DOOM (PSX) - Main Theme [Cover By DAR] | (20th Anniversary Ver.)

Okay, all rise for the anthem of DOOM! Dat brass though, man. Shoutout and thanks goes out to both Sraigius and Sylvain-Sly Casavant, for suggesting that I do a cover of this theme! So this was pretty fun to put together, especially since I’ve never had a good opportunity to play around with brass (aside from the occasional french horns here and there in other covers). Since I already had the opportunity to rock out to this theme in my Doom 64 cover, I wanted to try and recreate the grand, epic, and orchestral feel of the PSX version. I waited until about 1:50 before I went full into the 20th anniversary version of the song. I really wanted to build up to it, so I decided to start things out close to the original version. I’ve done some small subtle changes here and there, most of which I actually can’t remember as I type this. Something new that I added was the inclusion of some big ’ol orchestral drums. Adds a bit of (literal) dramatic impact! One small change that I can think of is the panning of the guitars. It was quite a lot of work mapping/transcribing all the notes out, as well as the layers upon layers of strings and brass that I had to put down. I basically took all my favorite samples and collections, and mixed them all together. I’m actually pretty happy with how the synth in the beginning turned out too. Originally, I was going to try and get it as close as I could. However, part of the way through, I quite liked what I had put together for the synth. Anyways, I hope you all enjoy my recreation of this awesome theme! ~DAR .OGG DOWNLOAD: %28PSX%29_-_Main_Theme_%5BCover_By_DAR% Originally Composed By Aubrey Hodges ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Make sure to Like, Share, and Subscribe if you enjoyed!
