Can you feel it? The epicness? I can :)

[@LechugaEspartana]

my skin gets all weird because of the full epic power xdxdxd

[@aurelion-sama]

Can you feel it? The spirit?

[@mizgraffiti]

I always found this song to be the most depressing song for the sages. It fit for the time in the game though.

[@seby826]

while nocturne of shadows gives me the chill

[@randymarsh1852]

Its even more depressing in the key of g minor

[@MrTudian]

I played this game when I was a kid, and now I realize this music marked my life forever. I am a PC gamer, but Zelda series, especially Ocarina of time is in my opinion the best game ever.

[@finishim1659]

As the Hylian Army marches to war, they hum this to ensure serenity of spirit and of mind during combat, knowing fully that the battle they march to could very well be their last. Just a thing that I thought up on the fly as a fan of The Legend of Zelda.

[@squill4883]

But this is the song of the gerudo sage and according to theory the hylians committed genocide, killing all gerudo in their sacred temple and turning it into an execution, torture, banishment and imprisonment chamber for hyrule.

[@finishim1659]

+William Richards Meh... many theorists beg to differ on that point, but there was the part of some strange event causing most, if not all, Gerudos to disappear... considering that the game tells us that Ganon was born in the Valley, and although not specified when, but where for sure, he was born in the same Stronghold Link got tossed in when he was caught by the Gerudos. The irony was so funny for me at the time, but, meh. The problem is whether or not that is the true chain of events... looking at the situtation from a logical angle, we can see that it may be possible that the Gerudos lied about some 'mass genocide' comitted by the Hyrulian goverment as a way to gain favor from countries allied against Hyrule. It is also very possible the story was blown out of porportion. One person may call the execution of 10-15 people just that: Execution. But there are people that the shock of the event makes them... not exactly sane, if you get my drift. That's what I think, anyhows.

[@pehime3lepiona404]

I pictured everything you said while listening to this and it was really moving. thank you

[@chara2038]

@@finishim1659 Well the Shadow Temple proves that the royal family used to torture people, having a civil war agains the Gerudo kinda proves that there was a genocide on the Gerudo and Sheikah that where against the rolyal family, maybe only the Gerudo if these Sheikah where actualy the Interlopers that got banished to the Twilight realm.

[@finishim1659]

@@chara2038 possibly, although I dunno for sure. It's hard to say because in TP the only information we know regarding the so called Interlopers is that they messed with powers beyond their comprehension iirc and got sent to the Zelda equivalent of the Warp. As to the Shadow Temple being a place of torture... Maybe. I don't think so though. There's an awfully large lack of physical torture devices in the Shadow Temple, in fact there's a fairly large lack of... Anything. Mostly the Temple is filled with the undead and other supernatural beings, so perhaps it isn't a place of torture so much as it's a place where some form of dark arts was practiced? If you note that the graveyard in front of the temple has a very... Interesting keeper, and that the dead seem to be restless near there, it could be inferred that the Hylians were dabbling with something like necromancy. But this is also just theories and guesses.

[@MICELTUSAV]

Time is a curious thing...it never seems to stand still. It ages, corrupts, even fades for some. Time is a thing given purpose by existence, it wears down ones body and mind, but it never seems to break ones Spirit...listen now, to the song devoted to the unbreakable will of all who live, listen now...to the Requiem of Spirit

[@MegaSim3]

Ragnarok Chronofin I understand the concept of time a little different than you, as I see it more as an fluid, for it being sometimes a small trickle, squeezing and dripping through the tiniest cracks and other times beeing an unstoppable force, toring down even the mightiest fortresses build against the overwhelming forces of nature.

[@MoonlightStitch]

Ragnarok Chronofin Calm down dude....have a snickers.....o.o''

[@MICELTUSAV]

i cant...no molars :c

[@deffdefying4803]

Ragnarok Chronofin Chew it with your canines and your front-teeth-whose-name-escapes-me EDIT: INCISORS! I just remembered.

[@Goonchtastic]

Ragnarok Chronofin That was an awful-quick jump to an insult. Frightfully quick. Especially for one who seems to share their poetic views on quite a number of the Hylian Ensemble's videos...

[@Pritchman]

Hyrule ensemble you may be gone, but your spirit will always and shall forever live on in our hearts. 3

[@GeneralOctavius]

You say that like he is gone forever, I hope you are just referring to his inactivity.. Nothing happened to him, right?

[@shynnsup8383]

GeneralOctavius Did he die?

[@PalPlays]

Did he die?

[@rayannabobbitt9715]

Well he haven't upload a video in quite a while, so maybe he is dead.

[@JoshuaRWorkman]

Rayanna Bobbitt Or he just stopped and moved on to other things.

[@ocarinagamer4207]

A Requiem for the loss of Nabooru.... It feels sad of course, after Link watches her be snatched away, trapped in her own mind for seven years.

[@MercysNo.1]

I loved the Requiem of Spirit, especially the extra notes that aren't really easy to hear, but are fun to listen to.

[@killuminati413]

R.I.P Hiroshi Yamaushi you WILL be remembered we owe you our childhood memories

[@nayr_YT]

I want the entire Gerudo Clan to perform this song at my funeral.

[@sailordarty9032]

Requiem: Mass for the repose of the souls of the dead. It does give you that ominous, supernatural feel.

[@deffdefying4803]

Dartanyan Elson Shouldn't the Requiem be for the Shadows then, and the Nocturne for the Spirits?

[@sailordarty9032]

Jeffrey Stanley It should be that way, shouldn't it? But the Requiem of Spirit fits better here, doesn't it?

[@deffdefying4803]

Dartanyan Elson Eh, I guess

[@nicholastuckett4363]

Very Supernatural

[@OmegaSoypreme]

Oh shit, this gave me legit goosebumps. I wasn't expecting such a big epic version of it.

[@routongamingentertainment2185]

That bass/pad sounds like it came right out of the Spirit Temple, very nice job

[@GGGustavGaming]

can't i like it more than one time?

[@ItsTiesca]

I love the percussion in both this and the Nocturne of Shadow.

[@theeldritchknight5019]

this is one of my favorite songs from ocarina of time

[@ikonta169]

The Gerudo, a strong people hailing from a harsh land. Their wills are as tough as diamonds and their spirits tougher. They are often seen as barbaric, uncivilized and evil peoples by those hiding away behind their walls and windows. They do not understand what it means to live the way they do. They are Gerudo but the "castle folk" can never understand, they are too scared to leave their walls. The Goddess Din had blessed her people with the desert it refined them into who they are.

[@Rhathirus]

You, are truly amazing... The music you have composed is magnificent. I hope you continue the great work.

[@MrServantRider]

Out of the three I've listened to, this is the best Requiem of Spirit remix I've heard. :P Excellent job.

[@jacksonthee7356]

AFTER THREE SECONDS OF LISSTENING TO THIS I SUBSCRIBED. THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER

[@TTvLupus]

It feels like I am anime character that I returned from reality when I listen to this song

[@PianoGuy1226]

Dang.. This is a good song! Good job:)

[@1angelicdemon1]

to be honest when i saw the thumb nail i wasn't concentrating which requiem of spirit i chose. i just wanted to live in my nostalgia for a bit. only to find out i thought i was listening to an intro for an epic movie. after a minute i said holy shit a youtuber should use this for a fan made zelda movie intro or box office hit. either way u break it down. i'm in shock and awe.

[@Danny_casilla]

I can't stop to hear that song!!

[@nicolevalois]

This is AMAZING. Thank you

[@Kruemeluemeli]

I love it, its amazing!

[@leoncrazyman07]

GOOSEBUMPS EVERY TIME!

[@franciscagaarder7339]

[@Makkaru112]

[@A3therius]

[@user-zr5og7tq4b]

This is a jojoreference?

[@maidenslayer]

It's like Summoning (Austria) meets Koji Kondo.

[@zachwhaley4364]

That's epic.

[@Pirmin_K]

My fav. song is THE REQUIEM OF SPIRIT & THE SONG OF HEALING

[@shadowstar967]

Keep going

[@YugureDarkwolf]

One person got lost in the desert...

[@victorreyes5519]

Best song😄😄😄😄

[@k1r22]

oh god

[@EnliLumejt]

This is similar to ''Nocturne of shadows'' listen carfully 0:11 and 0:20

[@Jac0Frost0SCZ]

Hylianensemble, since you already know how this system works, I won't put the same stuff I would normally here. All I have to say is this: Keep it up.

[@PrincessOfTheEnd]

actually i'm gonna go work on one of those right now, i just need some glass triangles in red green and blue, a blowtorch, a workshop, and one of those visor things...

[@sharkanilaing1762]

Ocrania of times spirit temple bites man that place was basically a sand box kids maze

[@olivierlaine9045]

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@vexillethepretzel9086]

Ah I remember New grounds.com that's old school. My cousin showed me that site back around the Windows 2000 times.

[@leilianemoura9738]

0:39 reminds me of Nocturne of Shadow and Song of Storms.

[@derkommentator1980]

If there would ever be a Zelda Movie... This song should play when Link goes through the desert.

[@Foxplayer091]

I can't be the only one to get assassin Creed vibes from this song

[@Pirmin_K]

+Connor Pierson u r right

[@alejandrawalteros1369]

it sounds as a game of thrones soundtrack, like a war or something I like it

[@nicholastuckett4363]

Very Nostalgic

[@blober55]

I remember something about a Zelda musical but maybe it was a dream or maybe it wasnt

Ganon and Twinrova disliked this XD

[@CitrousMoon]

Shouldn't Twinrova count as 2 votes? ;o

[@thegodparty5946]

Rebels' Glory no because Twinrova is them combined, koume and kotake are the beginning stage of the boss

[@Courteous_Corsair]

insert Dr.Who citation here ( this song seems fit so fine!)

[@MegaSim3]

+Geof L I think you're completly right! :D

[@rchetype7029]

Sounds like Metal Gear, BROTHER.

[@Tarotkun13]

Do you make these Orchestrals yourself? Because if you do, you should know that this is truly EPIC. I wish that in the game, the first time you learned each song they had given full cutscenes with music like this. :)

[@SelBoi]

Omagad this going too far i'm gonna loose my mind.

[@christianpaez2624]

is there a way to get sheet music for this arrangement?

[@robertsamuelcolladodejesus5475]

+Christian Paez turn down for what 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@gir4430]

Christian Paez OMFG THAT RESPONSE WAS PRICELESS

[@NicoUnken]

[@h5u7p5gt9]

Someone should name you: Master of Remasters.

[@jaclynsmusic6090]

[@sharkingame]

Seven persons give dislike to this video, seven persons what doesnt now what is *epic*

[@kobrer3]

with link strugling trough the desert it would be great (sorry if soming was spelt wrong)

[@azazelmakara3716]

i've looked into it, there is in fact a trailer for the proffered movie, but it wasn't accepted and then trashed.

[@Jac0Frost0SCZ]

I've changed my style of telling people when the So Cold videos are done. (At least, I'll tell them in this fashion for the time being.) Anyways, it's done.

[@sunburntheskylander]

I think of xerneas when I hear this for some reason...

[@michealdodson6482]

i want to make a zelda show in cgi now

[@playerx2952]

can you loop this plz?

[@grossschwanze]

no offense, but... isn't the ocarina supposed to play? I almost recall it being one octave higher...as well. Thing you are doing great work, but hear I am really missing something. /Herr Gross

[@derkommentator1980]

struggling*, but no prob, I'm german so I'm no genius aswell.

[@sant000ful]

who be dissing on the violin?

[@MashedJoetatoes]

I second this, I play the violin.

[@jeweetzelf734]

I dont play it

[@deffdefying4803]

sant000ful I used to play the violin but stopped because I couldn't be assed to practise, but I do agree that the violin is soothing, soft and romantic

[@darkrai205]

nothing special wow your really humble and i compliment that but have you thought about writing storys or anything cause you literally have given new depth to these pieces of music

[@horseshoe344]

yes, believe it or not, there are decent people out there XD I have talked to a few of these mature people... Then there have been those who haven't been so mature(those people actually amuse me...as they sit there trying to irritate me I am just laughing lightly to myself and replying calmly and with semi-proper grammar XD) It's kinda hard to find mature people on KZbin today....sad really...

[@haginwald2536]

Feeling Epic. (Not me... The song '-')

[@stopandchek]

Who made this? You?

[@morningbowl3156]

Disliked by GaNoN and Koume & Kotake

[@jasieltorres6266]

Someone listening this in 2023?

[@azazelmakara3716]

i heard that there was supposed to be a movie, but it was trashed for some reason.

[@Greenhelm64]

i thought it was an april fools

[@PrincessOfTheEnd]

just saying, but imagine a Triforce pendant! it wouldn't be too girly so boys could wear it too!

[@lunaloud7034]

y does this song have to be in d minor? its just too freaking sad

[@lunaloud7034]

it is indeed. along with many songs in zelda.

[@stanleyscumbag6067]

By that logic F Major is sad, since they're the same! And if any minor scale to you is sad, everything is sad since they all have relative Majors/minors. And minor does not necessarily mean sad!!

[@PrincessOfTheEnd]

kid/guy (i'm sorry but i don't know which wone to call you by) YOU should be a poet. more specifically you need to go on wattpad.

[@ikonta169]

i'd just write down what the song "said" to me, its nothing special really...

[@halomaree2708]

ILLUMINATI CONFIRMED! IT RELATES TO ZELDA OHMERGERD!!!!!!!

[@tristanlopez8819]

No offense but I find these covers a little over the top for me. Still good however! Good work!

[@catastrophucked]

Sadly I find this one to be a little too try-hard and divergent from the original theme requiem of spirit.

[@alphahelix7948]

The song is too "try-hard"? What does that even mean?

[@hellsingfan89]

alpha helix its what somebody says when they either don't know how to criticize music or they have no actual criticism but feel the necessity to complain anyways.

[@catastrophucked]

alpha helix It adds way too much extra rhythm by adding in a higher, louder pitch, which I find to be at odds with the original in-game track. I don't like that nor do I like the grandiose epic feel as opposed to the softer, quieter tone of the original.

[@catastrophucked]

hellsingfan89 I can answer questions myself. Now shut the fuck up and stop being a nuisance just because you can't handle the fact that someone has a differing opinion of yours. There are plenty of tracks done by the HylianEnsemble that I find to be great, but this isn't one of them because it tries to do something else with the track that clashes too much with the original.

[@catastrophucked]

The word you're looking for is inarticulate, not illiterate, since being inarticulate has to do with one's inability to express themselves coherently, whereas illiteracy is simply the basic inability to read and write. My constructive criticism against the rendition of "requiem of spirit" is an expression of my personal opinion, and nothing more than that. I gave the short version for why I didn't like the rendition because I didn't feel any inclination to elaborate on my reasoning, what with people preferring the "tl;dr" explanations over long-winded presentations like the one I'm giving you now. If the guy just did the smart thing, ergo, the polite thing like what alpha helix did, I wouldn't have insulted him at all, nor would I have to spend time correcting you on YOUR inability to use words according to their actual definitions and proper contexts. Thirdly, he wasn't implying illiteracy (who the fuck applies literacy to music), he was telling alpha helix I was complaining and providing zero constructive feedback. Lastly I only said he couldn't handle my opinion because he made zero attempt at trying to understand my perspective and decided to throw out a short-hand judgement instead, which is lazy and why I called him a nuisance and told him to shut the fuck up. Tl;dr Learn how to use words according to their proper definitions, read a situation more carefully before you try to use a another person's stupidity (that's hellsingfan89 in case you managed to misread his name too) against them, because it just makes you look like an even bigger idiot than the person you're trying to back up.
