This Unique Rock Cover from A Link to The Past Will Make You Feel Nostalgic
Posted on August 15 2016 by Molly Maugans
Fans love taking Zelda music and covering it in a new or different style. We feature off a lot of these covers, from soft acoustic songs, to heavy metal. Today, we are pleased to share a rock cover of the Hyrule Castle theme from A Link to the Past. This cover falls into the sub category of “surf rock,” a sub-genre of rock music that reached popularity on the beaches of the United States in the 1960s. 130Grit Sound Studio is the talented musician behind this cover, combining an electric guitar, drums, and a bass guitar to create a new spin on the familiar song.
This cover is part of 130 Grit Sound Studio’s “Let’s Play Cover Collection,” and this particular song is from volume number 5. It is very well done; the powerful notes in the beginning mix with a somewhat fluid harmony. It’s fun to listen too, and definitely brings back the nostalgia.
