Temple Leveler (Zelda 2 NES Temple Theme ReMix) Release date: 2009-06-13 Length: 4:13 Status: original song Version: 1 Tags and details: Link
Legend Of Zelda 2 Temple Theme by NintenJoe 64. This is a very metallized version of the temple theme from Legend Of Zelda 2 for the original NES. I actually named it Temple Leveler only because i like giving my songs original names. Also, i posted my original version of this mix almost a year ago, but this is my finally finished highly produced mix that i hope everyone enjoys. ENJOY! :))

NintenJoe 64 is Joe Nichols on guitars, bass, drums, keyboards, and general awesomeness.
Many people said that Zelda 2 was a step back from the first iteration of the series, but I always liked The Adventure of Link better than the original. This track does the game justice, too. You need to listen to the original and then compare that version to this, though, in order to really appreciate what he has done to this song.
The only complaint I had was that the melody got a little lost in the chaos around 3:25. Maybe that was the point, but the song seemed hard to follow for twenty seconds around that point.
Yeah, about that tone...

I loved everything in this except the really, really bad crunch tone that comes in with the drums. Without that ugly tone, this would be far more fantastic than it currently is.
interesting

interesting choice of tones in this, the guitar tones seem almost like synths more than anything else to me, which i think with the scorching instrumentation isnt a bad thing at all. too much mechanics in the drums that takes away from the instrumentation to me. cool things you did with the keys in this, i like it. a lot of people cant really get 'extreme' with this music the way you've done here and that is great to see.
