ReMix:The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker "No Place Like Home" 3:26

Argle (Adam Kirby) hits us with the second of his Wind Waker mixes, following his symphonic anthem from last month up with an upbeat "Outset" hip-hop instrumental featuring chiptune & turntable elements:

"Crusty hip hop track with lots of 'trons and other moldy, old sounds."

As a fan of stinky cheese like gorgonzola, I can only say: delicious. I recently learned that the Chamberlin was the precursor to the Mellotron. I think I knew that at *some* point, but had forgotten. Interesting backstory. Upbeat & generally pretty plucky, this mix is pretty straightforward but does an excellent job capturing the intended texture/atmosphere; Chimpazilla writes:

"It all sounds fresh and fun. Some of the sounds are indeed cheesy but in such a good way. The scratches are terrific. I like the unique chord ideas you've used, nice personalization. Nice gating at 2:45! Very upbeat take on a great source."

Palpable adds:

"What a cute little arrangement. The original song is pretty happy and you kept that same spirit, while providing a fairly different take on it. The intro and outro didn't change the mood for me; they were kind of quirky and fit the style. Not much to say, but I really enjoyed it!"

Last but never least, not that we're doing any sort of comparative evaluation of judge quotes anyways, Nutritious offers:

"I've heard a few tracks from Argle now and I still feel like I haven't nailed down his personal style. Perhaps a jack of all trades mixer? He certainly seems to be proficient in mulitple genres :) This is a fun, upbeaty mix. Beat is crisp. Overall production is solid. The little variations and effects on the transitions are a very nice touch."

Ditto on the mix AND mixer comments; these two Wind Waker mixes are both great in their own distinct way, and taken as a one-two punch of Argle, illustrate some potent creativity & stylistic diversity. Fun, amiable arrangement from Argle that does a great job giving "Outset Island" a light & old-school makeover!
