Are piano music fit DOOM ?

Post by massacrebosco »

I know that most of DOOM background music are metal music, pop songs or electronic music...etc.
But how about piano music ? :?: :)

For example, I have made some piano music like this :
https://soundcloud.com/massacrebosco/au ... movement-1
https://soundcloud.com/massacrebosco/au ... sonata-3nd

Is there any chance to put these into BGM that will fit DOOM ? Maybe suitable for "mini games" wads ? :3:

Go for it, but I have to ask where you've heard pop and electronic music in doom wads. I mean unless it's a music only wad, I'd be surprised if it was in a megawad.

Emmm.....I found them in some deathmatch wads. I also have heard Ladygaga's music in one of the deathmatch map.
Maybe the music in deathmatch wads are more diverse. :3:

That depend on what kind of piano musics would fit with the ambiance/atmosphere you are looking for.

Doom for me always seem to be focused on 3 categories of music.

Rock,metal and maybe techno wich represent the fast paced action.

Dark and atmospheric wich represent the demons/hellspawn and hell.

And in some rare occasions musics that doesnt fit in the first 2 categories.( an exemple being Pharaoh/map 31 of TnT Evilution wich is a piano song with a kind of sad tone)

You should check out the music wad i compiled,some of the musics in it is pretty much just like the one you are talking about,give me your toughts on it.

http://www.moddb.com/games/doom/addons/ ... -music-wad (only work with Doom 2,Plutonia and Tnt wad,i didnt made one for Doom 1)

This music wad is for a project/idea im trying to start,if you are interested you can check it out here http://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=45521

As long as the music fits the actual theme of the map/current game.
