Zelda - Dark World orchestrated with Zelda theme encore

[HKEJ93]

An orchestrated arrangement of the Star Fox or the F-Zero soundtrack, and I will die a happy man.

[thedragoonknight]

Oh god, I second the guy who suggested Hidden Mountain and Forest.

[NoPRoBLeMtr]

LONGER VERSION PLEASEEEE, BEG U !

[metroidball]

You should make a longer/looping version if you can. This shit is amazing.

[doomrider7]

PLEASE do hidden mountain and forest.

[Toocay]

Awesome! =)

[Kilonoid]

HOLY BALLS THAT IS POWERFUL! I THINK THAT MUSICAL PART IN MY BRAIN JUST EXPLODED...

[DrBowserPepper]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWW­WWWWWWWWWWWW YEAHH

[brian152876]

This is an amazing arrangement! Wow, you are truly talented my friend!

[ryu157]

EPIC! ^^

[TheMarinePlanet]

this reminds me of soul calibur

[thewolflord94]

This almost sounds like it should be in one of those old WWII newsreels. Damn fine work!

[jikili]

EPIC!

[thecheesedude1]

WHY IS THIS SO EPIC

[nailstorm]

Better than the 25th anniversary cd

[nintendoprofessor94]

this freaking teabaged ma ears!

[mutehero7]

lol @ the tags. wut.

[jkira69]

i was hoping you could do hyrule fields. From Twilight princess or OoT is fine. I love you

[Khiash]

aaaand subscribed

[Baryonyx89]

A lot of your orchestrated Zelda music rivals the actual 25th Anniversary concert music. Great job! =D

[SODEMO2007]

Best Zelda game ever made. Deal with it.

[UnholyGenocide]

@SODEMO2007 Agreed.

[Vaari90]

I daresay this is as good as the one performed in the 25th Anniversary Medley.

[WhitenedInk]

WHY DOES EVERYTHING HAVE TO BE SO GOOD?! Not that I'm complaining...

[SaharaBryant]

I don't understand how anyone could not like this. Maybe they didn't like that it was too short? You should make extended versions of your music-- it doesn't matter if you just repeat them 2 or 3 times. I want to hear this stuff for a good 4 to 6 minutes without having to hit the replay button! :D

[s4msam]

G-O-O-S-E-B-U-M-P-S.

[keoni29]

@RAJTeunis You don't understand. I mean this version!

[Blademaster066]

And again... Bandgasm

[DeltaAlphaX]

You know something? When I see great artists like you, I truly believe that there is something extraordinary about you. I LOVE the composition of these works, the feel of the song is truly present - you can almost touch the atmosphere it creates. You've taken music at it's finest and refined it to such an extent that us mere mortals can do no more than gawk in amazement.

And I really, really envy you.

Seriously.

You need to teach people.

Charge money, lots of money!!

[Flemnghsz]

Subbed so mudda-fakking hard.

[germanyteresa]

great!impresionante la mejor

[bobby2643]

Nintendo: Let's abandon this system for the awesome 64!

SNES: *plays theme*

Nintendo: Oh well, we'll give you a farewell party...

[Thor599]

Win.

[keoni29]

Wait this is NOT in a zelda game?

[RAJTeunis]

@keoni29 No it is! It's in A Link to the Past!

[meximaya]

I've always wanted to hear this song with this degree of epicness...and you have captured it

[SzinDragon]

I have heard many orchestrations of this song (my favorite song in the entire Zelda song library), and yours is by far one of the best I've ever heard. Ever.

If you ever have the chance, an orchestration of the Dark Mountain Forest Theme would be ungodly awesome.

[pokemoneinstein]

You should do something from Fire Emblem, you've got AMAZING music here!

[Towerofhera]

All of sudden doing my homework starts to feel like the most important thing ever!

[SollaceLux]

OH, hey Dummeh! Would it be even possible for you to do a orchestrated Shuric Scan? Look it up! ;]

[bobby2643]

I just unsubscribed and did what I should have done long ago. Unsubscribe Annoying Orange. (cause seriously, it is just annoying for real now)

[ANightSkye]

Stone Tower Temple? It's a good one!

[CharryChuCinder12]

Do you think you could do the Clock Town theme from Majoea's Mask?

[hermanessences]

This is awesome! So you used Fruity Loops to make this? Maybe I should starting using it myself... All these plugins you've described, are they free, or how much did they cost?

[dummeh]

@hermanessences Thanks - glad you liked it. FL Studio was used for sequencing with this piece along with Kontakt to load all the samples. The plugins themselves aren't free unfortunately (they run up to around $5000) and some of them are private libraries that aren't commercially available. If you're a little tight on budget I'd recommend checking out Albion, EWQL Silver edition or GPO. There's also some free soundfonts available but they are a little lacking in quality.

[hermanessences]

@dummeh Thanks man! :D

[Dkoji]

@dummeh This is amazing, I have been so happy that someone out there is making some good music. I need to know how you did this. I am going to be buying ProjectSAM tools soon and I need to know how this was done.

[zeldamariehale09]

Simply beautiful. :)

[ANightSkye]

excellent work!

[Animal00Kaiser]

Have you guys tried he POKEMON themes? If not please do! You guys are great!

[dummeh]

@Animal00Kaiser I've not tried any pokemon stuff yet. Thanks, glad you like my stuff (it's just me, by the way)

[Bespinben]

@dummeh Oooh I'd subscribe in a heart beat if you start doing music from Pokémon games!

[MaddietheCattie]

@dummeh If I might suggest Ho-oh's theme, if you're wanting to try some Pokemon? Ho-oh's theme is pretty badass... Something I would love to hear orchestrated, too.

[TheEternalMercy]

This is amazing. Truly great...!!

[SkyFeline]

This sounds like it belongs in Soul Calibur...

Just giving you guys a friendly suggestion :3

[sickiteo1]

The Holy Trinity dislikes this video, because it makes them look bad.

[doubleoxm]

I don't know how you do it! I mean, I thought instrumental music can only be portray by humans, but you can just make it full of feelings with just...okay I don't know what you do with it heh. PLEASE PLEASE CINTINUW TO MAKE MORE SONGS ITS REALLLY AWESOME. (Y) Can you do Tsubasa Chronicles mix?? THEIR SONG IS REALLY NICE.

[2IBbristol]

Any chance you could orchestrate the Hyrule Castle theme from Link to the Past?

[juicyjuicejosh]

thanks so much for listening your equipment (friends)

[EvilZombieClown]

I came.

[Johnburton10]

You're awesome! If you do not mind by asking, could you teach me to do that?

[dalektaliban]

3 people didnt pick up the mirror and stayed as bunnies

[Devr0ss]

Frigin fantstic, I hop eyou are a much sought after musician

[Roxen40meep]

YOU PEOPLE ARE AWESOME.

YOU ARE GODS!

[dummeh]

@Roxen40meep It's just one person, me. I make all this stuff by myself in my spare time.

[Roxen40meep]

@dummeh okay.. Hold on, what?

[dummeh]

@Roxen40meep This channel and the stuff on it is just created by me by myself

[Roxen40meep]

@dummeh Okay, THEN YOU ARE A GOD!

[AllmightyLuigi]

@dummeh Your arrangements are awesome! No chance I can use part of this for a video? I'll give full credit to you and put a link to your work orfourse :)

[dummeh]

@AllmightyLuigi Sure, feel free to use it in a video

[AllmightyLuigi]

@dummeh Thank you :)

[01MewIchigo]

@dummeh so you record one instrument at a time then combine them all together??? 

[dummeh]

@01MewIchigo It's all virtual, no real instruments played - all samples

[01MewIchigo]

@dummeh oooooh i get it now! thats cool! >w<

[rovinglycan]

@Roxen40meep Welcome to the world of midi-files, loops and recordings. In this world, a single man and a computer can make sounds as epic as the one you just heard.

[Roxen40meep]

@rovinglycan I no understand...... Are you telling me that there was no orchestra used in this? MAN I'M TWELVE AND I HAD NO IDEA SUCH TECHNOLOGY WAS EVEN POSSIBLE

[rovinglycan]

@Roxen40meep Dummeh will most likely correct me if I am wrong. There are sound-banks available, some are free, others cost exurberent amounts. These sound-banks contain thousands of notes, from different instruments. There are programs available that can edit these sounds to create most preferable sounds.

By looping, editing and multi-tracking, it is possible to do just about anything.

[Roxen40meep]

@rovinglycan Weird!

[JosephAS1]

@Roxen40meep lol ftw :)

[TheNattak]

Very nice, could be much longer, especially for a classical piece.

[sickiteo1]

How do you do this? I MUST know!

[SuperCarlosbarron]

You sir are a Genius. I tried to compose seome music myself and I just get really lost and end up making a sucky song

[sageofwinds]

Whoever disliked this were owned by Ganon.

[NinoAngelo94]

wow thank you for the list of sound libraries, its so hard to build the perfect library and you demonstrate all them all very well...

[LJonesy2]

Actually, instead of making this piece longer, im wondering dummeh if you can consider making versions which can loop/repeat?

[jumbie135]

I LUV THIS SO HARD IT WOULD BE AWESOME IF YOU COULD MAKE IT LONGER :D

[Xhroud]

It sounds so mystical!

[IanTheCameraGuy]

This gives me a great idea of what this song would sound like in a real orchestra. I would love to hear this live you have a good ear for arranging music.

[JunkDiesel]

This is my favorite piece of all Zelda soundtracks. It was since I heard it for the first time over 15 years ago and still is. I stumbled upon a very lot of interpretations, orchestrations and remixes. But THIS... oh my god. This is so glorious, so amazing, so epic. It took my breath away. If they ever include this piece as a reprise in another Zelda title, I hope with all my heart they hear this and beg you to do a longer version of it.

[JoshuaCagandahan]

Sounds like something out of Soul Calibur...only better.

[Rollthebuddah]

Just got smashed by a wall of nostalgia.

[soraroxas365]

OH MY GOSH!! This is just... I can't find words to describe it!! X'D

[Mrpinkflips]

I think this is the single best song in all the zelda games. For me, anyway. :)

[ghostgunner11]

you make John Williams look like shit

nice job !!!

[Rkmajora]

@ghostgunner11 that's uncalled for

[etoangfavoriteko]

Reminds me of "Legend of Mana" instead of Zelda

[neverdie5enzocasal]

Just to let you know.. I had to add this to my Zelda playlist. It's so awesome.

[ORIGINALTHOTK]

Koji Kondo made it good... You my friend made it better. This is wonderful.

[weaponEX]

Amazing! It sounds very realistic. Your varied range of software really pays off!

If you have time to answer a quick question, I'm wondering if ALL the brass here is coming from Cinebrass or is it heavily mixed and matched with the Symphobia libraries?

[Princevegeta77]

this was perfect. 

[zandvlootje]

wtf? reactions

[KiNeTiCLigHtEnInG]

awwwwww yeeeeeaaaaaah

[northstar2x]

It's so epic it makes me wanna cry.

[RobinB84]

INCREDIBLE!!!! Period.

[Swidhelm]

You are my hero! I've done a version of various zelda tracks with EWQLSO Silver, but this is amazing!

[Okikurmi]

If they remade ALttP and had the entire soundtrack orchestrated like this by this guy, it would be me new favourite game of all time.

[iyasaekki]

You sir, just reset the bar for "epic".

It'd be awesome if you did Hyrule Castle's theme (watch?v=JbJbYFyklTg). Most of the remixes don't have the richness or sample quality of your arrangements.

[dummylegacy]

Have you ever thought of working or helping with Zelda Reorchestrated? :D

[cet0708]

I never noticed how much this sounds like some of the battle music from Shining Force 1/2.

[lylxion]

you, sir, are a musical god

[mikeonthecomputer]

Super Meat Boy would have orgasmic music like this.

[HordaRural]

you should work on the next Super Smash Bros. game... seriously!

[jespana10]

Awesome orchestration. It would be nice to see the complete orchestrated version.

It would be nice if Nintendo allowed this to be in one of its games.

Well done dummeh.

[Jayhawker30]

Link faces the chaotic netherworld, Master in hand, as he embarks on the final and most difficult leg of his journey yet.

[Emberlite14]

this is great ^^

would you mind if I used this for a movie i was planning on making please?

I would be sure to give u credit ^^

[BlueJay22Astro]

Zelda is already done in Orchestra...  BUT I STILL LIKE THIS

[atomickid]

:put Frantically zelda 3 in his snes:

Need..... Play..... some.. ZELDA !

I'm not nuts ...

[featheredice]

If it is not too much trouble can you do the FFX hymn of the faith plz

[TheMongobruder]

Do more of zelda orchestration, you could easily get the best zelda orchestra composer on youtube. Seriously.

[featheredice]

This music makes me wish I had played zelda...

[KaneAmaroq]

@featheredice

...How the fuck have you not played Zelda before? There's so many damn games for it. Ocarina of Time is a must.

[featheredice]

@KaneAmaroq

...Ok then where can i get a Zelda ocarina of time, disc and for what platform?

[KaneAmaroq]

@featheredice

...You must be 12 or something, if you don't know this. It's on the N64, in a Cartridge. You can get it with an Emulator now, or on the Wii Market.

[featheredice]

@KaneAmaroq

You're calling me twelve because i don't know everything about a kids game...

That makes sense.

[KaneAmaroq]

@featheredice

You don't need to know everything about it to know that it's on the N64. I don't know anyone other than children who don't know something as basic as that. It's pretty common knowledge.

[featheredice]

@KaneAmaroq

So you're saying that if i went up to a random person on the street and asked them what console Zelda Ocarina of time was for they would answer without hesitation...

[KaneAmaroq]

@featheredice

Anyone who gamed at all and had some semblance of a childhood? Most likely.

[dummeh]

@ubergrau Thanks Olivier. Glad to hear your feedback as always. I accidentally stuck it in the humour category and hadn't realised ;D. Popped it in Gaming where it belongs now

[ubergrau]

@dummeh Well, my feedback was not really elaborated... I should write something more explanative.

But I've been following your musical work for the past two years and the improvements are remarkable. Your work has increased in intensity and quality, plus you've shown you are exceptionally versatile with music genres (electronic, pop, orchestral, story telling) with programmation, web design, interface design etc. Are you only one person? Hahah.

Keep up the fantastic work mister Blake!!

[atomickid]

it gaves me shivers !

[1119king]

I love you dummeh. <3

[DoppioEspresso]

I BEG OF YOU!!!! DO THE REST OF THE ZELDAS!!!

[0639243]

Orchestrate something from the FFVIII soundtrack (if you havent done so already)

[SirPeanut95]

Goose-bumps much?..

[lozmanpie]

My life is now......*sniff*.....awesomifi­ed

[igotsmoshedify]

well we all know now that there are 2 COD low lives that watched this video.

[joethemarshmallow]

*shivers* all the win... *shivers*

[fleaboy498]

gave me chills

[MrTomahawk901]

Amazing. . . nuff said

[Yepitsme82]

This arrangement definitely has potential to be expanded into more epicness. I say go for it!

[RonRonRonWeasIey]

Do you think you could maybe do "Midna's Lament" from Twilight Princess? I just think that song is wonderful. Well it all depends on how you think it would sound.

[RonRonRonWeasIey]

Holy shit this is epic.. I'm the type of person who gets all emotional at orchestra music.. this made me cry.. this is amazing... haha

[Moppy1988]

do Crash Bandicoot

[freakomation]

U should do an orchestra/ symphony version of skrillex's scary monsters and nice sprites:).

[english1d1]

GAAAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHH..... omg omg omg.... im so sorry but i seemed to have just nerded everywhere!

[ThisIsFeNiX]

wow, have you heard of zreomusic?? its a site that reorchestrates nothing but zelda music!!!

[hokieMV]

are you going to do some other LoZ music?

[SollaceLux]

Do you take requests? ._.

[Somberlain85]

Amazing, just wish there were more

[LainaLain]

You've got some serious orchestra firepower over there.

[masterofhobbiton]

Subscribed about 15 seconds in. :P

[GreatHylianKing]

Ok, I'm gettin' tingles...

[TimWest612]

This is amazing!!!!

please say you have sheet music...

[PointsofData]

Like someone before, I came for the nyan cat, but stayed for...everything else. You have earned my sub. I would say feel special, but honestly I feel special to be able to sub and listen to this stuff for free. Thank you. <3

[Aleolex]

I'm.... Just speechless. This literally took my breath away...

[xpgamer7]

I keep getting a Star Fox vibe.

[TheWulfMaster]

Amazing. Always the first word that comes into my head when I hear these.

[johnizzle725]

Only negative thing I can say is... TOO SHORT! This amazingness needs to continue and fulfill all my fanboy dreams! But seriously this was awesome :D

[darkx602]

This is a million times better than the one in Brawl!

[pixcalcis]

the dark world song in brawl was probably the biggest disappointment for me soundtrack-wise. This was not one. :-D

[AziyadeRaqs]

I'm with everyone else -- you're just brilliant !

[h4cks]

I came for the nyan cat, but stayed for the epic. I've probably watched about a dozen of your pieces in a row now, and I must say, you are very seriously talented. I'm going to email bomb some movie studios on your behalf. You deserve to have this music on the big screen sir.

[flyingemu27]

You are diving into a realm of music that has always had a strong place in the hearts of many. You're taking what was already highly esteemed by fans across the world, and breathing new life into it, freeing various masterpieces in a transcendence that raises them higher than ever before into the glorious position they has always deserved. You, sir, are the champion of all video game fans far and wide. Thank you.

[rocksiepwnz]

Uber goosebumps at 1:11. God damn this was one of the best Zelda games ever.

[AmiliusOne]

holy shit i think i just came

[robeast91]

Goosebumps to the max. I think I might cry.

[Darkforrest408]

One of my favorite themes. +1 for bringing back childhood memories. 

[deathballad]

Please do the Light World Dungeon please. <3

[calveras86]

MAH BOI!

[KaitosTH]

Nyan Cat Orchastrate and Flight of Robotnik Medley was 10000x better than this piece tbh

[twilightdumbass]

I give it 38 billions stars.
