Like it's just boring, busy work for him. Lol I've listened to last podcast on the left while playing doom before. Kind of a good time tbh :D 1 Share this post Link to post
stochastic Posted July 17, 2018 I almost always listen to the ingame MIDI's, especially if it's a PWAD. Most of the time, the MIDI choice for each map is deliberate, and enhances my playing experience. However, I will occasionally jam these two records and find that they fit the game perfectly. 4 Share this post Link to post
Xegethra Posted July 21, 2018 I also just leave it to what the WAD offers, but in the base games I might swap out the soundtrack with a mod with some new music in it. I never listen to anything externally from the WAD, can't really be bothered. 0 Share this post Link to post
CasualScrub Posted July 21, 2018 Usually I'm listening to a podcast or similar. It's not that I'm against listening to the in-game music, but I just prefer to have something more... I guess "substantial" to listen to, for lack of a better word. 0 Share this post Link to post
Maser Posted July 21, 2018 For some reason last night when I was playing Doom 2, the map "Barrels o' Fun" was giving me trouble and pissing me off. Which sucks because that's one of my favorite levels. Anyways, this song sure helped me through it! 1 Share this post Link to post
Nevanos Posted July 21, 2018 Quite a lot I listen to playing Doom, preferably ambient music. 0 Share this post Link to post
Doomarineactivated Posted July 25, 2018 Any soundtrack from any Doom game. Sometimes I'll be in the mood for classic, sometimes new. 0 Share this post Link to post
SoulSphere Posted July 25, 2018 I usually just listen to the music in the game. But I used to listen to rap songs while playing it long ago when I was younger. But lately just the music in the game is perfect 0 Share this post Link to post
Archanhell Posted July 25, 2018 I honestly listen to the music on the mods I'm playing, but if I need more hype then Anime OSTs or Videogame music of sagas such as BlazBlue or The Witcher. Shin Megami Tensei and Persona music fits good too. 0 Share this post Link to post
Britney_the_King Posted July 25, 2018 Honestly, I just listen to the soundtracks of Doom I & II. It makes me want to dance lmao 2 Share this post Link to post

Black Star Posted July 26, 2018 Something ambient. Either the PSX or N64 soundtrack or something by Lustmord or anything in that vein. On occasion I'll load up some death metal, since I grew up listening to Morbid Angel and King Diamond (not DM but still) when I would play Doom as a young 'un. 1 Share this post Link to post

Archanhell Posted July 26, 2018 Just noticed how BlazBlue's music "Open The Gate" fits well with a few DooM maps. 0 Share this post Link to post

And while the solemn darkness of their music is contrasted heavily against the arcadey, sometimes cartoony nature of Doom, I think both offerings convey chaotic evil and a deep sense of dread quite well... hence why I occasionally enjoy them together. 0 Share this post Link to post
Martin Howe Posted July 29, 2018 Often none at all; music in games makes sense for the original non-immersive 2D games of the past as they're kinda jokey, but for something serious and near-3D? I mean, do the SAS listen to Kerrang Thrash Metal Radio when storming embassies and the like? Probably not :p If a PWAD has music I may give it a try, otherwise for me it's MAP07 or E3M1 music depending on how "dark" my mood is. For mapping, no preference, whatever I'm into at the time. 0 Share this post Link to post
geo Posted July 29, 2018 Gun shots and monsters dying! The first few PCs I played Doom on had no midi... just sounds. 1 Share this post Link to post
Doge Sword Posted August 2, 2018 I just use IDMUS to get to the best music in the wad... I would listen to other stuff but it covers up the sounds that I need to hear, like a cyberdemon roaring because he is going to kill me. 0 Share this post Link to post
Maytria Posted August 5, 2018 Either a video by a content creator that I like, KMFDM, or Rammstein. 0 Share this post Link to post
Deleted_Account Posted August 5, 2018 (edited) Generally I'll listen to the music of Doom/Doom II/Final Doom or whatever tracks are supplied with the WAD. I especially enjoy the pulse pounding music of Aubrey Hodges (My favorite). As of late I've been listening to a lot dark ambient tracks from Iron Cthulhu Apocalypse. I find that it really immerses me into the gameplay of Doom, and especially the original Quake. Other times I'll listen to a playlist featuring some of my favorite bands and artists - NIN, Skinny Puppy, Ministry, Aphex Twin. And when I am mapping I enjoy listening to a good podcast or audiobook. Edited August 5, 2018 by Ex Oblivione 1 Share this post Link to post
PeterMoro Posted August 5, 2018 Andrew Hulshult's covers of the D1 + D2 soundtrack are pretty amazing and inspiring. 0 Share this post Link to post
beanz Posted August 5, 2018 I don't remember where I got it, but I like to throw an "expansion" of sorts of Demonsteele's "nowthatswhatIcallmidi" pk3. It has more pop songs than the original, and the midi renditions of them are still pretty good. They sound nice when using Sound Canvas VA as the midi driver. Here's the file in case anyone might now or wants to listen to it. 3rdUnofficial-nowthatswhaticallmidi-expansion.zip 0 Share this post Link to post
