Wind Waker - Earth & Wind Gods' Harmony

Game - The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
System - Nintendo GameCube, Nintendo Wii U
Songs - Earth God's Lyric, Wind God's Aria, Staff Credits (Wind Waker Theme)
Couldn't find a decent mash-up/mix/etc of Earth God's Lyric and Wind God's Aria from Wind Waker... so I decided to make my own. Adjusted the tempo on Earth God's Lyric to match Wind God's Aria's tempo, and tried to make the transition between the two as seamless as possible by following the time signatures. I decided to add the Wind Waker Theme in for good measure and for comparison.
This is the second version of this video. I decided to polish the mash-up and match the BPM of all three songs and make the transitions more in-time with the beat. I'm fully satisfied with this version. Hopefully everyone enjoys this as much as I do.

Years later, I look back and see the staggering number of views I have on this relatively low effort video, and I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, I'm very happy so many people enjoyed this little thing I put out into the ether, even if it took a minimal amount of effort. On the other hand, I sure wish I had nearly this many views on my other content! I hope people will check out my stuff on my other channel, share it with friends, and subscribe!

Nice mix! So one checks your channel, and sees not much. It seems you either deleted content or gave up; If you get joy out of making music, keep at it and post it.

I played Wind Waker on GameCube when I was between 6-7, I remember so much from this game. The countless hours sailing, not knowing what to do but it made it a real adventure, I did it and this game has given me a childhood. Going to the Earth and Wind Temple's made me seek adventure in real life, and I have sought it. The music, the atmosphere, the story and overall, the nostalgic value I hold within my heart is huge. I remember it was a fall day, I went to defeat Ganon and did, as I departed the game, I felt a part of me leave with it once the credits rolled. Being 19 now, it is easily one of my favorite games of all time, and is something more than a game to me, but my childhood curiosities.

I want to say, I have no real nostalgic connection to this game beyond the legend of zelda generally. I didn't play the original when I was young, and while I played the sequels on the DS, I only went back to wind waker when I was much older and it didn't really grab me. However, this song, these songs have tugged at something deep within me. Not out of the emotions evoked through their connections to the game proper, but by their strength as music Independent from any other art form, the music itself is what moves me, and it moves me a great deal. It was only recently that I learned what part of the game these melodies came from outside the end credits, and it lead me here. This thing you've made makes me intensely happy. and for that, I thank you.

The timeline that Wind Waker exists in is quite bleak and dark: Ganondorf returned and there was no Hero to stop him so the only solution the gods of Hyrule could come up with was to send a cataclysmic rain to hinder Ganon’s ambitions. It’s ironic how the bright colors of the game graphics and upbeat nature of the soundtrack contrasts the watery apocalyptic state of the world. What little left of humanity there is struggles to survive atop islands in a sea that provides no fish or sustenance. However there was always hope that a better future was achievable and that’s what this song perfectly encapsulates.

Recently got a Wii U wind waker edition to just get a few last things before the eShop shuts down. I've obviously been playing this game a lot, because it came with the console, and the only similar thing I've played was a bit of spirit tracks on my 2ds. Otherwise, nah. I'm currently 13… and let me tell you, I have been having a blast. It's just such a great game (except for some a bit questionable things, like not being able to freely roam the ocean until the moment you reach tree haven, at which point all constraints are cut). Either way, it's just great. I haven't even owned the thing for more than a week and I've just built a bond to all these characters. Seeing link conduct his wind waker together with Makar and Fado playing on their funny leaf instruments, same with Medli and Laruto, is just so special to me. Hell, I've barely had any knowledge of this game except for a few things I learned through my now-dead brother a few years back, and also that one pirate ship smash stage that I never liked as much as the train one. Getting back on track now, I only just realised (like 10 minutes ago, when I first watched the scene with Makar and Fado) that the two songs are actually the title theme, I just had to check, if there was some sort of mashup, and sure enough there is.
