The Doom Remix Project is the best!
We're spitting fireballs on all the rest!
If you don't believe me, wait and see.
It'll feel like we hit you with a BFG.
WOOO! Go Team!

DARK SIDE OF PHOBOS
Revamped and Under New Management

All the necessary information:

Point of No Return (from this point you cannot drop from the project): January 17th

Final WIPS (I say WIP for a reason) due: Jan 31st

Evaluation period: Feb 1st+ (during this time other mixers will critique the WIPS and give input for improvement on the songs. I don't know how long this period will last. However, this is a vital time for the songs, as it allows for touching up and perfecting the songs. Thus: DO NOT DELETE YOUR SONG FILES, FLP FILES, ETC>I know there are a few people who already have, but if you havent DON"T.
here is a list of potential seeders. if you have bandwidth to give, please sign up. If you have HOSTING, that is even better.


Mythril Nazgul
Geko
Richter (mirror)
KyrenGraves



Global Trance is designing the page, and he needs good high quality front face portraits of the mixers. Anyone also deeply involved in the project without necessarily being a mixer (caleb and gt himself come to mind) will also have a portrait on the site. I will also need a short paragraph of information on yourself and a short paragraph on your mix(es) for my write ups for the site. Please try and get those in asap


Keep on mixing folks. this project is coming along VERY well. Kudos to you all.

Also, again. Think about transitions. If you want to segue into the next song, please contact the mixer of the next track and work something out.

THE OLD SHIT

The songs
Midis available here (http://www.afn.org/~afn04133/doom1.htm)

The Rules
+Remixers must meet the deadlines given to them. If you cannot meet these deadlines, please take your name from the project as soon as possible.
+Multiple entries for a track are allowed. Voting on the tracks will occur AFTER the FINAL deadline for tracks.
+Mixers must check in with their progress at least once a week. Failure to do so, and failure to respond within three days of a PM will result in the mixer being dropped from the project

The Current List of Remixers Involved. If you do not meet a deadline, you will be dropped from the list. I am already questioning some of the names on the list, as to their “existence”ablilty, but I will go with the benefit of the doubt and give them one week. Once a track becomes open, feel free to claim it.

THE NEW DEADLINES
Have a WIP of substantial length by December 10th
SONGS MUST BE COMPLETED BEFORE January 24th*
Tentative date

Also, anyone needing server space is welcome to upload remixes at PaletteSwap (http://www.paletteswap.com). You can also attach your working files (like Fruity Loops or Reason files) there so other folks can help you with them or whatever.

(Outdated) Doom REMIX Website - http://www.peoplesremix.com/doom (contact Caleb if you need webhosting as well)

Apologies for the new thread. I need to be able to control the thread title in order to run the project fully.

This post will be updated with new Information as soon as it becomes available.

Use this thread to check in, discuss the project, post WIPS, comment on WIPS and post final mixes.

If there is any information I have missed, please tell me.

She's got a nice body, but I don't know...

Where's that paper sack?

[The Orichalcon]

Myth, can I get you to take a listen to the Cyberdemon Awaketh Track I have up at Soundclick? Tell me if it's good enough to I know whether or not you'll use it.

If not, I could probably start again.

[Sanguineuniverse]

I have done an orchestral version of the Computer Station song and would like to enter it into the project. You can get it @ www.soundclick.com/deusmachina. That version is @ 128 kbps . You can e-mail me to get the 192 kbps version @ deusmachina@ecstasisband.com.

Thank you for your time and consideration


Deus Machina

[Navi]

TO - Because, at this point in the Project, we aren't concerned with quality control, yet. Quality control will probably begin after the WIP deadline. Therefore. the decision to keep the song in the project is yours alone. If you feel it is good enough, stick with it. If not, create a new one. (PS: I think it sounds decent, but I know it was unfinished.)

Sanguineuniverse - I'll add your name to the list. Is that a final song, or a WIP?

[ihatepasswords]

LOL, now that is a seriously funny picture!!

[-RK-]

I have read. For the record.

EDIT: Like bill, link will always be in sig, so you can check my progress.

[Chris 'Bill' D]

My wip link will be in my sig from now on with the date of update (just in case you want to see)

[Navi]

Still waiting on a load of mixers. I'll start PMing on Friday.

[richter]

Where's the link to the actual project site? Am I blind? Right in front of me someplace?....

Also, anyone needing server space is welcome to upload remixes at PaletteSwap (http://www.paletteswap.com). You can also attach your working files (like Fruity Loops or Reason files) there so other folks can help you with them or whatever.

Oh and BUMP!

My song is finished. DOWNLOAD HEEAH! (http://www.paletteswap.com/beatdrop/Beatdrop%20-%20Doom%20Remix%20Project%20-%20E1M6%20-%20Reprocessed.mp3)

[reelmojo]

Where's the link to the actual project site? Am I blind? Right in front of me someplace?....The project site was originally going to be at http://www.peoplesremix.com/doom and was going to be created by myself and aluminum (mostly aluminum, as I suck at web design). Then the project stagnated and no one ever contacted either of us about anything regarding it what-so-ever...

As it stands, I'll also host any song for the project on my webspace, so if you can't host your mix you have two different places that will gladly host it for you.

[ella guro]

Now that all the judge panel shit has cleared, I should have time to concentrate on actually mixing. So count me in here and hopefully I can actually show some progress this time.

[Nase]

Did klm09 just disappear, by the way?

Well, I had a 'substancial wip' posted a long time ago, but it's not really breathtaking. I'll post a newer version before the wip deadline. If it's not good enough, I'll either start from scratch again, or someone else might take e2m1 if he can do better.

[-RK-]

Yeah, I might have to start from scratch as well. Although that would piss me off immenseley, might have too.

[EvilHorde]

Yo. I´m signing in.

My mix is still @

we don't need a website at this point anyways, so you can just drop it for now.
all we need is this thread, mythril should be updating the first post with all the necessary information and news.

y song is finished. DOWNLOAD HEEAH! (http://www.paletteswap.com/beatdrop/Beatdrop%20-%20Doom%20Remix%20Project%20-%20E1M6%20-%20Reprocessed.mp3)
whoa, crazy. nice work!

cheers.

[Navi]

Ana, update the link in your sig!


Awesome! Got some mad confirmation from: Carbunk1e, beatdrop, Adhesive_Boy, Nasenmann, EvilHorde!

Also, the first song, from Beatdrop (which I will listen to tonight).

Furthermore, I have no idea where klm09 went. Which is why i made a new thread, so I can control the front post.

Updating first post with some more info...

I need confirmation from:

E1M2: Nuclear Plant (Xelebes):
E1M4: Command Control (Mr. Anderson):
E1M8: Phobos Anomaly (Ralphis):
E1M9: Military Base (DamienKrauss)
E2M2: Containment Area (Peeples):
E2M9: Fortress of Mystery (secret level) (En Sabah Nur)
E3M2: Slough of Despair (Larsec)
E3M8: Dis (chester?)
1. The Text Music (episode outro) (suzumebachi)***
2. The End (Episode 3 Outro iirc) (Bart Klepka)

***Suzu may or may not be in. I've talked to him in IRC

[Xelebes]

Hello.

I've been kinda silent over the last few days. Partied last night andnow feeling a bit tired (8 hours of dancing and 6 hours of work coupled with a few hours of other stuff only to get 6 hours of sleep.)

Anywho... I'm gonna take another stab it. I'm thinking I'll need a whole new approach on the song. I might try an off-beat techno piece... see if that will do the trick.

[Navi]

Just a quick bump. Does anyone want to design the website and or have any ideas for it?

[EvilHorde]

EvilHoarde, is that your final track?

Well... If it meets the standards of this project then its ok for me. Too bad there hasn´t been much feedback on the updated version, so I really don´t know what to think about it.

I´m a bit concerned with the overall volume of the song. Is it too silent? Besides that I´m pleased with it and I´m ready to declare it as the final song...
But I´m begging for feedback.

[Xelebes]

I have En Sabah Nur (aka DJ Apocalypse) and Mr. Andersen on my MSN list. I'll be sure to contact them when they get online.

On the matter of the tune I've chosen and been assigned on, I'm finding it more difficult as time goes on the creativity I desire to pursue on the piece is going downhill. This is not good.

I'll keep trying but it is not looking good.

[Larsec]

Still here...

But I´m begging for feedback.

It needs to be jacked up volume wise. Also, it seems sort of like a straightforward cover of the song. I haven't listened to it in depth but I couldn't make out a lot of arrangement.

I think we need to set a volume standard, by which the other songs should all follow, in order to maintain continuity. Also, if you plan on having your song segue into the next song, please plan that out now.

Xel, I'm going to wait on confirmation before I cross em off. Larsec, I'm confirming ya.

[Navi]

gonna bump this with a new WIP I am working on:

:D Sorry, I must have skimmed over that! You wanna get into contact with Caleb and plan something out?

[The Orichalcon]

Why not do a website up in the same format as the duckhunt one. Just rip the OCR format and list all the entries that way.

[analoq]

i still see no purpose for a website at this stage of the game.
we need to concentrate on getting remixes out of people!
but whatever.

cheers.

[Navi]

I was just trying to get a base on all aspects of the project. No real need for a site just yet (but there is hosting for anyone who needs it)

A butterface indeed.

[Navi]

Bump.


This thread can't die, folks. This project has a lot of potential.

[EvilHorde]

WHAM BLAM.
I updated my mix. Pumped up the volume and compressed the heck out of it. The overall sound is really something else now, really gave the song some energy there... AND I took off the boring ambient sounds from the intro, so it starts from silence now...

http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=44682

Well, thats propably it.
Too bad if its too much a cover song rather than a remix.

[Navi]

I love it. Fun stuff. Needs a name!

[EvilHorde]

I love it. Fun stuff. Needs a name!

Thanks! I gotta get back to you on the title cause I´m all out of ideas.

[Bart Klepka]

i'm still in..

[Navi]

List updated.

Don't forget the first deadline, people. And I'm still waiting on some confirmations.

Also, Suzu's track is now open, to anyone who wants to take on a second track (TO, analoq?)

also...

www.mythrilnazgul.com/DoomProject.mp3

I'm thinging of calling it "Ghost in the Lab". It's rough, right now.


Also. I had an idea. It's not a concrete idea but I was just wondering if anyone is planning on putting vocals in their remix? I got this idea last night, where the entire project is dark and moody, and the last song on the track is a sort of mournful closing track with vocals (Female?). Just an idea. I dont know if anyone will actually make a vocal remix.

[EvilHorde]

also...

www.mythrilnazgul.com/DoomProject.mp3

I'm thinging of calling it "Ghost in the Lab". It's rough, right now.


Holy shit! That´s awesome!

[Navi]

Holy shit! That´s awesome!

haha, thanks! However, I think it's a bit crowded so far. I want to style it after the Parade music from Ghost in the Shell: Innocence (for anyone who has seen it) so i might change a lot.

[Xelebes]

Word from En Sabah Nur - he is currently swamped with things right now so he might not be able to get the project done on the deadline.

As for me, I'm still out of ideas. The prodigy sound kind of wilted away in finding a fond spot in me.

[Navi]

I'll take his name off the list. However, for now, yours stays on.

Two songs free for now. Check the front page.

[The Orichalcon]

Put me down for The Text Music (episode outro) and cross me off E2M8

[Larsec]

What happened to my post?
I wrote a post that I would do the text music... but I thought that was the one Bart Klepta was doing since it's called D_Victor End of Episode and that's the one he was asking about back in the old thread...

Now I am really confused...

[Larsec]

I don't know...

[Navi]

Interesting....Hmmm...

I'll talk to TO.

[Larsec]

http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=1170057&highlight=#1170057

...and according to this website (http://www.afn.org/~afn04133/doom1.htm) d_victory is the text music...

[The Orichalcon]

according to that site, suzumebachi had the text music. Bart Klepka had the bunny music (which was the end of episode 3)

[Navi]

Well, I talked(ish) with Larsec in the IRC room and hopefully things are back, settled down.

[nousentre]

Put me down for e2m9 (fortress of mystery)

[Navi]

Aight. I toldja the deal. Good luck


WIP deadlines, everyone!!!

[Larsec]

according to that site, suzumebachi had the text music. Bart Klepka had the bunny music (which was the end of episode 3)
If I press the Text Music on that site it plays a midi that is the same as the d_victory midi from the zip file... Which probably means Suzu and Bart were working on remixes of the same midi...

[The Orichalcon]

yes, but the episode 3 outro music is the music from the bunny scene. That's what Bart should have been working on.

Anyway when it comes down to it, if there's more than one mix of the one theme, we'll vote on the best.

[EvilHorde]

Yeay. It seems like this project is not dead after all... We got action. Yee-haw.

[JFM]

I wish you Doom remixers all the best!

[The Orichalcon]

http://img54.exs.cx/img54/3982/drpcaco.png

[-RK-]

I'm gonna try and work on my song some more when I get home tommorrow. I'll also put up my song and .flp at PalletSwap, so yeah. I guess I'm just checking in.

Good Luck to all those involved.

[Mr.Andersen]

I see mine is one of the ones in question...I'm not to sure why this site doesn't send me automatic e-mails when responses are posted to topics I'm suscribed to but anyways.

Here's a link to an older version of my track... http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=44679&highlight=

I will post the new version soon enough and then ask for others input on whether or not to pursue the song farther.

[Navi]

K. Updated the listing. Only waiting on DamienKrauss, Ralphis and Chester. If they don't show before the end of the weekend, I will drop them. I know Krispy is interested in doing a track, and I know others are as well....

[Navi]

Also, mixers. Realise that as long as you are on the list, I expect you to complete a WIP/song for this project. If you know now that you wont be able to meet the deadlines, please let me know so I can pass the song on to someone else. Thanks.

[Xelebes]

I want a different song. I'm hating e1m2. Can I swap with someone?

[Navi]

I want a different song. I'm hating e1m2. Can I swap with someone?

There's a couple of free songs. Plus, contact the mixers if you want to make a trade.

[Xerol Oplan]

...I'm not to sure why this site doesn't send me automatic e-mails when responses are posted to topics I'm suscribed to but anyways.

E-mail reply notification hasn't worked since the mid 70's, I believe.

[The Orichalcon]

I want a different song. I'm hating e1m2. Can I swap with someone?

hrmb, I wish you'd said this before I'd picked up the text music. The Imp Song is my favourite song from doom 1. I don't think I could do it justice. From what I've heard, Xel, your mix of it was sounding good.

[Xelebes]

e2m8 sounds a bit more workable.... I'll see if I can get any further. I'll confirm later if I get anywhere it.

[Larsec]

I'll be interested in the text music until project's end... Infact, I am already working on it because I felt I had to, whether for the project or not... So if it could be worked around E3M2 could be yours, if you so desire and we all reach agreement... If not, I'll just continue working on Slough of Despair...

[Navi]

Cool.

Guys, :) I should start seeing some new WIPS in dis thread soon. As a sign of my respect:

http://www.vgmix.com/song_view.php?song_id=2753

Tell me what you think, so far. Be honest.

[The Joker]

I'd like to try E2M8: Tower of Babel if it's still open. So let me know. Yeah.

Later lates,
Joker

[Xelebes]

I'd like to try E2M8: Tower of Babel if it's still open. So let me know. Yeah.

Later lates,
Joker

I think I called it and as of right now, I think I am making progress here - moreso than e1m2.

You can e1m2 if you so desire though. It is open.

[Navi]

Anyone got anything to share, so far?

[-RK-]

I'll get something up within the next few days. Things have been really hectic lately, but I already have a pretty complete WIP done, so I'm caught up, just need to get it online.

[The Joker]

Cool, I'll try the Nuclear (pronounced Nu'k-lur by insane people) Plant then. I started work on Tower Of Babel, I'll probably release it outside of the project. Anyway, I'll let you know when I got a WIP uploaded.

Later lates,
Joker

Edit: I got a demo for E1M2. It's at my Soundclick page (http://www.soundclick.com/bands/4/dajokermusic.htm). The first song on there. Called "Self Destruction", which is probably a working title.

[CIaude]

Bump

Nice work guys, keep it up.

is the new track listing. I dropped peeples, ralphis, damien krauss and chester. They can come back and reclaim the tracks, but i havent heard anything from them, so....those tracks are fair game.

[Xaleph]

Computer Station WIP (http://www.animeremix.org/Carbunk1e/jdbc_request.mp3)

[The Orichalcon]

I'd better claim E1M9 now as well. Not sure if I'll have anything for certain, just setting it aside so people know I'm working on something.

[Anduril]

Cool.

Guys, :) I should start seeing some new WIPS in dis thread soon. As a sign of my respect:

http://www.vgmix.com/song_view.php?song_id=2753

Tell me what you think, so far. Be honest.

Wow Mythril, I love this so far. Sounds more like Ghost in the Shell or some other anime then Doom, but its cool noetheless. The little vocal bits seemed a bit wierd at first, but they worked better than I initialy thought they would. Ending seems somewhat abrupt though.

[Xaleph]

I'd like to claim e1m8.

Hoping 8bit and I can pull something off.

-djc

[Navi]

Put down TO and Carbie for the respective songs. Also, i added Larsec as another remixer of the Text theme, as he has a WIP that he just showed me, and he's gonna get ahold of a female vocalist, apparently (the same one who sings for Mahoney of c64 mixing fame) to record vocals for it.

Anduril, thats exactly what I was going for, as you can tell by the title. It's not over. I just havent finished it.

[Nase]

ArseAssassin had a really nice remix of containment area. Somehow klm09 just crossed him out of the list as Peeples appeared. It's absolutely worthy to be onboard, just ask him, Myth.


Man, right now I honestly don't know why I picked that track. I can't hear those 007ish chords anymore. For the record, I uploaded my WIP at soundclick:

http://www.soundclick.com/bands/4/skoshumusic.htm

Don't find it that great. I'm a little busy these days, so I don't know if I'll be able to start something new or develop this one nicely. Maybe it would be better to put a 'free' behind e2m1.

[Navi]

If someone will get into contact with the ArseAssassin?

I'll put him down fo shu fo shu.

[Xelebes]

Just remember I dropped e1m2 and decided to pick up Babel.

[The Joker]

Just remember I dropped e1m2 and decided to pick up Babel.

And that I signed up & am now doing E1M2. WIP link in my above post.

Later lates,
Joker

[Navi]

Updated list on the front page. I put a ? by ArseAssassin, but if he wants back in for sure, I will take it off.


Only one track still open.

[Larsec]

Also, i added Larsec as another remixer of the Text theme

I don't know if there is any size or length limits to this project but in principal you could have 4 text music remixes since there are 4 episodes and the theme playes at the end of each one (Right? Can't remember for sure). So, given that they varied enough from eachother, wouldn't it be possible to include both TO's and my own (and Bart Klepta's if that is indeed the song he is working on)?
My own has kind of an "The End" feel to it, so that could work as the last one...

If this is actually going to be a soundtrack or music WAD, then there is only room for one text music theme, since there's only one space. unless someone knows how to reprogram it.

[Navi]

Whats all this about soundtrack or music WAD? I was under the impression that this was just a Remixing project.

[The Orichalcon]

I'm planning on compiling a music WAD for it, even if it's only for myself, and only one remix for each song will fit.

[Navi]

I came up with this idea.


TO, your songs are usually dark moody...err, I hate to make an error in genre judgement here but...ambientish sounding electronica pieces, right? Why don't you create something like that and then it will FADE into Larsec's section. We can either have it as two remixes, or one long track (I don't think one seven minute track will harm anyone). What say you both to that?

[Larsec]

What say you both to that?

At this point in time, I don't like that idea, but that might change when I hear what TO is doing. I still think the idea i proposed is better but it's your call, MN, and if there will only be room for one mix in the end I'll pull mine out, since I wasn't supposed to be working on it in the first place :)

My TV productions class is doing a commercial assignment. My group has decided to do an action figure commercial, because you know... anything that can bust through a wall of cups must be cool. Anyway, we need music, and all the nonliscenced music is pure shit. I was wondering if you guys would give permission to use one of your songs in the commercial.

Pick one, then PM the author.

Updated the mix...

[Navi]

What say you both to that?

At this point in time, I don't like that idea, but that might change when I hear what TO is doing. I still think the idea i proposed is better but it's your call, MN, and if there will only be room for one mix in the end I'll pull mine out, since I wasn't supposed to be working on it in the first place :)


If that doesnt work, I have no qualms about putting both mixes on the actual project. TO can choose to remove one for the WAD, but in terms of the actual project, I see no reason not to have both tracks on IF IT BECOMES NECESSARY.

[The Orichalcon]

I'm working on this E1M9, at this rate I doubt I'll have anything for the text music to argue over, so at this point in time, I'd say that E1M9 will take my full attention.

[The Orichalcon]

Here's my WIP.

TO - Doom - Secrets and Lies E1M9 (DRP) (http://eof.servehttp.com/orichalcon/TO_-_Doom_-_Secrets_and_Lies_E1M9_DRP.mp3)

The host may be slow, if that's the case, let me know and I'll find somewhere else to upload it.

[CIaude]

I'm not hearing any music. I wanna rock mother fucker.

[Navi]

hmmm. :?

Anyways, Larsec PMd me in IRC with some good news. I hope he doesn't mind if I share it.

[02:58] <Larsec> Talked to Mahoney. He said at least 2 of the girls would much likely be very interested in joining in on this project... I am off to the library where I can sit in peace and write some lyrics and hopefully manage to get the music into BETA today...

Awesome.

I would like it if I could get a status check in from people. Leave me a message on AIM, IRC or PM me.

[ArseAssassin]

I'm back, Mythril. :wink:

Exactly why do you need my mix now? I kinda figured that Peeples was doing E2M2, since everyone's worshipping the guy and such.

Well anyway, I really can't post right now, since I can't acces the Intarweb from home. That means I can't upload any WIPs, but I'll try to check back here as often as possible.

[Navi]

I am in control of this project now, bitch, and I demand that you get back on it. Your opinion doesn't matter.



:wink:

[The Orichalcon]

Better do what he says. He has powers of the dead. 8O

Necrology.

[Anduril]

You would be wise to head those words, for he is the Nazgul, neither living nor dead. At all time he feels the presence of your remix; drawn to its power. He will never stop hunting you.

[The Orichalcon]

He will never stop hunting you.

Until he gets stabbed in the face by a woman who can't cook.

[Navi]

STOP MAKING FUN OF THE NAZGUL! NO ONE POKES FUN AT THE NAZGUL.

[ArseAssassin]

STOP MAKING FUN OF THE NAZGUL! NO ONE POKES FUN AT THE NAZGUL.HA HA! YOU'RE A RINGWRAITH!

Oh yeah, I fixed the Intarweb. My life now officially has a meaning.

[Larsec]

Larsec PMd me in IRC with some good news. I hope he doesn't mind if I share it.

Not at all...

I need to work out some variation on the drums but other than that the track is ready for BETA (minus the vocals that is). I wrote the lyrics which are singable and somewhat coherent and I expect to move on with the vocals early next week (when Mahoney will be availible once again)...

I will be PMing you shortly, Mythril Nazgul...

[Chris 'Bill' D]

Due to yet another HD problem, my mix has to be start over (forgot to backup the .flp...:( ). I should still be able to meet the deadline though.

[Navi]

while the deadline hasnt passed yet, here is a list of people with WIPs shown to me thus far. It will be updated as the time passes. SIGNIFICANT SIZED WIPS MUST BE IN BY DECEMBER 10th.

Sorry if i don't have you down. I'm in the middle of a thanksgiving thingie, and i dont have time to run through the thread. Just leave a post with a link to the wip if i missed ya and i will correct it.

E1M1: The Hangar (EvilHorde): YES
E1M2: Nuclear Plant (Joker): YES
E1M3: Toxin Refinery (LordMaestro):
E1M4: Command Control (Mr. Anderson):
E1M5: Phobos Lab (Richter)
E1M6: Central Processing (Beatdrop): YES

1. The Text Music (episode outro) Larsec - YES
2. The End (Episode 3 Outro iirc) (Bart Klepka)

[Larsec]

OK, since I have gotten as far as I have with the Text Music I figured I would pay a little more attention to Slough of Despair. I had a new idea for it..

The original WIP I presented in the other thread (http://larsec.net/Files/Music/Larsec%20-%20Doom%20-%20Slough%20of%20Despair%20(E3M2)%20-%20(WIP-ALPHA01).mp3)

and

The new idea (http://larsec.net/Files/Music/Larsec%20-%20Doom%20-%20Slough%20of%20Despair%20(E3M2)%20-%20(WIP-ALPHA02).mp3)

Please don't mind the technical glitches and I have no idea what the mixing sounds like since I am on poor speakers and headphones at the moment... I will continue to work on this today... I think...

[Navi]

As of right now, I think i've mailed this notification to everyone, but if I missed you, I'll go back and double check.

The Doom Remix project is finally moving to Site Projects! I talked to Protricity and he deemed it far along enough, and solid enough (Yes!) to be moved to SP. If you don't see it in GD anymore, be sure to check Site Projects.

On a personal note, I'm glad this project is back on its feet and I hope I'm doing the best I can to run it. If there is anything you have a real problem with, contact me and let me know. Also, I can't hold this project up on my own. Everyone involved is doing a great job of getting WIPs into the thread and confirming themselves, saving me some trouble.

If you need WIP assistance, there are many people you can look to. I won't name names, because that would be rude, but OCR is filled with people willing to give you tips on mixing, arranging, mastering, etc.

Remember! The first deadline approaches fast! I want a significant WIP (work in progress) by that deadline. What is significant, you may ask? Significant, to me, would be more than two minutes worth of the track, reasonably complete. Remember, you have time until the final deadline. If you finish your songs early, clean them up, polish them, make them shine.

This isn't a half assed fad project; if it was, there would be no point in me keeping this thing alive. I would have let it die with klm's incarnation of the thread. This project has loads of potential and I know it will sound good in the end. Here is the projected timetable I have set up:


December 10th - 1st WIP Deadline

In between this - (Get started on website, tentative title of project, etc)

January 24th - FINAL SONG DEADLINE

January 24th-February 4th:

Vote on vote needing songs
Decide on the track list
Finalize the Web site
Finalize the cover art
mixers opinions on the other songs on the project

The website is going to require: graphics (I might be able to do those), Mixer Bios, Web space, etc. The album title? Who knows, now. Album cover? We can worry about these when the time comes, but I would like them to be in the back of everyones minds.

[Smoke]

Thread has been moved.

[Morbidi]

Can anyone here submit to this?
'Cause I love the Doom musics, so I could do a remix for it (have composed some own metal-versions already).
Reply here or PM me the answer plz.
Is there also some kind of specific genre here, or just different genres..?

Thx for advance.

[The Joker]

Woohoo! Site friggin Projects son. Anyway, I got an Idea for a name (I know it's still early, but hell, why not). The name is... Chaos Revolution, or maybe Project Gehenna: Fear Chronicle.

T is for tiger,
Joker

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

"sretoohs fo gnik si mood" That should be the name. ROCK!

[ArseAssassin]

Okay, this just sucks.

As some of you may already know, I had an almost finished WIP and I even uploaded it on my server a few months back. Since no one showed any interest, I eventually deleted it, having it on my computer and all. As a matter of fact, I tried to re-upload it to Mikseri a few days ago, but I had some trouble with mp3 conversion, so I decided to try to fix the problem later.

Now, the problem with this is that somehow my dad managed to format the C-drive while trying to install Linux or whatever. That means that approximately two years worth of my work is gone and I'm left with nothing but few random mp3-files that I have uploaded to Mikseri. There was a shitload of WIPs that I was planning to release and, of course, my almost finished E2M2 remix. I don't even have a fucking mp3.

Right now I'm trying to get Windows working along with FLStudio. My regkey is propably also gone and my password for FL members area. Even if I manage to get them working, all my VST's, soundfonts and samples are gone.

This doesn't mean that I'm off the project though, I'm trying to restart working on E2M2 ASAP and I'll try to at least get a rough sketch done by deadline. But yeah, I'm pissed off right now.

[The Orichalcon]

Always take the truckdrivers code, Arse. Backing up is an essential part of the work.

I've lost my share of files before. While I was working on the Total War Soundtrack, my harddrive crashed and I lost every single file, including some finished. Luckily that just made me start over with experience so it turned out better.

Now I back most of my essentials up. Since I know that losing everything isn't the end of the world, but it can sure put you back and make you feel like crap. :)

Dear god, that sucks....

If you can give me something small by the deadline, it should be fine, AA. I understand the predicament.

[Navi]

Updated the mixer listing. I expect everyone on the list to be able to deliver the goods, myself included.

[The Orichalcon]

Myth, can you change the title around to say 10th Dec 2004 rather than it's current format? It keeps confusing me since I naturally have the day followed by the month.

[Navi]

damn unamericans

[Navi]

Just a quick update. There is now a new song free for anyone interested, PLUS DEADLINE DRAWS NEAR. Please keep this in mind and PM me, AIM me or hit me up on IRC.

[Larsec]

I would actually love to do E2M1 - Deimos Anomaly but I already have 2 songs and I am not sure I can make the Dec 10th deadline with a substantial WIP...

[Navi]

As of right now, I have other two people who want to do that song, so I'm going to put up one name and, like i said for the other songs, any one who wants to try their hand at it can.

[The Orichalcon]

ACDC did a good version of E2M1...

8) Big Guns

[Navi]

Hell, someone PM ACDC. We can ask if they want in on the project. ;).


Also, I'm going to start a poll for the title of the project, so post what you feel would be a good title, and we will vote on it later.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Sretoohs'Fo'Gnik'

That should be the name for sure. SFG.

Backwards for King of Shooters.

That would be original and awesome.

[The Joker]

Okay, forget the other 2 names I posted... or not either way. I think Dimensional Rift, Or Solitary Confinement would be cool.

I need TP for my bunghole,
Joker

[Navi]

Heh, keep the names coming.

Also, not now, but sometime after the deadline has passed and everyone has shown me their WIPS, i would like all the mixers involved to write a short, three to five sentence bio of themselves for the website.

[-RK-]

Sent ya a PM Myth with my current sucky WIP. I guess it qualify's, but I'll post revisions here, if that's ok. Dont need advice, but just wanna keep people updated on where I am.

Is that cool?

[The Orichalcon]

Knee-Deep in the Music.

[Navi]

just a test. opinions?

http://img39.exs.cx/img39/4428/o8ytest.jpg

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Take off the OCR logo (no offense) and maybe add our names on the side of the hand

[-RK-]

YES!!! OMG, it is badass! I like the logo personally. Names would be cool, but if they take too much attention, just say eff it.

[Navi]

no names on the cover. plus this is just one idea


IF YOU ARE OR KNOW SOMEONE WHO MIGHT BE WILLING TO DO ARTWORK FOR THE PROJECT, THEN FEEL FREE TO ASK THEM.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

I AM A SERIOUS GRAPHICS ARTIST DUDE. My sig is a small sample of something I made. Dude, I'll work on something.

[Navi]

I have talked with Global Trance, who makes professional sites, and he has agreed to do the site/cover for the project. Many thanks to him! Also, hopefully he will have a better DRP sig that everyone can wear in their sigs to publicise the project. cool.

[The Orichalcon]

you need to hide demons and all sorts of things in the folds of the hand if you're going to do that. Make it clever.

here son! (http://vgmix.com/song_view.php?song_id=2874).

Well, there it is, with a name & everything.

[Navi]

I would just like to note that after the Final Deadline, there will be a short period (maybe a couple of days?) which will be a critiquing period. Mixers can offer critique and tips for other mixes and hopefully help make all the songs on this project sound better. So keep in mind, you may have to change your song after the final deadline, so don't go deleting files or anything. :wink:

Joker: Nice name. :P I'll listen later.

Rip and Tear

Now I'm Radioactive

[The Orichalcon]

Big-Mouthed Floating Thingies
Packin' 80 Pounds Of Heavenly Joy.
(Packin' 80 Pounds Of Heavenly Music?
Packin' 21 Track Of Heavenly Joy?)

This comic remains great. :)

[Navi]

e3m8 is free again. any takers?

[reelmojo]

e3m8 is free again. any takers?I'm extremely tempted...

I'll work on something and see if I can come up with something good but this does not mean I've called the track. If you want to take this track by all means do so.

EDIT: Started preliminary work on the song. So far I'm thinking two part acoustic guitar, I don't know about percussion yet because I suck at programming drums. If I get farther along and I decide it needs drums I'll probably just collab with someone to make sure they'll sound good. :wink: Even though this is "Dis" it's going to have the feel of the slower songs from the Doom OST.

[ArseAssassin]

I was just browsing through my files on my older hard drive and I accidentally came across of my good ol' E2M2 mix I made for this project. I'm somewhat amazed by the fact that it actually was the latest version, since I can't recall why it was on the older hard drive in first place.

This is good, 'cause I haven't even been able to get Windows running, much less started another WIP. I'll post it as soon as I get home.

[Navi]

I'm glad, AA!

Aight, fellers. Deadline for WIPS is tomorrow.

[ArseAssassin]

Done. (http://personal.inet.fi/urheilu/fsf/E2M2.mp3)

[The Orichalcon]

My host is down so I can't upload the latest version.

Do we have a community host for this? Or do we have to find our own?

[EvilHorde]

Arse, matey, you got some good stuff there. I reeeally like the spooky atmospheric whistlesounds. The constantly filtered tricky dnb beats don´t do the trick for me, but thats just because its not my thing. BUT they go well with the track so they also have my blessing.. YEAY. The tracks keeps on rolling quite nicely. NICE. Veeeery nice...

And what comes to my contribution to the project; I´ve thought up some title suggestions.

Aircraft shred (As in aircraft SHED=hangar, and SHRED=playing guitar fiercely. And yes, I know its far fetched...)

AND the other which I´m not so fond of (although I´m not a HUGE fan of the 1st one either) but it just crossed my mind accidentally :

Runway to hell

(Oh god it´s even cheesier when I see it written! Agghh...:D)

So, anyway, tell me what you think..

[Morbidi]

Why don't ya name it Perkele? :D
No, seriously, I like the last one. It's hell-y enough, fits with your remix.

And, maybe a little off-topic, but did you play the quick soloes in the real tempo, or did you record it first slowly, then raise the tempo? 'Cause I've ever couldn't play it that fast. ALMOST that fast, but not yet...

Something with perkele would be nice, I agree. Like Perkele´s Hangar... Well... hmm...

Anyway, I played the fast parts with half the tempo, and they were still kinda difficult to play on time. If you slow it down you hear that there are real melodies in those quick parts, not just basic SUPERFAST heavy guitar soloing.

I mean, I´m good but not that good! (Just kidding, I suck with the guitar)

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Can I have two extended days please? I wont be ble to get you the song yet.

[Navi]

Sure. Most people have shown me their WIPs anyways.


ALSO, IF YOU PLAN ON HAVING YOUR SONG SEGUE INTO THE NEXT SONG, NOW WOULD BE A GOOD TIME TO START PLANNING THAT.

[Navi]

My host is down so I can't upload the latest version.

[analoq]

i started over on my mix this week, so i'm not quite ready with a wip yet.
i'm going for a more NIN sound, with lyrics hopefully.
this is my first ReMix done in Tracktion, so i'm still learning how to use it.
but, i plan to share the source files once it's all done.

cheers.

finally.

[ella guro]

Really rough/stupid wip:

http://adhesiveboy.no-ip.com/AB-doomwip.mp3

You won't hear much to do with the original yet (except just being dirgey minor key crap) and there's a lot to be added, but this is a basic idea of the intro where...i don't exactly know where to go with.

[The Orichalcon]

I've had a go at another piece on the list. The Bunny music (Episode 3 Outro):

TO - ElectroCute Bunny DRP (http://www.doulifee.com/prc/DRP_TO_-_ElectroCute_Bunny.mp3)

[nousentre]

ok,
first off i know i'm late. the drum sequencer program that i use has been acting up all night so i'm afraid the old drum track will have to do for now untill i can reinstall my program.

i know it's far from perfect but here goes . . .

Damn I like this!

[Navi]

Analoq: cool. look forward to hearing it soon.

bill: the second half sounds kind of messy, but i like what you are going for so far. If you need any samples, contact me on AIM.

ab: your link isn't working for me. I'll hit you up on AIM or something, and you can send it my way.

TO: Sounds great so far.

Nousentre: It's coming along well. If you want to, you can get into contact with someone on this forum who is a drummer, or can sequence some nice drums for ya? Keep working on it.

As for myself, after my finals this week, i'm going to head back to work on my WIP and hopefully make it sound a lot better.

One thing I have noticed is the abundance of Guitarists on this project. Thus, if anyone needs guitar on their mix, i can only assume that another would be willing? ;)

Also, remember to take the transitions into consideration. At least a couple of tracks should flow into each other.

[The Orichalcon]

Is the list order the order they should transition?

If so, then this bunny piece will have to transition into Larsec's Victory piece. That should be fun.

[Navi]

Hit him up on PM or IRC and talk to him about it. I know his mix starts off with some piano, so maybe you could work that into the end of yours?

[ella guro]

Ok, the link should work fine now. Forgot to disable 'hibernate' mode on the computer, so it was disconnecting from the server every time I went inactive.

[Navi]

Interesting intro. :D

It cuts off right as it starts to get interesting. :(. Looking forward to hearing the rest.

[Global-Trance]

Guys, Mythril Nazgul has asked me to make the site to house these remixes you guys have been working on. I was wondering if I could get some good photos of you guys. I'm not sure what Mythril had in mind... so feel free to spit out ideas.

[Navi]

Well, here's what I had in mind for the site. The artists page would have a "wall" of eyes (being the mixers eyes) and you would click on the eyes to open up a small window with a portrait and a small paragraph of information on you. What say you, mixers?


edit: to clarify, a full front face portrait would work best. Preferable something semi professional. ;)

for example:
BEATDROP:
http://www.paletteswap.com/beatdrop/dain-bandwagon.jpg
would work (sans finger)

Most people have digital cameras or know someone who does. Please try and get a picture to me or G-T sometime soon. Also, i need each of you to write out a mini bio of yourself, and a short write up on your song (which i will use in my write up). Post it here, if necessary.

[Global-Trance]

Make it as high quality/high res as possible. Thanks in advance guys.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Hey MN, I was going to dropout, but I have decided to stay. A good portion of the remix got messed up somehow, but I have decided to rework the entire song. So I'm still in, don't take my name off just yet please. And I'll have that picture soon, does it have to be a certain size?


Dude, TO, you ripped this song up dude 8)
WOW.

[Navi]

Aight, man. Keep working at it then. As for the pic, like GT says, as high res as possible. It can be fixed by GT later, so don't worry about it being too big.

[Navi]

K, just to give this monkey an update, I talked to djpretzel a few minutes ago about linking to "doomproject.ocremix.org" where "doom project" would be the title of the project. Because of this, and the fact that GT is working on the site as we speak, i think it's necessary for us to come up with a name for the project in the "soon" future.

TO - ElectroCute Bunny (http://www.doulifee.com/prc/DRP_TO_-_ElectroCute_Bunny.mp3)

I've updated this. I'm happy with where it's heading. The discrepancies are intentional too, it's not your speakers. :)

Also Mythril, Since this is the last track of the lot, do you want it to finish a certain way? The way I currently have it, it fades in and out with a synth line, which is the easiest way to transitition a piece. I'll get in touch with Larsec and find out how he's ending his piece, we'll work something.

I was thinking, are we going to have a bonus track at the end of the lot?

[The Joker]

Do we really need "actual" pictures of ourselves? I could try to get one, but if I can't can I just, say... put up like a picture of something else. Maybe like my little logo avatar or some crap? Oh & some advice &/or constructive criticism on my mix would be appreciated. http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=48646

[Geko]

If you guys need a seeder for bit torrent distribution, I'll be more than happy to sacrifice my bandwidth for the cause.

Edit: For titles, me and my friend (long time doom fans) came up with some possible titles:

Thy Ears Consumed
Ear Deep in the Dead
Icon of Song

[Navi]

cool title choices. Added to the list. plus, bandwith is always nice. I'll inform you when it becomes needed.

[Navi]

btw, TO. loving that bunny theme. Btw, you working on both mixes or just the bunny theme now?

ps: you said earlier that yours would segue into larsecs. is that the case or is it the other way around? I think, maybe, because of the nature of larsec's, it might have to be Yours -> Larsec



edit: FRONT PAGE UPDATE.

[The Orichalcon]

that's a good idea, Myth. Might do it that way, since my synths can transform into Larsecs piece easily.

I'm still working on both, the bunny theme and E1M9.

[Navi]

ok,
first off i know i'm late. the drum sequencer program that i use has been acting up all night so i'm afraid the old drum track will have to do for now untill i can reinstall my program.

i know it's far from perfect but here goes . . .

http://home.earthlink.net/~nousentre2/e2m9%20(tower%20of%20the%20cannibals%20OR%20myster y%20meat).mp3

Nousentre, I know someone that can sequence some awesome drum tracks. How does this sound: you record your bass and guitar tracks then I get him to lay down a drum track? However, knowing him, he might go ahead and add his own touch to the song, which wouldn't be a bad thing. How does this interest you?

[Navi]

that's a good idea, Myth. Might do it that way, since my synths can transform into Larsecs piece easily.

I'm still working on both, the bunny theme and E1M9.

TO, this girl you told me about...how would she feel about being in a photo for this project? Secondly, do you have any areas near you that look like the landscape of mars? I know Australia might have some, but are they close to you?

[The Orichalcon]

hmm. I'd have to take a look around. I live in south-west australia which is the arid part, but I'm in the middle of a city.

It depends on whether you'd want a landscape or just a small area. the landscape would be hard since it usually has a few shrubs in it. But a small area would be a piece of cake.

I'll ask the girl when she next comes online, I haven't seen her in a little while.

Edit: The closest arid area is Sturt, and that's a good 800km drive, so no I won't be able to go there.

[Navi]

aight, just a thought. Thanks anyways.

[The Orichalcon]

I've fired off an email to this girl, I'll let you know when she replies.

[Navi]

http://img123.exs.cx/img123/2/idea3bi.gif

this is what i was thinking for the back of the "cover".

A figure standing with her back to the camera and her hands wrapped around her body, perhaps with blood dripping from the palm. In the background, a martian landscape with the moons in the sky, tinted red. I'll see what can be done about the bg....The track listing would be at the bottom left, where the lines are. She would have, maybe, an evil smile on her face?

[The Orichalcon]

haha, nice pic, myth. :)

It's a good idea, but it'd be difficult to do.

I'm more for the character in isolation of a black background. Sort of like a gollum stance, hunched down, protruding out of the darkness with a demonic look.

of course, we could all dress up in imp costumes and growl at the camera. :D That'd be a great cover actually.

[EvilHorde]

Hey mythril.. I was thinking the website would be a bit cooler.. I mean, thats very ugly. And not very colorful.. :D

Okay okay.. very funny...
Anyway, what info should there be on the small paragraph? Could you provide us a form of some kind or do we just tell something about us freely? I think it would maybe make it easier to read if it had a structure... like
Name:
Occupation:
Rock the house y´all:
etc etc..

BUT thats just me.

[Morbidi]

Hmmm... If there's no any way to get a pic of that "martian" environment, I suppose it can be done virtually. I can do CG, in fact I think I'm pretty good as a self-learner. If there's no other way to get that scenery, I think I can do it, but then again, I'm not sure if I'm free, lots of work...
But, Myth, tell me your opinions.

[Navi]

First of all, EvilHorde, Bllllaaaagh ;P

Now, Example of a biography paragraph? Errr...Just a little bit about yourself, ie:

Remixer VanderGoot is the alias of Martin Von Hibleheim. He has been remixing for 10 years...blahblah...a guitar player...blah blah...etx. A structure would work fine, but i guess you could say this is similar to the mixer bios on OCr. nothing big. Just a small bio.

as for the song, a small description of the song. This will help me when I write a write up of the song for the site.

Hartza, we'll see. This is still just an idea.

TO: that idea could work quite well. We'll have to see.

[The Orichalcon]

If there's no other way to get that scenery..

uh, There are rovers traipsing around Mars now, taking pictures daily. We can use those and just digitally enhance them.

Of course, if it comes down to it, use Doom 3 graphics.

[Global-Trance]

http://www.uweb.ucsb.edu/~wuwu/doom.jpg

I showed this to Mythril a long time ago. I had done this real quick in Photoshop. Looks just like the Doom 3 title screen without the '3' ^_^

[Navi]

And that is why Global Trance is the man.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Hey MN, please get on Aim.

[The Orichalcon]

You know what, the simplicity of that is so perfect it really outdoes anything else.

[KSoze]

Let me just say I am a HUGE fan of the Doom series and i stumbled across this page yesterday I think. I then proceded to download every WIP along with every finished song. What your guys are doing is f***ing awsome. Great work thus far. So yeah. Way cool. A great tribute to a great game. At least in my eyes. My favorite song is E1M8 so whoever is mixing that: good luck. I am pretty easy to please though. Anyway thanks. For doing what you do. Later.

[Navi]

thanks mucho. keep tabs on the project as it continues, eh?

[EvilHorde]

THAT is a great picture... BEAUTIFUL.

[Navi]

Hey guys, I was thinking, maybe we could open up the project with a short garbled radio transmission that ends in screaming or something like that. With a lot of static and distorted voices. Then it would cut off abruptly and in comes EvilHorde's track. What do you think?

[The Orichalcon]

an intro? Sounds fine to me. You can get some good screams from Doom 3. Argonaut sent me the Doom 3: Hell on Earth intro music (WIP) and I have to say that putting in all those radio messages and screams and demon sounds was awesome.

[Navi]

Well, as opposed to sampling D3, I was thinking maybe one or two of the project members could record it. ;)

[EvilHorde]

Hey guys, I was thinking, maybe we could open up the project with a short garbled radio transmission that ends in screaming or something like that. With a lot of static and distorted voices. Then it would cut off abruptly and in comes EvilHorde's track. What do you think?

Sounds great. Should I do something to the intro so the transmission would fit better?
I mean the fade in is kinda boring after a cool transmission like that. It should maybe start with a bang like in a movie trailer sort of way... Whaddya think?

And I just thought... My track incidentally ends in a similar way... the music stops and then theres the sudden "scarescream". I don´t know if its important but its an interesting detail I happened to notice.

AND YET, if a few mixers do the transmission it would be kinda funny to add inside humor to it. Like hide little jokes in there to the transmission... YEE-HAW. Too bad I´m propably not gonna be able to participate in the making of the transmission cause I have no mic. Well, if it comes to that I might be able to use the headphones but.. WELL...

[The Orichalcon]

Evilhorde, I sent that music to Myth, it's similar to what he was after. Since your guitar just sort of fades in, maybe it could just be sampled over that part of your piece?

[KyrenGraves]

I can help seed the project when it gets done, depending on when it gets done. If it's gonna be after the new year, I can definitely donate bandwidth (last final's tomorrow, going home for xmas break). Not like I use the college cable for anything other than downloading stuff.

So yeah, keep up the good work, can't wait til it's release.

[EvilHorde]

Yeah that crossed my mind too. Sounds good.

[Navi]

I dont estimate project completion until early February, so I'm gonna put you down/

[KyrenGraves]

Yeah, I can hack February.

About that radio intro, I was thinking if you didn't want to do the static and tactical chatter approach, you could always style it as a doom 3 log. I don't really know what you could put in it, but still, it's a thought.

[Navi]

How does "Dark Side of Phobos" strike you people as a title? It harkens back to Pink Floyds Dark Side of the Moon, plus it goes well with the cover.


Input?

[The Orichalcon]

Like I said in the channel. I think it needs a little something more, like Incarnate,

"Dark Side of Phobos Incarnate"

[The Joker]

Or... Or... The rover along the dark side of a hell painted landscape: On Mars!

[Global-Trance]

I was thinking "Earth to Mars" as in a play on the phrase used on someone that's oblivious to his/her surroundings... i.e. "Earth to John!"

But that sounds kinda funny to me.

[EvilHorde]

How does "Dark Side of Phobos" strike you people as a title? It harkens back to Pink Floyds Dark Side of the Moon, plus it goes well with the cover.


Input?

Sounds good. I like the use of "Phobos" in the title cause it gives you a little hint on what this all is about. It doesn´t just say "DOOOM SOUNDTRACK Y´ALL". And of course people familiar with doom (read:everyone) know that theres Doom stuff ahead.

[Navi]

I'm trying to think of possible variations on "DSoP" that would give it a darker feel...

...All that comes to mind is DOOOOM 2 REEEEMIXXX!

[The Joker]

Hmmmm, how about, "Dark Skies, Crimson Fields". Or we could call it, "Doom Remix Project: Hunt for the Blood Orchid".

Oh, & incidently, I've updated my mix! But you gotta search for the link.

[EvilHorde]

...All that comes to mind is DOOOOM 2 REEEEMIXXX!

YEAH! THATS IT! WE´LL TAKE IT!

[Larsec]

A few ideas for the title...

My own prime candidate:

Doom Remix Project: Game Over!!!

(...the !!! are meant to be part of the title :))

Other suggestions:

Dawning Dark
Darkest of Dawns
Darkest Red
Red Night
Sound of Hell
Hell Runeth Over
Cry of Black
End of Morrow

[Geko]

Not like I have a say, but I think that title is great.

[KyrenGraves]

i like larsec's suggestion, sounds of hell would be a good name for a doom collection.

[Global-Trance]

Where the hell are the pictures?!

[Navi]

Come on people. You heard the man. Website design is going down. Fulfil deadline stated on front page.

[The Orichalcon]

the first of the seventeenth?

:wink:

[Navi]

actually that number means nothing. i have no clue why its there.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

I'll have my picture before the end of the month and my bio Sunday.

[The Joker]

I too will try to have my pic & bio in by next year. I've been real busy as of late, but I'm on it, fo sho! holla!

[-RK-]

I'll get my stuff in soon. Just need a day to sit down and get stuff done.

[Nazxul]

Hey everyone, I've was just lookin through the forums and stumbled across this. This is so cool!! I've always loved Doom and its music and I just wanna wish you guys the best of luck in producing this! There's just a little insignificant something that I'd like to add to all this... http://www.doomworld.com/classicdoom/info/music.php
That page contains all the official and original names for all the songs in Doom. I hadn't seen the real names anywhere on this thread so I thought I'd let you in. They might help you think of names for your own remixes or you might wanna include them somehow in the track listings or in the CD booklet or whatnot. And I was just wondering if there is a page where I can find all of the completed tracks and WIP's all on the one page? That would be great.
So yeah, good luck guys and keep up the awesome work!!

Peace

[The Orichalcon]

I received a reply from my model friend.

About being the "cover model" :p Sure, I don't mind doing it. It will be a bit of a buzz I guess!!! I guess it does depend on what the guy wants me to do, but I can look demonic haha. Would he be editing the picture? Cuz i have a mate who is really good at photomanipulation and he would probably be able to do something to make me demon-like if you dont have anyone that can do it (although I'm sure you would have someone that could!) Ryan has a pet snake (actually two at the moment - he's borrowed his friends as well) so I could even get a picture of me with a couple of snakes wrapped around my arm, if that sounds cool and demon looking! You can suggest it to your friend anyway.

Let me know what you want, draw up some readable poses in paint along with explanations to make them clear and I can get them taken for you. I assume you can digitally manipulate the photo the way you want. Snakes Yes/No. And tell me how many photo's you want and how big. I'll get them here asap.

[Mr. Bottle Rocket]

i know this project is basicly for the pc version of doom...but i wonder if any of you would be interested in taking a crack at the title music for Doom64, i find it has great potencial.

Uhh. No.

[The Orichalcon]

G-T, Myth. Let me know ASAP so I can email her.

[Global-Trance]

I'm not down with snakes in this case seeing that they have nothing to do with Doom. If everyone else wants it that's cool with me. Also if her friend is willing to photo-manipulate her go ahead. It'll save me trouble. However if he does, I would like the original photo + the manipulation incase I don't like it. 8) The rest is up to everyone else.

[The Orichalcon]

I still need the sketches to send to her so she knows what to take.

I'll just send the originals. Do you want her in front of a greenboard, or just anywhere? Lemme know?

[Global-Trance]

We have sketches?

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

The rough sketch Mythril did for how he wanted the girl posed.

[The Orichalcon]

Well I can't get her to pose unless I know how you want it.

Snap snap, on the spot.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

Tommorow, I'm posting my W.I.P, and my picutre. The bio is the hard part.

[Global-Trance]

Well I don't have sketches, so ask Mythril.

[Navi]

I'm more for the character in isolation of a black background. Sort of like a gollum stance, hunched down, protruding out of the darkness with a demonic look

that didnt seem like a bad idea. I'll come up with a scetch tomorrow.

[reelmojo]

Since my previous suggestions for titles were jokes I'll suggest something for real now:

The 21 Layers of Hell (with this one the track listing could go along with the theme ie. "Layer 1: Evil Horde - Mix Title...")
For the Prince (this has a double meaning: The Prince of Darkness or Bobby Prince)
Eleven Years in Hell (Doom is 11 years old)
Melophobia (fear of music)

And if no one has volunteered to be the voice in the garbled radio transmission I'd be more than happy to do it. At least then I'm contributing somehow. :wink:

[EvilHorde]

Melophobia (fear of music)


Hmm.. We could try to twist this and include Phobos to "phobia". Like Melophobos... Okay, a really bad example but still. Phobia and Phobos are so close together we might get something out of it... But I´m not in a creative mood right now apparently..
WELL....
We seem to be having so many title suggestions its gonna be really hard to just pick one. But its good to have choices...

BTW:
The 21 Layers of Hell (with this one the track listing could go along with the theme ie. "Layer 1: Evil Horde - Mix Title...")
I kinda like this one.

[The Orichalcon]

How about "MooD"

Music of our DooM

[The Joker]

How about...

music to get you in the
MooD

Or... The Anatomy of a Nightmare.

[Navi]

I would like all the mixers to check back in, in the thread, in the next few days please.


edit: with an idea of progress, please.


also: Danny B has offered his vocal skills for anyone that needs a vocalist for their track. get into contact with him if you can, via his secret AIM account and maybe something could come of it.

[k u n g f u c h i c k e n]

I like the 21 Layers of Hell Idea.

[Larsec]

I like the 21 Layers of Hell Idea.
As do I...

[Larsec]

Oh, and by the way, for those who haven't seen this: http://cdoom.d3files.com/index.php?page=news... Maybe it was posted elsewhere on this site, I don't know... Thought it should posted in this thread as well :)

[The Orichalcon]

I listened to E1M4 from that... it's pretty good. I recommend a listen.
