Galena has the symbol of the Serpent Riders from Heretic and Hexen on her armor, but her lore claims she worships Volkerh, one of the Elder Gods. Maybe this means that the three Serpent Riders are all associated with Volkerh. They might even be his sons.
@@mcelfy1006 I know Rise of the Triad and Hexen/Heretic are in the same canon, and Rise of the Triad started development as a Wolfenstein sequel so it's possible?
I always think that Galena comes from the world of Heretic/Hexen because the serpent rider symbol, but his lore is very open to interpretation. Amazing music!
that symphonic black metal feel though. oooOOOFF that hit hard and sounds good. For the record, if you make a package on bandcamp of these tracks with GRABBAG included, i'd drop a few green pesto's on the tracks.
Fishfins I appreciate it, but I don't believe I could sell those tracks if I wanted to as I don't own the licenses. Grabbag lossless is available free in the QCDE covers zip and these tracks I'll put out lossless for free as well
Changing the names would be a partial solution but I'm planning on putting in more callback parts in future songs, which I don't have the license to sell unfortunately. Doing this for the community anyhow :P
Half of my enjoyment is from reading your descriptions, the way you go in depth about the process of making these songs fascinates me, I just wish Id would hire you.
I found out about Michael Markie thanks to the QC:DE and only later I found out that he and Hulshult had made a soundtrack of the original QC. Thank you dude for these tracks, they create a great atmosphere of these games.
Another awesome track. I love the Nine Inch Nails influences. It picks up right where the last track ended... Perhaps they will transition on the album? Nine Inch Nails frequently end abruptly as well.
I was looking earlier for another embedded image in the spectogram for this song as it has sections at the beginning and end that sound like they might have had something but I didn't find anything. After For The Makron though, it makes me wonder about further hints...
Gotta say it's kinda remind me of some of Killer Instinct themes, like something here's from Aganos' theme. But that means you're on the same level with Mick Gordon in my eyes (: Seriously, brilliant song!
Damn. These are all like, a combination of all the best things about Trent's Q1 soundtrack, Sonic Mayhem's Q2 soundtrack, and Mick Gordan's DOOM 2016 soundtrack. Brav-the-fuck-o
Hmm. My three guesses for the next Champion theme are: 1) Ranger 2) Sorlag 3) Visor I wont ask for any kind of confirmation, but I do wonder how close I got.
Man, this is seriously good! I've been listening to this one track for days, and I can't have enough of it. All the other tracks are as good as well. I went into Corrupted Keep with this track, and man, what an experience... besides I totally missed every audio cue, it was still amazing. Send you all my love from Argentina, from a quaker to another quaker. Thank you, thank you very much, sir. Can't wait for more! I'd really love to hear Keel's track, it is one of my favs...
You know man, when i ages ago dropped you some critique because of the namesake of the tracks, now i think you have really done a big one, gj man, loved for the makron, can i ask more of such stuff?
This gives me the vibes of Septicflesh + Meshuggah. Amazing music man! It would be amazing if this was on Spotify so I could have it on repeat. Also, is there a tablature sheet for this song available to share?
These need to be unlockable tracks in game instead of the stupid lore scrolls lol. Galena is my 4th favorite champ after Deathknight Doomguy and Sorlag
I would love it if the lore scrolls once unlocked fully or at intervals of 2 would have a VA read over it and play music like this with imagery for the champion.
Is Galena a Death Knight from Quake 1? If she is and if the original Quake spirit lives in Champions, will there be more comebacks from the ol Elder Beast Realms?
This sounds better than the Hexen series actually was, and sounds as good as it SHOULD have been. (Yes, I know this is QC - but Galena is drawn from Hexen 2 designs)
Hey man. Been looking around for unseen talent. You should really pursue a beefy career in gaming soundtracks if it's your passion, which I assume it is? Only passion would sound so professional.
you should come back ;) I think the reasoning is that the Strogg are an alien cyborg hive-mind warrior race, conquering and assimilating all they fight (except humanity), while visor is just a human (russian government) experiment to design super soldiers
Morpheus4444 I thought it was part bio and part machine, and the ones we've seen are just the earth invasion forces (they assimilate whatever intelligent life there is) Is it just humans?
Wait.......this isn't an official track? Or is it and I'm just misunderstanding what this is exactly? Dude if this isn't an official track and they haven't HIRED your ass by now then wtf is wrong with those guys?! Like, they need to hire you for work on the Doom franchise now that Mr. Gordon is out. 0_0
THESE ARE ALL SO GOOD WTF

I thought it was logo of wolfenstein,looks quite similar,maybe there’s some sort of connection?
@@mcelfy1006 I know Rise of the Triad and Hexen/Heretic are in the same canon, and Rise of the Triad started development as a Wolfenstein sequel so it's possible?
This honestly feel like a Sister of Battle theme (high gothic-esque, holy chanting, pounding metal) and i love it and you can't convince me otherwise.
Quake champions should've had short campaign mode where we get to play all the characters with their own storylines.
Holy shit that is a really good idea
This idea is made of gold, dude
There was a rumor that id software might make a quake remake soooo hopefully they do
Well that ascended quite satisfyingly. Well done!
cacohat
I'm a simple man. I see a new Markie tune, I click dat shit fast as fuck, enjoy it from start to finish, and I click like.
This gets me excited for what Death Knight's could sound like.
Did it deliver for you?
@@rorya01ok37 Very much so
Fucking awesome
I always think that Galena comes from the world of Heretic/Hexen because the serpent rider symbol, but his lore is very open to interpretation.
Amazing music!
Onox792 its a her, not a him. You can also see her boobs, man.
@@Morpheus-sh1bc I thought the name was enough to tell it was a woman. but oh well.
@@KLamki1 the name, character model and lore in the main menu all show pretty clearly that she's a woman.
Incredible music! ... You have some serious talent. ❤️
3:44
Oh come onnn, this part is only played once, I love it so much ಥ‿ಥ
Excellent work.Thank you.
THE GODS SMILE UPON YOU. >:D
I definitely got the Gojira vibes in several spots.
Wondefrul track, man!
That sudden cut to that melodic guitar solo and how it builds back up to the ripping is pure gold baby, this is awesome!
Another fantastic one Markie
I NEED MORE MUSIC LIKE THIS TRACK
I just found this today, and yes.. this is amazing asf.. 3:15 just hits so good
It's so late yet I'm still going to listen to this
that symphonic black metal feel though. oooOOOFF that hit hard and sounds good.

Yep, the piano notes in Makron spell out G A _ E _ A
Put that clue in for fun to see if anyone would catch it :P

There's one but it's so incredibly vague that it's more in there for me, no way anyone will guess it based off the hint.
Gotta say it's kinda remind me of some of Killer Instinct themes, like something here's from Aganos' theme.
But that means you're on the same level with Mick Gordon in my eyes (:

I WAS LOOKING FOR MUSIC LIKE THIS GOD BLESS YOU
Ok, four minutes in and I think I can safely say this is easily your best track. 💪😎💪
TheGariest I still liked For The Makron as my favourite one. This is excellent too btw.
Morpheus4444 That's understandable, I've listened to that one countless times now lel
TheGariest I know the feeling lel, i have done that too.
👌👀

Ranger is already correct :D

This is fantastic Markie, yet again. Also any track by Deathcode Society reminds me of Galena too.
You know man, when i ages ago dropped you some critique because of the namesake of the tracks, now i think you have really done a big one, gj man, loved for the makron, can i ask more of such stuff?
Johnnymode ! For the makron was truly amazing.
Markie I've just found you today man... and I gotta say THOSE MUSICS ARE ON FIRE!!! SO SICK!! KEEP IT UP BUDDY! 10/10!!
my god, this is a masterpiece!
Will you make for every champion? Keep up the good work
Really cool! all you do is really dope!
awesome. first time i hear it on PGL 2018
Another awesome theme :D
BE HEALED IN THE POWER OF THE ANCIENTS!!! Good overall work with all characters music, pal! :D
Gave me a downward spiral vibe at the beginning. Great tune!
still by far the best one of your champions theme songs
Need industrial meshuggah-esque theme for Clutch
Galena to Quake Champions: Do not Die yet!
This gives me the vibes of Septicflesh + Meshuggah. Amazing music man! It would be amazing if this was on Spotify so I could have it on repeat. Also, is there a tablature sheet for this song available to share?
Very much Septic Flesh sounding. Absolutely epic.
Definitely putting this on my chest day playlist. This shit GO hard !
Goood.
This is Killer Instinct as fuck. I love it.
galena in her acolyte outfit version of the background would be holy amazing
@4:57 it cuts off suddenly, is that intended?
Otherwise, absolutely fantastic song.
Yes it is!
The parts that aren't just metal but transcend genres are where things really shine. The final portion with guitars and orchestral melody is amazing.
Absolutely incredible!
That Trent flavor of excellence. The religion would be proud
Man, every one of these is perfect
Lit AF! 🔥🔥🔥 keep up
definitely my favorite track so far !
all these songs are fucking insane, i love everything you do bro holy fuck
Random thought: wouldn't it make more sense thematically for Galena to have a nailgun in her portrait?
A BigRedBall almost every character has a machine gun. Although, some have the rocket launcher, but thats all.
Actually, Galena has lightning gun in the game.
@@Morpheus-sh1bc Doom has Shotgun ingame ^^
fantastic !!!
fucking hell... Bethesda just FUCKING HIRE THIS GUY!
love your work man! keep it up! Looking out for more :)
Damn ! Need those tabs ! Want to start back learning guitar and this is really motivating !
AMAZING WORK MAN!
It`s sounds like mix of modern metal and dimmu borgir from late 90`s. Mix of best parts
These need to be unlockable tracks in game instead of the stupid lore scrolls lol.
Galena is my 4th favorite champ after Deathknight Doomguy and Sorlag
I would love it if the lore scrolls once unlocked fully or at intervals of 2 would have a VA read over it and play music like this with imagery for the champion.
@@RazeAndJadith That would be great but the issue I have is that lore scrolls only drop at the end of matches and barely drop in the first place.
Let the 300th like be mine :) Awesome music!
Waifu run vids led me here. AND I DIG IT AS WELL.
this seriously sounds like you have the potential to be a Mick Gordon. not even joking.
Is Galena a Death Knight from Quake 1? If she is and if the original Quake spirit lives in Champions, will there be more comebacks from the ol Elder Beast Realms?
She is not. However the Q1 Death Knight will be a playable champion soon judging by the teasers.
No, she seems to be from the Heretic/Hexen universe, judging by the Serpent Riders symbol on her armor.
great theme
"Markie has the QUAD!"
has the BFG, repeat, Markie has the BFG
oh man this one's good
Probably a little late to comment but the beginning part of this track kind of reminds me of the downward spiral by Nine Inch Nails.
Awesome👍👏
This sounds better than the Hexen series actually was, and sounds as good as it SHOULD have been. (Yes, I know this is QC - but Galena is drawn from Hexen 2 designs)
will you ever release your stuff on Spotify? It's killing me that I can't listen to it while I'm out at work.
Fantastic. How about Doomguy next ? I mean, something original, i wanna hear something new besides DOOM's soundtrack.
It would be nice to hear something for Doom that isn't just E1M1 again
Hell Walker could be a good choice.
Got you covered fam.
th-cam.com/video/kjIVkl34Vig/w-d-xo.html
Yeah I'd like to see a good mix of Bobby Prince, Mick Gordon and Nine Inch Nails
@@RoachDoggJR4200 Everyone knows Into Sandy's City is the superior DOS Doom song anyway
4:25 Best part
My fav champ!
These are great for BGM while playing Mordhau and go beserk long enough surviving xD
You will know the peace of the Gods by force! ...If needed.
nice touch.. "impressive"
Dude this is fantastic. Mind if I use some of your songs with credit for edits in the future?
Go for it
Interesting characters and awesome music. I would even dared to try it if it wasnt Quake- i will get my ass mauled by veterans 0-20.

Hey man. Been looking around for unseen talent. You should really pursue a beefy career in gaming soundtracks if it's your passion, which I assume it is? Only passion would sound so professional.
Good job on the whole series. Do you have tabs or plan to release them anytime soon ? ;)
3:45 I guess andrew hulshult isn't the only metal god. Markie, keep it up and you'll give him a run for his money (if you don't beat him)
D E U S
V U L T
ave Galena
them Doom vibes
It sounds like doom eternal soundtrack and the demon souls main menu theme had a malicious and brutal love child
BAD FUCKIN ASS!!!!
augmented 2 when?
Can you upload your songs to Spotify? ♥
+1
Ayo their armor looks kinda like sentinel designed from doom eternal
I believe she's meant to be a wink wink nudge nudge homage to the Heretic/Hexen franchise.
How did they not hire you yet???
Yo btw is Visor a Strogg ? He sure looks like one.
Gamma Bravo Alright, thanks bro. I forgot that since i played QC a long while ago.
you should come back ;) I think the reasoning is that the Strogg are an alien cyborg hive-mind warrior race, conquering and assimilating all they fight (except humanity), while visor is just a human (russian government) experiment to design super soldiers
King of Pigs Thanks man, but QC is just too much for me. Its very stressful even that i played quake live for some time.
King of Pigs Also Stroggs are part-human part-robot.
Morpheus4444 I thought it was part bio and part machine, and the ones we've seen are just the earth invasion forces (they assimilate whatever intelligent life there is)
Is it just humans?
Wait.......this isn't an official track? Or is it and I'm just misunderstanding what this is exactly?
