Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour is Out!

Posted on 2016-10-12 Written by D. Lee Jackson

dn3d20awt_250x444It’s finally here! The release of Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour happened as scheduled, on Tuesday, October 11th. With it came an entirely new level, “Alien World Order,” and new music from yours truly to accompany it.

I’ve been excited about the release, but I’ve also been a little anxious about it. I put a lot of effort into the music when I wrote it several months ago, especially considering the lousy state of health I’ve had to deal with this year. There’s also been a lot of lead-up publicity ahead of the game’s release. All of this had me wondering how I’d handle it if the music got bad reviews. Thankfully, that hasn’t happened yet—at least, not that I’ve been able to see. The reviews so far have been way above my expectations.

If you get a chance, please grab a copy and let me know what you think about the music. All of the music is available in Ogg format within one of the game’s directories, so you can listen to the tracks outside the game (without looping, which only happens if you play it in the game). See if you can find some of the musical Easter eggs that I hid in the melodies and backing lines. (One hint: there’s a drum corps drumline used in a couple of songs.)

Please use the Contact page and let me know your opinions about the music. Thank you for reading—and for listening!

New Duke Nukem Music

Posted on 2016-09-03 Written by D. Lee Jackson

dnf_symbol_384The news is finally out about the Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour release, scheduled for October 11th, 2016. The classic is back for play on platforms and Windows 10. But that’s not all—there’s an all-new Episode Five, done with brand new music by yours truly!

I spent a bit of time earlier this year working with Gearbox Software to create new tracks for the Episode Five levels. I had a blast writing and recording them, and had just as much of a blast working with Gearbox on the project. I can’t say too much about the music until the release date, but I can say it’s all digitally mastered this time around. I hope you’ll grab a copy and give it a listen once it’s released!
