GameChops Presents Zelda Funk

Could you use a little Zelda-themed funk in your life? Video game album producers GameChops thought so, so they teamed up with chiptune jazz musician Joshua Morse to produce Zelda Funk, a new album of funktified familiar tunes from across the Legend of Zelda series.

Morse specializes in 16-bit-inspired funk and in this album you can hear his renditions of melodies from A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time and others. And get this: the YouTube visualizer for the album depicts Link getting down with dance routines created by Lee Griffin. You can watch him break dance and swagger around as the tunes play out. Sound like a good deal?

“Mastering Zelda Funk for Joshua Morse was a real treat,” says GameChops founder and mastering engineer Chris Davidson. “I have been a fan of his music for almost two decades and he continues to raise the bar in terms of creative and fun arrangements of video game music. As a big Zelda fan and an even bigger listener of game music, there’s nothing else out there like Zelda Funk.”

The Zelda Funk album contains seven tracks:

Ocarina of Time
Faron Woods
Hyrule Castle
Lost Woods
Dark World
Death Mountain
Princess Zelda

Zelda Funk is available on all storefronts and streaming platforms through this link. And now through Link you can get funky!

Wow, Zelda Funk? Now that's a creative twist! As someone who appreciates a good remix album, I'm curious to see how Morse brings his chiptune jazz flair to these classic Zelda tunes. It's always refreshing to hear familiar melodies reinterpreted in unexpected ways, and the fact that this album covers tracks from various games in the series adds even more appeal. Count me in for a funky journey through Hyrule!

"100 stages? Four knight types? Multiple endings? This Chew Chew Mimic sounds like it has a ton of content! That'll definitely keep me busy for a while. I wonder if those NES cameos will be super obvious or if they'll be a fun challenge to spot. I might just have to snag both the digital and physical versions to experience everything the game has to offer."

This album sounds like a blast from the past with a funky twist! I've always enjoyed the music in the Zelda games, and the idea of hearing them reimagined in a funky style is intriguing. Morse's expertise in 16-bit-inspired funk promises to deliver a unique listening experience, and I'm eager to groove along to his renditions of iconic melodies from A Link to the Past and Ocarina of Time. Plus, the visualizer featuring Link dancing sounds like a fun addition
