Project: Doom was released such a long time ago... Back in the year 2008. With Doom: Gaiden - Insertion's v1.2 update, I decided it was time to go back and revisit Doom's soundtrack with an updated feel.

At Doom's Gate |
At Doom's Gate has always been an iconic song, and I don't feel like I ever did it proper justice in Project: Doom. So this redux was a second attempt at this piece, to give it the love it needed. |

The Imp's Song |
For The Imp's Song (Redux), I once again revisit my childhood years to bring back a feeling of suspense for this track. With a little ass kicking toward the second half of the song for good measure.
Replaces MAP02's theme in Doom: Gaiden. Inspired by Andrew Hushult's cover. |
Download |
Yes |
Dark Halls |
I feel like the original 2008 release was a little bit overkill as far as metal-wise for this track. So I went back and reworked it from the ground up. Just enough metal undertones to remind you that yes, you are stupid overpowered and blowing shit up. |
Download |
Yes |
Kitchen Ace (And Taking Names) |
I've always wanted to flesh out the drums on this song, ever since I released Project: Doom. And now, after seven years, I finally got around to it. Woo! |
Download |
Yes |
Suspense |
Ahh, Suspense. Doom wasn't all about killing everything that moved. With the right amount of atmosphere, you could create a truly threatening environment. This track mixes old with new, bridging the gap between Classic and Project: Doom.
Replaces MAP03's theme in Doom: Gaiden. Based on Sonic Clang's cover, and inspired by Andrew Hushult's awesome idea of mixing ambience with metal. |

Yes |
On the Hunt |
To be honest, I've had this stuck in my head for years now, and it feels good to finally be able to put it into form. Admittedly, one of my favorite things to do is to take a short loop of music and extend it into something much more fulfilling. So this was my attempt at doing such with this song. |

Yes |
Demons on the Prey |
Heavy influenced by The Orichalcon's "Phobos Modulus" and Kinkiness' E1M7 covers. |
Download |
Yes |
Sign of Evil |
One again, I felt Project: Doom fell short of this one. This theme really needs the pitch bending I was unable to provide at the time, but rather than just update the existing track, I went and rewrote it from scratch. Heavily influenced by Sonic Clang's E1M8 theme. |
Download |
Yes |
Hiding the Secrets |
2008 release was a bit barebones. I decided to work this one with a definitively heavier tone. I guess years of listening to Thumpmonk's amazing cover sorta influenced this. |

Yes |
Intermission From DOOM |
...Come on. You knew I was going to take another crack at this one, for sure. The goal of this one was to ditch the techno junk from the 2008 version and turn it into something hard hitting. Think I succeeded. |
Download |
Yes |
The End of DOOM |
I'll admit, I was kinda disappointed with the 2008 version. For this, I wanted to change the feel from the original. While Prince's version conveys a feeling of, "You barely survived," I wanted this piece to scream, "You just killed everything." |

Yes |
I Sawed the Demons (Redux) |
I was curious to see what this song sounded like with a rock organ. |
Download |
Yes |
The Demons From Adrian's Pen (Redux) |
Really wanted to slow this down and do a sneaky version of this, so I did. |
Download |
Yes |
Demons on the Prey (v2) |
The first redux fits for E1M7, but that's about it. This take is a more universal-fitting theme, closer to the original. |
Download |
Yes |
Waltz of the Demons |
I'd be lying if I said this wasn't inspired by another take by someone else, but I can't remember which wad it was from. Anyway, this is me doing something similar, but trying damn hard not to rip the other guy off! ;) |

Nobody Told Me About iD |
Truly a fantastic mod, you should google it. Oh, it's the name of the song? Shit. |

Untitled |
Wanted to make this one sound more lively. Inspired by Skar Productions' amazing cover. |

Donna to the Rescue |
This one's got the missing OST bit in the beginning. |
Download |
Yes |
Deep Into the Code |
Went for more of a "blood rave" feel to this one. Who knew Pandemonium was a dance club after all? |

Yes |
Facing the Spider |
Did this one for a friend. |

Yes |
Running From Evil |
Running From Evil (Redux) revisits a special time in my childhood where Doom II was brand fragging new. Rather than simply do yet another metal cover of the song, I decide to go back to my childhood roots where it all began - This is Doom II as I heard it when I was ten years old.
This track replaces MAP01's theme in Doom: Gaiden. Heavily inspired by Nemistade's awesome cover of the song. |
Download |
Yes |
The Healer Stalks |
While the original is kinda upbeat, the Project: Doom cover sounds like it was ripped straight out of Super Mario. I wanted to give this piece a makeover, to give it a more decidedly eerie/sneaky feel to it. |

Yes |
Countdown to Death (MAP03 Redux) |
After writing the MAP21 redux, I decided it didn't fit MAP03, so I wrote a second take specifically for early-game. |
Download |
Yes |
Between Levels (Redux) |
Since this turned up in "An Imp Has Fallen Into The River In Doom City," I decided to go back and redo this one. String bits by Lorcan. |

The Demon's Dead (D O O M W A V E) |
Went for an 80s synth feel on this one. I like how it turned out! |

Countdown to Death (MAP21 Redux) |
Welcome back to Hell. Or... Magmoor Caverns? Either way, watch your step. |

Intermission |
No comment, just wanted to do something better than the 2008 release. This was a pain in the ass, though... |

Doom 64 Main Theme |
Well, more like the theme to Doom 64 and PSX Doom, mixed into one song. |

TNT Title Screen |
I never really liked the title theme to TNT, so I rewrote it. |

Yeah. I went there. |

The Demon's Dead (DOOMWAVE) |
It's Doom, but synthwave. |

Well, looks like I've done enough Doom to give it its own section of the site, huh? Not that it's a bad thing...
I'm sure you can already guess this, but Project: Doom is a remix album, devoted to the soundtrack of the Doom games. The idea fot this came from Neurological's "Hell on Earth Sound" project, which, to my knowledge, is in limbo. That, and I really wanted to give the songs a really heavy feel to them!
Anyway, the project consists of 57 tracks, all in a heavy metal/eletctric style. It covers everything except the title themes... That's a lot of work!
Enjoy! And remember, you can download the full album for use with ZDoom in the Doom section of the site (midi versions only).
Now available are some bonus tracks from an "Ultimate DooMix" subsection of Project: Doom, as well as some PSX Doom covers. Check 'em out!
