      Doom Kar en Tuk Music And Behind Scene i need Reaction

    •  2 года назад +6

      A little bit off-topic, but it's id Software pronounced as the word "it" but with a d (/ɪd/). Not like I.D. And Doom 2016 is more like a reboot than a sequel... I think. And I hope you'll react to more Mick Gordon greatness!!! The whole Doom 2016 and Eternal soundtrack is pure perfection! And yes, Eternal had other composers too for the DLCs, they are good too!

      Most everything in Killer Instinct. Jago's theme and Omens theme would be a sick double-feature. Those two songs kinda go together.
      If you choose to listen to them here's a little fu fact: Mick went to Tibet to train Throat singing from monkt for Jago's theme.

    I will never forget, before becoming a game designer/dev myself, working in gaming retail, and a teen coming in and just wanting an honest recommendation for a new game to play. I was flattered he would just buy a game solely off of my opinion, so I gushed about DOOM 2016, and the music in particular. I didn’t see him for awhile after that, and when he finally came back in, he just said a few words: “I can’t stop playing it, man. Dude…”BFG Division” man. Thank you.”

    As many times as I have played both of these games and listen to this soundtrack I can't believe I just now am realizing that Mick Gordon not only took soundtracks and third party media outside of Cinema to a new level but also composing of music itself because not only did he have to mainline a eight-string lead guitar but also had to have the guitar neck custom made wider to accommodate the two extra strings making hitting certain notes even harder due to the distance being further away from your fingertips because of the wider neck. I am now convinced Mick Gordon has earned his place in the pantheon of Legends in his genre and also has earned the right to stand shoulder to shoulder with artists that I consider inspirations and milestones in the development of rock and roll as a whole.

There's one louder one that's playing a more classic rock 1-3 kick snare pattern, and one quieter one that's driving straight 12/8/triplets to support the guitar and bass transients.

    Awesome breakdown! You should check out Mick Gordon's Cinder's Theme (Inferno), it's for another video game remake from the 90's called Killer Instinct. I believe he was a collaborator on the soundtrack for season 1 and 2 of Killer Instinct (2013)

    While Mick's Doom soundtrack is absolutely stellar, I feel like his soundtrack for Wolfenstein: The New Order is severely underrated, it barely gets talked about despite being just as excellent as Doom's (just less metal overall)

  • @marks7192

    Even from the earliest days of DooM the music has always been in our faces. We all thought it was 'beyond' back then. Not only does id Software just push your desktop systems to the graphic redline but the music production has just kept in toe with their awesome FPS gameplay.

    I think that the guitar silence during the clean snare hits of this song are very smart. Both the guitar and snare are punchy AF in their own alternating time. It almost feels like the guitar is sidechained to the snare

    If you want more Mick goodness I would recommend Killer Instinct's "Hinnamatoom" or "Warlord". I also would like to second the notion of everyone saying Guilty Gear Strive's character songs, i would recommend from that one "Alone Infection" and "Let Me Carve Your Way". Amazing reaction as always.

    Hey Tony great reaction! One thing I would love to suggest you react to is "The Rain Formerly Known As Purple" by Chris Christodoulou. Its a soundtrack for a game called Risk of Rain 2 and was inspired by Prince's 'Purple Rain'. It's just under 8 min long so its a long one but its good.

    Just a quick thing for you it's not "I.D. Software" it's "Id Software" like the Id and Ego from Freud's psychoanalytic theory. The Id was theorised to be the primate and instinctual part of the mind. Which definitely fits the kind of games they make!

    I know its a bit different but about a year ago someone made a video dissecting the music from the earliest to most recent doom games and how its evolved over the years. Its called "Understanding the music of doom' by Liam Triforce. Its a pretty in depth video and I think you'd enjoy it.

    I'd like to point out that the synth on this track sounds like a rework of 'the demon's dead' from doom 2, itself a rework of 'after all(the dead)' by black Sabbath.

I was worried the soundtrack would be a little too heavy for me, at least while working, but happy to report that this song A) has become one of my favourite songs of all time and B) I get into some of my best "flow" when this song comes on.

    For 60 bucks you get a Mick Gordon album that comes with a free game!
    The really amazing part is that the song is composed in segments so it can cue up to the action of the game. Since each player will play the game different, the style and tempo segments match what you are doing in the game then.

    Yessss, I'm glad you did (IMO) the best songs from each game. As I said on the other video's comments section, Doom 2016 with this and the entire OST blew my mind with the music, but Eternal's evolution blew it all over again with All They Fear Is You, Meathook and even I think there was BFG Division II or something.. Both amazing OSTs.
    Do Blood Swamps from DOOM Eternal's first DLC, its a good song example of when a game has to change to another artist and try to find someone worthy of the original music.. And they chose the only person who could come close, Andrew Hulshult.
