time to replace one of my worst sheets on site

Y'know, most people normally wouldn't think to do m1-3, but the way you arranged it sounds so tonally right for Twilight Princess lol

Admittedly I was hoping to open this and hear A D F A D like some basic remaster of the OOT 64 theme. Oh... eh I guess it's not so bad. I felt like I spent the most time listening to make sense of the loop.

• I happened to notice you dropped the "and Koji Kondo", and added an oxford comma in the composer credits. Mixing it up haha? Just was reviewing your other TP arrangements onsite
• It sounds like there should be a final pitch at the end of the triplets in m1 on beat 3. I also think on beat 2 the last triplet should be same pitches as first note of this triplet grouping. Just listening to the percussion sounds. Thoughts?

Thanks! I love figuring out how to make weird sound effects work on a piano, glad it works with the general idea too ;3

The original song of time version does exist in twilight princess too! In the hall before the temple, which is pretty much based on the original temple of time as well. But yeah, it would've been even better if the temple theme would use that thematic material too, but oh well :p

Huh, idk how that happened haha, changed it to be consistent with my on site sheets ^^

Ah yeah, I didn't notice the exact workings of the triplet before, just went with a general piano idea that sounded right. I added a note on beat 3 and changed that + the second to last note to be the same as the two notes before!

Looks good!

not the first time I've thought this on Bloop's TP sheets hahah

Looking great! Just a few miscellaneous thoughts before we finish up:
- It did occur to me that it might be cool to introduce some 16th notes into the rhythm starting around m. 10+. But I suppose that's what you were going for with the gradual pedal in and pedal out, and it makes sense to me
- There's a random small line at the bottom of the end of m. 29
- Is there no way to simplify the structure? 5 pages seems like a lot to notate what's basically 4 measures of repeated material in the main loop, with some variety. Though I get if there are subtle differences.

Yeah it's more of a delay effect rather than an actual rhythm, and trying to play that up to speed would probably be hell haha

oop

The only differences are really there in pedal (so when the delay effect happens or not), but for notes the loop could happen after m35 too. If you want, I could add an optional D.S. marking if people want to play without pedal?

I'll leave it up to you! It'd probably be awkward to notate different pedalling on a repeat, so I agree leaving it all written out is fine. I think another performance note (optionally with an optional DS marking) at that point could help regardless so the performer doesn't go scouring the rest of the sheet trying to determine if any of the notes are different (as I would likely do).

[Bloop]

Added one!

Alrighty, looks good to me!
