Materia Collective has released a new album called The Temples (Music from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time) from metal arranger Ro Panuganti. It’s a creative tribute to the iconic dungeons from…you guessed, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Check out some links below to give it a listen.
The Temples is a progressive rock and metal cover album featuring 8 tracks from the 1998 classic The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time soundtrack. Chronicling the story of a heroic protagonist, The Temples traverses sacred locales, visceral battles, and incorporates Eastern and Indian tones across its modern metal foundation. Fueled by environment, ambiance, and courage in the darkest of fights, The Temples is an album determined to stand the test of time.
This creative metal album remixes each of the iconic temple themes from the beloved classic in explosive metal fashion, incorporating ambiance and sound design to tell the game’s story over the course of the album.
“The Temples is a culmination of learning new production skills, exploring wholly new areas of guitar playing, and above all, story-telling,” notes arranger Ro Panuganti. “Just like its inspired work, The Temples sets out to be a story of bravery over adversity, inviting new worlds and influences to the core music, and hopefully inspires any listener to pick up their instrument.”
