DOOM | D64D2 - Dream, Dream Eternal [Cover By DAR] | MAP31

Back around 4 years ago, I remember setting this song aside for the end of the marathon. Its certainly been a long time coming. Finally, the last of the level themes for the soundtrack! (2 more to go after this one!)

As I listened to this and worked on it, I started imagining this playing while some credits roll. So I figured I'd do something like that for the video here. All 33 map layouts (courtesy of Doom Wiki), and credits for the project.

I kept true to the original MIDI, just bumping it up a semi-tone in pitch, and also adding in a DAR-style solo/outro for the end. I've gotta say, I really enjoyed recording leads on this one, especially that original solo at the end. I'd almost say it's been worth the 4 year wait! I feel that with the experience I've gained over time as a producer/musician has really helped me go into this one with full confidence. Quite surprised that I wasn't nervous for once! Compared to the end of the previous Doom Marathons, I used to always get really nervous/stressed when it came to the last handful of songs.

I'm also really glad still that I've gotten back into using my whammy/wang bar during my playing. I love playing with my wang... no wait, that came out wrong!

Joking aside, I really am happy to be incorporating the tremolo into my leads and solos. I had actually stopped using it for quite a while, mainly because I couldn't get it to sit in the right position anymore after a few years of use. That, and I worried about going out of tune and stuff like that. A while back, I decided to throw in a tremolo-arm spring that I had for my Strat, and those wound up doing the trick. To my surprise also, my beloved Ibanez still manages to hold its tuning even with all the whammy action going on.

While the solo at the end probably isn't the most technical or fast & flashy, it was such a joy to play (my favorite style of playing after all!). Felt really good to make the guitar sing and cry there for the solo at the end!

The whammy bar also got some use on the rhythm guitars as well! Mainly dipping down in pitch at the end of the chorus sections.

Anyways, I hope you all enjoy the cover! Hope you all look forward to the intermission and stat screens up next! It might take me a little bit longer, since I also need to double-check everything to make sure everything's good to go for the music pack/WAD! ~DAR
