Music Tuesday: Outset Island

Ahoy, Universe! Today we be talkin’ like talkin like pirates, so all aboard, and get ready for your Tuesday to get a bit more musical! Today, I have a special, long-overdue treat for you all! Finally, after months, and months… I have a ZeldaTunes to entertain you! I know it’s been ages, but I think this ZeldaTunes has been worth the wait!

It’s no secret I am a big fan of Wind Waker, and yet again, I find myself in awe, of some of what I think is the best Zelda music in the series. So, because of my love of adventure on the high seas, I have a special ZeldaTunes, an orchestration of Outset Island, and then a phenomenal 8-bit remix of one of Wind Waker’s most popular songs: Dragon Roost Island! To hear both of these, and have some fun, hit the jump!

After a hiatus I feel embarrassed about anytime somebody brings it up, I am back, and ready to make some ZeldaTunes! I am really, really pleased with my work on this. The looping isn’t too crazy, but I love the theme regardless. I had a lot of fun playing with various flutes, strings, and drums on this song, and I hope I got the gist of Outset Island! As I’m also a Pokémon fan, I love having a hometown where I can start my adventure, and Outset Island really gave me the same feeling! I hope you like it, and stay tuned for more!

As most of you readers know by now, I love the classic charm that is 8-bit. And Dragon Roost Island’s theme is one of the most memorable songs from Wind Waker. YouTube user CheezDude111 is amazing at 8-bit, and he has loads more Zelda 8-bit remixes on his channel, so I would advise, if you are a fellow 8-bit fan, checkin’ him out!
