Majora's Mask - Oath To Order (reorchestrated)

Another classic song from my all time favourite videogame. Check it out :-)
Artwork by: Spire III (find him on deviantart)

[@danielwatson7386]

Majora's mask is one of -if not - the greatest pieces of art of all time.

[@CPNTT]

It is unbridled creativity and genius that have given birth to this fucking game. It's a choir made of the minds of extremely talented and extremely imaginative people. And goddamnit you can feel it in every pixel. Never had a video game ever spoken about mortality, hope, tears, joy, laughter and adventure that way. Few other works across all media had. Majora's Mask is one of humanity's greatest work and I don't even think I'm exaggerating. It's that fucking good.

[@muntathar9851]

​@@CPNTTthe main reason is that the devs made everything quickly and didn't filter down the story like in oot but with this nintendo tapped into a bizzare territory of creativity being the main thing of their game which is something that they unfortunately saw as an embarrassment and didn't keep or even go near it in the next zelda titles You can just see that in the 3ds remake

[@jeromejerome7401]

Top tier childhood memories that's for sure.

[@danielwatson7386]

@CPNTT a worthy title to be put in the library of Congress.

[@Weldedhodag]

don't treat it like Nightmare before christmas within its genres and themes its one of the greatest, but outside of that, not so much

[@kneelanddonnelly4077]

This music fits so perfectly for the sadness and despair in the world. Recently played Majoras mask and it just reminded me of what the world is today. What i would give to go back in time. To the good old days of switchin on the N64 and see the title screen pop up, when putting my name in was the hardest part.

[@TigerTabCat1]

I feel the same

[@scourgescourge4202]

The flow of time is cruel, it’s speed seems different for each person but no one can change it, a thing that does not change with time is a memory of younger days- Sheik

[@poliwhirlking]

I wish I could go back to the days of me playing OoT, aLttP, BotW, WW, and Hyrule Warriors not realizing they would end at some point. Back when I would play Minish Cap and Spongebob Battle for Bikini Bottom on my brother's GBA. Man I wish I could go back to when the world was a safer place.

[@alejandroguevarajr.2275]

I love this, the ticking clock in the background adds more to the feeling of dread and the fact that time is of the essence, or everything that was there will soon be perished by a terrible fate

[@denverwalker5723]

This is the best arrangement of this song I've heard. Well done.

[@hyruleorchestra4339]

Denver Walker Thank you very much 😊

I was about to comment that, but you did. Best one of oath to order.

[@scottduncan6036]

This song is so depressing it got me thinking of my past thank you

[@dragonrand100audiobook]

There are few renditions of this song that match the quality oft of those by Rozen and Theophany, but this is definitely one of them. I just wish it were longer.

[@michaelbread5906]

Perfect length. They knew how to use what they came with.

"Swamp, mountain, ocean, canyon... the four who are there, bring them here!"

[@redacted2012]

This piece that was done made me want to fire up the old N64 again. I was able to do it, and play Majora's Mask. As I was playing, I had all the memories, the nostalgia of me as a young kid playing this game. Playing Legend's of Zelda. Trying to stop that Moon from hitting the town. Trying to get the "Four that are there." To bring them here. You didn't play Legends of Zelda, and not have it have an affect on you growing up. Simply put, for me they were the best games I ever played, and I'm so grateful to have played them.

[@merutm3843]

Depression strikes... so much pain... damn.. if only we can go back..

[@Shinobi-sann]

The world is ending, time is ticking, there is nothing we could do to stop... unless....

[@Duhemsounds]

You've put some emotions in the orchestrations and these haunting choirs + the clock ticking, great ambiance :)

I checked what would happen out of curiosity. Also passed the last 5 min to see what would happen... They make sad noises when they fall 🥺

[@Anonymous_Individual]

I never really realized how badass a name the oath to order really is.

[@boringambivert999]

I'm having chills omg

[@dartacancoronel3314]

I think the best compliment I can say to your work is that it is so good that it would be worthy to be in the game

[@hyruleorchestra4339]

That is an amazing compliment and means so much to me!!! Thank you :-)

[@onyourleft7465]

Your videos have consistently given me chills

[@prestone.3698]

Oh my! I like the more ominous feel these version takes! Awesome!

[@poliwhirlking]

This is a masterpiece.

[@GeneralChrisGaming]

The clock ticking... The ticking brings back old memories of the past while the music...it makes me wish I've done some things differently...

[@axeldenault1165]

Keep up the amazing work!

[@Tellempos]

Beautiful, and damn it man... you're giving me to many ideas!!! Im still comeing up with the rough sketch.

[@hyruleorchestra4339]

That's great. I'm happy that my arrangements inspire you that much :-)

[@enterfusion]

Beautiful.... and sad...... awesome work. Thanks

[@jorge30123]

thank you. keep up all the the awesome job dude.

[@hyruleorchestra4339]

Thanks mate! I'll try my best :-)

[@vulpinepanther2001]

I'd be remiss if I didn't tell you that this might be the best version of this song. At the very least the best instrumental version. A lot of remixes are technically incredible and sweeping scores, but seem almost exclusively move away from what makes the original song so incredibly haunting. They're good songs in their own right, but they're not really "Oath to Order" anymore. This one stays faithful while enhancing it. The ticking clock is an incredible addition.

[@hyruleorchestra4339]

thank you so much!! 🙂

[@tanisha-9423]

this is amazing ❤️

[@user-nt9cz6ei2l]

the real world needs the four giants now more than ever

[@majinsawdust64]

The nostalgic vibes this is giving off makes me tear up.

[@officialpierluk]

the weight of that clock given the context from the game is just even more emotional

[@Abbie_ohno]

Just to let you know this and all of your songs sound like sound tracks to a movie while song of storms sounds like the trailer, I love it (new subscriber added )

[@alexgaytan9236]

Imagine if they brought back Termina for a future Zelda installment, and this song was playing in some trailer teasing it.

[@michaelbread5906]

Take a deep breath if you can when you can amd enjoy it. Everything ends.

[@vibesisback]

This is what I feel like loseing in a battle

[@Farmdude07]

This is going to be everywhere on the last day of 2021

[@lornaong5606]

Ok Now The Artwork Is Very Dark And Looks Like Something That Will Come Out Of A Horror Game Also The Moon Is So Much More Bigger And The Skies Are Dark Which Would Be True If Something Like This Happens In Real Life And The Moon Looks Much More Creepy Its Nightmare Fuel For Me Even The Theme It Just has A Dark Feeling Atleast In This Remix

[@poliwhirlking]

I kinda wish Majora's Mask didn't have the 3 day time limit that you have to reset. Because then I would love this game way more.

When Nintendo remakes this game this will be the trailer music

[@Despotic_Waffle]

they already remade it, it turned out bad, they should keep it as it was in the original and not try

[@Strikadelic1]

Yea I don’t like the 3ds version because I played the original growing up. Maybe in the far future they’ll make a good remaster.

[@Weldedhodag]

the remake was both good and bad. Overall it was a mediocre remaster. They should go for the Metroid Zero Mission, where they make the game way better with its flaws but still keep the original spirit in tact (it isn't a fair comparison because Metroid 1 was dogshit, and Zero mission was an objective improvement in almost every way)

[@darthknightwingphoenix2081]

@@Strikadelic1 what makes the remake worse than the original? It's the only version of the game I've ever played, so I don't know the differences. But I think it was amazing, and it certainly made me understand why the game is such a classic.

[@smashlimeblogspot1]

@@darthknightwingphoenix2081 i believe it's mainly the controls, overall slower speed of movement, and graphics that people don't like, but I'm not too sure about the criticisms as I like both versions of the game.

[@HyruleWanderer]

Could you please tell me which software did you use to arrange this? I'm literally crying at this and i want to learn how to make something like that. By the way, Majora's Mask is my favorite Zelda game and you brought some good old memories to me. Thank you a lot!

[@hyruleorchestra4339]

Thank you very much! :-) I used Cubase and a bunch of VST Instruments. Mainly stuff from Native Instruments, Best Service Ethno World, East West and 8Dio. This way of making music is called Midi Composing. All the best :-)

[@MarvelMaster]

Hm nice remakes on your channel...and it looks like you put much work into video ideas and editing too :D

I think I finally figured out what the center of the triforce is…. Compassion! Link never received love or compassion throughout the majority of the games Zelda never got to experience any compassion from her father Ganondorf and his tribe never received any compassion or empathy from the people of Hyrule

[@QuaestorL]

It's beautiful, great work, honestly... Is there a 10 hours version of this? Because god damn, i could hear this all day...

[@Strikadelic1]

I think this was sort of sampled in a song called Tourist by DJ Khaled the piano sounds the same maybe they were inspired by majoras mask lol

[@hyruleorchestra4339]

Had a listen....yeah you're right....melody is somewhat similar.....maybe it was inspired by it :-)

Hey mate, thank you so much!!! I produced it in Cubase (don't know how much you know about that stuff - it's basically a music composing and producing software). Made everything with sample based virtual instruments. The boy you hear singing is a playable patch from Best Service. :-)

CloudyMindMusic yup I rushed it I'll go back and add your link properly soon. Thanks for allowing it. :)

[@Strikadelic1]

CloudyMindMusic you know the video I made was the first thing that came to mind when I heard this by you. I just saw/felt destruction and no hope while listening. And that feeling reminded me of the matrix/saints row (even majoras mask is kind of like the matrix world) so the plot for SR4 played in my mind and I really wanted to make it a visual for others too see. It's not my talent or anything but I have this directors mindset I like sharing my visions lol. Hope you understand, you and koji kondo are legendary for this lol
