mmarkie Posted January 25, 2016 I'm working on an original soundtrack for Doom and figured I'd share this song I just finished. Heavily inspired by E1M8, and I even threw in the melody at the end. https://soundcloud.com/mikedm92/phobos The track is looped once, I'm making all of them loopable so it'll work out in-game. Here are some other completed tracks: https://soundcloud.com/mikedm92/slaughter https://soundcloud.com/mikedm92/inferno https://soundcloud.com/mikedm92/deimos https://soundcloud.com/mikedm92/doomed 0 Share this post Link to post
Chezza Posted January 25, 2016 Sorry man but this would make a nice Quake 2 song instead :P 0 Share this post Link to post
Doom_Dude Posted January 25, 2016 That makes me want to play Quake 2. ;) It's very cool tho. :) 0 Share this post Link to post
SavageCorona Posted January 25, 2016 This does have a Sonic Mayhem quality to it. 0 Share this post Link to post
Doomkid Posted January 25, 2016 I too think this would be quite suitable for quake.. I just associate doom with late 80s thrash or ambiance. That 'deimos' track has a particularly quakeish sound, to my ears anyway. Cool stuff though :) 0 Share this post Link to post

Quake 1 and 2 had a very Industrial sound to them (NIN and everything) with various synths whereas this is just straight metal. As for thrashy, that's coming soon. Not all levels had thrashy music after all. 0 Share this post Link to post

It was all Sonic Mayhem. 0 Share this post Link to post
VGA Posted January 27, 2016 I only listened to Phobos and it is an excellent metal composition with good atmosphere for e1m8. I will check out the others, too, keep them coming. 0 Share this post Link to post

Whoa okay there. I know NIN didn't do the Quake 2 OST, I just worded the sentence poorly. And yes, I have played and beaten both games, in fact I have the original CD-ROMs for them. I also went back and listened to both OST's to try and see what you guys were talking about which is why I said I don't understand how you guys hear much similarity (other than the fact there are distorted guitars). 0 Share this post Link to post
VGA Posted January 27, 2016 Well it's just music so tastes and perceived influences vary widely. Most Doom-inspired music is more close to the originals. Quick thrash metal. How about the Doom 3 theme song? That's rather close to Phobos, hmm? 0 Share this post Link to post
Doomkid Posted January 27, 2016 Oh, I don't think it's overtly identical to Quake music or anything like that, I just think it seems to suit Quake's vibe a bit better than Doom's, that's all. I'm sure people will dig the tracks if you decide to use it as background music for a map you make or something like that, it's fairly common to see non-midi music in ZDoom wads these days. 0 Share this post Link to post

Fonze Posted January 28, 2016 I like metal with my Doom; I'd love to hear these in a map sometime! Doomed almost sounded like it could have been in the Slipknot album All Hope is Gone ^^ But my phone speaker sucks, so I couldn't hear much of the music in the Inferno track. Still, badass drums! 0 Share this post Link to post
mmarkie Posted February 11, 2016 Just finished and uploaded the 5th track. https://soundcloud.com/mikedm92/slaughter 0 Share this post Link to post
