The Plutonia Experiment and TNT: Evilution remain the lone community-created Doom campaigns that made the mythical journey from PWAD to IWAD - and to date, they stand as two of the most influential, popular, widely-played, and widely-remembered wads ever to release. Unlike the id boys’ seminal Doom releases, TNT and Plutonia mostly reused music we were already familiar with. Plutonia in particular had no music but retreads - and that’s why, in 2013, the community came together to give it the musical treatment it always deserved. Thus we were granted the legendary Plutonia MIDI Pack, a treasure trove of high-quality music crafted by the community’s finest. It’s enhanced and recharged uncounted Plutonia playthroughs since, and has served as a valuable resource of music for the community’s consideration. It was an unequivocal success - and yet, in all the time since then, Plutonia’s older sister has not been fortunate enough to receive the same treatment. I’m here to announce that that’s changing. I’ve spent the past couple months darting around the community in secret, recruiting as many composers as I could, from as many different eras of our community as I could. The team I’m working with to provide TNT: Evilution with a full, high quality musical score is lined top to bottom with household names both old and new, and they could not be more qualified for the work at hand. Let’s answer the one question on everyone’s mind - what about the pre-existing TNT music? It’s all returning! Every classic TNT tune will be reprised in reimagined and extended form to bring the whole soundtrack up to modern quality without sacrificing the established favorites. They each appear in the map that originally debuted them - a Sadistic remix in MAP01, a Death’s Bells remix in MAP04, and so on. The maps which did not debut a new TNT track will be given all-new midis for this project. And, as is to be expected of MIDI packs, all tracks will be vanilla-compatible and free to reuse for your own wads! Note that, unlike most other MIDI pack threads, this is not an open project and we are not accepting submissions - I have already sought out other composers to collaborate with, and everything is attended to. I understand this may disappoint some of you, but rest assured I have taken every possible measure to ensure the soundtrack you’ll get out of this project will be of top-of-the-line quality. You are in for a real treat. So, who exactly am I working with here? Well, I’d like to invite my co-contributors to post in the thread below, sharing the maps you can expect to hear them composing for! As I said, we’ve got an all-star roster on our hands, with more than just a few community staples lending their musical chops to this project. I could not be more grateful to have their help and guidance. I am contributing four solo tracks to this project, myself - you’ll hear my takes on Tom Mustaine’s More and Infinite in MAP05 and MAP10 respectively, as well as original tunes for MAP27 and MAP29! The TNT: Evilution MIDI Pack will be released on June 17th, 2021 - the day Final Doom turns 25 years old!

continuum.mid Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) If anyone wants to preview this MIDI Pack, I plan to release the tracks I worked with Cammy on for the title screen and MAP30 - Last Call, TNT's Icon of Sin map - as part of an album that should come out very soon, with its own Doomworld thread. Without spoiling anything, when Cammy says he has an all-star roster, he means it. 10 Share this post Link to post

P41R47 Posted May 4, 2021 now this is the perfect year for Dooming! Final Doom turns 25 and we get the long awaited TNT: Evilution Midi Pack. This is serious shit, guys! Hope you deliver some real bangers! And hope @Lippeth and @Bucket to be on the project as they are my favourite composers, and made really awesome tunes in line with the original TNT soundtrack. ;) 6 Share this post Link to post
Rudolph Posted May 4, 2021 An announcement already! That was fast. I guess I need not to bother with putting a replacement soundtrack together on my own after all... :P 2 Share this post Link to post

I'd be interested to see how you reallocate Icarus and Perdition's Gate/Hell to Pay music to fit Evilution, despite having heard parts of this pack. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lippeth Posted May 4, 2021 @P41R47 but of course! I'll be collaborating with cammy to do a cover of map 02's original song, Dragonfly for a cover of map 06, and one original song all by my lonesome for map 24. There might be at least one more original from me but that's what's on the menu for now. I'm so excited to be involved in a project with such legendary composers, and hope that our combined efforts succeed in elevating such a classic wad! 9 Share this post Link to post

I have not actually, as I am just not familiar enough with those megawads and their soundtracks to do so just yet. And if this project turns out well, I probably never will. Like I said in another topic, for the longest time, I thought "Soldier of Chaos" was from Duke Nukem 3D. :P 1 Share this post Link to post
Dragonfly Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) I sure hope my take on the introductory slot, Sadistic, which is heard in MAP01 does the original justice! I've been listening to a few of the other contributions and let me tell you, you're in for a treat. :) 4 Share this post Link to post

If all the tracks were covers or pulled from the internet, that might be an exception. You did contribute to MIDTWID, so clearly there is at least one more exception... Nonetheless, I totally get it. Until Cammy contacted me, I was also of the opinion that TNT was not in need of a custom soundtrack, because it already had one, and the Doom/Doom 2 soundtrack re-use was purposeful (well, mostly?) 0 Share this post Link to post

Much like what you made for MIDTWID and Plutonia MIDI Pack. Apologies for not double checking it, pal. 1 Share this post Link to post

Diabolución Posted May 5, 2021 Hell yes! Full replacement or bust! I am glad you, Cammy, took into account this old post of mine, presumably. It may be a coincidence, though. https://www.doomworld.com/forum/post/2229122/ What a bunch of fucking killing machines congregated, by the way. 2 Share this post Link to post

P41R47 Posted May 5, 2021 this year could only be better if we receive for the 25 years of Final Doom, not only this awesome midipack, but the long awaited TNT2: Devilution that is on development since...like 12 years? 1 Share this post Link to post

Sadly Devilution is unlikely to be released. Such a total waste of a promising megawad. I actually wanted to take over the project and create the last few maps myself as there were like two maps that were needed to be created from memory. 1 Share this post Link to post
AD_79 Posted May 5, 2021 Cool project, curious to see what you all do with it. I never really cared for TNT's music much to begin with, especially as a good portion of the music is recycled from Doom 2. If you're going to write a soundtrack, it's best to write a full one IMO! 4 minutes ago, pcorf said: Sadly Devilution is unlikely to be released. Such a total waste of a promising megawad.

I'm not entirely sure how you planned to take over a project that is still being actively maintained and worked on, anyways. 5 Share this post Link to post
