Thank you for this

[@greenquartz8554]

i NEED like an hour version of this, please. it is so good

[@alltherandomstuff8612]

Hyrule warriors but ocarina of time if that existed then this would be great

[@melodicimmersion]

Hmmmmmmm… maybe :)

[@Zanavor]

The loop option in video settings: "Am I a joke to you?"

[@greenquartz8554]

@@Zanavor normally i would put it on loop, but im looking for a seamless transition and the start and end kinda mess it up

[@ChronoMune]

@@greenquartz8554bruh a fade out is easy on the ears. And it’s only every 4 minutes lol

[@Dominic1354]

THIS IS LITERALLY A GEM! I would admit if it was not or had flaws, but this is PERFECT!

[@whimsicalisafunword6870]

You did a fantastic job with this arrangement! It’s uplifting and full of life

[@zandalff]

I would just sit in the valley to listen to this soundtrack on repeat. This is an amazing remix!

[@civilrevolution10]

Not only the best video game song but it’s in my top 5 favorite songs of all time!

[@kristophertorres9060]

This is *gorgeous*. Absolutely liked and favorited. Please never stop creating such truly epic remixes! (I should mention I started listening to this at 1.25x and imagined a perfect Gerudo Valley chase scene… so cool.)

[@melodicimmersion]

Nice! I honestly hadn’t tried listening at 1.25 yet, but it’s fun 😆

[@Petter1900]

Gerudo Valley is probably the best Zelda music in the entire series, and that's not a low bar to clear

[@devious_lemontree3896]

Exactly the type of music I was looking for we need more of this kind of stuff for other songs :D

[@gracio1231]

Love the passion n the power from said choir!! so epic

[@deanbard9367]

That piccolo part is so great. The Whole thing is amazing great job. I love it

[@melodicimmersion]

Thanks! I’m happy with how the wind section came out

[@argalock]

I don't know why, but this song brings a tear to my eyes and makes me feel really proud of my country somehow.

[@SwordofAslan]

The only "fault" with this song is that it's not longer. ;) I just want MORE of this epic arrangement in ONE song. Seriously, this is BEAUTIFUL. That full orchestral production is blowing out my eardrums in the BEST way possible.

[@thedanceshack16]

For those of us looking to choreograph to this.... I assure you it's long enough lollll

[@SwordofAslan]

@@thedanceshack16 LOL You have a point! But what about hour-long commutes and you need an even more-epic epic song to drown out the misery?

[@bigosbro21]

I don't often comment on videos, but you and this song deserve every one of these. This, I dare say, is my new favorite version of this son. No other version has seemed to capture the perfection of the original and make it epic without losing a little bit of the nostalgia, emption, and soul. Bravo. Bravo indeed.

[@melodicimmersion]

Thanks for taking the time to leave this comment! You're inspiring me to cover more nostalgic music

[@samuelhepworth486]

I've listened to a lot of remixes of this song, and this one is the best. Amazing work!

[@Kalyandra]

I'd like to hear this with a women's choir but it's very good.

[@lilithvampyre1716]

"I bid you now stand! Women of the Gerudo!"

[@picentz2790]

THIS IS SO SICK! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! EXTREMELY UNDERRATED!

[@Duhemsounds]

This is a well done gerudo valley

[@melodicimmersion]

Thank you, glad I didn’t overcook it

[@christianaman9217]

Holy shit. This is the best remix of this song i've ever heard. You are amazing for creating this beauty.

[@LuzByT]

Really proud of been from Spain. I always thought that the Gerudo tribe were of Andalusia HAHAHAHA

[@davidcervantes9336]

They’re probably based on Andalusin people during the muslim rule.

[@free2express08]

OMG, wow! This is such an amazing composition!

[@neoxbomb]

This gave me goosebumps. Incredible!

[@Ciel42049]

This is giving me goosebumps

[@dtracers]

I think I like this version out of all of the "epic" versions. You actually changed the emphasis of the different parts throughout the piece instead of just "HORNS + BASS" In a very personal opinion on the "2nd go around" I would have changed the response of the flute(?) rhythmic responses to have a different pattern to make it feel more varied. I do love your fill choices and how you chose to do the slow dotted eights or triplets instead of just the swing pattern Also love the timpani + choir guys

[@melodicimmersion]

Thanks for the notes! I’m saving them in case I come back and do an extended version :)

[@dtracers]

@@melodicimmersion I really appreciate that!! I have made quite a bit of music (though nothing good is uploaded to my channel, so don't listen to anything there) So I really appreciate that I can provide something constructive and valuable to your piece! :) (also on additional listen just now I wonder if the notes at 2:04 are a reference to "cowboy pieces" with the whip sound?)

[@marlonfurry4647]

Just one word: ... AMAZING!!!!

[@AL_EVOz]

This is amazing!

[@quantumgod1176]

This deserves more recognition

[@Markini47]

Sounds like a movie score 🤩

running through the gerudo desert listening to this in TOTK

[@melodicimmersion]

Great idea 😆

[@norammm.]

This made me cry - it was SO COOL! ❤️

[@shadowsentertainment7237]

I like how most of the time these songs are called "epic" but they are really just a remake with a few changes, this is truly epic.

[@tylerjames676]

This is how I heard the music of OoT in my head when I was a kid exploring the world of Hyrule. But you brought it to life. Epic!

[@melodicimmersion]

Same! Great minds think alike :)

[@TheREALSimagination]

Epic indeed. Thank you.

[@Mattip_Music]

Awesome 👏

[@NickTheCat_DieGoettlichenZehn]

Let's just have a moment and appreciate not only this version, but also the one and only Kōji Kondō, who composed the original theme for OoT.

[@davidcervantes9336]

This is how I’ve always depicted the Gerudo. Tough desert people. Proud warriors dwelling the sands of the vast and unforgiving desert, stealing to survive and awaiting for their king to return and lead them to war.

[@Pxm78]

The money that I would pay for a total 4K remaster of this First Class game.

[@nashbest6796]

This is legendary.

[@mrthomas7511]

That artwork is beautiful

[@Tak-ux3yr________-]

this sounds totally EPIC :0

[@cosmicbrambleclawv2]

One of my favorite tracks from the entire OST ❤ I quite literally grew up on OoT (picked it up from my uncle when I was 5, back in 2001, and had spent all my childhood watching him play 😂) Gerudo Valley goes HARD ❤

[@thedanceshack16]

Time to choreograph a flamenco to this.... its amazing

[@scoundral2995]

Honestly really well done.

[@melodicimmersion]

It’s the best part :)

Plays in the fight scene at the end of the movie. As the Gerudo and Hylians alike charge the the monster horde. Link and Zelda riding into it alongside the Gerudo queen.

[@HZ0MOCE]

This remix is amazing! I'm gonna have to play the game again after I eventually finish totk

[@myristikos]

this sounds super good! i’m curious how you were able to get such a good sounding guitar (unless you recorded yourself playing, in which case your tone is rly nice). hope to hear more in the future!! :))

[@melodicimmersion]

Thank you! I’m just a guitar beginner, so I used EastWest’s flamenco guitar which was easy to work with and fits this song perfectly

[@squimblow]

@@melodicimmersionWOW

[@mikaelajohnson592]

Are all of these sounds through Eastwest? I've been starting to use them more but I haven't gotten them to sound nearly as amazing as this!

[@fullthrottlewrx]

fucking phenomenal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you accomplish in under 5 minutes what countless others fail to do in dozens of hours!

[@donhjoe2162]

Honestly each of the towns and races of LOZ are interesting material to expand their universe. For example these beautiful and huge Gerudo women could have their own game.

[@therainbowspirit483]

Way too good

[@kneuper3081]

this is a good remix for the zelda movie

[@Squancherson64]

Imagine Link riding through gerudo desert on Epona fighting a Molduga while this plays. Missed opportunity Nintendo.

[@user-qx4mt3iq5h]

This is really tastefully done! The only version I'm hoping for now is one that sounds like it's straight out of a Sergio Leone Western, with the vocals and all.

[@saile4639]

Yo this is fire 🔥🔥🔥🐦‍🔥🐦‍🔥🔥🔥🐦‍🔥. It sounds like if Vah Naboris were in OoT.

This is genuinely one of the greatest remixes I've heard on KZbin however I am greedy and part of me feels like the horn build up at 1:40 could have had a larger payoff, but regardless this is still phenomenal

holy moly here from bones, but your work slaps! dropped a sub :D

[@Teen_Titan_Dreams]

Sav’aaq! One day when i was at a convention, i got to speak in the microphone, and everyone gave me a round of applause for speaking fluent gerudo. I then got to teach everyone some gerudo words. It was AMAZING! Also, great cover. Sav’orq!

[@_Twisty]

I’m curious, how many words are there in gerudo ?
