Did you use FL Studio 20 for this or another music software?

Love it
Nik: drops a doomslayer instrumental
Alex: "heavily breathing"
The heaviest breathing
The Heaviest Breathing of the Universe
Alex Terrible?
@@StormRamirez669yes
Hrrrrrr Hrrrrrr Hrrrrrr......... 😂
Ending with a jab at Bethesda is just Icing. I wish Micky G did more youtube content.
Well deserved
Yep the fact they think they can’t pay mick for the work he did for the two games is fucked. I haven’t played the games but have both soundtracks
Micky G nice
It's nice, but I think it should be more at Marty Stratton and id. In Mick's statement they seemed to be willing to cooperate, at least much more so than Marty. Imho Stratton did a shitload of work gaslighting everyone around himself and after Mick's reveal Behtesda and Zenimax did what any corporation would: they lawyered up and aimed at mutual agreement behind the scenes to keep damage to company's image to a minimum.
@@Torque_Mk1 in mick's statement they seemed to be willing to cooperate but then they answered to mick's statement by saying it was false and they stood with marty and id, so...
This goes so hard it breaks the Mohs scale!
As an engineer, I highly appreciate this joke. It's quality is zirconia out of 10 :)
It's official. Doom guy carries a guitar as his secondary weapon(a 9 string guitar)
He has three of them in the fortress of doom. A Crucible one, a balista one, and a Flesh one
An 8 string one I guess xD
That Baby would be even more powerful that the BFG.... Not the 9k handheld.
The 10k bigboy.
9 strings? Rookie numbers. 10 strings minimum
BFG 9S = Big Fucking Guitar 9 Strings
wtf that breakdown at the end goes so fucking hard
It was the boss battle break down
Dude it's shocked me how good it was
Seriously, I didn't feel ready for it
I need to punch something lmaooo
The pause between a demon screeching and a gunshot is so mega cheeky. Well done 👍
"There's no vocals, we don't need that. The vocals are the demons"
Alex Terrible: "Am I a joke to you?"
He is a demon though
Doom Slayer : "Indeed"
this comment here, yes
Waiting for “Chelsea Grin in 30 seconds” video day 15
darko us
@@nickskytaste4408I’d love that one
would be insane
Old school Chelsea grin preferably
@@skizr4200new chelsea grin is good you must have missed it
Nik has mastered the art of Argent Metal. Mick was born of it... MOLDED by it.
mick has argent energy inside his veins. But the more nik stays on earth, the more powerfull he become.
i can imagine samuel hayden reading this
Mick didn’t hear any other genre until he was already a man
Mick: you've merely adapted to the DOOM. I was born in it
If I hadn't just watched you make this, I would have believed it was from Mick himself
Not fugging joking but you should do more songs like this, or make an album
I hope ID Software will crawl back to Mick and fulfill his every wish for the next game. The Dude carried the new Doom series so hard I am amazed he hasn't broken his back already. Thanks Nick and thanks Mick for your work ❤
This
Of course I'd love another Doom composed by Mick Gordon, but I don't know if Mick would work with them again either way.
I can see him as someone to stick to his guns if he doesn't want to be involved with them at this point.
@@ryo-kai8587 I guess you are right. Mick deserves all the love he gets and I think Doom will never blow up again as it did with his influence
@@Spruehwuerstl No telling what the future will bring. Regardless of drama, the ID team are insanely talented, and the games are always badass. I wouldn't write them off yet. We also have no idea who'll do the music in the next one. We'll all miss Mick after the change, but that doesn't mean they won't find someone awesome in their own right.
@@ryo-kai8587To be fair, no one at id contributed to the soundtrack at all. That’s kind of the problem with the way Bethesda handled the whole situation, they treated a contractor (Mick) like free labor. If Mick were an id Software employee they wouldn’t have tried to get away with the fuckery they pulled on him in the first place.
Nik is officially an understudy for Mick Gordon, should he ever stop writing OST’s. I have spoken.
Edit: as a fellow metal guitarist/production nut, I got a ton of ideas while listening to this so thanks my dude
Dude, totally the same here!
this goes so hard that even my great grandmother came back to life to listen
Now we just need Alex to do a vocal cover lol
Nic make this happen with Alex the Terrible!
honestly, love Alex but man I hate his covers of doom instrumentals. I just don't think he has the flow for em
@@lBadSport well, i love it
Please!
Doom needs no lyrics. Just the voice of the chainsaw.
NOW..... to get Alex Terrible to write some DOOM vocals for this one too
I could listen to Nik and GeoffPlaysGuitar riff some Doom adjacent music all day.
The first "metal" or riffy game music that blew my mind was Frank Klepcki's Command & Conquer and C&C Red Alert series with Westwood Studios. Mick and Frank are LEGENDS!
The soundtracks of those games slaps so hard, probably one of the reasons I'm in to metal these days, got my intro to the genre from those games
I've never seen a more true comment. Throw Bobby Prince in there too (Classic Doom)
Olof Gustafsson on Pinball Dreams/Fantasies. 🙂
I've never played the game Universe at War but I've heard the soundtrack cause Klepacki released it for free. Some great tracks!
Damnit I forgot about the C&C bangers. That shit was half my childhood. 😅
I think if you and Alex collaborate together on a Doom inspired song, the internet would literally explode.
Was gonna say where does Alex get his bit!!!!.. this track seems to be absolutely tailored for him. My neck is sore
Imagine there being a metal band featuring Mick Gordon **(the G.O.A.T. himself)** , Jason Richardson, Alex and Nik Nocturnal.
… I don’t think the world will be ready for that kind of metal band…
Oh yeah, and just for fun… Katsuki Bakugo **(from “My Hero Academia”)** on the drums.
About that, Alex Terribe was featured in Nik's remake of Slaughter to Prevail
It's only natural that the next thing we need is a collab with Mick, cus this song is so on point I can't believe it didn't come straight from Mick himself.
3:41 "I got the putas in my head"
it's funny how Nik would be horrified if he knew what it means in Portuguese and Spanish lmao
Bro has THE PUTAS in his head😢
😂😂😂
We all got at least one puta in our heads.
THAT riff is killer. It's seriously insane. Probably the first "UA-camr" riff to get me to do the stank face.
@NikNocturnal0 Penis?
"I wrote a Nightwish song and got Elizabeth from Charismatic Voice to do vocals" when
this songs a banger tho good job
It is the next full one.
This guy is just A Tier in taking Stuff apart and writing in the style of the original - Please do Cannibal Corpse 😄
Seconding this. Bring on some CC🤘🏻
I can drop this into any Doom 2016 or Doom Eternal level and it meshes perfectly. You absolutely nailed it, keep this quality and energy! Love to see it
Nik is so insanely talented that it hurts my brain. This song slaps so hard!!! Hope Mick sees this!
Hey Nik! If you ever want to look at another game with a pounding metal soundtrack, you should check out Killing Floor 2. The music combined with wave after wave of zombie mutilation gets my adrenaline pumping every time.
Impending Doom fan also? Killing Floor 2 such underrated game.
@@bustobear5389Impending Doom did music for a game? I love them and I had no idea
Let's not forget Demon Hunter!
They had also a few songs on the OST!
A large chunk of the KF2 soundtrack are Demon Hunter, Impending Doom, and Living Sacrifice instrumentals.
The song Made For War from this game is on my spotify playlist. It's one of the best video game songs I've ever heard and features Bruce Fitzhugh from Living Sacrifice on Vocals and Jeremiah Scott from Demon Hunter on Guitar. And it honestly just sounds like a Living Sacrifice song. I definitely recommend it
Amazing. Every "I wrote a song" video is just absolute fire.
Now that you did DOOM, now ya gotta do his daughter aka we need to get a How to "Metal: Hellsinger" in 30 seconds with a vocalist of your choice that you haven’t did a song with before and that not apart of the game already.
Also love the track and have a great day Nik
The writing songs by bands / artists content has been baller. Some of my fave guitar / music related content lately. Keep up the great work dude i love it.
Will be sick a full album with Instrumental songs
Dude Alex Terrible needs to do a vocal cover over this
Alex Terrible should do the vocal part here😎
Yes.
Perfect timing like damn, I need more I've been on a DOOM metal kick and this is def going on the playlist. Fave new genre🤘
Bruh... that went HARD. You are a mad genius.
I know 0 about music production but I wish after the... imma call it the drop out into the second demon scream I wish it was louder more guttural. It felt like a build up to a boss battle and I wanted a boss battle scream there.
The best thing about Mick's soundtrack is that it's the BEST mixed thing I've ever heard in metal. The drums are fatter, cleaner and punchier than anything I've ever heard like a song isn't supposed to sound this good
“Load of tree” shows the one guitar that has literally 0% wood in it
I’ve been subbed since before 10k and now youre approaching 1M
What a journey. Cheers, brotha
Great stuff my dude. It's always fun to watch you make songs
Why does every single riff you create is pure fire ? 🤘🏻🎸🔥
Im so glad you did this but again great vid I love your content it’s so good
nik i hope you understand how talented you are, not just this song but the other songs that you have created as well like yeesh dude, you know how to make someone headbang thats for sure
ALMOST AT 1 MIL BABY! KEEP MAKING THIS JUICY CONTENT MY GUY
Now get Alex on the track and call it doomed eternally!
This ripped and tore out my spleen, exquisite.
Broooooooo this shit was soooooo sick!!! I have recently been away from playing music as I have recently opened a business. I’m so glad I logged on and watched this video, it has drawn me back to wanting to pick up my guitar and throw down!!!! You have made Mick Gordon proud \m/ !!!!
You fucking killed this my man, also huge congrats to getting almost to a milli! I told you one day you would get there!!!
Behemoth in 30 seconds next maybe? Please? Thanks?
Already caught a whiff of this on last night's stream. Good job 👍
P.s. Whip out your car!
Cranking out these bangers over and over. Freaking great Nik!
Dude, this is the best track i’ve heard in a while. Do an album please:)
you fucking KILLED THAT SHIT!!! instantly added this to my spotify playlist
This track is totally killer!! Mick Gordon approved 💪
So sick! Props to mack daddy Mick G! Fellow Aussie 🤟 Recently been appreciating his work on Prey too❤💀
Between the low tuning and some structures, little bits and pieces here and there reminded me of Meshuggah. Yet another banger in the series
I would love to see Alex Terrible screams on that one
Great job, sounds amazing
Waiting for Alex to get ahold of this instrumental for some kick ass vocals!🔥
i've been living under a rock, your videos are so banger, ANOTHER LIKE, ANOTHER SUBSCRIBER, HORNS UP FROM TIJUANA MEXICO!!!
I love waiting for the song writing process for these it makes it so much more funny
Insane song and production here dude! Something i noticed is your low end is kinda muddy sounding sometimes, at first I was thinking it needed more high passes, but I think its the kick sample is too long for the tempo. So when the kick plays it doesn't have time to die down before the next one starts, causing a constant build up like below 80 hz. I'm sure there are better ways, but you could try using a side chain expander with a slow attack to automate the effect of shortening the sample in parts where the kick is playing really fast to avoid muddy buildup!
There is never enough of Argent Metal. Glad to hear another one
Bro, ya never fail to impress! Sick track!
cant wait till you hit 1 million, man. youve been blowing up recently.
All I am sad about in this one, is that Alex Terrible was not involved :)
After his BFG version, and the fact you had some interactions I hoped so bad he'd take a part in this one [ which I knew you're going to make somehow :P ]
i could imagine mick gordon becoming brick gordon after hearing this
This was tight asf, man. In the future I want to see a how to counterparts video.
Went to the gunrange with my buddy and had him shoot a shotgun for the first time. He said "Damn that feels like a Mick Gordon song" and I he just make so much sense.
6:31 his face had me dead💀
You missed the opportunity to name this "Cheese and Capybaras"
Damn Nik.... You keep making hell bangers. We just need a Dethphonk and Nik Gordon fusion.... Make it happen!!!🔥🔥🔥🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
That was some damn fine work! Kinda bummed I wasn’t there for the stream now lol🤘
This needs to be in the next Doom game.🤞
And now, having just followed Nik's Twitch, I know the Nightwish song is next...
Great job as always. A few ideas I'd love to see you try: Come Clarity era In Flames, The Black Dahlia Murder, Evanescence, Born of Osiris
Hope Nik Nocturnal does Evanescence soon as recently some Metalcore bands have taken influence from them in their sound
Nic... you BEAST of a music genius! Thank you THANK You THANK YOU for all the tunes you spit out!
We need a veil of maya or periphery in 30 seconds!!! Or invent animate, I want more heavyyyyy!!!!
DOOM music goes with everything and Nik' song goes with everything DOOM.
Not even doom music
@@tmw3489 Lol okay
This some crazy Nik Gordon stuff!
That's one of the most exciting breakdown I've ever heard
Doomslayed it. Sick track.
Anyone know what Drum Pack Nik uses? it sounds super sick!
Sick track to Slaughter too! Earned a sub! I hear that Trendkill influence 8 min mark.
Loved the shot at Bethesda at the end. Well placed and well said.
I'm a simple man, I see nik, I do the like
WE NEED ALEX TERRIBLE TO MAKE A VOCAL COVER ABOUT THIS! JUST LIKE WITH BFG DEVISION AND T.O.T.T.F.I.Y.
Well done! Personally I'd love to hear more ear candy like some bass sounds or more atmosphere, u know..
But it's all in all pretty good! 🔥
This is the best thing I saw this week. I watched Oppenheimer yesterday.
This is absolutely sick. But the real question is can we get a how to Meshuggah Please?
I would totally run over a family of 4 with a Honda civic to this!
Waiting for "meshuggah in 30 seconds" day (i even stoped counting)
Appreciate this as a fan of DOOM and metal 🤘
Чувак, это было очень мощно!
Argent Metal needs to be recognized... It's just too good...
Thats not a real thing.
You mean.. ardjent? 💀
@@tmw3489 Yeah I know, but it should be, this video is the proof
@@H8F710 You think this is more djent than argent?
I was waiting for you Nik, and I’m very happy about it
I love this, but I have to plug that Andromida also did a whole album of this, too. So much fun to riff on Daddy Mick.
How long until Alex Terrible does a vocal cover of this?
Love how you chose the one guitar in your collection that contains zero wood to call it “this big thick load of tree right here, 8 string” 😆! Maybe I’m insane, but I had a damn good laugh at the absurdity of it all… Keep on crushing it man! You keep on making silly, fun, and entertaining videos, and have really stepped up your game in the past couple years! Congrats! Your hard work truly has been paying off!
Seen a few videos of yours but I am watching this and I have finally followed your recommendation and subscribed!
Wicked tone! What are the specs of your 8 string guitar? It sounds incredible!
This riff gets my blood pressure up, nicely done 👍
