Hey guys, as most of you know this will be my last "& chill" album. I think you can hear in the songs, that it was not easy to say goodbye, but it still feels like the right time. 4 years ago my first album was released and changed my life. I am still so thankful for this! It was mix of emotions working on this album, but I am very happy with the outcome. Of course I will not stop producing music in total. I am actually working on a lot of new, original songs on the go. This september I quit my apartement and sold nearly all of my stuff to travel the world, with two backpacks, my laptop, headphones and a mini keyboard. I am loving it so far and producing on the road actually works really well. Sadly, due to time differences I do not know if I will be able to watch the premiere with you, but hopefully I can. So again, thank you so much for your support, kind words and everything, this means the world to me. Enjoy! -Mikel
I will forever be blown away with the fact that in "mipha's theme," the main leit motif is literally "mi" and "fa" in the key over and over again. The composer was a freaking genius.
Zelda and chill quite litterally helped me out of depression and i've been happier of my life since finding this album thanks Mikel, i can't wait to listen to this new chapter
I just accidentally clicked the “credits” song on the album and I became sad, and not just sad, this is the kind of sad that you can feel in your chest but it’s also so satisfying to feel knowing that it may be all we got but it’s a beautiful piece of art that we can savor for the rest of our lives. It may not have helped me through dark times or anything but Mikel, you make some damn good music and I can’t wait to here what is to come from this. Edit: I lied. It helped me through Covid.
These Zelda and Chill albums got me through high school and are now getting me through University. I’m sad that this is the last one but I’m so grateful to be able to have listened to them all these years. I’m so excited to hear the new album and add the vinyl to my collection!
The sheer amount of schoolwork your Zelda and Chill albums have gotten me through is nothing to scoff at. Your albums got me through my first three years of high school, and you come back to bless me for my last with this. You could NOT have picked a better place to end the chill series (for me, atleast), its almost like its perfectly timed to send me off to university. Thank you so much Mikel and I can't wait to see what you continue on to create!
Hey Mikel, I wanted to thank you so much for all of your great soundtracks ! I remember listening to the first Zelda and Chill album a few years ago and I immediately fell in love with it. There was such a unique vibe coming from it, I especially remember that I was surprised by the use of BOTW cooking sounds in the song of storms because I found it so clever and creative ! Then when I discovered that you had released a 2nd album, I was so joyful about it, I listened to it on repeat and I was once again amazed by the quality of your work. I also checked your other soundtracks, and I have to say that your Ghibli ones are among my favourite as well. So, I think you can imagine how I felt when you released that first trailer for your third and last Zelda & Chill album. I cannot wait to listen to it on repeat !! This is the end of a journey, but be sure I will be there for your future content ! Much love from a fan ;)
No matter how this sounds I know I'm gonna love it. The first Zelda and Chill was basically the best thing I'd ever heard in my life and it completely consumed me. Than when Zelda and Chill 2 came out I was a bit disappointed. But than for some reason I came to adore it so much that now I love it significantly more than the first one. So I won't let myself be disappointed by this one, because I know I will love it regardless.
So, after listening to this album I can finally say... Thank You. You helped me go through tough times (even now, when I'm not in a good spot), and inspired me to make music myself. I would say if the first one was the Triforce of Power, the second one was the Triforce of Wisdom, this is certainly the Triforce of Courage. Again... Thank You, and I'll keep listening to whatever your heart throws out
Zelda and Chill 1 and 2 have gotten me through some truly difficult times, and they're some of the only playlists I can listen to over and over without getting bored. When I saw the premiere for this was gonna start I eagerly waited for a couple of days and finally it started, and instantly I was transported back to the serenity I felt when I first listened to Zelda and Chill. Great work man!
Thanks for all the chill beats through the years! Gees is still one of the coolest things I've ever heard and I bump the first Z&C in my car all the time. Hope you have the chance to play Tears of the Kingdom with us when it releases!
These songs are so great to just have on in the background, but when I stop to really listen and dive into the music they're also so nostalgic it hurts a bit. I've been listening to them constantly for the last few days and I just saw the comment you left and how this is your last "& Chill" album. You say how you think you can hear it in the songs that it isn't easy to say goodbye, and I think you are totally right. I do hear it, and I feel it. This album compared to the previous two has a much more distinct undertone of melancholy. But it's bittersweet. You're moving on to work on other things and you get to travel the world. I think that's great. As much as it's a goodbye it's also message to not let letting go keep you from moving on to bigger and better things. I subscribed and I look forward to seeing what you have in store for us next.
You helped me and everyone else during Lockdown. You also helped me out of depression. For me and everyone else, thank you. It's sad to see you go, but I'll always be listening. Until next time, have fun during your travels.
I've listened to all the Zelda and Chill albums constantly while doing homework for years, whether it was in highschool or University. Thank you for making all these. The Final Hours remix is the best one so far. Gives me chills!
I remember listening to tbe Zelda music while playing on my NES back in 88' and thinking to myself how cool this music is. Its good to know that I'm not the only one...Thank You.
There is such a strange warmth in all of your tracks - this album in particular. It´s the one thing I´ve never found in any other Lofi track. It´s really hard to describe but your tracks are unbelievably soothing, comforting, calming and peaceful. Truly a fantastic combination of often very unorthodox sounds and an even better mix to top it all of. Du bist der König Bruder
I 100% owe my engineering degree to Mikel. Every homework and study session I had Zelda and chill on in the background. Must've been hundreds of hours between albums 1 and 2. Now I get to listen to this masterpiece while I do my job!
Man these chill albums are so unbelievable. Poke and chill mmmmmmmmm. Thank you for ask the amazing albums. I can’s wait to listen to this one a million times
Man you don't realize the happiness you brought to us. You made me take the road of listening to your album over and over again. Favorite so far : Well I can't choose in fact
Hey! Thank you for all your work with the & chill albums, I've been listening to them frequently and they're my go-to when I'm in the mood for something calmer. :) Been looking forward for this one for quite a while and it was absolutely lovely! Safe travels, and enjoy your time! ❤
Thank you for all the “and chill” music you did create! I have fell in love with every song, and discovered them about two years ago. Thank you for everything so far, and am so excited for the future!
Been looking forward to this release. Really high quality work, yet again. I agree its a reasonable time to put a stamp on the Zelda and Chill albums, you've probably covered what you wanted to - after all there's only so many Zelda songs that you can remix and remake. This album is going in my important collection of background chill music. I have very fond memories of listening to Zelda and Chill 1, AND Zelda and Chill 2. They remind me back to parts in my life when I was listening to the music in the background - personal projects, work, studying, and even when going fishing. I wish you the very best on your travels on the road. I'll continue to follow you and your upcoming tracks & projects. Thanks again Mikel.
The song ¨story trailer¨ gaves me so much nostalgy when i played the legend of zelda for the firts time, I had never been able to play a Zelda game before, because where I lived they did not sell Nintendo consoles or things like that, only bootleg consoles from the Famicon called "Family" where there were no Zelda games, so I had to play OOT in a online emulator where I couldn't even pass the first dungeon due to errors. A year ago I got my first Nintendo switch, with this one, The legend of zelda Tears of the Kingdom and Animal Crossing NH. When I started TOTK for the first time, it was magic, it was beautiful, I cried at the beginning and end of the game, because my dream from when I was little had come true, that little girl had finally gotten her first Zelda, and her Nintendo console. It's incredible how a song made me remember all my childhood and history with video games, thank you very much for these albums Mikel.
When I saw Zelda and chill 3 I was amazed, but when I saw "Final hours", I was even more amazed. BUT when I listened to it... Well, I was totally and utterly amazed.
No way would I have completed grad school without this music to listen to while writing paper after paper. Thank you so, so much for your incredible work, and I can't wait to see what you do next!
Thank you so much for all of the Zelda & Chill music the last few years. These songs are frequently played in our home, primarily requested by my 3 year old son for the last year and a half. Maybe one of your youngest fans, he has already requested a "Zelda 4" as he calls them by number. I'll have to break the news to him soon :'). We are excited to see what new original content you come up with next!
I discovered your first "and chill" collection when trying to get through nursing school. It was a very stressful time and my anxiety was sky-high. Your music was my music of choice for studying because it was fun to listen to, helped me focus and was very relaxing and soothing to me. Thank you for sharing your talent and for helping me succeed in my journey to become an RN. ❤️
This is my favorite out of all the "and chills", while I was getting a root canal done on my tooth they let me listen to music and I listened to Zelda and Chill. It was so relaxing and my anxiety died down. So thanks for all of these.
Zelda & Chill has always been special to me ever since the first album came out, I find it very magical, I love it so much. Nowadays it helps me to stay sane during the war here. Looking forward to more awesome music from you! Peace.
Love your music, one of the few things I can just listen to and forget about everything else going on. Gonna miss the "& chill" series but can't wait to hear what's next! Safe travels and have fun!
I listen to Nintendo lofi from Gamechops practically on the daily, and the "and Chill" albums are always in there somewhere. I'm willing to accept that most people don't share my music tastes. But, I can say regardless of what others think, Nintendo has created some of the best soundtracks ever. Furthermore, your creative reimagining of these classics makes their music absolutely divine. In my Nintendo playlist the OoT theme from 'Zelda and Chill' is the first song, and the 'Ending Theme' from "Poke and Chill" is the last. You music has been with me through countless hours of school, cleaning, gaming, and relaxing. Thank you for some amazing albums and good luck on your next endeavors!
i love your music and albums i have over 1000 hours of listening time on zelda and chill 2 alone, so it's sad to see the series go. i wish you the best on your future endeavors
Zelda and Chill gives off such a good vibe that I know that I'll always come back to it, with all the memories made listening to it there's a certain nostalgia to it
Zelda and Chill got me through quarantine so having this third album out really brings me a sort of closure to everything that has happened in the last few years. Thanks for your work Mikel. We'll be listening.
Hey Mikel, thank you for this album I've been listening for years your musics and more especially your Zelda & Chill When time were harsh, it had helped me when I needed it the most. So thank you!
Congratulations man, I've loved all your albums so much, as a long time zelda player, and student with a lot of homework, these albums, as well as all your other lofi albums, have helped me through a lot of hard tests, assignments, and just life in general, thank you for taking the time to make them, and I wish you well in all your plans for the future
Thank you so much for the Zelda & Chill series. Your music helped me out numerous times with studying and performance anxiety! Your albums have been on repeat for quite a while now!
Oh my god! My daughter will be so excited to know that! My daughter konw Zelda and chill 2 since she's 2,5 years old. Because this is the power of music
I've been so antsy for this release. A few years ago I stumbled upon Z+C1 and I loved it. I was even on the hype train for the second installment. What I love most about Mikel is how he keeps the main melody of our beloved Zelda tunes but puts his twist on it to make it badass. I've been waiting for a while, and can't wait too see what comes after the "and chill" era. The work that you put into this truly means the world to me and I hope your travels bid you well. Thanks for the memories.
So bittersweet knowing this is the last of the “and chill” albums but im so excited to hear what comes next. Samurai, Gees & Robots was amazing! These albums helped me in so many ways. They have helped me sleep at night, calmed me through my anxiety, even gotten me back into my hobbies like painting and reading just so i can have these playing in the background.
This is so cool. I can’t believe it… ZELDA AND CHILL 3!!! These are my favourite Lo-Fi song collections and I am so excited to listen to the new ones now.
I have been listening since the first Zelda and chill. This has to be one of my all time favorite albums. Incredible work even months after this has been posted I’m constantly listening.
Thank you so much for this wonderful zelda journey! Your music is really something special--something that many of us will be listening to for years and years and years!
I love this music. I've loved all of your "& chill" albums. They're amazing and it's really sad to see the end of them. But I just want to thank you for all of them and wish you the best on your future musical endeavors and the next chapter of your journey! :)
Since the first Zelda & Chill Album, you have been my most played artist in every Spotify Recap. Loved every & Chill Album. Good luck in the future and safe travels!
Man, I absolutely love the "Credits" song! The great fairy fountain chord progression overlayed with the botw end credit melody works so well. I also love the transition to the great fairy fountain theme with the little album cover reference, a perfect callback to where the trilogy started. I remember listening to the first Zelda and chill back in 6th grade, now I'm a freshman starting high school. Thank you Mikel for all the time spent putting together such awesome music for all of us to enjoy, best of luck to you and wherever the road takes you!!
Thank you so much for making these 3 albums it's truly a musical journey and I can't describe how good it really sounds but I can tell you really put your heart into this and I really like it!
The "Legend of Lorule" is my favourite which of course is also what you play on that wonderful video you made with Matthias Zägel in the Suisse Alps. So... have a great trip with valuable experiences!
New listener to this body of work (not even a zelda fan btw), but really enjoying it, appreciate the generosity, artistry and commitment shown in producing it, so thanks - and good luck with whatever you're taking on now and next.
Zelda & Chill is what helped me discover lofi as a study aid, I'm excited to hear this, even if it is your last one. I wish you luck on your adventures
I love the choice in songs. This being the third Zelda and Chill, it makes sense as many of the more common choices in Zelda music to remix have been done already by Mikel; but it's still so interesting to hear these other songs that are so important to the franchise redone in this style. Songs often overlooked, like the reoccuring theme for inside houses. Darker and more intense songs like Final Hours and BOTW's Hyrule Castle. I don't make lofi myself, so I can't say for sure, but I can only assume it is a larger skill and artistic challenge to take on such songs in the genre of lofi (when compared to others such as The Lost Woods or Fairy Fountain). All this to say, I love to see these songs that are not typically approached being remixed. Music, whether big themes or less noticeable atmosphere pieces is so important to the Zelda franchise, and the challenge of remaking some of these songs that don't fit into lofi as easily was well-met and then some. Love your work Mikel, can't wait to see what the upcoming stage of your artistic career involves!
Hey guys,
as most of you know this will be my last "& chill" album.
I think you can hear in the songs, that it was not easy to say goodbye, but it still feels like the right time.
4 years ago my first album was released and changed my life. I am still so thankful for this!
It was mix of emotions working on this album, but I am very happy with the outcome.
Of course I will not stop producing music in total. I am actually working on a lot of new, original songs on the go.
This september I quit my apartement and sold nearly all of my stuff to travel the world, with two backpacks, my laptop, headphones and a mini keyboard.
I am loving it so far and producing on the road actually works really well.
Sadly, due to time differences I do not know if I will be able to watch the premiere with you, but hopefully I can.
So again, thank you so much for your support, kind words and everything, this means the world to me.
Enjoy!
-Mikel
Safe travels, Mikel. You helped a lot of us during the lockdowns.
Good luck to you and be safe, maybe you’ll come back after Tears of the Kingdom is released, either way all the best to you 🙂
just know we all love you and your music!
Your other stuff is amazing as well! I especially love the Ghibli Tape. Can't wait to hear this album!
Thank you *so* much, your music is amazing. And safe travels!
I will forever be blown away with the fact that in "mipha's theme," the main leit motif is literally "mi" and "fa" in the key over and over again. The composer was a freaking genius.
And sidon's theme is very similar, but it is Ti-Do, and in japanese it is Si-Do
Zelda and chill quite litterally helped me out of depression and i've been happier of my life since finding this album thanks Mikel, i can't wait to listen to this new chapter
I'm really glad you're feeling better!
@@MikelTBE thanks man means alot from my favorite artist
same
i wish u the best! i also love that album
Dude zelda has a similar effect and zelda and chill keeps me balanced. Happy that you are happier. Work on it, keep up the courage.
Had my first kiss while I had Zelda & Chill 2 in the background , thanks for all the awesome memories man.
That's soooo beautiful! :3 Lucky one! :D
sheeeeesh
Hell yeah brother
Aw that's so cute!
Oh my god... ending it with fairy fountain.
I'm almost crying. Thank you for everything.
I just accidentally clicked the “credits” song on the album and I became sad, and not just sad, this is the kind of sad that you can feel in your chest but it’s also so satisfying to feel knowing that it may be all we got but it’s a beautiful piece of art that we can savor for the rest of our lives. It may not have helped me through dark times or anything but Mikel, you make some damn good music and I can’t wait to here what is to come from this.

These Zelda and Chill albums got me through high school and are now getting me through University. I’m sad that this is the last one but I’m so grateful to be able to have listened to them all these years. I’m so excited to hear the new album and add the vinyl to my collection!
THERE'S VINYL FOR THESE?!?!
@@novamarpo3 Yes there are! I think you can still get Z&C III on Bandcamp but I’m not sure about the other two :)

it's hard to make literally everything go hard, but this man has done it perfectly
Song of storms will forever be my favorite. It is what really got me into lofi. Thank you Mikel. You really changed me.
Out of body experience. I have loved the series from the start. Travel the world and don’t stop exploring❤❤❤
So, after listening to this album I can finally say... Thank You.
You helped me go through tough times (even now, when I'm not in a good spot), and inspired me to make music myself.
I would say if the first one was the Triforce of Power, the second one was the Triforce of Wisdom, this is certainly the Triforce of Courage.

I really love the Final Hours one, these Zelda & Chill albums are amazing! Love your work!
you've improved so much over the years! this album is so good and your style is so distinct from any other lofi or chill music.
I remember listening to tbe Zelda music while playing on my NES back in 88' and thinking to myself how cool this music is. Its good to know that I'm not the only one...Thank You.

What you call "strange warmth" I perceive as a "longing". I guess that's what you mean, it hits the heart.
First time I've clicked "notify me" for a youtube premiere. Let's go!
I 100% owe my engineering degree to Mikel. Every homework and study session I had Zelda and chill on in the background. Must've been hundreds of hours between albums 1 and 2. Now I get to listen to this masterpiece while I do my job!
Your "&Chill" albums are my favorite thing to listen to! They've taken me through 4 years of medical and graduate school!

Man you don't realize the happiness you brought to us. You made me take the road of listening to your album over and over again.
Favorite so far :
Well I can't choose in fact
The fact that this may be the last Zelda & Chill is bittersweet but that won't stop me from listening to your music until the end of time!
I am forever grateful for Astral Observatory's inclusion in this 🔥 Utterly amazing work
Man this mix is so good for programming ngl . Zelda& Chill helps so much at work as a web developer.
Hey! Thank you for all your work with the & chill albums, I've been listening to them frequently and they're my go-to when I'm in the mood for something calmer. :)
Been looking forward for this one for quite a while and it was absolutely lovely!
Safe travels, and enjoy your time! ❤

I love all the music that you had released and always listen to both of your Zelda and chill album’s all the Time also
Super stoked! I’ll be jamming it for weeks I’m sure

Such nostalgic memories, You made me start over the whole zelda timeline!
I finally listened to these bangers
and now the only ones remaining
are "The Ghibli Tape" n' "Floating"
Thanks Mikel! I love your content. I’ve listened to your music through many hours of studying and trying to survive med school.
Zelda and Chill gives off such a good vibe that I know that I'll always come back to it, with all the memories made listening to it there's a certain nostalgia to it
Thanks for the amazing music as always! :)
Zelda and Chill got me through quarantine so having this third album out really brings me a sort of closure to everything that has happened in the last few years. Thanks for your work Mikel. We'll be listening.
Hey Mikel, thank you for this album
I've been listening for years your musics and more especially your Zelda & Chill
When time were harsh, it had helped me when I needed it the most. So thank you!
Man I love your creations
Congratulations man, I've loved all your albums so much, as a long time zelda player, and student with a lot of homework, these albums, as well as all your other lofi albums, have helped me through a lot of hard tests, assignments, and just life in general, thank you for taking the time to make them, and I wish you well in all your plans for the future
Thank you so much for the Zelda & Chill series. Your music helped me out numerous times with studying and performance anxiety! Your albums have been on repeat for quite a while now!
One of the better Zelda mixes I've heard
If you're reading this, know that you're not alone. We're in this together, and you're doing awesome 💫🍓
Oh my god! My daughter will be so excited to know that!
My daughter konw Zelda and chill 2 since she's 2,5 years old. Because this is the power of music
Great music. Final Hours was probably my favorite with Astral Observatory in close second
I've been so antsy for this release. A few years ago I stumbled upon Z+C1 and I loved it. I was even on the hype train for the second installment. What I love most about Mikel is how he keeps the main melody of our beloved Zelda tunes but puts his twist on it to make it badass. I've been waiting for a while, and can't wait too see what comes after the "and chill" era. The work that you put into this truly means the world to me and I hope your travels bid you well. Thanks for the memories.
So bittersweet knowing this is the last of the “and chill” albums but im so excited to hear what comes next. Samurai, Gees & Robots was amazing! These albums helped me in so many ways. They have helped me sleep at night, calmed me through my anxiety, even gotten me back into my hobbies like painting and reading just so i can have these playing in the background.
the best trilogy on youtube. i loved zelda and chill so much that i own it on vinyl. fucking vinyl. have fun traveling the world!
This is so cool. I can’t believe it… ZELDA AND CHILL 3!!!
These are my favourite Lo-Fi song collections and I am so excited to listen to the new ones now.
I have been listening since the first Zelda and chill. This has to be one of my all time favorite albums. Incredible work even months after this has been posted I’m constantly listening.
Masterpiece.
But for real this is hands down the best Lo-fi album I’ve ever heard!!!
thank you for making some of my favorite music these past few years
Thank you for everything, Mikel. Good luck on whatever adventures you take on next!
i didn't know this was releasing but i'm glad it did!
Thank you so much for this wonderful zelda journey! Your music is really something special--something that many of us will be listening to for years and years and years!
From VBT Instrumentals to this and I'm still here!
Thank you so much for your Zelda & Chill mixes and good luck on your new adventure!
I love this music. I've loved all of your "& chill" albums. They're amazing and it's really sad to see the end of them. But I just want to thank you for all of them and wish you the best on your future musical endeavors and the next chapter of your journey! :)
Since the first Zelda & Chill Album, you have been my most played artist in every Spotify Recap. Loved every & Chill Album. Good luck in the future and safe travels!
Du hast es weit gebracht und deine Musik bezaubert mich bei jedem Mal anhören. Wirklich gut! :)
My man has brought me through uni this far. Certified bangers
Please keep making these! They are so awesome. Thank you.
This is a good ending love your music man
Man, I absolutely love the "Credits" song! The great fairy fountain chord progression overlayed with the botw end credit melody works so well. I also love the transition to the great fairy fountain theme with the little album cover reference, a perfect callback to where the trilogy started. I remember listening to the first Zelda and chill back in 6th grade, now I'm a freshman starting high school. Thank you Mikel for all the time spent putting together such awesome music for all of us to enjoy, best of luck to you and wherever the road takes you!!
Thank you so much for making these 3 albums it's truly a musical journey and I can't describe how good it really sounds but I can tell you really put your heart into this and I really like it!
The "Legend of Lorule" is my favourite which of course is also what you play on that wonderful video you made with Matthias Zägel in the Suisse Alps. So... have a great trip with valuable experiences!
New listener to this body of work (not even a zelda fan btw), but really enjoying it, appreciate the generosity, artistry and commitment shown in producing it, so thanks - and good luck with whatever you're taking on now and next.
Definitely one of the most hype albums of the year for me, thanks again for everything Mikel, can't wait to hear your new stuff !
Can’t wait! Your albums always are the best!
I'm super glad you made this music I love them all, good luck on any future project, your gonna crush it man.
Zelda & Chill is what helped me discover lofi as a study aid, I'm excited to hear this, even if it is your last one. I wish you luck on your adventures
I love the choice in songs. This being the third Zelda and Chill, it makes sense as many of the more common choices in Zelda music to remix have been done already by Mikel; but it's still so interesting to hear these other songs that are so important to the franchise redone in this style. Songs often overlooked, like the reoccuring theme for inside houses. Darker and more intense songs like Final Hours and BOTW's Hyrule Castle. I don't make lofi myself, so I can't say for sure, but I can only assume it is a larger skill and artistic challenge to take on such songs in the genre of lofi (when compared to others such as The Lost Woods or Fairy Fountain).
All this to say, I love to see these songs that are not typically approached being remixed. Music, whether big themes or less noticeable atmosphere pieces is so important to the Zelda franchise, and the challenge of remaking some of these songs that don't fit into lofi as easily was well-met and then some.
Love your work Mikel, can't wait to see what the upcoming stage of your artistic career involves!
Love how you went on an actual adventure! Excited to see how where your journey takes you and your music!!
