KOJI KONDO / The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Original Soundtrack (1998)

Musical score from the N64 game. If you've played LoZ: OoT, then you'll probably already be in love with much of its music. Hearing it again will flood you with memories of characters and locations, and make your hands itch to pick up a controller. The music was reliant on the N64's limited sound capabilities, so some concessions had to be made. It's not orchestral CD quality, it's MIDI files that to some ears may sound flat by today's standards. Nevertheless, Koji's skill produced audio that's bursting with emotion, danger, pastoral beauty and unbridled fun. It's not an exaggeration to say that I absolutely adore it.
If you've not played the game, should you care? Probably not. Shame on you.~
