On the 33rd anniversary of the release of the very first Legend of Zelda game, witness the awakening of the Seven Sages.

Kirsten Carey – guitar
Andrew Hintzen – keyboard
Neal Anderson – EWI / trumpet
Jon Hammonds – bass
Jonathan Taylor – drums
DJ Tweak!, aka James Chance (not to be confused with the Contortions guy), specializes in deep cuts of J-Core and video game music unknown to mere mortals.
