Ever wonder how Wind Waker's "The Great Sea is Cursed" manages to give you the shivers? It's all thanks to some clever musical tricks! The creators took the game's inviting sea theme and twisted it into something genuinely unsettling by throwing in tritones, clashing harmonies, and sneaky nods to other themes, including Ganondorf's.
They basically flipped the heroic vibe on its head, using elements like a creepy cello ostinato and those spooky perfect fourths to make the familiar feel utterly horrifying. It's a masterclass in turning comfort into curse!
