The Gerudo Valley theme from Zelda 64 is one of my favorite pieces by legendary Nintendo composer Koji Kondo, and judging from the number of ReMixes submitted and posted, it appears to have a similar appreciation amongst others. It hasn't been done like this before, tho - DJ Pheonix brings his breakbeat style to the tune, with clean synths and sweetly syncopated breakbeats with heavy dosages of repeats, retriggers, sample+hold, and pitch funkiness. Introing with rapid-fire chords on a straight, unprocessed synth guitar, Pheonix builds the mix nicely, taking no time to bring in da drums and main melody, but holding off nicely with the bass until 0'53". What follows is a well-thought out mix that definitely wasn't done on autopilot - all the elements play off one another in a tight rhythmic trade-off that's pure ear candy. More variety and interaction that some of Pheonix's other pieces, which is good to see as well. Definitely recommended, even if you have all the other Gerudo mixes :)
