GameChops Presents Zelda & Jazz III

Video game cover album publisher GameChops has just unveiled the third in the “Zelda & Jazz” series, which is what it sounds like — remixes of familiar tunes from throughout the Legend of Zelda series in a cool jazzy tempo. The first two albums were created by “The Deku Trio” an animated Hylian band, and they’ve returned to lay down the tracks for the third, with help from series creators, GameChops founder Chris Davidson and Chillhop’s Rob Araujo.

In Zelda & Jazz III, all the songs will be lifted from the most recent mainline titles, Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. You’ll get jazz renditions of the TOTK main theme, the stables, the wasteland, Korok Forest, Lurelin Village, Sidons Theme and many more. Featured tracks are composed by Manaka Kataoka, Yasuaki Iwata, Tsukasa Usui, Hajime Wakai, Maasa Miyoshi, and Masato Ohashi.

“I became an instant fan of Rob’s forward-thinking piano arrangements after meeting him,” says Davidson. “After bonding over our mutual love of The Legend of Zelda games, we decided to collaborate on a jazz band focused on mellow, intricate arrangements of the iconic soundtracks. After the first album recieved such a huge response from listeners, including our first BBC radio play for GameChops, we conceptualized a trilogy that covered a huge swath of the Zelda series. It’s been an amazing journey!”
