Dragon Roost Island Orchestrated 

Over 11 years later and this is still I think my all time favorite remix of any Nintendo piece. I could listen to the part starting at 0:10 for the rest of my life and be happy. This remix literally screams adventure.

you know whats impressive about this arrangement is that it does more than just transcribe the music note for note to some classical instruments and call it an orchestration. You switched it up and gave it a really grand feel. You made the music your own.

I never really get nostalgic when I listen to this song because I think about it all the time, instead, I feel pure joy and happiness :)

The Wind Waker shows how beautiful music can be. The developers seemed to care and like this game a lot. Yet with their awesome masterpiece, haters just don't understand how good it is. All they care about is graphics, music, and content. However, I disagree with them. This is just a masterpiece. This is way better than Call of Duty or Gta. Not saying their bad, but this game is just way better. Some of the most beautiful pieces of music are in here. It is also home to some of the most memorable characters and some of the greatest graphics in gaming history! Wind Waker 4ever!

But... One fact stays true: EVERYTHING sounds more awesome in orchestra.

surfing on my Pokemon while listening to this ^.^

It's amazing how non-orchestrated it's just a peaceful island theme, yet when orchestrated it becomes the final fight for the world.

feel yourself lucky, I heard this on the radio last week

I think I played this game when I was like 8 or 9 first Zelda game I ever played. It was downright amazing from what I remember, and it still is! They did an AMAZING job with the music and sound.

Still listening to this shit 10 years later lmao.

Man this would be amazing as the ending theme in wind waker.

Back after over a decade

I feel like this music would play as link scales the outer areas of the cavern on his way to the top, fighting enemy after enemy to reach gohma

You just grabbed my favorite Wind Waker music and made it 10 times better!

I imagine hearing this music while sailing off the coast to some distant island in the Asian or Mediterranean regions

I still can't listen to this without tearing up.

Let's be honest, this is how we all heard it as kids.

Best Zelda song ever made

Definitely, I bet they loved that whole 'let's wait decades to tell the fans the timeline' thing ;D

I have to agree... I've spent ten years trying to quantify exactly how that song makes me feel... It's adventure, it's playful, it's teasing... It's the first real island you visit after Windfall. This song is a promise. It's your first real taste of the game, and it's promising you a grand adventure the likes of which you've never experienced before. It's alien, but at the same time, relatable. It gives you a feel for the Rito, a culture so different, yet so similar to our own. It's friendship.

Good sir, you are made of win, as are each of the members of this ensemble.

Holy hell this is an astounding arrange!

This is beautiful.

Why havent I heard the orchestra version of this before? My brain just melted...

I should listen to this while fighting Medoh

ONCE I HEARED THE EPICNESS I SCRIAMED WITH JOY!😵

True, this feels more like the Great Sea theme... It has the same sense of grand adventure that the Great Sea theme delivered so well.

i love this song so much! always thinking of this!

I think that's the point. He wasn't trying to recreate the same theme with the same mood, the original composer already did that perfectly. He wanted to use this theme to make a completely different kind of piece, and I think he's succeeded at that.

In confession, I stayed on Dragon Roost island and read through my textbooks to this song.

Funny, I am currently doing my math homework and listening to this. It's making my homework feel quite purposeful and adventurous.

In the game I always come back to Dragon Roost just to here this song

MORE... this is just amazing!

Esta genial esta version, me esperaba algo mas "normal" pero tiene un toque epico, quedo bastante bien, esta se va a mi coleccion =D

@TheClashmaker That was fantastic.. thank you.

Simply glorious. This makes we wanna grab the next boat and set sail to conquer the world. In my green pajamas.

you made this?! holy mother of sweet baby jesus! on a side note though, dragon root island in the background would've been more fitting than forsaken fortress xD

Hoooooolllllyy crap this is pure 100% concentrated awesome!

Checked out your other vids aswell, but this one made me subscribe ;) Really, really nostalgic and so darn good to listen to when writing :D.

Wow. This is really good.

@TheClashmaker Got goosebumps with those two combined haha. Omg I love this song so much

The defeat, was merely a delay. but the time after oblivion had opened. When the sons of Skyrim will spill there own blood. but no one wanted to believe... Believe they could exist, and when the truth finally dawned, it dawned in fire. but.... There's one they fear, In their tongue he is Dovahkiin, Dragonborn!

Sir, this needs many many more views. Anyway, please make more.

I love it! It sounded awesome

This your version is amazing man.

This sounds like some type of battle theme now. I find that pretty awesome. I've beaten the game already and it is amazing.

Pure awesomeness.

Oh my nostalgia overload, this is a masterpiece :)

The music Zelda come up with .... pure genius

Dude you are the Boss!

its the same with all the others sailing riding and hopping in a train that's why i love wind waker and spirit tracks because its something different.

I always find these always sound to regal. More like there is a city or castle town which although in its own merit it is great but kinda takes away from the vibe of the island if you think of Dragon roost itself.. Like to me this is a future dragon roost where you would pull up to the docs and walk through a town or market place before you get to the original building in the side of the mountain.

@TheClashmaker GENIUS!!!

Amazing!

Its amazing

This is EPIC.

I hope so man, took me ages to think of that stuff =P

i love this Vacation time!

wonderful truly wonderful

i piss in the rain and no one knows. this makes me the hero of time

Great song.

One of the best Zelda songs. No doubt about that.

@TheClashmaker Epicness with the rain

Vegeta, what did the scouter say about the musics epicness level? ITS OVER 9000!!!!!

i love it thx this song make me unstrees anymore

you are amazing!

Wind Waker II: The Theme Song right here.

this game has the best music of any zelda game, by far

are you seriously surprised that this has no dislikes? first of all you did a great job with the song and secondly, this song cant be hated. its impossible

This reaction makes me happy.

^o^ Absolutely love this!

best orchestrated zelda ever!!! :)

So much nostalgia.

God, I never expected an orchestrated version of DRI to be this good! 0.0

After this, there is no reason to worry about the orchastrated music in Skyward Sword. It's gonna be awesome!

That is clearly a seagull! Es una gaviota, no una paloma, querido. xDDDDD Gracias por subir esto

I liked that in under ten seconds

masterpiece!

best version of this song, in my opinion.

epic is an understatement 😆 this is mega legendary amazing!!!!!!!!!

@TheClashmaker THANK YOU!!

Such a good game....

this makes me want to play and beat wind waker for the 6th time

My favorite island theme.........JUST GOT UPGRADED!!!! Awesome!!! :D

So beautiful, that's all I can say..

@KettoKid Hell yeah!

this is awesome i love the zelda series

it's a bad ass song man

@Aurionfox gracias.. que bueno que te haya gustado... =D

Good job! :)

HOLY CRAP!!! This sounds soo badass with my 7.1 suround system! :D

If this song doesn't move you, then you have no soul. I love this!

amazing!!!!

Agreeing with you,this would sound so amazing to have it for Wii U remake

This is so epic ... This should've been the boss battle music, or even the Final Duel music with Ganon.

I just got done playing Sonny 2 (really fun flash game) and I just noticed one of their ost's are based off from this. Like you could easily tell it was from Dragon Roost at some parts of the ost.

Awesome

awesome

i nearly cried when it finished, can you make more?

@TheCasjerem thanx =) glad you like it!
