Davester2296 B-Sides | Soldiering On | Wolfenstein Rising OST [MIDI] @Davester2296-B | Uploaded April 2020 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Since I've been putting up songs that I've written for other projects, I figured I might as well start uploading stuff from this project too. The first track from this project is actually "The Call of War", back when the project was still using the "Castle Wolfenstein Chronicles" title. Since then the name's gone through a couple of changes.

This project is supposed to act as a direct-sequel to Wolf3D, set 10 years after the war. Split into three episodes, each episode would take inspiration from the following: Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Arctic Wolf, and Astrostein. Episode 1 taking place in Germany (I think?), Episode 2 taking place in the Arctic at a secret rocket base. Then finally Episode 3 (Lunar Legacy) would take place on a Nazi moon base.

The plot basically sees a surprise blitzkrieg by the (long thought dead) Nazi party. Special robots and mechs (METAL GEERUH) are used to assist their infantry forces in occupying key strategic locations. With the world entering its darkest hour, our hero, BJ, is called back into service by the Office of Secret Actions (OSA).

I've also suggested to Raees about working in implications of these moon nazis having tech and research that would lead to a proto-UAC of sorts. Though there's still a lot that could be subject to change. Needless to say though, I'm very on board with whatever direction he decides to take this megawad!


Now as for this particular track. I was actually stuck and couldn't think of a theme for a level at the time. So I looked back at what I liked about "The Call of War" and then I added on to an idea that took slight inspiration from Wolf3D's "Enemy around the corner". I always imagined this track making for a good end-of-episode theme.

The soundtrack will be a mix of orchestral, electronic (mainly aimed at those moon base levels), and wolf3D-inspired tracks. There will also be a handful of Wolf3D remixes thrown into the bunch as well.

Anyways, hope you all enjoy! I'll be uploading tracks every day since I've got quite a few MIDIs written for this project (14 tracks, counting this track and "Call of War"). I'll also be putting these up in the order that I had composed them. Once these 14 are all up, I'll go put up a "Volume 1" video over on the covers channel. ~DAR
