The author would have probably been blown away to hear that Map17's music -almost- made it into the real game! Pretty much every MIDI here is present in Dwango 1-6 or any other prevelant 90's wads.

***************************AWESOMUS.WAD for DOOM 2****************************     
                                by Greg Kegel
     
     I just thought I tell you that this is my very first PWAD for any DOOM      
game.  It is, I'll admit, a very simple, music only addition... but I'm still 
proud of it. This PWAD will replace ALL the music tracks in id software's Doom ][. 
That's right, 35 all new tracks for your playing and listening pleasure. The 
songs range from NIN's "Head Like A Hole," to Led Zepplin's "Kashmir."  And 
they really do mix well with the Doom2 levels.
     I built the wad using Deutex  3.4, a great tool, and Midi2mus.  Some of 
the songs were downloaded from AOL and others were from various sources, to 
whom I give credit later in this file.  Thanx again for trying it out!

In case you're having trouble identifying some of the songs, here's a list:

You may have noticed an abundancy of NIN songs.  There are a couple reasons
for this.  One, the band kicks butt.  And two, it almost seems as if Trent Reznor
wrote the songs especially for Doom--check out "Head Like a Hole." I am planning
on making an all Nine Inch Nails music wad for Doom ][, but I need more songs
if you can get any, and I mean ANY NIN song, send it to me at my AOL address:
EISS9@aol.com   Note: any other good songs you come across would be cool too.
(I'm looking for "More Human Than Human" by White Zombie, or any Bush songs.)
Thanks.

Most of the credit goes to the guys I learned from. This    
includes Dan Kirkpatrick, creator of the D2ROK.WAD v1.0; Ryan Shull, for the 
great Metallica songs; and Warren , one of the best MIDI sequencers out there.    
    
    Just some technical stuff before I leave you: This wad is NOT asscociated    
with Id software in any way shape or form, you got problems, you come to me;    
this wad is freeware, that means you can do what ever the heck you want 
with it, BUT... this file has to be with it.  If it's not, you will die.
