Another D1 song I'd wanted to cover for a while.  I'd had the general idea in my head for a long time but it only went about as far as me wanting it to have vocals -- and those vocals to be sung, not rapped or Ogre'd.

So fast forward to yesterday, when I just started working on it.  And it came out beautifully.
Then I wrote lyrics and they came out beautifully too.  Generally I really like this mix, if you couldn't tell already.

A bunch of the lyrics are references to the mine (like the line about brothers fighting together), or to the moon it takes place on.  Generally I think this is one of my favourites so far.

Descent level 20  -- Zombie Apocalypse remake!
Tons of pitch-bending on EVERYTHING makes it sound like it's being played on a guitar synth.
Dark and badass.

A little bit of Haunted in there too

Vocals are by Jim Johnson: Jingle Jock!

Don't let it hit you
You know what you see
You fight the superweapon
Made by a mining company
It has missiles and guns
And believe you me
This weapon will tempt you
With the power to be

Resist the temptation
Fight the power
Hold your own and
Destroy the weapon
Don't listen to it
Treacherous lies!
You know you want it
But you won't you won't you won't

Don't let the weapon hit you!
Don't let the robot see!
Don't let the weapon hit you!
You know you want it but you won't you won't you won't

You know that you want it but you won't you won't you won't
You know that you want it but you won't you won't you won't
You know that you want it but you won't you won't you won't
You know that you want it but you won't you won't you won't
This is the superweapon
It can give you the power to rule
You know that you want it but you won't you won't you won't
You know that you want it but you won't you won't you won't

Remix of Descent 2 Game 3

Keeps the percussive feel of the original and amps up the creepiness.
Musically, instead of making a couple of big changes to some parts, I made a whole lot of little changes to the key, melody, chord progression etc.  There's only really one big change in the melody and you hear it right away.

The other big changes are to the percussion to make the song feel more chaotic.  Including some cool filtering effects on the drums.

D3-style remix of the D1 level 19 music.
Mild swing rhythm -- because, in fact, of all the D1 and D2 music this song fits a swing rhythm best.

Mars Processing Station rap remix Roll Eyes.

It even has vocals... by Blaster Bamboozle: the Balladeer from Beta Ceti!

Deep inside the smelter I have found a killer swarm
Lancing homing flying box of death
The red ones are a challenge they can sneak in from behind
The blue one can make all the others stronger

All these flying death machines
Are made from what is mined here
Virally infected and then weaponized
All these flying death machines
Are made from ore refined here
They must be stopped destroy the smelter
Or they will reach earth

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Deep inside the smelter we have found an obstacle
Flying lancing flaming ship that must explode
Red ones you corner him
Blue ones you amplify them
Grey ones you deal the final blow

All these flying death machines
Are made from what is mined here
Virally infected and then weaponized
All these flying death machines
Are made from ore refined here
Virally infected and then weaponized
All these flying death machines
Are made from what is MINE here
They must be stopped destroy the smelter
Or they will reach my--

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Blast the flying box of doom

Dodge the homing rocket

Grab the upgrade green
++
x2

All the keys and reach the core
They can't fight me anymore
Go, blast away and start the countdown

Find the exit hatch
Kill the power patch
Head up, to the surface
I start to breathe again
