So, here we are, you guys. Today is a joyous, yet somewhat sad kind of day, bittersweet I guess you could say. The end of my third DOOM Marathon. Let us all take a fond look back at the "journey" up to this point, from the announcement to this cover =).

This one is definitely one of my absolute favorites in the soundtrack! After beating map01 and upon entering the intermission screen, I was just in awe right from the first beat of the song. I absolutely knew I needed to save this one for the grand finale.

I was also quite nervous working on this one, since I know I'm not the only one that really loves this track! Throughout the whole marathon I kept thinking about this one, and wasn't sure how I would handle covering it. Though, after completing all the tracks that came before it, I was finally in the right sort of mindset to work on this one.

As I worked on this, I really wanted to focus on that bittersweet feeling I had mentioned earlier. I wanted to capture the melancholic sound the original had, yet I also wanted to add this powerful, hopeful emotion to it.

Originally, I was thinking of using some guitars, and having a "heavy" finish, but using guitars for this one just didn't quite sound right to me. I guess once you go full orchestral, there's no going back, huh?

I really, really enjoyed playing the piano for this one. I followed along with the original for the first minute, then when things started to kick in, I just sort of went with the flow and improvised the melody from thereon out.

I'm also quite proud of the way this one sounds. I think this is probably my most "movie-soundtrack-sounding" work I've ever done yet!

I also enjoyed putting the video together. I decided to do what I had done for the DOOM 2 Marathon finale, editing together all the previous covers from the marathon. Except this time, I decided to do something a bit different, since this channel has more than doubled in size since those days. I included a lot of your lovely comments posted throughout this marathon! There's a lot of new faces to go alongside with the old now. My apologies if your comment didn't make it into the video, I tried fitting as many as I could.

Anyways, I hope you all enjoy this finale! I'll be focusing mainly on some non-Doom stuff for the rest of this month, before I take on the very large, "Plutonia MIDI Pack"!

So, until next time! ~DAR

P.S: Happy 4th of July to my fellow American viewers/subscribers! Hope y'all have a good BBQ and good day today =).
