Hero of Time (Music from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time) Anniversary Edition 2xLP

iam8bit & Materia Collective are ecstatic to present Hero of Time, a one-hour arrangement album based on Koji Kondo's dynamic, epic and absolutely gorgeous score to The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

Recorded by the 64-player Slovak National Symphony Orchestra for this very album, Hero of Time breathes new life into the classic Ocarina of Time score, previously only available via its Nintendo 64 sound chip origins.

The album is arranged & composed by Eric Buchholz, a maestro of video game concert tours across the globe, including The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony (plus the bonus CD that shipped with Skyward Sword!!), The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses, and many more.

The stunning album artwork was created by Ryan Brinkerhoff, full of subtle visual detail and interactive pieces, including a die-cut Ocarina window on the jacket's front, a majestic gatefold featuring both Light or Dark sides, and, of course - the finishing crescendo of a shimmering, gold foil-stamped triforce on the back.

And for the first time ever, this special Anniversary Edition features an all-new Obi Strip, complete with details on the album itself. We’ve pressed it on an all-new colorway; the gorgeous Blue Clouds/Violet Clouds Vinyl. It’s the perfect celebration of The Legend of Zelda’s 40th anniversary.

This album was recorded LIVE at Studio 1 in Bratislava by the Slovak National Symphony Orchestra and was specially mastered for vinyl by the trusted experts at Infrasonic.
