This has been making the rounds, but in case you have not seen it…

A group called ZREO has spent a few years recreating the music from the game The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.  The original soundtrack is great, but hobbled by the MIDI system of the N64.

The culmination of a six year project, ZREO has reproduced the songs to sound more like a “real” orchestra played them.  It sounds as though these tracks were still created electronically, using higher quality samples, vs. pure electronic tones.  So while they are still not 100% realistic, this is still very cool.

You can download the entire soundtrack from their site.  Enjoy!
