* What happens when you [[GenreMashup combine]] [[UsefulNotes/The8bitEraOfConsoleVideoGames a classic 8-Bit tune]] with an [[OrchestralBombing Orchestrated remix?]] You get this [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umyU-vGFTqM sexy little ditty]] that plays in Adventure Mode. And in the Twilight Princess DLC's Adventure map, they've done it again with an [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFCBllZ-c7I 8-bit version of Twilight Field.]]

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUZyx_nncBY Psychostorm]] is both impressive due to how much of a final level vibe it has to it (fitting, considering it plays on the Temple of Souls, the penultimate DiscOneFinalDungeon before [[HijackedByGanon Ganon takes over the plot]])...and also by revealing just how ''unhinged'' Cia really is. Prior to this point, her interest in you was noted, but not given too much focus. In the disturbing [[StalkerShrine Temple of Souls]] however, Psychostorm ''sounds absolutely deranged'', with the ominous mix of instruments sounding less like you going to bring the fight to her lair...and more you being trapped with ''her''.

%%** Why not mash songs up, [[http://lobodragon.tumblr.com/post/113405122596/here-have-a-mashup-of-the-dinosaur-boss-theme like this]] [[http://lobodragon.tumblr.com/post/113405817736/enjoy-another-hyrule-warriors-mashup-would-have and this?]] Yup: the melodies are REALLY UpToEleven!

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuW38JQrDfY Eclipse of the Moon]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQxoJtNZLig Eclipse of the World]] have a looming atmosphere of desperation and hopelessness to them. The former plays during [[spoiler: the final confrontation with Cia's forces at the Valley of Seers]], while the latter plays in [[spoiler: Ganon's Castle, the last level of the game]]. Then there's the guitar remixes.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tb923IHkdg8 Eclipse of the Moon GT]], a faster-paced, metalized version of the standard Eclipse of the Moon and the theme for [[spoiler:the final fight with Cia herself.]]
** Then there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4bRBn0xrXM Eclipse of the World GT]], [[spoiler: AKA the theme of the final boss: Ganon.]] A metalized, frantic track invoking a sense of urgency and desperation, blending the presense of Ganon's Tower as Eclipse of the World standard did, combined with a sting of the ''Legend of Zelda'' theme on screaming guitars.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dz2xyd3Pi4c Focal Line]] serves as a ThemeMusicPowerUp. Especially when [[spoiler:the other timelines heroes return in Chapter 17.]] It's the perfect theme for an incoming victory, combining both the heart-pounding beat of a Dynasty Warriors' track and the adventurous spirit of The Legend of Zelda.

* The music in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOq4IiuRMWk the game's teaser]] uses electric guitars to the ''Legend of Zelda'' tune.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FW0iazARMXs Under Siege]] is a sped-up and slightly-altered rendition of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0bcRCCg01I Mars, the Bringer of War]], a fitting theme for a game like this.

* The original music is also incredibly awesome. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_skX8a3fwec Eclipse of the Sun]] has a great tune and excellent strings before turning metal, very fitting for the Lanayru Plains level.

* The second half of the trailer for the 3DS version uses a power metal remix of ''Wind Waker''[='=]s Credits theme, which is so awesome it can't help invoking the feeling of "Hey, Hryule Warriors isn't done yet! There's still more to come!" With the release of the 3DS port, we have [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vnei1O19uR0 the full version]], which also throws in parts of Dragon Roost Island for good measure.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIDy-G4zSP8 Molgera's Theme]] starts out very similar to how it does in ''Wind Waker'', but around two minutes in, it becomes an anime-sounding power metal ass-kicking anthem.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liIKClrVQo8 Sequence of Drops]] is eerie and more laid back than a lot of the metal covers; closer to a simple orchestra with some shrill instrumentation and little backup (it even sounds like Faron Woods from ''Twilight Princess'' if you're really listening). It's a nice break from all the heavy rocking going on.
** The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0f-e793_FJ4 pause screen variant]] forgoes the electric guitar, bass, and drumset, allowing previously-unheard elements such as the cellos to shine through. It sounds much more suspenseful and even a little sinister.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wzi7UobHpAg Silent Guardians]] similarly forgoes the rock and sounds more like a house mix version of a chant, with a bit of a Middle Eastern flair thrown in.[[note]]Some have even compared it to the music used in ''VideoGame/MetroidPrime'', such as the first game's [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfGsArRQjKE title music]].[[/note]]
** The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXe2TiguV1k pause screen variant]] lets the Gregorian chant sound a lot fuller, making the song sound more like a homage to the chant of [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime "Temple of Time"]]. Fitting, considering that the Temple of the Sacred Sword where "Silent Guardians" is played is clearly modeled after the Temple of Time.

* [[http://youtu.be/OLCMJPzAUvw Remnant of Twilight]] is a very fitting tune that plays in the Palace of Twilight from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess'', with its very ominous tone (taking cues from Zant's theme from that same game) that still manages to make you pumped for battle.
** Without that catchy beat in the background, the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vN_pF0NHuk pause screen variant]] sounds downright menacing.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdrNMao4RlI Heart of the End]]. Once you get past the rather shrill flute opening, you'll find a piece which, much like the aforementioned "Eclipse of the Moon", puts most of its emphasis on raw emotion; the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=waNFTE9aZeA pause screen variant]], which takes away the guitar and drums, even sounds somber. There's also a penultimate urgency to the track, feeling as though it's building up to something intense.
