I wanted to give my best shot at singing this song. I enjoy Owl City, but his over-use of pitch correction kinda grates on me. So, here it is with all my own imperfections!

This is for my buddy Mark Klem who wanted more Rush covers. I can't remember exactly when I did this, but I noticed I had yet to make a post for it. So Mark, here ya go.

And a big congratulations to the members of my favorite band, Rush, for being inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. Rush is touring! This tour will be the first time they play Moving Pictures in its entirety, which will be cool on many levels. The Camera Eye has never been played live.
A long time ago, I did some parodies of the Anheuser-Busch commercial series, "Real Men of Genius." These were done for a couple of sites surrounding either topical information on video games, or a specific video game. You can now download all of them here for the first time!
Coming around is a great song by Brad Sucks. I just had an opportunity to put some vocals to it.

JD Herrera, a young man from Italy, has been covering some songs from Memento Mori II from Doom2. One of them is And Blood Will Spill by yours truly. I did this back in 1997. It's humbling and exciting to hear someone else do your music.

Probably one of my most-requested songs, it's Cindy from Tammany Hall. These guys kick ass.
Some of you may not know this, but I used to write music for the most popular game of all time, Doom. Doom was the crucible in the evolution of PC games. I occasionally, because I'm totally vain, Google myself and see what others have to say about me.

-Almost every song Mark Klem and Tolwyn has made for a project.
Agreed, so I am surprised no one has mentioned STRAIN yet. Especially that crazy medley from level 2 and really memorable tunes from levels 11 and 14.
When it comes to entire WADs, Icarus is #1 for me. It has a recurring theme (and a cool one!) that appears on levels 2,7,12,26... maybe more. Also the music from the 1st level is worth mentioning. And 22 (But it's actually a J.S.Bach's fugue; I couldn't be more surprised when I heard it in a Doom level)
MM: levels 9,11,14. MM2: levels 5,9 (fantastic riff),14 and 26 (when all of a sudden, a theme from MM appears).
Requiem seems much weaker, but levels 7 (a tribute to Rush) and 11 have cool tunes again.
OK, if I had to skip Klem & Tolwyn, I would choose HR2. Heavy metal tracks suit the levels well and this music is not as naive as "heavy" music from original Doom.
Ahhh. Good times. For the record, I still write music, and actually still write music for games, but I don't normally use the nickname Tolwyn anymore.
Wanted to post my cover of Red Barchetta from Rush before I simply get too old to sing it. Enjoy!

: Is there any way I can download the remastered Icarus soundtrack?
