Twilight princess is far from my favorite Zelda game, but this piece still resonates with me after all these years since playing it for the first and last time. It's so simple but works so well and is just perfect for this part of the game. It's usually the simple pieces that end up sticking with me I think, and it's ALWAYS the simple pieces that let me get super creative with a cover arrangement idea. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that this may be the most creative I've gotten with a cover since Corridors of Time or Easton Kingdom.
After I laid down the clean parts in the middle with that nifty little tremolo effect, I was about to start doing my usual "look I can do blues/jazz stuff too" dance when an idea occurred to me: this would probably be incredible with a sax here. Luckily for me, I'm friends with the immensely talented insaneintherainmusic who not only laid down a spectacular lead for the clean part, but even had an idea for the post-metal trem picking part after it. He even put up with me asking questions about trying to mix sax with metal like an idiot. Seriously, go check out his channel if you like incredibly well-done sax-oriented jazz type stuff.

Speaking of mixing, I also tried to step up my game with my mixing and mastering; I hope you can tell. Special thanks to MaximumHamburgers for feedback and pointing me in the right direction since I have no fuckin idea what I'm doing. Go check out his channels as well; he's got a solo channel as well as his band channel (Tetrimino VG Band):

Supertron Trioscapes
jrtakesthesky27 I normally kinda discourage redirecting people to other artists on my videos, but I fully endorse promotion of Trioscapes. So fucking good.
RichaadEB Yeah but
Why discourage that? Just wondering.
Psylo Productions Well, I'm gonna be a transparent jerk here but...
most smaller (and a lot of bigger) RUclipsrs / artists like me are that way. It's cuz we just barely managed to get some attention on our video after working our asses off to produce it, then other commenters (wanting to share the love) unintentionally redirect people AWAY from our channel. There's no harm intended and it probably does minimal amounts to begin with, but in my mind I'm thinking "c'mon, they're already established musicians or artists. They already have all the love in the world. Let people familiarize themselves with me for a bit before sending them off elsewhere." Sharing other artists is amazing and encouraged but, like... just try to avoid it in the channel comments if you can help it.
However, Trioscapes are fucking amazing and horrendously underrated so I don't care a whole lot.
That progressive take on Midna's lament is truly awesome, you really got me when insaneintherainmusic came in with the sax. Fantastic work guys !
is sexy metal a genre yet
because after this song, it should be
***** wanna make out
RichaadEB this goes without saying
"Sexy metal"
uuuuh . . .
I'm sure japan has something for you . . .
*feels sick*
ugh, Japan you . . . you make a lot of good, but jesus
and the worst part is PEOPLE WANT IT.
I still come back to this AT LEAST weekly and it continues to slap me in the face with nostalgia. so good.
I always come back too, this version is the best
Fighting against time to save the twilight princess. Oh how i love to run about hyrule field just listening to this.
At the point the saxophone came in with the tremolo/vibrato guitar in the background, it sounded almost like Pink Floyd's "Money". Nice!
***** Definitely what I was going for!
Best thing I've heard in a long time. Major props to both of you!

The saxophone part really complemented the rest of the arrangement- it was perfect!
Listened to this a thousand times, still getting goosebumps at 3:35
Thank you, Rich
How can this have only 232k views? It's such a masterpiece
Great man! I really like how eery the part from 0:00 to 0:50 sounds... The clean guitar, delay, the cool double guitar backing track. Awesome!
Midna for the soul
I wasn't expecting the Sax and Guitar to go together so well but my god, it was amazing.
+Matt Graham Sax'll go with just about anything. After all, it's one letter away from sex and comes in every shape and range imaginable. Who doesn't like all kinds of crazy sex?
This very well might be my new favorite from you. Great work my friend! Also Carlos you are amazing.
ToxicxEternity he is p qt tbh
Every time I think I've got a favorite of your's, I end up finding another ... this is spectacular.
I was just thinking the same thing lol. I don't know how I missed this one! It's fucking perfect!
This is seriously amazing. Rich, you continue to outdo yourself. And yes, Progressive post-metal fusion is one of my favorite genres.
Ace Waters Dude, we gottaaaaaa start the progressive post neo-80s spacefolk band with boozy and da boys.
Get your ass out here. The moment we get you out in Oregon, the world will never be the same.
Oh damn
Best cover of Midna's Lament hands down, you guys made it sound more heartbreaking than it already was. Your lead playing is amazing as always (really enjoyed the solo towards the end) and when the sax came in it hit me right in the soul
This isn't just phenomenal for a video game music cover, this is phenomenal for any form of music. This arrangement is fantastic
Warning: Consult your doctor before listening to this song.
Side effects may include:
Eargasm
Shortness of breath
The inclination to shout, "F*ck yeah!"
The desire to headbang or move in general
Listen at your own risk.
you forgot goosebumps lol
Groomple
lol, yeah XD
XD
I cannot contain my "fuck yeah"
Dang, guys, this is the best arrangement of this piece I've ever heard. I really like those rattly guitar chords behind the sax. I'M IN LOVE, BUT HOW WILL I CHOOSE??
boozinwalsh POLYAMORY
RichaadEB harem it up
***** We'll get you in there and make it a..... guitarem.
Oh. My. God. When those sweeps came in my jaw dropped.
I tweeted this video to Peanut Butter Gamer. Evidently he's watched a few of your videos today after seeing this and he really likes them. Just thought you'd like to know :)
+SquishyTheTitan This Guy and PBG would be the best of friends
Cool beans bro
Never did I think that a saxophone would contrast well with this brutal metal. You've done it again Rich, you've taken an already really emotional song, and not only make it into hardcore metal, but you've also made it into this beautiful masterpiece. Especially that part at 3:37. And Carlos did such an amazing job for this too. I think I can surely say that you're the best video game cover artist on the internet, Rich. Not exaggerating even slightly.
Christian Richardson
Sax metal is now my favorite music.
I can't believe how well that came out.
Check out Tesserract, one of their songs contains the sax and its amazing.
Where there is music there is always some intensity, however, Richard takes it to a whole new level.
I didn't expect a collab between you and Carlos to happen but it's amazing! The part Carlos plays is so sexy and your playing is stunning Richaad!
megalomania29 Thanks!
Good Goddess Hylia!!!
Fucking chills down my spine, dude
Man this is sounding insanely good! Best Midna's Lament cover ever!
I can't even express in words how amazing this sounded
there is now liquid running from my ears, and it isn't blood
BillyTheBard11th I think that's meningitis m8
Freaking gorgeous, and the sax really worked in there well. Expressive af my liege
This so epic. It should be played in the back ground of all slow motion epic battles. This is going straight into my likes playlist.
Wow, this is Good. Outstanding bass line. All the transitions are silky smooth. Sax guy nailed it, staccato reverb so retro yet fits nicely. This is my new fave. The entire arrangement is glorious! I WANT MOAR.
I read the title as being a "Metal Cover". I was not expecting saxophone, but it was absolutely gorgeous.
Within the first 20 seconds I got chills down my spine. The tone you set here is perfect.
This is one of the few songs I've been listening for over 5 years and didn't get tired of. Here is to 5 more!
Absolutely beautiful Rich. Not only is it one of my favorite themes from the game, you managed to recreate both the calming yet at the same time tense mood that I felt when I played that part along with the epic heaviness and OMG THAT WAS AN AMAZING SOLO FROM INSANE HE'S GOTTEN SO MUCH BETTER. 10/10 pls love me.
Damn... Such a powerful transition from that sax part. Made me feel things ya know ;) freakin great stuff man
This is one of if not my favorite song from that game and you played it beautifully
Damn dudes, that was smooth. It gets beautiful and runs into double and halftime feels while still maintaining the powerful foundation throughout. That was just awesome man.
Metal isn't really my thing but this... This works!
I can remember I was a little sad -crying like a baby- while I was playing this part of the game... Hearing this... the feels... come again...
Man this is sick, I have heard Midna's Lament covers before but, this one is just so damn creative!!!
Yay, we have downloads - I could easily pass this off as as not-video game music
ToadProductionINC Glad you think so. I try to put my own spin on covers and make them unique, so hearing that is a big compliment :)
Man that part at 5:17 to 5:28 is still my favorite lick you've done in any of your rearrangements. Still til this day
Without any exaggeration, this is hands down one of the best, if not THE best, LoZ covers I have ever heard, and it's from one of my favorite songs in the franchise. That saxophone part blends in so well, and when it meshes with the distorted guitars it just builds up that tension so well, only to be resolved beautifully by the end of it. Very well done!
Also, some of those guitar lines really reminded me of Between The Buried And Me!
Alberto Perez Thanks! I do indeed draw a shit ton of influence from them :)
RichaadEB No wonder! Haha keep up the good work dude; I've checked out some of your other work here on RUclips and I will definitely be following!
This sounds like Fallujah, and it's so awesome.
this is probably the best cover of this song because of these 2 guys teaming up like this
I've always loved how smooth my man's is with his guitar playing. I would have no one else help the classic Zelda tracks we all know and love turn into pure works of metal art.
That was a great cover! The saxophone was a very cool addition.
This song never fails to move me, but your cover knocks it out of the park... Really great work!
the sax just goes in
Dude. I always listen to this and remember the journey they go through how they inevitably get separated and the way the song ends really hammers that sadness home.
may god have mercy on us all... that just blew my mind, ridiculously good. worked so well.
"Also progessive post-metal is your new favorite genre" pretty much the truth
SaxBro absolutely murders it on this track. Your work's awesome as always but the sexophone was a very happy surprise
You guys ever heard Way Of the Mystic? The tone of that song and the way the instruments just mesh together in the more intense parts in such a beautiful way is really similar to it.
That said, this is freaking amazing.
this sax is just so great, fucking beautiful. Congrats, this is absolutely awesome. That is a masterpiece dude
Don't you tells me what my favorite genre is! Exquisite job fellas. Let the sea of ladies flood your rooms.
I see how it is...
Best Midna's Lament cover ever.
Dann Link, after all this time I have watched so many of these covers. This is now in a tie for first with flowering nights.
Such amazing arrangement and the combination with the sax worked out perfectly
Way to take one of my favorite tracks ever and, a-and....MAKE IT FREAKING AWESOME AS ALL HECK!!!!! Great job to you and insaneintherainmusic!
the sax is so
Oh man, this is so good. And that saxophone is amazing.
Pyrobug0 carlos is a babe
This is so good! Loved how the sax was mixed in.
Awesome.
This is really good :o Like, really really good.
I didn't think metal would work well with this because the song was like, meant for piano. Yet, here we are, it captures the emotion and pure epic feel of the original
Your stuff just keeps getting better and better!
Oh damn! That ending solo!!! :D Sick arrangement man! Carlos was a real nice touch. Both of your styles mixed so well! Perfect you two!!!!
Damn, I love how your arrangement fits so perfectly with the sax! Seeing you shreddin' this solo at the end is so intense! Love it, awesome cover!
INCREDIBLE
This song is like a shower beer: hot, cold, mellow and sweet.
I swear man, this is insane! You're my idol for playing the guitar, awesome stuff man! This is one of my favorite songs ever from a video game and you absolutely nailed it!
***** Thanks man, glad you think so! I really wanted to do this one right :)
Holy crap that was insane. It sounded so good it healed my shitty hearing, then you kicked it up around the end undoing your miracle with such amazing metalness XD Seriously though this was great Rich !!!
I bet you listen to a lot of Between the Buried and Me.
+MadDongTannen never heard of em ;)
+RichaadEB What about Opeth?
+Wendell Campbell He's kidding. Look at his vids, he has covers of them towards the start of the channel.
+MadDongTannen WAS I THE ONLY ONE TO SING: "I can't hear a thing" at the beginning?
@@raitoxote no sir
Your slower stuff is always really nice man. It's weird being calmed by metal, but I really dig it.
I love this.
the SAX brings this to 11 honestly both of you are fantastic musicians!
That haunting intro was sublime... I think I broke the Like button on my comp.
Gorgeous...
Oh hell yes!
Holy fuck this is heavy. Your overall sound is improving so much every video. Keep this up, dude!
This is the first cover of yours I have heard, and I must say, I've fallen in love :D
Alakazam318 Happy to hear it!
I only just heard of you today, but I absolutely love your work. This captures the emotion that the song portrays perfectly. Keep it up! You're amazing!!
bloody amazing! i keep on listening to this over and over.
The first half gives me some Metroid Metal vibes. Excellent!
That sax part rich
***** thank insaneintherainmusic for that!
Remind what you did with uncharted worlds from Mass Effect. Great job buddy, as always!
WOAH I was not expecting this! Nicely done!
when that golden instrument played,i liked the video in an instant
Amazing as usual . It kinda looks like your cover of suicide mission at the beginning.
You re the best Richaad
Those guitar sounds... they strongly remind me of some tracks form the DBZ Budokai Tankaichi series. And, well, that's gladly appreciated!
And of course the whole song is a great cover of an unforgettable classic! Great job!
This is like that Techno Future Metal Noir. I love it. :D
thank you cause this THIS IS PERFECTION
Dude You Always post the literal best covers.
The sax reminds me of Calabi-Yau by TesseracT. Was that the kind of vibe you were going for? Amazing! Best cover of this song ever!
OdnetninAdlez Haven't listened to a whole lot of TesseracT, was going more a combination of Agalloch, M83, and Pink Floyd with that section. Glad you enjoyed it!
+OdnetninAdlez tesseract rep
Absolutely stunning! Amazing work here you two!
The sax ended up fitting your arrangement style way better than I initially thought it would. But that's Rain for ya.
Some dude in the comments said this was their favourite cover of yours... It's definitely up there.
