Vertexguy`s Awesome New Grabbag Cover
Category: Duke Nukem
by Yatta, on Sat Jun 25 2011, 10:00PMHey all,
I was originally going to release this along with a video, but since I'm running into more delays on that, I figured I'd get this out there so you didn't have to wait any longer.
At long last I give you my Duke Nukem Jam HD.
I will come back and modify this post when my video is done to go along with it. (maybe a few weeks) I might also write up a little back story to all the trials and tribulations this song has taken me through over the years to get to where it is now. It was not a smooth journey by any stretch of the imagination and required a huge amount of sacrifice and dedication on my end to achieve! While there are still little nuances I'd like to be able to tweak, I had to call it good, or much like DNF, it may have been delayed even longer. This song represents overcoming an enormous hurdle in audio production for me. I hope you can clearly hear the difference when reflecting back at the original release from 2005. I also hope it sounds comparable in production quality to the famed Megadeth version, and of course the new iterations of Grab Bag from Duke Nukem Forever.
Again the intent of this release was to improve the original remix, not to rewrite it from scratch. That said, there are certainly lots of new additions and tweaks to this version, including live bass, drums, synth, and orchestra parts. I think these additions helped to make it an even more powerful composition.
I'd like to thank each and every one of my fans who have been long awaiting this release. You have been the primary inspiration and driving force over the years that made this possible. I hope you all like it! Enjoy!
