Man, it's super hip to see you breaking down tunes like this. I run a studio that teaches private lessons and I have a degree in Jazz Studies, so I know these are some legit analyses! I grew up deep in Nintendo music and video game music in general, so I'm really glad a mate of mine shot me a link to your Final Fantasy VII breakdown. Plus, when you said Wind Waker was your main squeeze, I knew we could get along, haha!
@@forcepalmproductions9158 Depends on how much you want to get into it, and what part you want to get into. I myself am a music comp major at a University, because my dream is to write music for Nintendo games. But I don't know if you want to be a performer, composer, ethnomusicologist, music tech specialist, or just want to learn a bit about music as a hobby. There's a lot of options.
@@forcepalmproductions9158 Ok. Well then, if you’re interested in it more as a hobby, you could possibly minor in music. Also, How experienced are you? Have you already played in an orchestra in highschool? Have you taken private lessons? Even if you’re only interested in it as a hobby, the more skilled you are, the more opportunities you’ll have. I’d also do some research on orchestras in your area and see what skill level they’re looking for.
the sun song was taken from the morning theme actually. They wanted to associate the sun song with the morning theme, so they inserted the beginning of the morning theme into it.
I actually only just realized the Hyrule Field Main Theme and Morning Theme's "Sun's Song" notes are different. The repeated notes in the Hyrule Field Morning Theme are A-F-D (as with the actual ocarina song in the game), but in the Main Theme they're B-A-D.
Hoooooly shit dude you're a hero. This is amazing content. Legit theory makes me nut, and your analysis of why certain progressions were chosen is very insightful. You even show a score when you're talking about the music! This is the most interesting video I've seen in a very long time, and it's very clear that you put a lot of love into it. I hope you continue to make awesome videos like this!
@@mistadude I'm quite a bit late (so are you), but they meant nut as in to nut out, which is a (admittedly older) phrase meaning to freak out, in this context meaning having a meaning similar to fan-girling. It does not, I think, refer to the modern usage of nut as in to bust a nut.
Just when I thought there was nothing new to be said about Ocarina... Holy shit. I've been playing Zelda, learning its music and reading about it for 15 years. And you still blew my mind. My pointy, green hat is off to you, sir. :- )
I just want you to know that this is the ultimate niche channel and I'm so happy it exists. I'm actually learning a lot and it means so much to hear someone ennoble the art of gaming music through a level of analysis people usually reserve strictly for classical music, which I also love. So thank you, thank you, thank you!
wow, this is great! I love the analysis you've made, hope you have more on the way. As a note, sometimes the music is louder than your voice and that makes it hard to understand what you're saying.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the OOT Overworld's iconic transition into a more intense theme in the presence of enemies. The dynamic music was a great addition to the series.
Twilight Princess has always been my favorite soundtrack (and game overall) and it was so exciting to see how much DEPTH was put into that main theme. Great video!
Very creative idea for a video/channel. I enjoyed it quite a lot, it's not only enjoyable to compare/contrast music throughout the series but it's clear you're knowledgeable and passionate about the subject matter. I'm looking forward to seeing more from you.
It's great to see someone who actually knows music theory talking about video game music. Fantastic video! I expect this channel to grow rapidly once people discover it.
Speaking of Studio Ghibli, like you did at the end of your video, you should do an analysis overview of the music from famous Ghibli films! I would die with excitement over a video like that!
This is an incredible thing you have accomplished. Very well done. I've been wanting to understand why I've always loved this music since I was a kid playing the original Zeldas. I still love them to death and you nailed the Twilight Princess Theme: it absolutely felt more mature and darker than the predecessors. Especially after being worried that the series was gonna just go Wind Waker style (not that it was a bad game). Keep up this great work!
I love your stuff, man. I haven't done a music class since the ninth grade and, even though I can't fully understand all the terms you talk about, you still explain them well enough for me to get the gist of what you mean. Keep doing what you're doing, bro.
you made a great case for Twilight Princess’ overworld theme, but, I gotta say that musically, the epic that is OoT’s overworld theme just blows me away any time I boot up that game. thanks for a great vid!
As a person who majored in music in college and loves video games to death, I seriously cannot believe I'm only just now discovering you. You definitely earned my subscribe and I am looking forward to your content. I'll most certainly be showing my friends your channel. Amazing work you do on these. I'm totally binge watching lol. (Also, I really wish I had found you when I was doing music theory and composition in college. It would've been ridiculously helpful.) Keep up the great work! :D
Spot on, incredible. When you mentioned homage to the overworld dorian tone of lttp, i smiled. Much of my music theory i know now came to me through playing and analyzing zelda music.
Loving all these musical analysis videos! You cover some really cool stuff, and I love the comparisons you drew from all the Overworld themes and how they are similar and/or different. Honestly, while I'm sure an unpopular choice and one not even covered here, the Link's Awakening Overworld theme is probably my favorite, using the original, recognizable base theme and then expanding it with a slightly more sinister section that ends sounding victorious. It's amazing what people can do with beeps and boops! Twilight Princess would have to be a close second, though - love the music in that game!
I was really hoping to get some insights into Link's Awakening. The bridge was really cool. And then the ending is a Frankenstein monster of the overworld theme and Ballad of the Wind Fish. The Ballad of the Wind Fish is weirdly memorable in its own right.
The lack of Nier video surprise me, oh well it's still a year old :D I really glad i found you, i recently got hooked on sound and music design, and this just open my mind wider than ever about this topic. Many thanks
Epic video man! Would love more zelda stuff. And I love how you analyzed the parallels between the main themes and the games tones and role in the series as a whole. Usually that stuff seems like pointless overthinking, but I feel you nailed it! Awesome perspective on the Majoras Mask theme. I always wished it had more sections like it's predecessor, but not it makes sense. Keep it up!
Love this vid! Tal Tal Heights from Link's Awakening has always been the greatest version of the overworld tune for me - would have loved to see analysis of that one!
Same! And I'm even sadder that they didn't change it for the remake. It would've been the perfect opportunity to use live instruments and/or and orchestra and redo the soundtrack.
1. Termina field (Majora's Mask) 2. Hyrule field (Ocarina of Time) 3. Great Sea (Wind Waker) 4. Hyrule field (Twillight Princess) 5. Koholint (Link's Aweking) or Holodrum/Labrynna (Oracle of Seasons/Oracle of Ages) Is litarraly the same. 6. Hyrule field (Spirit Tracks) 7. World of the Ocean King (Phantom Hourglass)
10/10 saw ya on a friend's stream and you really did well explaining the interesting nuances between each game and it's music. I'm interested to see more of your vids! :]
Having been around since the Atari console and actual arcade heydays I'd have to say 8-bit graphics and sounds are unique. How awesome to have lived during this tech-fast evolving time. Sound generation has moved as fast as graphics but never gets treated the same. There was a time when all you could do is string bleeps and blops for sounds and music lol! Amazing evolution!
One of the best parts of TPs hyrule theme is the little “advantage theme” leitmotif. It plays during the times where you are damaging the boss and it’s an incredible shot of seratonin. It’s incorporated into the field theme so magically and provides a reflection of your victories while you’re exploring, as if to keep pushing you on
"Everybody knows the overworld theme of the original Legend of Zelda." I played this song once on my piano and in my whole family (counting cousins, uncles, grandmas, grandpas...) only my dad and my brother knew what i was playing.
11:28 "New Hyrule"? That's not New Hyrule, that is the Great Sea. New Hyrule is the place Link and Tetra discover in between Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks. Anyway, this is incredible for a first video! I can't wait to watch all of your newer videos now.
I played Twilight Princess too many times over the course of one summer and I never noticed that Piece of Heart in Hyrule Field. Oh my god. What life have I been living?
So I thought I should rewatch this video before watching your quartet for the Breath of the Wild. I thought it would be helpful for overall understanding. But then I remembered how 95% of what you say may as well be Elvish to my ears.
Supremely high-quality work. Keep it up :) (Since you asked, my favorite Zelda overworld themes are A Link to the Past (both Light and Dark), Link's Awakening (and the Oracles), and Majora's Mask. I'm a sucker for the original theme.
Awesome video. I know the focus on this was just the overworld themes, but it seems like there could be just so much stuff to unpack and analyze when it comes to Zelda games. Changes in theme from Kakariko villages for example, the 3 day Clock Town cycle progression in Majoras Mask, the overlapping themes from the Wind Waker credits. I agree that Twilight Princess had the best overall soundtrack, and so many themes were just so well done in that game. I love the ZREO rendition of that soundtrack.
Wind Waker is my favourite, too, and mostly because of the amazing soundtrack. My absolute favourite piece of Zelda music is the Phantom Ganon theme. The the way it reacts to Ganon's attack bouncing back and forth with the rising progression, and finishes off with a fanfare, gets me all giggly every time! ^.^ Now that I think about it further, the progression is a series of a high pitched orchestra hit for Link's swing followed by a "shrimp" in the bass line for Ganon's swing. High and low to represent light and dark, perhaps? That's cool!
Really love the interpretations of the style of music in relation to the game, especially connecting the drawn out Wind Waker melody to the openness of the world!!
Good analysis, and nice that you annotated corrections. Your technical knowledge of music is far superior to mine, but nice to see that we similarly "get" the intent. Music's weird in that fundamentally it's pure mathematics, but is designed to elicit pure emotion.
The Majora's Mask termina field theme was spooky enough that combined with anxiety over the time limit, I never dared to make much progress in the game
The journey Kondo takes us on for the Windwaker Overworld Ocean Theme is amazing. One of my favourite overworld themes ever. His melodies are great but his chord progressions are always outstanding.
Unspecified. It simply states there were 4 composers that worked on WW, including Kondo and Negata. My gut tells me it was Kondo that composed this piece. Look at his legendary body of work. He's completely capable of composing this piece. He's done epic chord progressions like this before. The same way I believe it's Kondo who composed Gusty Garden in Super Mario Galaxy. Even though that one is unspecified as well.
No way, this is your first video?! That's crazy. This felt like someone who had been making videos for ages!
wait...
THIS IS HIS FIRST VIDEO!?!?!?!
guitarskills2 i cant hear him! >_
Seriously???
nohat 1375 turn the sound up
Wait what?!
Gotta love this channel.

No, literally... It's a requirement!😁
I don’t really understand what I’m seeing, this isn’t made for a simple man.
Well then I didn’t expect to see this 3 years later. Love you guys
Gotta love yours too!!
Dude picked a channel idea and has stuck with it for 6 years. massive kudos bro. 10/10
Man, it's super hip to see you breaking down tunes like this. I run a studio that teaches private lessons and I have a degree in Jazz Studies, so I know these are some legit analyses!

Where do I start if I wanna get into music after high school?
@@forcepalmproductions9158
Depends on how much you want to get into it, and what part you want to get into.
I myself am a music comp major at a University, because my dream is to write music for Nintendo games.
But I don't know if you want to be a performer, composer, ethnomusicologist, music tech specialist, or just want to learn a bit about music as a hobby. There's a lot of options.
@@Galaxia_EX how about playing in an orchestra as a hobby (or multiple) somewhere in the winds department, like French horn, trumpet trombone region
@@forcepalmproductions9158
Ok. Well then, if you’re interested in it more as a hobby, you could possibly minor in music.
Also, How experienced are you? Have you already played in an orchestra in highschool? Have you taken private lessons? Even if you’re only interested in it as a hobby, the more skilled you are, the more opportunities you’ll have. I’d also do some research on orchestras in your area and see what skill level they’re looking for.
@@Galaxia_EX true. But exp like 10% I played in a drumline in high school. But that does nothing for playing winds I think
the deductions you make about the connections between the music and the game are just incredible!
I
I didn't realize
I didn't realize that that morning theme starts with the sun song
I am so shook
the sun song was taken from the morning theme actually. They wanted to associate the sun song with the morning theme, so they inserted the beginning of the morning theme into it.
I really don't want to be that guy but it didn't occur to me that some people didn't realize

The left hand of the Great Sea Theme looks like waves... that is awesome!
0:13 - 0:17
I've never seen a more accurate image of what Zelda II is, and it's in a video about music composition...
I understand about an 8th of what you are saying, still love the video though, zelda music is incredible!
We usually just call the 8th the octave
I was gonna make that joke but Bernie Sanders beat me to it.
thanks bernie
... DO DO *TCCH!*
An 8th bit?

8-bit Music Theory
: "all zelda overworld themes achieve the same thing"
Botw overworld theme: hold my beer.
Having been following you for some time now, it's impressive that the quality of your videos has always been 100%.
the chord progression at 5:35 is like a musical hug
I love how there are subtitles in a music analysis video. It's very thoughtful
The analysis from a musical perspective and how it correlates to each game's tone is spot on...and the nostalgia is real! Thanks for this!

Five years later and this is still one of the best music theory channels in all of RUclips.
Me before Honors Music Theory: I get none of this!
Me after Honors Music Theory: I get *most/some* of this!
Can you link (no pun intended) this course/poscast/youtube channel?
My favorite overworld theme is from Spirit Tracks
The last Channel. I second this
I third this.
Spirit Tracks has one of the best Zelda soundtracks.
Can I fourth this?
Exactly what I was thinking. The overworld track (slight pun intended) is so awesome, I'd even blow the train horn in accordance with the music.
The last Channel. 1. Sub to me
2. Like this comment
3. Reply done
4. I will sub back.
It's great to see someone who actually knows music theory talking about video game music. Fantastic video! I expect this channel to grow rapidly once people discover it.
Holy crap, the Dark World theme can be considered the "reverse" of the Light World theme. Interesting find!
Speaking of Studio Ghibli, like you did at the end of your video, you should do an analysis overview of the music from famous Ghibli films! I would die with excitement over a video like that!
Ohhh that's such a good idea! Joe Hisaishi is amazing
Where are thos analysis at?? If you dont want to do from a film, please use ni no kuni! I love the way you explain things

Same! And I'm even sadder that they didn't change it for the remake. It would've been the perfect opportunity to use live instruments and/or and orchestra and redo the soundtrack.

3. Great Sea (Wind Waker)
4. Hyrule field (Twillight Princess)
5. Koholint (Link's Aweking) or Holodrum/Labrynna (Oracle of Seasons/Oracle of Ages) Is litarraly the same.
6. Hyrule field (Spirit Tracks)
7. World of the Ocean King (Phantom Hourglass)
I can't say I'm musically savvy. But this was just so interesting to watch. I hope you do more in the future

The ten-plus melodic sections of the Ocarina theme are actually randomly ordered each time you enter Hyrule Field! Fun fact.
Bonus fun fact: Mick Gordon uses the same trick in his compositions for DOOM and Doom Eternal.
You really put effort into this, great job dude. Awesome video.
Having been around since the Atari console and actual arcade heydays I'd have to say 8-bit graphics and sounds are unique. How awesome to have lived during this tech-fast evolving time.
