Day 13 – Your favorite musician
and why?
Oh, how I
was hoping that this question wouldn’t come up.
My “favorite” music changes periodically. Although, these three are usually always on my list:
Owl City, Lindsey Stirling, and Thomas Bergersen.
I am
especially drawn to music that has great lyrics (if applicable, of course; I do like a lot
of instrumental music), harmonious sound, and inspires me to create.
As I thought
about the question more and more, I realized what musician has had the greatest
impact on me as a person, my life, and my works. This would be Koji Kondo, the composer of the The Legend of Zelda video
games.
For your
listening pleasure:
Song of Storms (SSBB Version)
Gerudo Valley (SSBB Version)
Zelda's Lullaby - Ocarina of Time
Romance in the Air - Skyward Sword
The music of
the Zelda series has the uncanny ability to express settings and emotions in
nonverbal music. I tried to pick songs
to share here on my blog that are very different in both substance and style.
So much
nostalgia. Excuse me, I need a moment.
