“Africa” is a popular Toto song, and a fan of The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask utilised the game’s playable instruments to recreate the song. Fans of Nintendo’s famous action-adventure video game from 2000 continue to make fan art based on the game to this day. Fans of Majora’s Mask reimagined the cover image of Final Fantasy 7 with Link on the front. Majora’s Mask allows Link to wear a mask and become a non-Hylian species, which is an intriguing aspect. This set of magical masks may be obtained by Link by performing the “Song of Healing” that he learned from the Happy Mask Salesman.
When Link puts on the masks, a mechanism kicks in that enhances gameplay by giving him more power. Link can roll at great speed with the Goron Mask and swim quicker and even walk on water with the Zora Mask. This mask transforms Link into a Deku Scrub that can spew bubbles and unleash a spin attack. Majora’s Mask uses these masks to aid the hero in his quest to save Termina, but they really hold the screams of the game’s slain NPCs. Link, on the other hand, may take on the appearances of these creatures and even play a variety of instruments thanks to the masks. According to Polygon, a YouTuber who goes by the nickname Bigfatfrown has created an incredible rendition of Toto’s “Africa” by blending the sounds of several instruments in Majora’s Mask.
Link performs as himself, Goron Link, Zora Link, and the Deku Scrub in a collected video to the 1980s classic song, playing a variety of instruments. While the Deku pipes mimic the voice speaking the words, Bigfatfrown employs bongos, drums, and a guitar to give a background accompaniment for the song. Amazingly, Bigfatfrown was able to reproduce “Africa” using just four in-game instruments. When Link turns into Deku Link in Majora’s Mask, he can imitate the singer’s voice with his Deku pipes, which have an astonishingly wide spectrum of sounds.
It’s also noteworthy to note how effectively the song’s pop sound blends with the game’s darker instrumentation. It’s also worth noting that Bigfatfrown has previously remade A-“Take ha’s On Me” with a similar upbeat chorus. A vast variety of music may theoretically be generated in the same manner that The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask’s instruments have a large range. It’s possible that Bigfatfrown may cover another 1980s song, like “Take On Me,” in the future.
