Zelda's Lullaby

Featured in this video is the AeroBand MIDI controller guitar, which I used to recreate all the classic sounds from the Nintendo 64 masterpiece, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. AeroBand has made some great improvements to the guitar, so be sure to check it out – links are in the description if you’re interested!

While I stuck with those iconic N64 tones for this video, you’re absolutely free to get creative and use an acoustic or electric guitar instead. The notes and pitch translate perfectly — so make it your own!

🔀 I’ve split this performance into four sections for clarity:
1. Strings
2. Harp
3. Vibraphone – Note: This only plays near the end of the original loop in Ocarina of Time, so I jumped ahead to when it kicks in to avoid long stretches of silence.
4. Flute – The most memorable melody of the piece.

🎚 In each section, the instrument that’s tabbed is slightly louder in the mix so you can clearly hear what’s being played.

⚠ Heads up: The vibraphone and flute parts in this video are played one octave higher than what you’d hear on a regular guitar. Thanks to the AeroBand MIDI guitar, I was able to shift up an octave easily. If you’re playing this on a traditional guitar, just know you’ll be an octave lower than what you hear here.

I had a blast putting this one together. If you’d like to see more videos using the AeroBand MIDI guitar, let me know — which song should I cover next?

Thanks for watching! 🤘
