Mick Gordon on Composing DOOM's Soundtrack

[@ShadyPossum]

after hearing what he did with DOOM, its hilarious to think he started with Destroy All Humans and Nickelodeon games

[@ashesofaranea]

destroy all humans had a amazing soundtrack imo, music was perfect for the game.

[@FutBoy281]

I just got done with DH2! a week ago and found it eerie that the soundtrack occasionally sounded so familiar Now I know why

[@WayStedYou]

[@ALaz502]

Checking in from 11/2022. Mick looks so happy here. So sad how all of this turned out.

[@INSANESUICIDE]

Did I miss something? What went bad?

[@michaelmonstar4276]

@@INSANESUICIDE Not "this" necessarily, but there was a bunch of drama surrounding the "Eternal" soundtrack, in that... well, a lot. - There's an entire statement by Mick Gordon himself, a whole write-up, receipts and everything, which he released a while after some producers at id/Bethesda tried to make him look like the bad guy, with things like him not turning in the work or whatever. - But the truth is that they screwed him over in a few other ways, like making him wait, keeping him out of the loop, not paying him for months, and not even responding to that, causing him to not have enough time, which they also just wouldn't grant him - On top of that, they also used his music-work in ways he didn't agree to, such as how they let someone else mix it poorly and slap it onto the game in ways it wasn't intended, unlike how it went with the first game. It's still a bit of a mystery as to what the hell happened there and why, but for some reason they (some people) started just excluding Mick like he's not part of the team and worth consulting with. It's just really weird and... well, anyway... He ended up deciding that he probably would never work with id/Bethesda again after this treatment, because nobody stood up for him and, yea, I would agree out of principle. - This also seems to leave the "Eternal" soundtrack in a weird sort of limbo, because while it might be in the game, albeit not as it was intended, the separate soundtrack, I believe, is also not quite as it should be, or it was released without his supervision. I don't remember exactly. But at least it's not available as a physical release, or even on streaming I believe. It's probably either because it's just not a finished/coherent soundtrack or because of all the disagreements and there might be legal issues because of what happened. - I HOPE Mick is somehow holding the soundtrack hostage out of spite.

[@INSANESUICIDE]

@@michaelmonstar4276 A few days after asking this the statement by Mick appeared in my feed, it was disgusting how they offered to pay him if he take the blame for the situation he did not have any power over and take all the blame. I am glad that he stuck by his integrity and refused to be treated like some cheap prostitute. It is insane to me how anyone could think this behavior is acceptable and that it is right to do..

[@IchbinX]

Same here. As soon as I heard some tracks from KI, I was like, "Who is this guy!? I'm downloading all his shit!" :D

[@Vynzent]

Haven't played KI yet, sadly, but hearing his songs on Woflenstein:TNO, especially "Ransacked," I knew he was worthy of doing the music for DOOM and future great titles.

[@Cheeks730]

if he sound metal for Prey then i don't think so. I hope he does something special maybe orchestral with Prey otherwise his music will be the same. Cause New order, Killer Instinct, and Doom all contain similar music

[@Vynzent]

"Similar" is a poor and vague term. No one would expect to hear a track from DOOM in Wolfenstein or a track from Wolfenstein in DOOM. They are just as different as they are similar.

1:47 “The first game I ever worked on was Destroy all humans...” Could you be anymore perfect Mick?

[@robc6022]

It is his destiny. It was the beginning of the Doom Music Prophecy.

[@Irregular_John]

Let me preface this by saying that it’s the first time I’ve ever been compelled to write some sort of thank you note to the creators of the game. DOOM made such a strong impression on me and I’ve been gaming since mid-90s. Main points: 1) All the guys at id Software & Mick Gordon working as a tight unit, almost like a rock band where every musician counts: singer, guitar player, bass player and drummer, all working together to create a complete package where all the parts counts equally. All the people involved in creating this game, programmers, level designers, animators, gameplay mechanics engineers, sound designers and composer created something that in my opinion will surely stand the test of time and in my book is definitely a Game of the Year. In terms of FPS games DOOM is this shining light in the darkness that is third person cover-based console games. Amount of options this game has for PC is mind-blowing, not to mention amazing optimization and visuals. The last but not the least is the fact that id guys played their game relentlessly and it shows. 2) Hugo, love this guy, 80s movie references, love for NIИ and Pearl Jam, such an outspoken guy that is clearly passionate about the game, it seems like you could talk to him just about anything. Pacific Rim (hell yeah!), love this movie and Jeager designs is a big part of that. 3) It’s impossible to separate Mick Gordon’s soundtrack from the game because it’s such an integral part of it yet you could hum the melodies/riffs he created and that’s a testament to the fact that his work is superb. Be sure to check out Mick’s 2-part mini-documentary about creating music for DOOM on his KZbin channel. Huge props to Mick, very humble guy. 4) Danny, thanks a bunch for creating noclip, this DOOM documentary in particular as well as extended interviews with Hugo Martin and Mick Gordon. Content like this is sorely missed in gaming journalism. After watching those extended interviews with Hugo and Mick I was amazed by how you skillfully managed to incorporate DOOM music snippets, gameplay footage and scenes from Robocop and The Last Boyscout Hugo referenced in all the right places too.

[@w1nr322]

I didnt even read it but yeah

[@michaelmonstar4276]

Just too bad what happened on the production of "Eternal"... Not such a tight unit after all... Though, perhaps due to some bad apples jumping in at some point. I don't know.

[@Ohem1]

I like how sincere Mick is.

[@DanielLorey]

With everything that has happened on the Doom Eternal OST, there needs to be a part 2! 🙏🏻

[@munkholt]

Excellent stuff. Mick does a great job at formulating the work and thought process (and work ethic, wow).

[@Poillip]

What always amazes me about the soundtrack to Doom 2016 is how fundamental it is to the game's experience AS background tracks, while also being so incredibly listenable on it's own. I credit this quality Mick's approach, as he describes it in this vid. He gets an emotional feel for the game itself, and then composes music to amplify that feeling. In doing so, he creates tracks that truly resonate with listeners at an emotional level, and not just as an accessory to the game. A true genius of our time. So glad this man is getting the recognition and praise he deserves for his work. I hope other composers and those still learning the craft take Mick Gordon's success as a lesson. When you treat videogames as art and engage your craft with passion, then your creation ends up that much stronger for it.

[@Dodgelovesyou]

Such a great interview, CANT BELIEVE that Id and Bethesda did so dirty on such a great person like mick, like i can feel the pure passion and hardwork.he does from the way he talks, the way he has been mistreated is so shitty, honestly hope that mick gets his justice and that we can just hope for a better doom eternal ost album 😭

We don’t deserve mick. He’s way too humble and talented.

Correct. XD - I always expected him to be almost the exact opposite. (I don't know why I got that idea.) - Was I wrong. He seems exactly the type of person I could connect with, this kind of sympathetic and more gentle person.

[@cosmicparsec9463]

I think they can already start producing this documentary independently, but I would wait at least a year to release it because there may still be new episodes in this plot.

[@overdev1993]

would be good, but I think Bethesda will take legal action even if they would lose. they could do a dcoumentary and then release it after the potential legal stuff.

[@michaelmonstar4276]

I've been asking this as well. - I want Noclip to be like the Vice of videogames, as in getting the deep cuts behind the productions, not just "How did you design this and that?". - I want the same for the "CP2077"-debacle, probably by interviewing some people who witnessed it and such. - I also still want to hear Sean Murray and co. their experience, from the inception of Hello Games and 'No Man's Sky' to the present. Because we never really heard their perspective on everything (unless there are interviews out there), and it should be clarified to people what it was like for them to be thrown into the deep end of hype coming off frickin' Joe Danger. - But yea, I'm still quite puzzled about why they did Mick dirty like that, after good collaborations prior, and which a-holes are responsible for that mess.

[@Allen.Christian]

They wouldn't do this, because the kind of documentaries they make require access to these companies, and companies won't work with you if they know they might be called to the carpet for their actions. ZeniMax has already vocally supported the greaseball Marty Stratton, and the other higher-ups at id have supported him with their silence.
