Ultimate DooM ReMixes

DooM - Now I'm Radioactive
Source: Suspence (E1M5)

   This remix was made once the Doom ReMix Project: The Dark Side
of Phobos was coming towards its finish. The track had already been 
filled, but I decided to give it a go anyway. It ended up being quite
repetative, but building towards to end. The result is a light and yet 
somehow dark sounding piece (go figure) featuring piano, strings, 
drums, pads and a bass synth. The title is from the DooM comic 
"10 Years of DooM"


DooM - Phobos Modulus

   This remix was my second attempt at remixing E1M7. This track 
used to be my favourite from the DooM OST because of how dark 
and foreboding it sounded. Plus I really enjoyed the level in the game 
when I was younger (Computer Station.) DooM levels don't come much
better than that one. This remix is more atmospheric than most of my 
others. I even supplied some vocal samples and breathing through the 
mix to solidify it. Enjoy!


DooM - Secrets and Lies
Source: Hiding the Secrets (E1M9)

   This was my first track chosen and made for The Dark Side of Phobos.
Much to the dismay of rock fans, I chose to completely change the genre 
on this one and made it atmospheric all the way. I think it turned out 
all right, although some of the beats were a bit rushed. But you can't 
please everybody. Listen at your own peril, E1M9 fans.

Featured Artist(s): Karl Harmdierks (Bladiator) - Piano

   This remix was made for The Dark Side of Phobos. The mix covers 
the more ambient side of DooM as Bladiator provides some beautifully 
played piano to accompany the plucking strings, harp, bass bells and 
trilling strings. The percussion in thepiece features a powerful kick 
soaked in crisp clear reverb as well as industrial sound-hits. 
As the piece develops, a more apparent beat sets in which is quickly accompanied by military drumming. The piece is in a waltz 
time-signature and is a remix of "The Waltz of the Demons (e2m7)."

DooM - Cyberdemon Awaketh

   This remix was originally intended to be on The Dark Side of Phobos. 
The piece ended up getting so large that it would crash my computer
whenever I tried to open it, so I had to drop it from the project. 
This is the final version I rendered before the piece screwed up. 
It's a quite dark sounding piece, even by my standards. I used a lot of distortion and reverb through it. The ending would've been much more
different and unique if I'd had the chance to work on it more.

   Somebody had to remix this one. While I couldn't figure out how to
introduce the piece, I knew what I wanted to do for that zany midsection 
and I pulled that half off precisely how I envisioned it. It's loud, it's 
messy, and it's nowhere near perfect. But it's impressed more than 
enough people that I consider it a success. Just skip the first minute 
or two if you don't like the atmospheric build-up.

DooM 2 ReMixes

   Not one of my best remixes. This was on of the first DooM remixes 
I made and the first DooM 2 remix. Before I obtained RMX for proper 
drums, I used default kits and poor samples. Still turned out all right, 
but not all it could be. 

Final DooM ReMixes

Final DooM - Clairvoyant Elegy
Source: Wormhole (Map 04)
Featured Artist(s): Karl Harmdierks (Bladiator) - Piano

   This remix is one of the older mixes that I worked on, and the
first one that I worked on with Bladiator. I originally intended for
this to be a rock piece featuring FIDGAF's guitarwork. He recorded
me an initial guitarline to use in the piece, however quickly
became too busy to complete the piece. I wanted to get it out of
the way, so I spontaneously requested Bladiator have a listen and
try to record some piano for me. Within a matter of days he had
sent me a waveform of live piano to which I slapped some effects
on and pasted onto the piece. It sounded so good that we ended
up extending the piece for an extra minute in length. The piece
is a remix of the Map04 music "Wormhole" from Final DooM.

Final Doom - Hung Like a Pinky
Source: Unknown

   Got a nice beat going and decided to shape it into a new Final Doom 
remix. This one is mixed a little quiet, so you'll have to boost your 
volume up quite a bit to get the full impact. I went for a "mad scientist" 
feel, inspired by the game "Lifeforce Tenka" and its soundtrack. 
The piano and music box play the melody from the original, while the
bassline flirts with the bassline melody of the source. 

Final Doom - Iron Demon

   This was my first accepted remix onto OCReMix. It's electronic making 
use of gated synths and bass-synths. Crunchy distorted drumloops 
make the majority of the mix backing and almost cost the mix a position 
on OCR. Still a favourite to listen to, although I've improved significantly
since I made this mix. 


Final DooM - Milagro del Demonio
Source: Unknown

   My first experiment with a truly odd time-signature, this time in 7/4. 
I'm a fan of Tool's music, and I wanted to start moving myself away 
from my dependence on 4/4 signatures. This was the result. I'm happy 
with how the melody and bassline turned out, although I think the drums
could have been a bit better. Still, live and learn. People seem to enjoy 
this one and it's one of my favourite DooM remixes that I've made.


Final DooM - River Styx

   I Made this a while ago. This is a remix of two very sparse pieces
from Final Doom (I'm running out of interesting pieces to remix from
that game.) This one consists of piano, mandolin, strings, accoustic
guitar, a couple other things (I'm writing this from memory.) Anyway,
it's a lot of reverb and compression, so if you like powerfully dark
sounding swing pieces, this is probably for you.
