Kada Posted September 7, 2003 Last night I finished a pretty cool remake of the E1M1 music from Doom. Basically it's Bobby Prince meets Front Line Assembly, but I tried to be a little more original than that.... I think I managed to capture some of that 80's synth/club sound a little bit :) Equipment used: Yamaha DX7, Yamaha CS1x, Roland U220, Roland R8, Akai S3000XL, Lexicon MPX-200. Mixing through Behringer MX1604 and recorded with Sound Blaster Live 1024. Sequenced with Cubase SX. Anyway, if anyone's interrested, here's the URL to download the music: http://karantan.fegis.nu/tmp/mp3/e1m1.mp3 Hope you like it and feel free to post any comments about it :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Vile Posted September 8, 2003 Funny, but this sounds like what Doom would be like if it were a side scroller. Nice remix, should send it to the OC. :) 0 Share this post Link to post
dsm Posted September 8, 2003 Pretty cool remix, but as vile said, it sounds a bit side-scrollerish and definitely not like a fitting Doom track. Imo it suffers from the same problem that Epiclore's track did: it uses sounds from the game mixed into the track. The last death scream is cool, but the other places in the track where the Doom sounds are used are more like annoying interferences imo. 0 Share this post Link to post
Little Faith Posted September 8, 2003 I humbly disagree. Surely it sounds more arcadish (as most electro/EBM) tends to when used for gaming music bit I believe that such could fit to an FPS too. This is one of the more well-made Doom remixes. Almost up besides the Overclocked E1M5 remix. 0 Share this post Link to post

Almost up besides the Overclocked E1M5 remix. I never said it didn't fit with any fps - but it's not the best for a game like Doom where scare factor is the way to go - having said that, I am also quite aware that a larger number of Doom tracks are too arcadey to actually fit Doom. A few examples are: E1M9/E3M9 and Doom 2 map04. And yeap, it's definitely a good remix - but whether it's one of the better is something I won't comment on, because that's always subject to discussion. 0 Share this post Link to post
Kinsie Posted September 8, 2003 Reminds me of the Stalker remix from PSX Duke3d. Good work! 0 Share this post Link to post
Julian Posted September 8, 2003 Nice work. The drums could use some tweaking imo... not intense enough. 0 Share this post Link to post
myk Posted September 8, 2003 Sounds kick-ass. You might want to add some info on the file (either the file name or internally, or both) or else we'll forget who made it and whatnot. 0 Share this post Link to post
BlueSonnet Posted September 8, 2003 I'd say that the it doesn't suit gameplay not because of the music itself but the normal sfx in the background. It can be a bit annoying. As for saying that it doesn't suit doom (ie scarefactor) well i disagree there due to remembering what the midi soundtracks sounded like back in the earlier days. Of course it could just be me continueing to see doom as a bad-ass action game rather than a "soiled-underwear" game. :P But other than that it's a good remix and you can never get enough of them. Keep up the good work. ;) 0 Share this post Link to post
[W4GH4X] Posted September 13, 2003 Really is a good job, I too think to make a remake, some day. Edit: CUBASE SX is excelent! 0 Share this post Link to post
Dunbar Posted September 13, 2003 Sounds good! Why not submit it to OCRemix.org? 0 Share this post Link to post
Donce Posted February 28, 2004 Sorry to bump an old thread, but I started downloading the doom remixes, and found out that the link to this one is broken. Some of you have downloaded the remix, so if someone could mirror it, or even e-mail it to me, I'd be grateful. 0 Share this post Link to post
SyntherAugustus Posted February 29, 2004 Dude, that IS a big ass bump. 0 Share this post Link to post
HeadShot Posted February 29, 2004 NOOOOOOOOO!!! WHY...I was going to do the same thing! See, me and my buddies are going to start a band (rock/metal) and I figured that we could remix some DOOM/DOOM II songs. But i'll be damned if someone didn't do the first song I wanted to do! O well...we can still do DOOM II's map 07 song, which I highly like as well. Maybe my group and you (Kada) can join forces to make a cool remix of the favorite songs of the Doomworld Forum members! Sweet...but i haven't listened to your remix yet, so I'll edit this post afterwards. 0 Share this post Link to post

A new thread on the subject would seem out of place (nope, I wouldn't have moved it, because it's still fan art related) and more of an annoyance than anything. After all, he did have something important to say rather than just another "This is cool music" comment. 0 Share this post Link to post
HeadShot Posted March 5, 2004 Sorry to revive an old thread, but I was asked a question that I feel I should at least answer. kristus said:Headshot: you mean like Jenova Gyra or whatever thye were called did? or countless other already done? Meh, um...Im not really sure who you are talking about when your talking about Jenova Gyra. Unfortunatly, North Carolina (in particular, Stokes County) doesn't have the best music choices. But what I was thinking of was more of a rock-style, bass+electric+keyboard+drums style with no lyrics (or maybe with lyrics). Btw, nice job Kada. Listened to it, and aside from the fact I feel some of the DOOM songs are slight copies of Metallica songs (Including E1M1, which sounds kinda like Master of Puppets, and another that sounds even more like MoP) and thus tend to associate them with Metallica music. Still, good job. Do some more so we can all enjoy classics turned into...um...classics...agian...[confused] 0 Share this post Link to post
