My interpretation of what would be Anarki's (Quake Champions) theme song! I was kind of envisioning how fighting game characters have their tracks that play while I made this. It was a fun/interesting challenge to blend a punk rock personality with the sort of metal/industrial vibe that I feel Quake is known for. I also threw in the descending chord motif that is in the Burial Chamber track from QC, as Anarki was one of my favorite picks on that map due to how easy it is to build speed with the huge space. I also blended the sound of his hoverboard whirring up with a riser effect to give some of the transitions the feeling that he's picking up speed. I also thought it was important to convey a sort of sense of chaotic fun, as Anarki is constantly yelling about how much of a good time he's having as he frags :P

My interpretation of what would be Ranger's (Quake Champions) theme song! I was kind of envisioning how fighting game characters have their tracks that play while I made this. With Ranger originating from Quake 1, I knew it's soundtrack needed a heavy presence in this one. I threw in references to the tracks Quake Theme, Aftermath, Hall of Souls, and Life. Going with the sort of Gothic theme that Q1 had, throwing in a little pipe organ would hurt either as the Volkerh mapset utilizes it as well. 

A good chunk of the Q1 OST is in the key of D, and deviating from that ended up sound wrong, so in order to get my guitars as low as I wanted them to... I didn't use them. The heavy parts are actually a bass guitar using electric guitar processing. In my mind, this track is my impression of Sonic Mayhem and Mick Gordon interpreting Trent Reznor's classic Quake OST.

Ranger has a tragic story, as he was ripped from his family and tossed into the nightmarish world of Quake from which he can't seem to awaken. I wanted to reflect this in the somber tone of the chorus in this track (and inadvertently ended up giving a subtle nod to the Max Payne theme). Part of me wanted this song to end on a looping fade out to sort of reflect him being trapped in hell.
