Hey wow, no offense but I went into this expecting the worst. There's a certain hubris that a lot of "I enhanced the soundtrack to this classic game" people have. This is absolutely not that! This is so incredibly well done. Every track really captures what made the originals so good and helps it shine.

[@kiyoaki1985]

I agree with the sentiment. A lot of "remixes" and "enhancements" go overboard with instruments and very often throw in a pointless bridge section or guitar solo or something. I want to hear the songs as they are, maybe with different instrumentation or a few effects, but no changes to the melody, this does that pretty well.

[@SLDNW101]

I had the same worry that was immediately put to rest. This is both very faithful to the source material and wonderful of its own accord.

It's a bitter sweet joy listening to the music. Brings back certain memories of my teenage years. Especially the time of 1997 when I was 14. That was the time you could see the comet Hale-Bopp in the sky. I played this game with a friend I went to school with. We had no instructions or guide about the game hence it came as a surprise when we thought we had beaten the game but it suddenly turned into the Dark World. We played a lot of games at that time. Zelda, Secret of Mana and the Street Fighter II series were our favorites. These games are adventurous, touching - and from a nostalgic perspective that I have now - touching in a verry personal way . At the beginning of 1998 my friend moved away and we never saw each other again. Now 23 years have past and every now and then I wonder how he did in life, where's he at right now... So every now and then I look up stuff like this video on KZbin and bathe in memories.

[@HailSocialite]

I hope you find your friend someday!

[@miked172]

I'm the same exact way. I played this with a good friend at his house. I was only 13 in 1997 though. And yeah we played all the different versions of Street Fighter II too. Only in my case, I'm the one who moved out of the state. I visited him every so often but joined the military when I was 18. I last saw him was when I visited in 2004.

[@OtterloopB]

Sometimes you forget that amongst all the vitriol, trying to get the top comment by being as snarky and clever as possible, and the belittling, dehumanizing, graceless arguing... That many of the comments on KZbin are from broken, hurting people... each with their own pains and stories. What a revelation it could be if we would all remember and treat one another with grace... Here's hoping that someday, you can reconcile with your friend. I can think of a few people I pray that God would let me reconcile with someday too.

I disliked Link Between Worlds just aping the Ocarina of Time Soundtrack into its moments. I really felt like the OST for Link to the Past was unique to its own tone, and vice versa. Trying to mix them together cheapens the feel (even if lore-wise, they take place in same universe, different timelines).

When I was five, I suffered a really bad concussion that left me in the hospital for a few days. A year or so later, I was contacted by a medical school for cognitive testing, where they would assess how early head trauma affected brain development. I had no idea why at the time (and for the record, my only lasting damage was regular migraines), but they would give me $50 for doing it. After the first test, my mom took me to Toys'R'Us and told me I could pick any game I wanted. I could barely read, but a gold box with a battered sword and shield caught my eye. That was my choice, and to this day, A Link to the Past is still one of my top five games of all time. Thank you for this musical update!

Nowadays the vast majority of fans agree in giving Ocarina of Time the position of the best Zelda game of all time. However I am not in that select group, for me, at the age of 12, from the moment I turned on the SNES with the prologue, reading in my barely understandable English (as you can see it's not my native language) and starting with that rain scene, it became the best game that my eyes had ever seen. Of course Zelda evolved and has had great games, but in my heart this will always be the best of all, for its charisma, music, charm, difficulty and story. Actualmente la gran mayoría de fans está de acuerdo en otorgarle a Ocarina of Time el puesto del mejor juego de Zelda de todos los tiempos. Sin embargo yo no estoy en ese selecto grupo, para mi, a la edad de 12 años, desde el momento en que encendí la SNES con el prólogo, leyendo en mi apenas entendible inglés (como ven no es mi lengua natal) y comenzando con esa escena de lluvia se convirtió en el mejor juego que habían visto mis ojos. Desde luego Zelda evolucionó y ha tenido grandes juegos, pero en mi corazón éste será siempre el mejor de todos, por su carisma, música, encanto, dificultad e historia.

I actually teared up when I heard Zelda begin. I grew up with Link to the Past, since my family is poor and we only ever had the old SNES. So that Zelda, that Princess Zelda was *My* Zelda. And to hear her theme like this... it’s something I can’t quite describe.

I come from a French Canadian family and this was the only game we could find on the SNES where the whole game would be in french. (other games had language options but they came much later).

I messed around with it a bit as a younger kid, but finally as a younger teen buckled down and committed to beating it, which I eventually did. It was easy to feel like nobody as a kid. When you played this game, though, you were important, you were a hero (especially to a girl), and you mattered.

[@LyraniaLothar]

Be honest, this is what we heard when we first played the game.

[@jfiffl7]

You do realize this is Not the Original.

[@austinharn6341]

What do you mean? This is what I still hear when I play this game.

[@DoubleOSevan]

This sounds just like how I remember... oh nostalgia, you silly thing *sheds a tear*

[@Kire667]

You've done a great job with this. If I ever get back to messing around with RPG Maker XV Ace to recreate the Zelda games reimagined I will definitely listen to this for inspiration.

[@Pichustrikesback]

23:33 The music that always pops up in my mind when I'm in a forested area and see wild rabbits and squirrels roaming around!

[@Creatoremagico]

I am so glad you didn't skip over Silly Pink Rabbit. It only turns up in this tiny section of the game and I don't think I have ever heard it in any other Zelda game either. This whole album is wonderfully done, thank you so much for sharing it!

[@Wyrmnacht]

Such a huge part of my childhood was delving into games like LTTP. The nostalgia I feel from hearing this kind of stuff is so powerful it leaves me in goose bumps, thank you so much for this. A million times, thank you!!!! Also, that Zelda 2 Town theme is outstanding!!

[@claytonwright2416]

25:38 and 35:28 - *Sigh* such memories washing over me right now. I'm almost in tears. I loved that time in my childhood. I borrowed Zelda 3 from two of my best friends, brothers who were so busy with music and other activities that they did not play Nintendo very much. But they made a good allowance on cutting grass and other chores, they usually bought a lot of good games for SNES. I played Zelda 3 so much. I admit, I even cheated with the Super Game Genie. But it was SO much fun. The music will always be a favorite part of the Zelda games for me.

[@danielr5343]

Subbed in the first 30 seconds of playback. I'm speechless about how good this is. Keep it up, yo!

[@listnode]

The whistle/flute type instrument in credits is incredibly well done. Also, not paying attention to the description and such, I thought this was an official remake of the soundtrack. Speaks to the quality of it for sure.

[@zangetsu1614]

Here is one of my all time favorite videogame theme ever. I literally skipped directly to dark golden land theme, and i can say without a doubt this is the best rendition i've heard of it. It's to the point, no extra stuff added, no weird instruments, no tempo variations. It's like listerning directly to the game in instrumental form. This. Is. Freaking. Perfect.

[@RenoCocoa]

I also directly skipped to that theme and got instantly disappointed. While it sounds amazing in its own rights it just lacked the oomph that the original had, which was one of the main selling points to me. I could bop my head to the beat and hum to the melody. Here the beat just feels watered down in comparison due to the weaker drums.

First appearance of Zelda's Lullaby: 7:35

[@wolfmanAl]

I love this so much! Great job! The "Guardians" piece still gets my adrenaline pumping after almost 30 years.

[@SMALLSandJOE]

This is shockingly phenomenal. I love it so much, you did a fantastic job :) Kakariko Village theme always brings me close to tears, this cover was no exception. And I cannot get over how great the Dark Golden World cover here is too! Feels amazing. I don't think I can give this enough praise in just one comment. Well done. I'm beyond happy that this exists. Also, I've come back to this video so many times, I'm surprised I'm just now commenting lol!

[@MrBond-xs3cr]

Dude this is INSANELY good. I have never subbed so quickly.

[@franbigorra5928]

I can remember... I rented this game when I was 5 or 6, as the Knight'ish feeling of the cover got me. Most probably my dad was member of that videoclub because I recall having it rented for a long while (maybe I just played until my eyes burnt and I was told to stop, too). I knew nothing about english language back then. I managed to get to the dark world before he had to return the cartridge. Played the game again when I was ~16. Had to translate some dialogues to get to dark world, but managed to finish the game. Man... it felt good, like I completed an achievement for life itself. We did not care for graphics nor realistic moves, we just had fun with our friends in original stories and new places, and shared our tricks to get past dungeons. I miss this simpler times.

[@danielocheita7576]

Finally someone that understands the oomph in the Hyrule Castle music

[@TheCheeseslice9]

40:46 One of the best moments of life was beating A link to the past. Couldn't finish as a kid and went back as an adult to finish it. This song here will always remind me to stay the course, it can take some time but it can be done.

[@fattyjaybird7505]

I could never beat "The Adventures of Link"... last boss always got me 🫤 This game was mind blowing when it came out, i remember hearing about it, im pretty sure i bought it right when it came out. There was sooo much to it, never played anything like it. Never heard cymbals utilized in video game music as this... great music!

[@dr.c7679]

So iconic and timeless. Kudos to that composition team. Just listening to this refills all my hearts.

[@Tanookicatoon]

YO THREE YEARS LATER AND I JUST REALIZED THERES COMMENTARY IN THE SUBTITLES

[@AKS9]

Thanks for mentioning it!

[@laylover7621]

I was convinced after hearing Hyrule Field that this is nothing short of incredible.

[@palmpilot304]

This is absolutely great. This is probably what the developers would have wanted the music to sound like, had technological limitations not been in place.

[@HyruleOrphan]

This is absolutely stunning. If I didn't know any better I would think these are just uncompressed songs straight out of Nintendo.

[@ce-xiv1334]

Just found this! Fire my guy! Some gameplay footage in the background would have been dope, although I don't know if you would have got in trouble.

[@Zerethn]

If you'd like to hear the music with gameplay footage/sfx I had recorded a playthrough with the tracks modded in. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nIPVmoyqlN-se9Usi=LHKUvs5CQxrN0HDG

[@odg1190]

You know it's good when on most of the soundtrack you question if they actually remastered anything at all. The Prologue track I thought for sure was untouched until I pulled up the original and was blown away at how you managed to make it sound like the equivalent of getting water out of your ears This is so well made man I hope this lands you a good job.

The prologue could easily be a sum up song for my 90's childhood, full of SNES cartridges, playing in my brother's room, sitting on the floor in front of that small rounded-shaped TV
