I absolutely LOVED what you did with the Classical remix and I really wanted to see a Funky remix for this one and I’m glad we got one at the end! What I love most about this song is about how it’s electronic sounds are so reminiscent of the original 90’s DOOM soundtrack. It sounds so old and so new and goes to show how far technology has gone so that we can put entire orchestras into video games when back in the day, we could only have one instrument that played the most simplistic keys imaginable to give that same feeling our orchestras do today. It honestly sounds like Mick Gordon wanted to remind us of the theme and beat that this entire song was built upon, the foundation of this new DOOM and it’s soundtrack. He wanted to remind us the spirit of this old track, and he wanted to keep that spirit while improving the entire body. It’s absolutely genius. I mean, if you turn it into an 8-beat track or something, I bet my life and then some that it sounds like a 90’s DOOM track. Genius!

The slayer is the embodiment of all the righteous rage and fury that the innocent have ever felt at the hands of those that would take advantage of the helpless. He is unending, unyielding, ETERNAL!!! This song is definitely the song that gets played over the megaphone as the helos crest the horizon just before the napalm hits and feel the thumping fear in your chest as the cavalry hits the ground and shreds everything in its path!

There's a lot of dynamism to how they did the "adapt to the level" stuff. Each level has 2-3 different intensities (ambient, light, heavy) and the tracks are dynamically mixed by the game engine to be appropriate to what's happening in the level. An example of a benefit of this: the synth arpeggios were actually previously introduced to the listener before the heavy bit starts playing, so they're also a callback/"return to the familiar" sort of a break too. If I remember correctly, there were also hints of certain note progressions in the ambient, but it's been a while since I've played.

Literally the best reaction/evaluation I've seen of this song. I've learned soo much from this video.

I love your explanations and dissection of these songs, man. Keep great, brother! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

‘Maybe it symbolizes that the DOOMGUY is being haunted by his own internal ghosts, and that’s the source of his unrelenting rage against the demons. Idk I never played DOOM’ This is a surprisingly accurate read. The original plot of the first DOOM is that the demons killed his pet bunny Daisy, and he went totally off the reservation and killed every demon on Mars. In fact, if you scrutinize the cover art for the DOOM games, you can see Daisy hidden in the background. The modern games added more lore, where he was championed as the greatest warrior of a race of alien gods, even though he was human, who gave him his technology (kind of like Samus Aran from Metroid) and unleashed him against the legions, allowing him to direct his rage against all demonkind in their own hellish realms using the strongest weapons in the universe. But really, the underlying driving force for his bloodlust and quest for vengeance is still the same. RIP Daisy 🐰 The more you know 💫

I have NEVER needed a full version of a piece MORE than that funkified mix you put together for the outro. I'm so happy I've discovered this channel, incredible stuff sir.

A very informative reaction, loved it. And dear lord, that section where you showed a "classic" version was incredible, wish there was a longer version of that.

It's been memed to death out there but: this isn't metal, this is the entire periodic table

okay but no one gonna talk about how this man just popped out the heavy metal vocals out of nowhere? Was not expecting that at all!

I was waiting for this!!!! Awesome! You breakdown for this is just godly!

This is the only "Composer reacts" video I've found with some actual substance. Thank you, very cool

Okay, we need a full conversion of this song to the 19th Century Villain style, it was friggin' divine. Can we also get a full conversion of the Cyberpunk version of this song? That slapped so good.

5:17 he literally summed up doom eternal from less than 30 seconds into a track what a guy

Best analyse up-to-date on this song ! I'm impressed

Gotta say I love how you not only talk about what this music does as it is happening (or just happened), but also illustrate it with e.g. orchestral examples! Sure, it's one thing to say how it would sound like played by an orchestra, but to actually make it and show us is dedication and watcher friendly on another level! I'm not usually the type to go on "you've just earned a sub" rants, but this was exceptional! great video, great analysis!! :D

Holy hell the orchestral version gave me GOOSEBUMPS!

I cant remember where did i see it before, but Mick Gordon did a panel interview explaining the music production process he came up with when doing the Doom 2016 soundtrack. I would recommend that interview to have an insight to his design process and how he came up with the aggressive electronic sounds in the music.

damn bro, the music and video production in this vid is insane! keep it up! amazing work

Oh my.. been binge watching reactions to this awesome track and i finally found a reaction that i liked and subbed right away. Good and genuine effort my friend. Go to great heights in life.

Really like that callout to Animals as Leaders, the way the band operates is insane. Matt Garstka being able to finesse and show off his chops is one of the highlights of my listening experience, and hearing Tosin and Javier complement each other and leave space for super intricate playing. Everyone can handle the rhythm, but everyone can also bring out really good sound for the music they play!

@ 6:35 It might be a track for a villain, but it's also hauntingly fcking sad. There is a deep pain there that can never be relieved. No matter what he does. This pain. This deep sadness he has can only be expressed in savage unadulterated rage and violence that is never ending. Unabated. For millennia (eons according the the testaments of DOOM) in Hell itself. And the pain doesn't go away even when he wins.

You went far beyond what I was expecting when I clicked the video, earned an instant sub, congrats for the great content

One thing that you can't really appreciate in this format is the incredible dynamic nature of the music in game. So many criteria such as your health, enemy types, amount of enemies and what you are doing can effect the music. It's extremely fluid and I watched a live stream of Mick and it's insane how much thought he put into how the music transitions in intensity to match the vibe of what's happening on screen.

9:20 His stuff with Killer Instinct Season 1 was the reason why I was so hyped when he was announced to be working on DOOM 2016. My personal favourites were Polemos (Aganos' theme) and Inferno (Cinder's theme)

His TJ Combo piece was a great show of his talent with a more hip hop style as well, always part of the gym playlist

6:05 that is beautiful man, what a great way to explain how awesome Mick Gordon is

Your enthusiasm and obvious knowledge combined with your ability to both show and tell has definitely earned my sub. Nice!

The classical rendition you did sent chills throughout my entire body, holy shit dude. Instant subscribe. I cannot WAIT to see your channel grow!!

You reactions and analysis is the best on KZread, i learned so much from your videos!

The extra work you put in is phenomenal. It is teaching more about music that I love. Thank you.

Where has this channel been all my KZread life? Subbing for sure and going to binge watch these videos man your excellent. Love the energy keep it up.

Fantastic video, I love the way you explain the intricate details of this soundtrack! The last thing that you touched on, how there are "breaks" in the song is great. If you're someone that heard the soundtrack when playing the game itself, its like being a person who has listened to a great band live. The way the song changes as you are fighting is unreal and you feel every emotion you mentioned twice as much. I would highly recommend playing the game, even if its on an easy difficulty just to fully appreciate how incredible it is.
