8-bit Music Theory | How Link's Awakening Rearranges a Soundtrack @8bitMusicTheory | Uploaded 4 years ago | Updated 3 hours ago
After being blown away by the Link's Awakening remake and its approach to rearranging the original Gameboy soundtrack, I decided to see if I could analyze the new soundtrack to glean some insight into arranging for a group that you don't often hear in video game soundtracks: wind sextet. After analyzing the game's wind sextet arrangement of its title theme, I tried to 'steal' the ideas present in the arrangement in order to create a wind sextet arrangement of the original Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow title screen of my own. After much trial and error I ended up with something that I'm pretty proud of, and this video is meant to take you through the process of how I got there.

My Pokemon arrangement starts at: 10:45
