Clocktown

Hello there and welcome to Frissoncast. On this very first episode I have decided to take you down digital memory lane. Every now and then a musician discovers a tune that could have easily been played unrecorded for centuries. It is my personal my opinion that the piece of music I am about to share is one such example. It feels as though it has been transported unadulterated through space and time, such compositions allow the listener to contemplate what the world could have been like when the tune was perhaps first played.
I have discovered over the years that the heartbeat to many movies and video games is undoubtedly the soundtrack. Take away this heartbeat and many films and games would fail to have the same impact they once did. As with movie soundtracks, gaming soundtracks can sometimes work their way into your soul for life and this song is no exception.
In the early 2000’s a video game was released onto the Nintendo 64 console. This game was non other than The Legend of Zelda, Majoras Mask. This was an epic game in all senses of the word. In fact it was such an epic undertaking that it is one of the very few games that I have never finished. It remains in its own special place, perhaps never to be completed. It is one of those rare experiences that hasn’t yet come to its conclusion and I am simply not ready to end it any time soon.
This remix of the original theme titled Clocktown is produced and performed by Theophany but was originally composed by Koji Kondo . Theopanys version was released in 2012 and is quiet simply breath taking and overwhelming at times. Crank those headsets up and enjoy. If you are familiar for Majoras Mask you may find yourself reminiscing deeply for the next 6 plus minutes, if not prepare to be transported to a medieval village.
Welcome to Clocktown.
