When an artist becomes known for a certain style/sound, it can often be challenging to experiment & produce something outside of that expectation. Nevertheless, it's something we not only encourage on OCR, I would go so far as to say that it's built into the community's DNA, and essentially a founding principle. That's why this consecutive mixpost from Rebecca E. Tripp is so cool - it offers a far more ambient/experimental spin than we're used to hearing from her, turning the minimalistic Twilight Princess "Snowpeak" source into something immersive, environmental, & very, very cold:
"I am extremely, extremely pleased with this cover. ^_^ This is the first thing I've produced (that wasn't a collaboration) that I've been really, truly proud of this season. Spring is coming... and winter is already ending where I live. Even though it's only January, there are spring birds and flowers everywhere. But I wanted to see the old year off with a TRULY FRIGID composition. This is my piece, "A Biting Voice Upon the Wind," which is based on the "Snowpeak" theme from Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. It was my hope that this track would be almost as cold as my "Ice Cavern" remix from Ocarina of Time. It's sort of a sister piece to that composition!"
Larry Oji writes:
"I thought it could have been an issue adapting this in a way that would work with the Standards here, but once things picked up more around :39 with the synth accent and later the choir and vox lines around 1:06, I realized this could be different enough from the tone of the source, so props on making this work. Around 1:47, you first get that additional cameo theme in the back, which was my interpretation of the "biting voice" alluded to in the title. Rebecca does a nice job letting this piece breathe and evolve, all while keeping the source constantly in play (even just through the ambiance), then letting the last minute and a half just hang there while bringing back the "biting voice" and wind SFX. Good meditative stuff that I can't say we hear a lot of around these parts! Stay bundled up with this one. :-)"
Of course, it's June now, but it can be winter any time of the year... in your MIND. I can definitely see this being a good meditation piece, and I really dig how so many of the elements are so faint, and can only be "seen" through the whisping wind of a blizzard; it's a very visual piece, to me, in that specific sense. A compelling departure for Rebecca, who takes the wintry spirit of the source and plants the listener right in the midst of some beautiful, enveloping weather!

This remix is very light and airy, kind of like a musical rest stop. A nice and peaceful soundscape that fits perfectly with a friday morning.

I hear the snow falling and the crunch of boots breaking frost.

It's a small area of TP, but it's my favorite in the game (plus I think the TP Hyrule Field theme is the best field theme in the series - contentious take...), and this remix does a great job in evoking the "edge of the world" feel it has. I especially love the final minute, with mostly environmental sounds. I try to do ambient stuff like this, but it's hard for me to flesh out melody and get beyond simply playing sustained pads in a down-tempo loop for 6 minutes. Great work and great patience!

Snowpeak was a wonderful song that I never thought would see a quality remix. The strong sense of longing, isolation, and beautiful desolation is all represented and delicately expounded upon. Thank you, RebeccaETripp.
