Last week's Zelda jam was a pleasant trip down memory lane, but it was missing one thing that I've come to enjoy here every friday: a booty-shakin' beat to celebrate the end of the work week dancing to! So today we're revisit Hyrule thanks to the stylish innovation that the kids these days are calling "the remix".
Yes, I'm cheating here a little bit, as this is not so much chiptune as a fully produced remix of chiptune, but this tune, along with the rest of RAC's Nintendo vs. Sega EP, is as much a celebration of its gaming roots as anything from the likes of nullsleep, Bit Shifter and company.
This four-track nostalgia dance party made the rounds on the blogs over six months ago when it was first released. Since then RAC has continued making sweet remixes, most notably a sweet mixtape sponsored by Stereogum. If you dug this Zelda jam, I strongly encourage you to download the entire Nintendo vs. Sega EP, which is free and offers three more tracks from the worlds of Super Mario and Sonic the Hedgehog.
