I haven't been able to get Ocarina of Time out of my head lately. I've been playing so much Breath of the Wild. At this point, I have 100%'d both normal and master mode. Yes, that means all korok seeds too. It truly is my favorite game :'D It's been making me want to return to the game that started this whole personal love for the series (well this game and Link's Awakening). I didn't have enough time to make a full video for this week due to commissions, but I figured why not play around with the Ocarina of Time/Majora's Mask soundfont and make my own Ocarina Theme? I only had a few hours, but I decided to try and follow the philosophy that the Zelda 64 games followed when it came to playing a composing one of the themes. I'm pretty happy with what I got! Anyways, this is "I Made My Own Ocarina of Time Theme". I hope you enjoy!

You know it’s great when it sounds nostalgic
I'm not even nostalgic about the game, I'm nostalgic about 2009 me searching stuff on RUclips from that game I barely played!
@@EtheRenard Are you me? Are there more of me cuz I thought there was only one of me
@@Manas-co8wl samee
As someone who was not born when this game came out, and only got to playing it later (and by later I mean around 2017) even I can feel some sort of nostalgia from it, because I remember playing it when I was severely depressed, and used it as one of my many distraction tools to cope.
fr !
My brain is freaking out because it hears those sounds and is like "we know this song", but it's completely foreign
I started thinking of NiGHTS for a good second there, won't lie.
This is now called The Concert of Shade.
That's a fucking good one
I qas thinking ballad of winds, that sounds more like you're warping to an oot temple. Shade temple doesn't really sound like it fits.
@@softpaw6234 isn’t that an actual Legend of Zelda song though?
@@ceresthestarspinner4609 I believe you're thinking of ballad of the wind *fish*, which is from a completely different game.
@@softpaw6234 maybe. I just thought that was from windwaker.
This is legit the coolest thing I've seen in 2021
This is definitely up there with your content as some of the coolest things I've seen this year. (Had to reply to your comment because it warms my heart seeing content creators I enjoy supporting one another)
2023, still the coolest Zelda content I've seen on RUclips
Shady's song:
Lost wood woods
with this knowledge, do you by chance know when the heavy metal remix of wood wood is coming out? (also known as metal metal)
@@josiahf1041 You forgot wood woods middle stage evolution;
You catch a wild Wood wood, evolve it into a Rock Rock via level up, and finally it becomes Metal Metal when traded with a metal coat item (or metal cover if you will)
@@UnderworldArtist well of course, but its not available until the dlc update v6.9 is released, although i am getting excited for metal metal's mega form teased in the trailer (official name unreleased but i think its vibe vibe by the looks of it)
"A wild Wood Wood appears!"
The only thing it's missing is The Short Ocarina jingle that plays anytime you learn a song
...did you not watch the video? 5:34
@@Jojo2 It's been a while so I don't remember, but I think he meant this one ruclips.net/video/pT9fD5HgMC4/видео.html
@@Jojo2 that confirms you played the song right, I meant the Jingle that plays while link looks at the Ocarina as it Glows and it usually does a pan of the area
I see what youre referring to. When you learn zelda's lullaby, that happens, but not when you learn a temple song. Normal songs that dont teleport you do not have that same thing. They have what he recorded here.
What you're referring to happens and then that linked youtube jingle plays directly afterward.
@@something_nintendo my bad. It's been so long since I played I forgot about it
the first quote of the video is already golden, that's gonna be incredible
edit: sure was, especially the good guy leitmotif! it sounds extremely warm and cozy in OoT soundfont
This is great, it actually sounds like it could be an ocarina theme from the game. Good shit
6:47 I don't know why, but that leitmotif always brings nostalgia goosebumps whenever it comes up in something new you make
It sounds like undertale
Yes
Reminds me of the snowman theme from mother
Honestly, i have a video suggestion: how about a "corrupted hub" theme? Imagine the main villain takes over the game's hub world, twisting it into a dangerous lair filled with familiar, yet dangerous obstacles.
So, something like the Infected Crossroads from Hollow Knight?
@@lunarcod7187 more like corrupted Dirtmouth, but ye, that's the basic idea.
Spoilers
Hyrule castle?
@@everthon2457 if your talking about botw then that isn't a spoiler lol. If you're talking about another game then idk
@@colecube8251 ocarina of time
I loved this. I actually got chills listening to the full song.
The songs you enjoy making are the ones I like the best. Because you sound so happy when you talk about them.
Love this
(5:00) There’s actually a music term for when a minor piece ends with a major tonic chord:
Tierce de Picardie (aka Picardy 3rd)
i think it’s my favourite term just because it’s fun to say lol
Fun fact: "sforzando" is a musical term and it's pronounced as one word, not s forzando. The symbol for it is sfz just like in the logo, and it's kinda somewhere in between a dynamic and an articulation, and it's basically just saying to play that note loudly and fanfare-like
The more you know.
Glad I am not the only one who knows this!
Anyone else play hyperdiemension Neptunia Mk2 one of 5pb's moves is called Sforzando and an upgraded version called Rin Sforzando.
AKA... the last name of a character in a story I am writing.
Another fun fact: there is a term for when a song is written in a minor key but ends on a major 1. It's called a "Picardy Cadence" or more specifically raising the third is called a "Picardy Third"
Great video dude!
Ahhh it feels good to hear midi ocarina sound tones
YO WTF RUclips DIDNT RECOMMEND YOU IN MY FEED FOR LIKE 1 YEAR i forgot i needed your content in my life
I grew up playing Ocarina of Time. Hearing you break down the style of those in-game ocarina songs and make your own was cool and also gave me a few chills. Good work! I'd love to hear more OoT inspired songs from you.
As far as I'm aware the n64 was the first console which had it's sounds fully software driven. This means that theoretically there are no limitations to the music (except the samples can't be over 64kb or something like this).
But because many composer didn't want to make completely new sample libaries, they still used the old ones from the snes. The snes had a limitation of 8 channels (sound effects included). Thus the "style" of composing continued onto the n64 and composers still used only around 8 channels and tiny samples. This is also why the music sounds so alike in snes and n64 games: they used the same techniques and the same samples

Haven't watched yet, good video
Bro you make me fcking cry, all these sounds makes me so nostalgic):
I lost my 3DS OoT limited edition with the OoT game innit 3 years ago, i manage to buy another 3DS with the same edition but its not MY 3ds, bc i have that 3ds since it cames out, so all my hours progress, themes etc, so 10 years of my story, like photos etc that i lost, and this song of 6 seconds hit me hard, im looking forward for more songs with OoT sounds(:
(Srry 4 bad english btw)
Your English is fairly understandable... (I don't know if you used a translator, but it doesn't seem to be broken and hard to understand...)
> English is my first language...
How did you lose your 3DS?
oh my gosh that idea of putting player inputs at the beginning and that little "you did it" jingle is genius !!
I love the We’re all gonna be stars leitmotif at the end. Good stuff.
I suggested you do something like this many months ago lol. Glad to see you doing it!
OOT might be my favorite Zelda game so it’s great to see you doing this!
bROOO NOSTALGIA IM CURRENTLY TRANSITIONING BACK INTO MY ZELDA PHASE AND THIS IS GORGEOUS NHHHHJHGNJK-
HYAAAA
I love how you added in the section where the "player" and Link play the song, it's such a cool touch!
Could you please please please make more songs with these sound-files? The nostalgia hits are just so severe, I want more of that!
Awww, Shady, it really showed you had a lot of fun doing that video, your enthusiasm was tangible ! That melody really sounded like it could be part of the game, the little button pressing melody at the beginning was such a nice touch :'') It shows you love those games ahah !
Also yes yes yes, please do a full Majora Band track !! There's nothing I love more than video game musicians playing together, you'd do a fantastic job at making them harmonise :D
I would like to call this if Ura Zelda existed, the "Guiding of Light" and it takes you to the Temple of Light.
I love the instruments they used for ocarina of time and majoras mask. I love how they reused the sounds like it’s a very simple generic midi instrument sounds but it’s so catchy and nostalgic compared to any other Zelda OSTs. I wish Nintendo made a hero of time era zelda game with these same midi instrumental nostalgic sounds for the game… but honestly dude I’m so glad I found your video cause I just download this vst for my fl studio hehe.
OMG! Do more of these!!! This soundpack is gorgeous!
I think it was ALMOST perfect! In Ocarina of Time, the melody always plays "whole" with the accompaniment at the end, when you play it.
English is not my native language so I don’t know if I can explain it well, but in other words, I feel that when the piano starts, it would need to repeat once with the ocarina sound on top before jumping to the 2nd part of the melody. But the melody itself is perfect, almost indistinguishable from one in the original game! Amazing!
This might just be the happiest I've ever heard you in a video, Shady. Great stuff, glad you had fun with it.
Play this song in oot 64 and it takes you to an unfinished Sky Temple...
hey hi howdy shady! Just got the notif, and btw I’m glad you liked the drawing on stream I made :) I’m gonna make some even cooler ones now lol
This reminded me of the time I used to have a note book of self-made ocarina songs in a note book which I would play for the scarecrow at Lake Hylia. This brightened my day. Can't wait for attempt 2.
I was sold when i saw the video was a mix of zelda and music editing haha, this is awesome
The only time I've gotten to stop in on a stream was when you were collecting the final Korok seeds a few months back. It was a good time, I need to stop in more
This was great! If you can do this in only a few hours imagine what you can do when you have more time! I can't wait to see what your future holds!
Man, so nostalgic. Feels very Serenade of Water. I’d love to try this out some time. If you’re interested in a challenge, I’d be curious to see if you can manage to write an ocarina song where the main melody only uses the 5 available notes from the game.
This video was crazy fun to watch and to listen to. I dunno why hearing someone else geek out about zelda hyped me up so much, but I loved every second of this. Good work, man.
This sounds right at home among the other warp songs/special songs from OoT/MM
I think you should've tried to give it a name too!
When listening to the song it made me think of BoTW's huge open fields so if we were to "add" this song into OoT as a warp song I think it should take you to hyrule field, the most open place in the game
In order to name it, the established formula is: "Music genre + noun"
OoT used elements of the temples for its noun while MM went in a different route, choosing a noun that relates to the song itself
So since we are warping to a big open field I think "freedom" is a good choice
For the "Music Genre " I don't know much about music theory, so I was considering Aria, which comes from latin "Air" which could work thematically, but apparently Arias are made to be performed by one's voice, not an instrument
So I later found the Aubade, which is kinda like the sibling of the Serenade and contains elements relating to mornings and daybreak so a new day to explore a large field seems nice
So, thus I propose:
"The Aubade of Freedom"
This is so perfect and it sounds like a finished but cut song from the real game, great job!
But PLEASE!! That song NEEDS to have a B5 appended to the very end in the Harp 2 instrument, right at the end there! Please do that for me
You have no idea how absolutely breathtaking this is, thank you
That was dope dude, I have that soundfont and plugin but I haven't done a deep dive with them yet. Feeling inspired now.
Dude this was perfect
Man that was a great little composition, feels very kondo like and nostalgic!
It sounds so authentic!
The beautiful thing about this is that I feel like I know these melodies (the real attempt and also the 'fun' part after). I haven't played a lot of zelda yet, but it's strange how it all feels so familiar. Good job man, you aced it!
You probably have no shortage of confidence, but I still want to say that you are just really, REALLY talented. The way you're able to just piece things together like that, and have it sound exactly like it was taken from the game...and yes, I realize you used actual sounds from the game, but if I had access to that stuff, I'd have just made "Mary Had a Little Lamb" with horse neighs.
So anyway. Everyone needs affirmation, and I'm feeling sappy so I just wanted to say that your stuff makes me smile. I don't comment often, but I'm glad you're here! ❤️
Dude this is so good! Great job and actually well thought out, I really enjoy what you did with it!
I love that you connected Marins song with Malons singing.
Bapy shady gonna be very happy if he listen to this and know that shady himself who made this version.
Not only are you a super talented musician but you’re also a huge LOZ fan. You created something we musicians AND LOZ fans can appreciate. I’ve been currently rebeating OOT and this is amazing.
Cannot wait for the completion of the project!
You only seem to improve as time goes on.
Good stuff!
So I just want to say I also love legend of Zelda it also happens to be my favorite franchise and I just wanted to say you completely capture that iconic, nostalgic feeling that these games gave off. So I look forward to more great content like this. Thank god this was recommended to me randomly.
I LOVED this. I would watch a hundred more of these. Pressing those nostalgia AND novelty buttons at the same time.
You know it's music when you can hear it
That was pretty fun its been a while since I've been able to sit down and check my RUclips feed lots to watch and catch up on.
I really like this format!
After a year of watching your videos, I've finally gotten into making music myself. Since I'm very new (and very bad lol), I feel like a learn a lot just from watching your vids, and using your songs as inspiration.
Yeah, watching 8bit Music Theory, Adam Neely, and all those great channels explain broad musical concepts with specific examples is useful, but sometimes I find myself learning just as much, and getting inspired by, just watching you make music, or explain your thought process, even for silly little compositions like this one. Thanks :D
I got some serious chills with the final product WOW!!
This was awesome! Makes me think of a quiet mountain village - maybe a variant of Kakariko. My brain is now combining this theme and the OoT Kakariko theme and it's wonderful :D
You're giving me nostalgia for an OOT song that never existed. Good job!
Man, you're a genius. It sounds amazing. I'll be happy to listen to more of these in the future.
Wasps showed up to my room instead of cicadas :(
This was SUPER cool, I'd love to see more like this! Even if you could get ahold of the sound fonts for Wind Waker or another game in the series, I'd be super into that.
I would definitely love to see more attempts like this in the future :D
I got as much goosebumps from this than I do from any of the OOT or MM songs
The only experience I had with the notes in the Zelda series is Twilight Princess, but I still feel nostalgic! Great job again!
So legit. Really well done. And super cool to see the breakdown - it evolved so naturally.
This is great! Would fit right in OoT.
My only nitpick is that Ocarina songs can only start with the notes D F A B D in-game, but can use any other notes after the triggering line.
It's so wonderful to see people make incredible things, even without expensive formal training, and even moreso to see them hold a torch towards the things that brought them there. Shady's one of few youtubers that feel like real people; it's a privilege to watch you, sir 🙏😌 😎👌
Goosebumps my guy, as a Zelda fan myself I LOVE your Ocarina of time song!
This is dope, I really would like to hear more variations on possible songs with these tunes. This nostalgia makes me happy.
Hell yea! EZ way to get me to sub immediately with a vid like this. Big ups for the breakdown!
I found a detailed analysis on the composition of the game on danbruno's site and I'll definitely be doing this sometime this week. Keep up the great work!
Love these types of videos. I’’ hoping to get a better software for my channel’s content. Keep up the good work
when you played the finnished version, i litterally thought to myself.... "is...is this not actually in the game?" great job
If you played this and told me it was from OoT or Majora's Mask, I TOTALLY would have fell for it. Great job, Shady!
this needs a name
Dude this is freaking sick. Love everything you do but this is a wholly different level.
Shady, you mad lad! Amazing work yet again! And feels like we finally got that Warp song for the lost Wind Temple.
I’ve been using a Casio CTK-720 as a midi controller and general keyboard for years and a lot of the sound fonts built in to the keyboard (I’m fairly certain) sound almost identical to the instruments from OoT and MM. It’s a very classic midi feel and I recommend picking one up if you can and you enjoy that kind of aesthetic.
I was not expecting your theme at the end. But I loved it.
So beautiful and soothing! I really like it! In only one hour you managed to create such a beautiful music!!😄👍
Damn, that's interesting...
> 3:15 - 4:10 / 6:09 - 6:35 ---> Someone could use that in custom game they're making... (Not me because I lack a lot of skills to create my own game...)
> How are you going to 'link' these songs together?
You've played "The Nostalgia Warp"
Would you like to return to better times?
> Yes
> No
oh my God. I see myself noodling around at least some weeks. Thanks for the video and the information. :D
Wow that actually sounds really nice! I really feel like I wanna get my ocarina and learn your melody;)
WE NEED MORE OF THIS
outstanding job, shady, this made me actually tear up
You have no idea how much I enjoyed this!
I think I'm gonna refer to this one as Sacred Glade, or a warp song (of a different name) that take you to that location.
Thanks for getting this beautiful but non-canon OoT song stuck in my head, it's accurate to the originals and is just lovely to listen to ^-^
I would love to see more experiments with this. Your song sounded really beautiful.
Try the majora's mask instruments next please 😍
I love this so much, amazing job
link's awakening reference outta nowhere! made my day! one of these days i want to get my own ocarina to play the song referenced in the malon thing
it's even more vindicated when you remember Ballad of the Wind Fish was massacred in Majora's Mask
You know any notes will work for the scare crow;-) Cool that you did this:-)
This sounds amazing great work
wow, I really like that, you did a great job!! :0
Dude, you are amazing!!!
This is so fucking cool!!!
I have very limited software, as I do my music on a whole ass iphone, so listening to this stuff gives me inspiration and hope for this. Even though music isn't really a career I'm looking to, it's more of a fun hobby, it's still nice to learn and grow just from practice and stuff!
Oh boi, it sounds so cute and cool, calming, I'm dying, I love it 😭💕💕💕
Lovely tunes! Would be awesome to hear a long Zelda piece based on the Attempt 1 motif.
This is amazing!! Sounds exactly like it could be from the game!!
Would definitely love more of this
