7" on randomly colored vinyl
One-of-a kind release for any record collector who also loves video games, game music, or the wild west early era of the internet
Includes bonus isolated “stems” of the original tracks

Description

This is the “Zelda” song, erroneously credited over the decades to SOAD. It was originally the final track off the 1997 release entitled “The Rabbit Joint”, which featured Joe Pleiman on voice, production & instruments and Jesse Spence on drums (he also sings the falsetto on “Zelda”). It was originally recorded on a ½ inch Otari 8-track machine in the 11th floor of Tisch School of the Arts in the film school’s recording studio.

Included as a bonus on this 45 are isolated “stems” of the original tracks. Import these and make your own awesome remixes, then please share them with us at dewmarcampfire@gmail.com.

Side B features “Bye Bye Balloon”, a demo recorded by the Rabbit Joint fellas sometime in the year 2000. It's a tune about Mario Kart’s “Battle Mode” on the Nintendo 64, which is STILL the best-ever version of Mario Kart.

This is a one-of-a kind release for any record collector who also loves video games, game music, or the wild west early era of the internet. “Zelda”, often credited to acts like System of a Down, Mr. Bungle and Weird Al Yankovic, but actually performed by The Rabbit Joint, has been swapped by fans for over 25 years, dating back to the days of Napster and Limewire. It’s impossible to know how many iPods this song was once on or how many millions (or billions?) of times it's been swapped and downloaded. This is NOT music from the game, but an original work created as an homage to the original game and its iconic music.

What truly makes this release special is that it contains not just the original song, but also the original stems broken into individual stems of the 8-track multi-track, hard-panned Left/Right to give fans the opportunity to import and remix the elements. There is also an “empty orchestra” (karaoke/instrumental) version of the song. Side B also contains a vintage demo by The Rabbit Joint entitled “Bye, Bye Balloon”, an homage to Mario Kart 64’s Battle Mode.

Comes on randomly colored vinyl, unique vinyl.
