Fresh off a fifteen-stop west coast tour, Indie Hip-Hopper Dr. Awkward is back with a project that aims to take you to a whole new place, Hyrule. Fifteen years after the release of "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time", Dr. Awkward re-enters the war ravaged world as Link, with "Boy Without a Fairy". The album is a 8 track walk through some of the themes present in the legendary game; sampling the songs that made one of the most memorable soundtracks to date. The production of the album is done by Shag, a man who shares Doc's love for the Nintendo 64 game and Hip Hop, made apparent by his Zelda Beat tapes (Flyrule available at shag.bandcamp.com/album/flyrule).

Since 2009, Dr. Awkward has brought his unique twist to Hip-Hop which has garnered an ever-growing fanbase, and made him a staple at Hip-Hop shows and Comic/Game Conventions alike. Known for his video game samples and his psychological approach to video game music, Doc brings a unique dimension to the characters he explores.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, released in 1998 by Nintendo, is widely consider by critics as the greatest game ever made. It appears in the Guinness Book of World Records as the highest reviewed game of all-time. Since its original release on the Nintendo 64, it has be ported to GameCube and Wii and re-released on the 3DS; altogether garnering sales near 10 million copies worldwide.

"Ocarina of Time is and always will be the greatest action-adventure game ever made." Doc says about the game that changed his life forever. "It was the game that represented the best parts of our childhoods; friendship, love, and adventure. As that nerdy kid growing up, Link was the unlikely hero that you always hoped you would be. The underdog, everyone loves the underdog."

"Boy Without a Fairy" was released on Wednesday, March 13, 2013, and the runtime is roughly 20 minutes. It is available at www.DrAwkward.com for the option of Name-Your-Own-Price. The first single from the album is "Pieces of a Whole" which samples the Spirit Temple theme from the game, and explores the history and power of the legendary Tri-Force.
