Bagu and the Riverman: An All-Zelda Chiptune House EP

It’s a rare thing that I’m involved in something so epicly adventurous as this EP. Featuring music inspired by Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (composed by Akito Nakatsuka), this Chiptune / House / Moobah / Electro album is five tracks of solid adventuring badassery. It’s particularly monumental for me, as it’s the first collection of remixes I’ve done without samples of in-game music. Legendary chiptune tracking was done by Spamtron, using renoise and modtracker. I handled the drum sequencing and mixing. The result are epic, dancable, and, most importantly, fun! Pick up the EP (5 tracks with 2 bonus tracks) over at Bandcamp for only 5 bucks.

The Zelda Sounds Collection

Stumbled Upon this website over the weekend. It’s put together by a fellow who calls himself HelpTheWretched. It’s a collection of Sound Effects, Samples and rips from a big collection of Zelda games. I recently grabbed some Link To The Past sounds for a beat I was working on. The sounds are all high-quality WAV files, kick ass. http://noproblo.dayjo.org/ZeldaSounds/

Shag – Flyule

I’m a big fan of hiphop, and Zelda, as it should come to no surprise for those famailar with some of my projects. Flyrule is a near-masterpiece to me. With MPC Style beat-chopping and a fresh take on the classic soundtrack, beat-maker Shag takes us to a Legend of Zelda we haven’t heard before.

This is a compilation of Zelda beats I’ve made over the past 6 months or so. This game defined my childhood. I spent countless hours surrounding myself in the game and it’s music, so it’s only natural that I pay homage to it in the best way I know how.
