FAWM: "Song of FAWM (OoT)"

Song of FAWM (OoT)

Liner Notes

I recently discovered a new Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time song for the ocarina. A new song, 28 years after its release, that no one's discovered yet!

Listeners to the "Song of FAWM" are granted incomparable songwriting skill and speed for all the days of February. Must be renewed at the start of every new FAWM.

I've wanted to explore some Zelda music this year just because the game is enchanting, and the music is so good throughout the series. The chance to try and write my own little ditty on a gift ocarina I got for Xmas had to be taken, even if I have very little skill on the instrument. I added some guitar and kazoo to simulate the cutscene you usually get after learning a new song in the game.

Lyrics

Instrumental. But very magical I can assure you.

Enchanting! Yes magical indeed. I wanted it to go on for longer of course :)

Amazing how the ocarina fills the space by itself - enchanting!

@heliosonorous 2d

Sounds very fantasy world based, uplifting melody for a heroic quest!

I appreciate you pulling out the ol' ocarina. I've only met two people in my life that play it, and as such is the case in these niche hobbies they had a whole collection. Enough babbling, love the originality and the compactness of the song. It really does seem like you tooled it to work for an N64 without having to cut out a room to do it. Or did they do the Unreal Tournament thing and have an in-game sound library? Either way, love it!

My whole collection is in kazoos. There's dozens of dollars worth there.

Hey neat idea! I love that you took inspiration from OOT and Zelda in general. I feel like having that IP going as long as it has keeps it toes in the “Music makes the moments” pool and thank goodness! Your interpretation was a solid nod to the miniatures as the full package — learn tune, play tune with accompaniment, get dopamine jingle. My favorite was always “Bolero of Fire” haha
