I really love the mood and pacing of this track. Starts off soft and melancholic, then the heavy guitars fade in, and when the drums finally kick in, you know its time to kick ass! That back and forth between the clean guitar parts and heavy parts make for a nice contrast.

Very happy to finally get to use my Stratocaster for the audio-side of things during this cover! I really wanted to try and imitate the Clean Guitar sound from the MIDI, so the humbuckers on my Ibanez just weren't going to cut it. This was a job for some single-coil pickups! After slapping a chorus effect on to the clean parts, I managed to get the exact sound I was hearing in my head!

I've kept the structure of the song exactly the same as the original. I only added a few small new lead parts here and there. Like the parts from 0:50-1:42 and 2:17-2:34 were originally just the rhythm guitar parts. I felt compelled to try adding some things to go along with these segments. I had also threw in some choirs for some dramatic effect. I also finally got to use my tremolo/whammy bar for the first time since the RED PLANET albums! One of the new parts I really enjoyed doing was the bit from 1:59-2:17/5:42-6:00. I really liked using that hammer-on/pull-off technique to get that sort of "Schism" sound.

The fast bits were nice, but challenging for me (since I'm not really that kind of style of guitarist!). I also always totally forget how to properly play the parts once its time to get around to the video production (and always usually have to go through the slow process of relearning the parts all over again)! Since I'm running on a tight schedule of new content every 2-4 days, I've gotta cut some corners (so no guitar dance in this one!). So forgive my laziness/haste when it comes to that!

The only other little new addition were the screams from 4:24-4:32. I swear, that scream of mine has become a stock sound-effect for me now! Used it for the RED PLANET albums, the DOOM 3 cover, and for a few other things I think. I also threw in DoomGuy's death scream for 4:29-4:32 since it felt right for that build-up before everything kicks back in.

Anyhow, I enjoyed cutting together the gameplay for this video. I really like switching between the original D64 level and the D64D2 conversion. I decided to throw on a tint of green for the D64D2 level in order to imitate the lighting of the original level (plus it makes switching between the two a little more visually consistent).

Anyways, hope you all enjoy the cover! ~DAR
