I wanted this track to be really chill, as it's the only gentle piece within the whole soundtrack. The opening bars in my version are pulled from the FDS title theme. The melody in the 4 bars is overlaid over the same US counterpart that sounds similar to the Town theme. Now I've succeeded in porting over every unique characteristic from the Japanese version! By separating them and placing them in sequence, I feel the melody feels complete. The original town theme by itself always sounded to me like it started off already halfway through, but the Japanese FDS melody lets me build up to it organically.
The progression of this track highlights my general experience going through each of the first 7 towns in the game. The towns really help in portraying a lush and populated world. I imagine after the years of living in hiding from Ganon in the first game, it's encouraging to see all these settlements pop up and thrive. Everyone has Link to thank for being able to live normally, and some are eager to help, others a bit standoffish, and others are straight up spies of Ganon, which is why my track makes a brief dark turn in the middle. It's interesting that each town is almost like a one stop shop for Link to replenish health and magic, learn a new spell, and sword abilities, and also provides deeper lore among the surrounding areas. It's some pretty heavy lifting the game does through the towns.
For inspiration I took a lot of influence from not other Zelda town themes, but rather the Heroes of Might and Magic series. A lot of town themes in the various games have a really relaxing idyllic tone while still providing great character. I made an effort to utilize brass instruments in the forefront while still keeping the track cozy and relaxing. The strings section was particularly challenging, as I was pulling from 5 different libraries just to get the articulations I wanted.

The king is back in town
Such a nostalgic piece that I cannot help myself getting watery eyes
oh man the village theme is by far my favorite out of all videogame soundtracks
The timeless advice says "When all else fails, use fire". As usual Second Narrator delivered fire.
BotW link took that too seriously😂
@@MTKalem The various incarnations of Link have all gotten up to shenanigans over the decades. The Hero of the Wilds certainly takes it to a whole other level though. What a madlad.
Beautiful work as ever! On a side note, you've made me realize the degree to which this would have fit into a Pokemon or Dragon Quest game!
Impressive. Feeling chills all over my body.
Excelent orchestration. Wish I would know a lot about music to comment on this, but the mere description of your videos is more than enough to forget that and be two times more deligthed while hearing just by reading how and why you decided to approach each piece the way you did! Very nice and interesting, man.
I always love how you break down your thinking and method in the description. Really helps me out when I try and learn from your style. Amazing as always!
Definitely agree! It's like storytelling through the medium of sound, rather than through images or words or the like :)
The view count deserves to be _much_ higher than ~6,900. Your work is masterful. 🎶
You've got my sub!

Im very glad I found your videos recently, and here you post the next song on my favorite Zelda game. So exquisitely done, leaving quite an indelible impression.
I will wait anxiously to hear your orchestration of the house theme in the future. In the meantime, hope this finds you well And keep the adventure going
I like and look forward to this series!
Another absolute masterpiece. Your Zelda 2 tracks are just beautiful to listen to!

This has nice "Trading Town of Redmont" vibes from Ys: The Oath in Felghana.
Everybody gangsta until the people turn into bats.
