Legend of Zelda's Saria Song as a jazz piano piece!!

Early in the morning hours I was inspired to write this piece in one sitting when I was listening to Saria's Song in my head and suddenly realized that the main melodic motif is a 3-note repeating figure, which is characteristically similar to the "ragtime riff", which creates a polyrhythmic through grouping straight 8ths in 3. After this realization a ragtime version of Saria's Song started playing in my head, and by the time I started running through a solo on the progression I knew this was something I needed to write down. Hopefully there are others who are interested in this concept as much as I was in writing it. There are a large number of solos in the middle section that are on top of the original chord progression, which is mostly original material but in line with jazz interpretations of standards (that is, almost adding more new things than retaining the old through solo sections). I tried to make sure that the original concept of it being based around the catchy Saria's Song was kept, so there is later section where the original song is quoted more bluntly and somewhat humorously. `

  • @Savais im not saying this is a mix, the dubstep ones are pretty much mixes

  • @thetev1s While liking dubstep, there's little doubt that quite a lot more musical competence is needed to create such a "remix" (I'd rather call it version, though). This is not mixing, this is completely revisiting a piece

  • Because dubstep remixes are too mainstream :D awesome job, though

  • @EricJDuarte You can find it on pianostreet.

  • Never mind. Found it on pianostreet.

  • Pokemans is good
