Tyler Hendricks transformed the iconic “Palace Theme” from Zelda II: The Adventure of Link into a fast-paced heavy metal piece. The cover was created with the use of a LTD H-1007 Deluxe electric guitar and Drop G tuning. The guitar replaces the techno-like flute part in the original song, and a mix of various drum beats, done by Tyler, replace the background music of the original as well.

The cover begins with a slow strumming of the guitar that captures the first iconic or nostalgic notes of the song, and then Tyler Hendricks changes the song into something imaginative and unique. While capturing the heart of the original work, the cover reinvents the song so that it appeals to rock enthusiasts and heavy metal fans alike.
