alone in my bedroom playing doom. and 5 minutes later to play deathmatch with my friends because this game is too skawwy omg not clickbait gone wrong almost died 2020 no virusadsouphfnapsiudhfpu
To be honest this track fits the theme of Classic Doom perfectly. You're a lone space marine stranded in the cold darkness of space, desperately trying to survive by scavenging supplies and learning the truth behind the demonic invasion. Not saying the rocking metallic soundtrack is bad, but that should've been reserved for Doom II where you're literally declaring an all-out war against the forces of Hell to save planet Earth.
+The Ugly Barnacle The original soundtrack fits more from a gameplay standpoint, but I also prefer the PS1 music over the original because I like to take my time on each level
It's a interessing point of view. This soundtrack it's inside of Dark Ambient Music and it's so appropriate to describe this situation. Totally in agreement with you
I would like to see a test: Basically, first group of players play the first level through with this music playing and the other group plays through the first level with the original Doom music playing in the background. It's to see if level completion times vary between groups.
For me, with this kind of music playing, I would take my time checking every corner for monsters waiting to strike me from behind, and slowly approach doors even though I know E1M1 like the back of my hand.
I’m appreciating how wholesome this comment section is. Just a lot of folks saying how good both the original PC soundtrack and the PSX soundtrack are, and the different vibes they give off.
@@alexanderklein4118 In Doom, the demons are afraid of you. The longer the Icon of Sin is on Earth, the stronger he becomes. You cannot just shoot a hole into the surface of Mars.
Interesting note: the Williams team (as they were at the time) knew how inconvenient and expensive multiplayer was on PSX and, in those days, there was no way to get useful data about how many people actually did it. So they focused on the single-player experience. Hence the creepy vibe.
I'll be honest, my first experience with Doom was the PSX version. It gave a very strong impression of horror. Combined with the fact I read the manual about the story and it did feel scary as hell. Years later I got the PC Shareware version of Doom 1 and wondered why things were so different. It wasn't till years later until I got Doom 1 and 2 in full, along with Brutal Doom that I found out more about the differences between the ports compared to the PC versions. To me, both the PC and PSX soundtracks are very valid interpretations of one and the same. One takes a music and metal approach, which give something of a power trip in some vein even in the face of major odds. The PSX version puts some emphasis on horror and some will feel that more than others. I liked it and the sound effects from that version, to the point sometimes I play Doom 1 or 2 with the sounds and music. I like them both, and the PSX Doom menu music is one that's left an impression. My rambling two cents for what it's worth.
I think this overlooks the fact that there are some seriously eerie tunes in the PC soundtrack as well. Levels 3 and 5 of the first episode come to mind.
This just shows exactly how much power a soundtrack can have in a video game. Soundtracks are usually taken for granted by most people saying that they're not as important as other assets. One simple swap of a soundtrack can COMPLETELY change the entire tone and atmosphere of the game
It wasn't just music that was swapped, but lighting and sound effects. Nonetheless your point still stands - music is very powerful used correctly, and highly underestimated especially in the modern age.
For me, this is my favorite Doom soundtrack. The music gave a real sense of isolation. I would stay up late playing doom in the dark, with my headset on, to keep from waking my girlfriend, and this just played right into that tense atmosphere. I totally get those who liked the rockin' original soundtrack more. It creates a different feel for the action, especially in the later levels. For me, these dark foreboding tracks juxtaposed with the crazy action on the later levels was especially jarring. You'd finish killing fifty demons, and when it all quieted down, that creepy music was still reminding you that you're alone in hell. The most disturbing, for me, was Mt Erebus, where the background music included the occasional sound of a baby crying. That was messed up. Thanks for posting this!
I 100 percent agree with all this as a kid I had no idea of different soundtracks and thought doom was supposed to have this chilling horror and atmosphere.
PC Doom soundtrack: kicking some ass as the legendary Doomguy! Hell yeah! PSX/N64 Doom soundtrack: you, a mere human, trying to survive against countless armies of demons, all alone...
"Only you and your shotgun against endless horde of demons" I love the PC-version of the soundtrack(brutal and kickassing), but the PSX-version more suitable DOOM atmosphere - atmosphere of horror, mystery and hopelessness.
This was the first version of Doom that I played, and I thought it was amazing. The opening hangar, with this really atmospheric, creepy, and menacing music really lent a feeling of isolation and fear to the game. I'd seen it on PC a while back, but never paid much attention, so when I finally played on a PC at a friends house, I was startled at how camp the game felt with the original music and sounds. It really shows how which version of the game you played first, really shaped your idea of what the game was about. I think most people who played the game on the PS1 first, approached it with more caution, simply because of the different background music. An excellent adaptation, even if they left a few monsters and levels out.
You could take this piece and put it with any horror film ever made, and it would instantly elevate the scene it's paired with. It's perfection, and its a shame that no modern horror titles today even get close, 20 years on.
This soundtrack described in vocabulary x3: *The deep atmosphere coming from this very track tells you of a story on how unforgiving, desolate and unwelcoming, this piece is and will not be as willingful as one can believe. The sounds, of this piece, tears down your spine and bubbles your skin as if you could feel the cold, rotten air, that lingers within the walls of the abandoned Hangar, settle on your pimpled flesh. This is not just music; This is a grisly, audible, tale that there is no more badass music, or a dead bunny, to drive you home...nothing to motivate you towards your goal. Instead...you are forced to survive through a twisted, and fateful, puragatory of darkness. This is Doom...Aubrery Hodges' vision...of Doom.* I salute! :9
i feel like the more horror like ambience and feel of the ps1 doom was made because they knew the game wouldn't be as fast as the pc version, so instead of feeling like a badass space marine intent on spilling the blood of your enemies you are a dude stuck there trying your best to survive all alone
I have this over the shoulder memory of playing this one summer when it was brilliant sunshine outside, this soundtrack gave playing this overwhelming sense of loneliness, like I was the only one playing this ancient, even way back then game.
no words can describe the awesomeness of this track. it really emphasises that you're all alone on another planet, millions of miles away from civilisation and that you'll receive no help from anyone. it's just you, your pistol and wits against the forces of hell.
POV: It's late at night, all your friends are offline. Everyone inside your house is asleep, and the room you're in is completely dark except for your computer screen lighting up your face in the darkness. You know you should go to bed, but some weird force is making you feel uneasy about it. This "song" fits it perfectly.
+ßłâҝě Ťĥê Ĥêđĥęħǿğ (Иâмêłêšš) I don't think so. Both have a nice charme to them. But the ps1 soundtrack fits the scenario way better. That's for sure.
I think the PSX Doom is my favorite port of the game, just because of the music. Sure,the original had great music, but this really builds a tense atmosphere that keeps you on edge.
The PC version soundtrack is great, but to be honest...I'm stunned with this one. It's so claustrophobic, depressing and menacing, it tops up the game to its finest. A cherry on top :)
So manies memories on the psx version. I was children. This is my favorite Doom. Now, many years later, it also reminds me Doom Sunlust, the map God Machine. I would have known the different generations of Doom.
These tracks especially this one here remind me of the television show Unsolved Mysteries. This is really frightening music with the banging sound in the background. I would never want to hear this in the woods at night.
That show scared the living hell out of me as a kid. I am not kidding when I say some of those episodes still upset me to think about. But the music, especially the theme song, didn't help either.
It's 2024, and you about to fear the ultimate weapon, a weapon that could destroys everyone on the surface of the earth. Not only the surface, Time and Space as well.
This brings back fantastic memories. Doom is a quality game, but the music really makes it even more sinister. Thanks for this and I'm going to dust off my PS1 copy and start playing again.
Weirdly, even though I played (or rather, watched my dad play) both the PC and PlayStation versions, the PS version's soundtrack was the one that stuck with me until I finally played the classics again on the Xbox port of Doom 3. All those years I'd had this memory of Doom being this dark, terrifying horrorshow with scary minimalist music (well, that and the fact that the Pinky demons and especially the Lost Souls terrified little me). So imagine my shock when I fire up Doom on my Xbox as a teenager and am blasted with "At Doom's Gate", haha :D I really love both soundtracks, though. When I play on PC (I play the Xbox 360 ports on my XB1 too, especially for No Rest For The Living), sometimes I'll be in the mood for the classic soundtrack, and sometimes I'll be in the mood for this creeping dread.
It's amazing how by changing the music from badass metal to dark ambience (Among other things) that Williams ltd were able to turn 'Doom' from epic demon slaying action to an atmospheric shooter. Then there's 'Doom 64'... So yeah, People wanting epic badassery could go with PC, whilst People wanting horror could go with the PSX port or the N64 sequel. And PC owners nowadays have ways of going with the latter. 'Doom' PSX TC and 'Doom 64 EX', anyone?
Thanks for posting this super great Doom soundtrack. I am playing BFG edition on the PS3. However, Doom remains a classic forever and is still big fun to play. This game and Duke Nukem 3D launched me really into it. Happy days.
doom and Devil May Cry the first one had some of the best and creepiest Atmosphere Music I've ever heard in a video game definitely two of my favorite games
Most people think about rumble and shootouts versus demons under rock soundtrack when they hear "Doom", when i hear "Doom" i think mostly of atmosphere bringed by PSX Doom and Doom 3 - you only one left, and you cut out from your people, the only way out is through the unknown, through hell itself, with only your shotgun. You are literally doomed, thus, game name.
Ooh *shudder* this brings back memories. For I remember the name of the stage that goes with this cool but horrifying music, its called Barrels of Fun... Its full of barrels of gas and you gotta be extra careful that you do not fire if your surrounded by barrels of gas. And the creepy sight is that the sky is bloody crimson and full of fleshy dead skulls.
PC: KILL EVERYTHING YOU SEE WHILE THIS KICKASS TUNE PLAYS PS1/DOOM64: *Check your corners. Dont look behind you. Nobody's going to save you. You're on your own.*
I know original PC purists won't have it, but tbh I never liked that tinny, metal music. It just irritated me within a couple of minutes of listening to it. The only Doom I play on PC now is the version with the PSX music files. It utterly transforms the game and turns it into an atmospheric, dread-filled experience.
I loved the music, sad it was forgotten in the recent years, but still it should be remembered what Doom should be experienced alongside all the other SFX that the Playstation had that no other format had (except 64 version)
i am going to be listing to this music from now on, while remapping the doom 2 levels as this style of the creepy side of doom has been forgotten over time and through new mods, this has to be some of the best music in any game related to there own title hands down, this is what separated doom from the rest of the games.
"PC Doom would be like.... yeah, shooting demons, find key card, next level!" "PS1 Doom would be like.... I'm alone with a bunch of scary monsters, I'm too scared that the monsters will find me, I need to find weapons and fight through so I can get the hell out of this place alive."
Doom pc music: here’s some badass 80’s rock to motivate you to go kill a bunch of demons, nothing stands in your way! Doom ps1 music: you are going to die, your only friends to embrace are the demons and the voices in the dark.
Problem is, demons should feel DOOMED when facing Doomguy. Not the other way around. PS1 version ost sucks and only the kids who couldn't play the real Doom like this shit.
@@jigendaisuke8962 Not true. Just like many things, Doom can be interpreted in many paces. The fast paced rock music of the PC or the hopelessness and darkness of the PS1 version. I grew up with the PS1 version and I have played the PC version, too, several times. I like both. There is a thing called opinions, even if this is a 3 year old comment.
Like Caddicarus said, you're alone, with nobody to help you and forced to survive the onslaught of enemies coming to kill you. Every corner you cross could be your last.
Romero and Carmack should get more credit for what they did. Some noname idiots who achieved nothing have streets and other public venues named in their honour.. Romero and Carmack should get the recognition they simply deserve. They changed the idea of entertainment for tens of millions of people on this planet.
They did, back in the day. Read Masters of Doom. Unfortunately, modern gaming has become more about cutscenes and corridors. Some of the fun has been engineered out of games.
The PC was soooooo bad that I had to turn it offwhile playing. Then way later on a friend of mine showed the ps1 version and yuk! But damn the music was so nice and fitting. He burned the music on a CD and gave it me. I would then play the PC version of Doom and have the PS1 Doom music running in the background. It made the game more imersive scary

The Saturn port also has this soundtrack I guess, since its based on the PS1 port. Sadly is no match against the latter.

That's a very fascinating experiment.
For me, with this kind of music playing, I would take my time checking every corner for monsters waiting to strike me from behind, and slowly approach doors even though I know E1M1 like the back of my hand.

I listen to this while driving in Memphis. This was my first Doom experience.
Best port by far. And + with Final Doom.

I think this overlooks the fact that there are some seriously eerie tunes in the PC soundtrack as well. Levels 3 and 5 of the first episode come to mind.
@@holden6104 While those do paint an interesting atmosphere, you have you admit, they are a bit still light-hearted, y'know?
@Space Vatnik It had it where it counts. Weapon sounds.
How can just a bunch of notes evoke such a strong emotion inside of me even words and actions can't describe
Of all the Doom soundtracks the PS1's and the N64's were the best for immersing you in the situation you found yourself in.
I've never heard anything like this when it comes to DOOM. If only more composers took this approach.
This just shows exactly how much power a soundtrack can have in a video game. Soundtracks are usually taken for granted by most people saying that they're not as important as other assets. One simple swap of a soundtrack can COMPLETELY change the entire tone and atmosphere of the game

Never has a soundtrack so fundamentally changed a genre defining game for the better.
Thumbs up if back in the day you would just stop fpr a moment and just listen to the music.

What the demons hear trying to hide from Doomguy.
No lie, but this has to be the most atmospheric OST for any PS1 shooter

I would never want to hear this in the woods at night.
That show scared the living hell out of me as a kid. I am not kidding when I say some of those episodes still upset me to think about. But the music, especially the theme song, didn't help either.
This soundtrack really makes you feel like you are "Doomed".
Aghh the classic ambiance of doom, brings back some fond memories..
DOOM on DOS: Im alone, Thats not a problem!
DOOM on PS1: Im alone...
1st time I played the PS1 version, I was expecting that heavy SNES like music to hit!
It's 2024, and you about to fear the ultimate weapon, a weapon that could destroys everyone on the surface of the earth. Not only the surface, Time and Space as well.
This brings back fantastic memories. Doom is a quality game, but the music really makes it even more sinister. Thanks for this and I'm going to dust off my PS1 copy and start playing again.
Playing Doom on PSX as a kid made me terrified. All because of this music. The other ports were all too upbeat to be scary.

Such an amazing soundtrack this is. Its Outstanding.
The psx music haunted my childhood.
Truly terrifying and when I think of the word Hell, Psx doom always springs to mind.

You are literally doomed, thus, game name.
And doom 64?
If you really wanna do a try not to get scared challenge, have this soundtrack playing while you're sitting in a dark room.
Sets the scene so well. Foreboding and sinister. :)
The oppressive crushing dread of being truly...
... Alone...
What a dark and foreboding theme.
There is something foreboding lurking around the corner, I can hear it breathing.
Doom in PS1 is my personal definitive experience for Doom.
Quando ero piccolo in quei anni 90 su psx facevo fatica a giocarlo. Avevo troppa paura.
2020 and this is still sublime.

Drone of Dread ambience conveys the hellish atmosphere much better than the PC MIDI metal.
This track sounds like something you hear in the Terminator movies whenever we see the aftermath of judgment day.
eerie, lonely, melancholy. perfect for doom.

I wish you could play with this soundtrack in recent ports of Doom 1. I love the PC soundtrack, but this one is so atmospheric.

I know original PC purists won't have it, but tbh I never liked that tinny, metal music. It just irritated me within a couple of minutes of listening to it.
The only Doom I play on PC now is the version with the PSX music files. It utterly transforms the game and turns it into an atmospheric, dread-filled experience.
Doom PC music: "Yeah, lets makes some motherfuckin' demon stew!"
Doom Ps1 music: "Oh shit... I'm all alone... With a pistol... I'm screwed..."
I loved the music, sad it was forgotten in the recent years, but still it should be remembered what Doom should be experienced alongside all the other SFX that the Playstation had that no other format had (except 64 version)
i am going to be listing to this music from now on, while remapping the doom 2 levels as this style of the creepy side of doom has been forgotten over time and through new mods, this has to be some of the best music in any game related to there own title hands down, this is what separated doom from the rest of the games.
who gets feeling of middle of abandoned city while listening this? or a apocalpytic area?
The greatest Doom soundtrack ever!
At Ridiculously Creepy Shit's Gate
"The keycards, Taggart! Tell us what they mean!" (c) Call Of Dooty mod interogation scene (Uses this track)
Ha ha, honestly one of the best uses of stuff like this to begin with.
Original Doom OST: Lets kill demons
PS Doom OST: Lets scare and kill marines
"PC Doom would be like.... yeah, shooting demons, find key card, next level!" "PS1 Doom would be like.... I'm alone with a bunch of scary monsters, I'm too scared that the monsters will find me, I need to find weapons and fight through so I can get the hell out of this place alive."
💯💯💯💯💯
very Twin Peaks.. if you listen to "Dark Mood Woods (Full Version)" for example.
Doom pc music: here’s some badass 80’s rock to motivate you to go kill a bunch of demons, nothing stands in your way!
Doom ps1 music: you are going to die, your only friends to embrace are the demons and the voices in the dark.
I find this quite frightening. It just makes me feel like I am actually DOOMED. Ya know? Haha!!!!
Problem is, demons should feel DOOMED when facing Doomguy. Not the other way around.
PS1 version ost sucks and only the kids who couldn't play the real Doom like this shit.
@@jigendaisuke8962 Not true. Just like many things, Doom can be interpreted in many paces. The fast paced rock music of the PC or the hopelessness and darkness of the PS1 version. I grew up with the PS1 version and I have played the PC version, too, several times. I like both. There is a thing called opinions, even if this is a 3 year old comment.
Like Caddicarus said, you're alone, with nobody to help you and forced to survive the onslaught of enemies coming to kill you. Every corner you cross could be your last.
Listened to this through headphones in the dark with my eyes closed. I honestly didn't feel scared; Just lost and alone, broken but determined.
This song gives me creeps when im playing alone...PS1 is the most scariest ambience I've ever heard...I love version PS1 anyway.
And with the first note of this music, my life changed forever. I was John Romero's bitch - and Aubrey Hodges'.
Romero and Carmack should get more credit for what they did. Some noname idiots who achieved nothing have streets and other public venues named in their honour.. Romero and Carmack should get the recognition they simply deserve. They changed the idea of entertainment for tens of millions of people on this planet.
They did, back in the day. Read Masters of Doom. Unfortunately, modern gaming has become more about cutscenes and corridors. Some of the fun has been engineered out of games.
Best doom soundtrack collection ever by Aubrey Hodges.
If Doom had the soundtrack to Resident Evil
I'd say that goes to the BFG warm-up sound. It's the best thing you can hear during gameplay.
The face Doomguy makes sure is appropriate with this music.
the much improved fx sounds contributes to the game experience. the shotgun sound is the best in game history
Ese Soundtrack te hace sentir que estás en el infierno, adecuado para DOOM.
This music helps me calm down. Is there something wrong with me?
I liked both the PC action type music, and this more horror style. Both have their places, but after this I prefer the horror style.
The PC was soooooo bad that I had to turn it offwhile playing. Then way later on a friend of mine showed the ps1 version and yuk! But damn the music was so nice and fitting. He burned the music on a CD and gave it me. I would then play the PC version of Doom and have the PS1 Doom music running in the background.
It made the game more imersive scary
This is the best ost of doom
