It all started in September 2008 when a metal head met an aggressive form of electronic music called Hardstyle. Since then Ephixa has been working with different styles of electronic music.
He is best known for his remix of "Lost Woods" from The Legend of Zelda game series.
He is also known for being one of the co-founders of Monstercat. He is one of Monstercat's first signed artists and his song "Dubstep Killed Rock 'n' Roll" was the first song ever released on the label. He was also featured on several of Monstercat's compilation albums.
He left Monstercat for 4 years with his song, "The Anthem", featured on Monstercat 009 Reunion with Varien & Project 46. The reason for leaving the label was because of a falling out between the staff and Ephixa which resulted in no more releases from him for a time.
He returned to Monstercat in July of 2016 with his track, "Matches" with Stephen Walking, which was featured on the 5 Year Anniversary album. He then later returned in 2017 with a track with Laura Brehm, called Losing You, his solo single on the Rocket League soundtrack, called Skyforth, and collaboration with Bossfight, called Subside.
Lost Woods
Ephixa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And without a map
Listen to the sounds
I found a trap
Got my sword and ocarina
To fend off hordes of awful demons
If you gonna think you can get through me
Then you can get on my deku seeds
Ya'll are fake, I see you in my
Lens of truth
Then I grew
Into a man
With the song of time
Song of time?
- That's my jam
Make it rain Rupees cause I can
Look at all my clothes, you say I'm flossing
Red, Blue, Green to slay the bosses
- And I love these hoes
Zelda and Saria yo
Ganondorf ain't got this swag
Light arrows go in his ass
Watch me pass
On my ride
Got my Epona tonight
Zombies in the Hyrule field
Without a shield Now to deal
My hookshot!
Din's fire looking hot!
Running through the woods
And without a map
Listen to the sounds
I found a trap
Fairies what I should've got
Man, these hearts are not enough
Make it rain with stormy songs
Owl is talking way too long
Hurry up! No time to chat
Cause I got a deadline to find my way back.
Minus the fact I got my keys
Make it to the next room, lost for weeks
Watching me
Like Poe's ghost
Bout to kill the boss, I'm so close
Now I am defending
The Kingdom from the henchmen
I want it on my pendant
The Triforce on my necklace
Lost in the woods
I Thought I could
Find a way out
Any day now
I Take a left
I Take a right
I Take a step
I see the light
Navi says to
Running through the woods
And without a map
Listen to the sounds
I found a trap
Bouncing back, no game over
Yeah you know bombing all these big ass boulders
- I got milk
From a talking cow
I once helped
- Malon and myself
To be a notch on my belt
Killing all these spiders
My Rupees getting higher
My boomerang is awesome
I'm shooting all these goblins
With my slingshot.
I'm Link on the
Brink of
Finding shiek
My name is known all across the earth
From Lake Hylia to Gerudo desert
You knew I'm better
Nabooru wants me
I sure am hungry
For magic beans
It's sad to see
Me owning all these
Zombies and the
Shadow beasts
Come out at night
Along with dogs
Which one is right?
I'm good to fight
My kicks will let me float on air
Nike flights
Running through the woods
And without a map
Listen to the sounds
I found a trap
I'm about to snap
I feel the power
Spin around once
You're going downwards
- Don't mess with me
My master sword
Is the best you see
My energy is 30 hearts
So we got a long time
Before I start
- You're testing me?
Bombchu coming at your feet
About to get the mask you see
I got the stone of agony
I'm glad to be your majesty
The hero of the odyssey
Death mountain isn't this hot
Medallions on my wristwatch
Lost in the woods
I Thought I could
Find a way out
Any day now
I Take a left
I Take a right
I Take a step
I see the light

Line by Line Meaning
Running through the woods
Moving quickly through the forest
And without a map
Having no guidance on direction
Listen to the sounds
Paying attention to the noises in the area
I found a trap
Discovered a danger or obstacle
Got my sword and ocarina
Equipped with necessary and useful tools
To fend off hordes of awful demons
Protecting against evil creatures with violent means
If you gonna think you can get through me
Challenging anyone who believes they can defeat the singer
Then you can get on my deku seeds
Inviting competition to try and best the artist
And deku stick, I beat you with
Using a weapon to overpower an opponent
Ya'll are fake, I see you in my
Exposing insincerity and falsehood
Lens of truth
An object used to reveal the truth of things
Then I grew
Became older and more experienced
Into a man
Matured from a boy to an adult
With the song of time
An ability to manipulate time with music
Song of time?
Expressing enthusiasm for the power of time-manipulation
That's my jam
Excitedly enjoying the song
Make it rain Rupees cause I can
Spending money frivolously
Look at all my clothes, you say I'm flossing
Showing off clothing accessories
Red, Blue, Green to slay the bosses
Using different colors to defeat various enemies
And I love these hoes
Expressing love for certain individuals
Zelda and Saria yo
Listing beloved characters
Ganondorf ain't got this swag
Asserting superiority over a villain
Light arrows go in his ass
Attacking an enemy with a certain weapon in a specific location
Watch me pass
Confidently succeeding
On my ride
Riding a horse
Got my Epona tonight
Riding a specific named horse
Zombies in the Hyrule field
Describing an enemy in a specific location
Without a shield
Not protected with a defensive item
Now to deal
Preparing to confront the enemy
My hookshot!
Excitedly invoking the name of a useful tool
Din's fire looking hot!
Complimenting the beauty or effectiveness of a special attack
Fairies what I should've got
Expressing regret for not acquiring an item earlier
Man, these hearts are not enough
Feeling unsatisfied with the amount of health available
Make it rain with stormy songs
Using music to produce a desired effect
Owl is talking way too long
Impatiently waiting for a character to finish speaking
Hurry up! No time to chat
Encouraging others to move quickly and stay focused
Cause I got a deadline to find my way back.
Stressing the importance of returning to a certain place in time
Minus the fact I got my keys
Confirming possession of a necessary item
Make it to the next room, lost for weeks
Describing a difficult challenge
Watching me
Feeling observed or monitored
Like Poe's ghost
Comparing someone's gaze to a famous ghost
Bout to kill the boss, I'm so close
Excitedly approaching the end of a challenge
Now I am defending
Taking a stance to protect something
The Kingdom from the henchmen
Fighting against evil underlings
I want it on my pendant
Expressing desire for a particular object to be added to an accessory
The Triforce on my necklace
Describing an ideal decoration
I Thought I could
Mistakenly thinking something was possible
Find a way out
Attempting to escape from a difficult situation
Any day now
Anticipating a resolution
I Take a left
Making a directional decision
I Take a right
Choosing another direction
I Take a step
Making progress in a journey
I see the light
Discovering a positive aspect or exit
Bouncing back, no game over
Recovering from a setback
Yeah you know bombing all these big ass boulders
Using explosives to clear a path
Don't mess with me
Asserting dominance and confidence
My master sword
Referring to a powerful weapon
Is the best you see
Asserting the superiority of the weapon
My energy is 30 hearts
Describing the level of health available
So we got a long time
Expecting a significant period of time to complete a task
Before I start
Referring to a time of action
Bombchu coming at your feet
Threatening to use a damaging item
About to get the mask you see
Preparing to take an object
I got the stone of agony
Acquiring an important item
I'm glad to be your majesty
Showing respect to a ruler
The hero of the odyssey
Describing oneself as a legendary hero
Death mountain isn't this hot
Commenting on the climate of a location
Medallions on my wristwatch
Having collected significant achievements
I'm about to snap
Becoming overwhelmed with emotion
I feel the power
Sensing the energy and strength available
Spin around once
Performing a simple action to activate power
You're going downwards
Causing an enemy to fall
