Duke Nukem Jam HD - Music Video (OFFICIAL)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 окт 2024
- To celebrate the long awaited release of my HD version of the Duke Nukem Jam, I decided to have some fun with an attempt at a music video. The entire thing was shot in my garage by myself, with one camera, and is my first attempt at doing something like this. It was a massive undertaking and a great educational experience...oh yeah, and it was kind of fun too. ;).
For those new to the song, it's my rendition on guitar of the Duke Nukem theme song (Grabbag) by Lee Jackson. I used influences from the Megadeth version, the original, and my own twists to come up with the final composition. This is a new revised version featuring many enhancements, with the main emphasis being on production quality. All tracks, including the backing were played by me. Hope you all like it :)
**NOTE** there are 2 versions of the new HD release available on my site. One with the original "Duke Talk" and sound FX, and one without.
Mp3's and other cool stuff is available on my website at www.vertexguy.com. Check it out!
@Scott3DR "This is the definitive version of the Duke Nukem theme song. Nicely done, Chris.
-- Scott Miller, 3D Realms"
Thanks Scott!! Glad you liked it!
Man!! Awesome!!
I'm still listening to it from your first vid and now this made it into my recommended.
Still love it.
That Jungle Jam though.. ;)
Hello! Can I use this music in my video?
Eat your heart out Dave Mustain!
Where are you ???? Latest video uploaded 10 years back… hope u r not dead
This is the definitive version of the Duke Nukem theme song. Nicely done, Chris.
-- Scott Miller, 3D Realms
Scott, you need to get a Kickstarter to get the money and rescue Duke from the greasy hands of Gearbox's CEO, Randy Pitchford. Dude released a half-baked mess of a game just because he wanted to add features and change engines every time a revolutionary game was released. 5 years later, he released a buggy, watered down, poorly handling, bad sounding "remaster" of Duke3D that somehow runs like crap on Nintendo Switch. The final boss of Ep. 5 is a major letdown as well! This whole situation feels like Gearbox is making Duke kick his own ass, and you, his creator, need to save him, bubblegumless or not.
@@RaginYajun020 lol
OMG hi Scott!
And this is also sadly the last time we ever heard about this guy.
Ouch! What happened to him?
† :(
I really wonder what happened to him. He truly had potential as you can see (and hear) here.
I hope his doing fine and even working on even bigger projects!
Ok so I checked his page and apparently he's doing great! It's just that his focus went more on his job and business rather than this music channel. Ye he's still up to anything videogame related it seems.
"The last time you stopped caring about his life"-There fixed it for you bitch.
The precise moment to strike posterior with my foot and masticate upon rubbery flavored candy has arrived, and I have depleted my supply of rubbery flavored candy.
You sir, just won the internet
outta gam? :v
Samniss Arandeen Then all left is to kick ass.
love this comment my bro
What the fuck ?
13 years later I still love to listen to this piece of badassery… I will never forget and come back from time to time
Unfortunately I don't see anything I can do on my end to fix the audio dropping on the intro hits and again at the same passage later in the song. It's almost like someone intentionally hacked it somehow. It wasn't that way when I first posted it. Anyway, please try to complain to youtube and maybe if enough people complain they will fix it.
vertexguy what happened? Why you make no more awesome videos? 😭
Maybe they cut it for copyright? anyway its a good song bro, fuck youtube
I don't know how old are you now Chris but let me tell you I used to listen this cover a lot when it came out and I was like 14 lol and you inspired me to own a guitar (I bought one that looked exactly like yours) and all the equipment to play rock and I did pretty decent... unfortunately life changes and people as well I dropped the guitar and piano when I started the university and work, I thought I would have time after that but I had to move from my country and I left all of my stuff behind.. my mother told me she would sell my stuff to have some extra money, little did I knew she never did and instead she bought another guitar and amp for me to retake at my return... saddly she is no longer among us and I couldn't return before that, life is a mess and I regret some choices in life, leaving behind music is one of them, but looking this video again after so many years brought me so much memories of a time when I wanted to do music just for fun and let me tell you again I'll look forward to that. Thanks for keeping this video around
сильно!
Damn brother that is a rough read. I hope you're doing better now and can cope with such loss. All the best and rodk on!
HAIL TO THE KING, BABY!
That's a sick garage you got there
This gives me chills, Duke Nukem 3D is a huge part of my gaming history, I still play it quite often even, though on a source port.
Please someone make a fucking Duke Nukem reboot with fast paced gameplay, insanely good level design, awesome weapons, and enemies and no regenerating health just like in the old Duke 3d.
Look up Alien Armageddon. Just recently updated and it's great. Another option is Kickass Duke if you want a new Brutal Doom type experience.
Ion Fury, baby.
I can dream. Someday, maybe I will.
6 People are clearly jealous! Excellent work!
Simple one of the best covers out there so far! 😎👉🏼
My freakin childhood rt here! That castle by the boat is still my base! Haha n64 multilayer dayz
you should have played it on pc way back before n64!
I adore the background decor l. It looks awesome!
Some day I hope we get a re-upload with the notes included. Even with that glitch, it's still a good song.
I still come back and enjoy this about once a year. Excellent work.
Just received the Duke Nukem Evercade console and thought of this excellent video.
IMO this is the best version of Grabbag that has ever existed and after hearing this I could no longer hear any of the other ones without wishing that I was hearing Duke Nukem Jam instead.
Thumbs up for Chris Cline aka VertexGuy I say! Yeeeee!
Wow this turned out great! I've loved the original you did since the moment you posted it, can't believe it took me this long to find out you made a new one!
dis is 1 of my favorite musics atm!
Thumbs up for DUKE as a Mortal Kombat X DLC character!
***** Lol! Characters can't be added through DLCs?That's the biggest bullshit I've ever read in my life! A Predator, Tanja, Jason all dlc characters with different caracteristics abilities. There are other games, examples I could mention but I'm not gonna couse my point is obvious. Besides It would be cool if DuKE kicks all MK characters asses and make fun of them! Cause DUKE owns MK!
***** You CAN add new fighters without just re-skinning things. DLC isn't just a cosmetic thing, but that is a huge part of it.
If it's on the dick then it can't be called DLC. Why? Because you don't download it. You unlock it through some kind of action in the game or by putting in a code from something you had to buy.
DLC is something made after the fact. Shivering Isle from Oblivion is DLC.
The end for Mass Effect was locked on the disk. Thus not DLC.
Now can you give me an example that you would consider as "on-disk DLC"?
Sooo...what about DLC that's made a year or so after the game has been made? Are you saying that has been on the disk the whole time and that it's so well hidden that only the dev team knows how to get to it?
Jeffrey DaBell No no no. That is not at all how it works. Animations and such can be uploaded to the game after creation. How else would modders improve the animations for such games? This brony fuck is ignorant as to how games work.
MISTER NUKEM!!! ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE MYSELF: I'M TORGUE FLEXINGTON, AND I'M HERE TO ASK YOU ONE QUESTION, AND ONE QUESTION ONLY: EXPLOSIONS!?!?!!!??!!!
"Fuck yeah, man." Cue Predator handshake.
I've been listening to this rendition for four years and it still doesn't cease to be impressive. If you looked up Epic in a thesaurus this rendition should be one of the synonyms listed.
IM HERE BECASUE JOHN CENA TALKS WITH PARAMOUNT TO STAR AS DUKE NUKEM AND I WANT THIS TO BE THE SOUNDTRACK!!!!OMAGAAAADD!!!!!
Let's rock. Literally.
This theme contributes to how badass The King is! The Megadeth and Grabbag versions are damn good, and this makes the two way tie for which is best into a three way one. Vertex Guy, Awesome work bro.
one of the best if not the best remakes of grabbed ever. metal 4eva
I think Duke Nukem if he heard this he would be fucking proud hes got a kickass theme song by Chris Kline
This is one of the best versions of the 'Grab bag theme' by Duke Nukem I've heard in a long time
OMG! The best Duke Nukem jam ever made now has a video!!! I used to listen to your MP3 non-stop on my MP3 player for so long a few years back, and it's so going back on my playlist! You're amazing Vertexguy! You're an awesome guitarist!
The video from 2006 was the absolute best thing ever for me, growing up :D I was 16 and tried to play it on guitar as well, never could though xD
shouldn't this awesomeness have WAY more views?!?!
Oh my God ...your skills are absolutely extraordinary !!! You're a truly Guitar Hero man !!!
Best ever cover and cover vid of Dukem! Just... you could have shoved in a few taunts. No taunts, no Duke...!
HAIL TO THE KING BABY!!!
I sure hope you did the compositing in Nuke :D..
Great rendition man, it really kicks ass.
2:01-2:08 my favourite part as always!
@vertexguy Do I detect a soundtrack deal in the near future? Awesome job, man. Keep up the good work. All of your stuff is pure gold.
This I must say is a very good recreation that brings justice to the original "Grabbag" song.
By using a computer fan as a backdrop for his music video was extremely clever.
amazing work for an alone man! you probably did the best "fan made" theme on youtube! and i mean all popular themes,
@clehmanj You're not alone,man! I loved that game too. The new dlc looks killer, by the way. I'm hoping for a sequel!
i gotta say, thanks to chris, a scanner darkly is one of my favorite movies now...but i guess i better stay on task with this video, THAT WAS AMAZING!!!
Made this my ringtone and told all my people to stop texting me. My life is epic from this day forth. Craxy respect Kline and sweet site!
you have the most badass garage i ever saw
Awesome. I've been waiting for an HD update to this song for a long time. The vid was very well done. I'm hyping this to all my friends.
Wow all just great Love the Work you did in your grarge thats just cool and woo you are by far the best duke nukem jammer out ther really good job Love this video!!!
this guy has balls of steel
Please observe, this is the interior of Duke's blimp's engine. As you can see it runs entirely on 6 huge vats of molten badassery and 1 killer song played by one guy who is almost as king as the king himself... almost
I am amazed at how far you've come and what you've learned.
Quite surprising that you managed to do so many things over something that looks like 30 years of learning, work and waiting.
I am guessing their anyway.
Good luck with your dreams and keep up good work.
1 recommendation, Since you want to make games for people to play.
Hopes to much on you or anything but asking your audience what they'd play would help you alot in choosing a game style and type.
Anyway all the best. thx.
Need this in HD. Would happily pay money for it.
Great, but the iconic 6 note intro is a note short and it's hard to ignore.
This officially makes him the most epic guitar player in he world.
never going to stop being a classic
awesome stuff. You should really do a Jungle Jam HD video next!!!! A bazillion thumbs up!
we need more from Chris....5 years is too long
he forgot his password for youtube .
That is a nice Garage you've got yourself there.
Decades in the Nuclear Inspection business....Diggin it Duke!
Damn I read the description, that’s very impressive my friend. Not only that but a course you killed it with the guitar too!
Damn, are you some kind of renaissance man or what? This video is like balls of steel incarnate.
Awesome job! Really there is no better coverof this song on youtube yet. I feel so sorry for you that this hasn´t at least 10,000,000 views.
i agree youtube sucks if you not a fake prank channel people don't want to know.
J o n a t h a n exactly .. or some idiot that destroys iphones with bullshit like molten copper ... molten aluminium... molten lead... like if it maes ay difference if it gets fucked by 800 degree lead or 800 degree copper ... but yeah ... it has a difference... views
it's an eargasm to me , it's like the way i always wanted to hear the "duke nukem theme" since my childhood , really , thank you for this !
keep on rocking vertex guy, keep doing duke proud. DUKE NUKEM FOREVER BABY!
not bad at all for doing this by yourself. awsome job bro. im diggin the HQ version of the song. i really think they should've used this on DNF. it might have sold more copys lol
let's rock. no joke this guy's amazing.
wow man !! ?? I mean you were my inspiration !! When I was a beginner, I 've always watched your videos !! now are you famous ? !! hope so best luck man !!
this is absolutly perfect ;)
AWESOME!!!
I was a long time fan of your work Vertexguy
This is the best rendition of the Duke Nukem theme I EVER HEARD!
Best of luck for future projects and lots of love from your Russian fan.
Completely amazing. If they do another Duke game they should use your version in the game, it's the best version I've heard.
very very nice bro!! your videos get better and better! thanks for spending your time to make this ! :D
This...rocks. Epic playing skills and fantastic virtual set!
Also, you might want to know that AVG AntiVirus is reporting that your website is using an "Exploit Invisible IFrame Injection (type 1707)". It's probably not an actual exploit, but there's probably code in there that makes AVG (and Chrome) think that it is. Might want to check it out.
one of the first songs i ever favourited on youtube, such a sick version love it
You are badass. I love your version of duke nukem's theme song.
If you guys like the one with the sound effects (my favorite part being when he runs his hand up the neck of the guitar, it has the shotgun pump action sound, fitting for the motion his hand makes) he has it on his website along with this version. Both are great.
I love your version of the Duke theme, and the video is awesome.
That Nukem industrial fan is brilliant. The music is really good, but there were a couple of bits I didn't like, where it sounded like something was missing
Very huge upgrade from the other Duke jam you did. GREAT JOB!!!!
OMG i remember when your first video came out!!!!!! so amazing i watched it religiously....please come out with a remake of Contra Jungle Jam
From all the variations of this theme this one is my all time favorite
You have the coolest garage ever :)
Your garage kicks ass. As does the music itself.
Dave Mustaine has been hacking your audio dude! Been listening to your version since you uploaded it, kicks ass!
There's a lot less to hate when there's no vocalist in music.
Megadeths version is actually really liked.
Chris, you have done this song some serious justice! Excellent video quality as well. Keep rockin man!
--Ty Loder (Line6slinger, tl4reel)
Dude! Your garage is awesome....
I've watched the original video so much I missed this!! HAHAHA! Great Job!
This cover has Balls of steel.
This is by far the BEST freaking rendition I have ever heard of The Duke's Theme Song.
I'm totally downloading it! :D
Fantastic! Amazing sound and brilliant camerawork!
I'm guessing either RUclips glitched the audio or there was simply an error made during the production that was missed before it was uploaded, but notes are clearly missing. I downloaded the MP3 of this back when it first came out and the notes aren't missing on the MP3. So the missing notes aren't an artistic change to the song. Overall this is one of the best versions of the Duke Nukem theme to date. It's just too bad we don't have anyone with the balls to make a game worth buying. Duke3D is still the best version ever made and it seems like they've always been trying to recreate the magic of that game, but they always fall short. DNF is an example of what not to do. They made that game so cheesy I forgot I was an action hero saving the world because I was cringing at every corner. I'm just really disappointed that such an awesome game has been dragged through the mud and left for dead.
That is massive man, i'm a very fan of you :)
That was awesome man!!! Keep up the good work!!!
very well played ,you indeed are the duke
Outstanding. You truly are "Rockin"!
OMG Chris, I came back to listen your original version and saw this! Man, oh man! Amazing job :)
Brilliant. You have my support and i hope to see you excel in your career as a musician. Game makers should be flocking to you for music in these remakes of classic games.
forever could have been a good game but no so many awesome things they could have done but no i guess ill just listen to this awsome cover and think of what could have been
Awesome guitar work
Awesome!!! I see you've re-decorated your bedroom or home studio since the other video was made
great to see another video man, keep em coming!
Hell Yeah. Love Duke 3D and your version of this song is fantastic!!!!
awesome playing, awesome skills, and awesome video :D
I can't stop listening to this. This will be a hard cover to top.
