Through the eons, through the ages,
Through the chapters and the pages,
I travel across the beginning and the end,
Time my foe,
Time my friend.
With my sword and the Tri,
I'll save the land,
Or everyone will die.


Presenting my new studio upgrade: Symphonic Orchestra Platinum! Piloted by my most popular series, "Zelda MPS V - The Master of Time."

If you don't want to have the themes spoiled, STOP READING NOW. It kicks off with a solo Cello (The sound patch is incredibly beautiful and realistic, the Temple of Time theme, it felt as if I was actually playing it o.o), which then develops into my own short chamber string section (about 12 string instruments). Then... after a timpini roll, the fanfare plays the introduction to one of the most popular video game themes of alltime, the Overworld Theme! It progresses onwards, flute ornaments, timpanis and many other things to listen out for. Then, calming down and introducing the Metal percussion of the orchestra... Enter the windmill theme! Finally, raging back into the main theme, it climaxes then introduces an original section, with the string section (the string sounds are just beyond incredible in terms of realism), led by one of my favourite instruments... The Cor Anglais (Also known as the English Horn!) To Finish, the flute finishes what the cello started ;3

Final thoughts on the new upgrades... I've still got work to do in articulating the instruments playing techniques. The samples are real, no doubt about that, I just need to research a little more into the technique. Sections of the song are loose, some will notice. That's one disadvantage of trying to play everything live and having slightly different audio latency. But it'll get ironed out as I get used to the new stuff.

Enjoy everyone!

I was just listening to Orcarina remixes on ZREO just now, too. :0

Fantastic work. Totally brings you in the mood. Starts out all soft and gentle, then becomes heroic as if Link was standing on a hill, then charged down it towards Ganon's castle.

At least, that's the image I had in my head. :0

Well it's awesome!
Starts like an orchestra then busts into marching band then back to a very very soft melody. You my friend have caught my attention.

EtherealMog Says:

Some of the best composing I have heard from you, the vocals alongside the melody are awesome!
Probably what's best here is the fact the music sounds like Legend of Zelda material, yet has that Fox Amoore touch that increases how good it is. My favourite part would be the Windmill Song, that is awesome for two reasons; one the section is breathtaking, and two in Ocarina of Time that was required to reach one of the dungeons and to get it involved much time travel, therefore it is suiting to the name Master of Time! The Song of Time as a finale is too grand to sum up in words, it is the icing on the cake so to speak and is a brilliant end to an epic piece! Very well done! Keep up the grand work!!
