Dhoom was the first action film produced by Yash Raj Films since Yash Chopra's Vijay. The film revolves around a gang of robbers on motorbikes, led by Kabir (John Abraham), who carry out robberies in Mumbai, while a cop Jai Dixit (Abhishek Bachchan) and a motorbike dealer Ali Akbar Fateh Khan (Uday Chopra) are assigned to stop Kabir and his gang.

Kabir and his motorcycle gang carry out robberies in Banks and other public places in Mumbai, which causing chaos to the police. ACP Jai Dixit is assigned to investigate the case. Jai seeks the help of Ali Akbar Fateh Khan, a local bike dealer and racer, and creates a plan to trap the gang, but to no avail. Kabir taunts Jai, claiming that he cannot catch him even if he was right in front of him. Kabir is proven correct and Jai's inability causes him to part ways with Ali.

Kabir lures Ali into his gang as a substitute for Rohit, a member of Kabir's gang who was killed by Jai. Ali falls in love with Sheena, another member in the gang. The gang plan their next and final heist in Goa before parting ways. Kabir and his gang robs a casino on New Year's Eve, but Kabir realizes that Jai led him into a trap. It is revealed that Ali was actually working with Jai, and a fight ensues.

Kabir manages to escape and goes back to the gang's truck, where Ali has kept Sheena hostage. Kabir beats up Ali for his betrayal, but Jai arrives and saves Ali. Kabir and his gang, except Sheena, escape with Jai and Ali chasing after them. Jai and Ali eliminate the gang and corner Kabir. Rather than letting Jai arrest him, Kabir kills himself by riding his bike over the edge of a cliff. Later, Jai and Ali argue with each other in a friendly way.

Rajesh Karkera of Rediff.com said that "Dhoom does have a few loopholes but the film's fast-paced energy is more than enough to ensure your eyes don't stir from the screen for two-and-a-half hours", on the performance side, Chopra "steals the show", Bachchan is "impressive as the cool and confident cop. Abraham stalks though his role with ease. Deol and Sen only need to look beautiful in their limited presence in this sweat 'n' leather flick".[10] Chitra Mahesh from The Hindu said that the film takes the genre of The Fast and the Furious, Ocean's Eleven and similar others, and wrote that "the actions scenes are extremely well done with zooms and pacy editing, while the music is more raucous than melodious". Appreciating the acting, she said, "Chopra is delightful. Bachchan as Jai does his role with style and grit and is proving to be a wonderful actor. Abraham looks terrific and suits the role of the mean-but-savvy thief".[11]

Taran Adarsh of IndiaFM rated 1.5 out of 5, and said: "Dhoom has gloss, but no substance. Dhoom has style, but no script. Dhoom has thrills in abundance, but the outcome is least exciting. In short, Dhoom ranks amongst YRF's weakest films" and that the film relies "too heavily on thrills", the bike chase in the story are "far more interesting than the story itself. In fact, all you remember at the end of the show are some expertly-executed chases [Allan Amin], not the drama"; the film also seems to take inspirations from The Fast and The Furious and Biker Boyz.[15] Calling Dhoom a "testosterone-overdose", Anupama Chopra of India Today wrote that "Dhoom is adolescent heaven-fast bikes, hot babes, tons of kick-ass action with no-strings-attached ... But there are lots of trendy split screenshots of shiny bikes burning rubber and fast-paced stunts involving boats and trucks. Not to mention sexy songs with water hoses. Acting isn't the point here either. The performances are pure posture."[16]

As for Doom 2, I do have a nostalgia for them but most of the tunes are fairly low-key/underwhelming. The music for Icon of Sun however is as good as anything Bobby Prince ever produced which funnily enough was made during the Doom 1 development cycle.

Map18 - This song gives off a sad vibe, as if something is lost. Perfect for Maps 18 and 27, especially since 27 is entering deep hell, and the song is a perfect remainder that all that is not pain and suffering is lost.

Map28 - This song is a perfect continuation to Map27. It's sorta like a Doom 2 version of E1M8 in the sense that a horror is about to occur. And since The Spirit World is probably the most "hellish" level in the game, it's a perfect track for this level.

Map30 - A perfect spooky song, although I liked Alien Vendetta's Point Dreadful a lot better. There aren't too many of these, but a non-IOS level with monster spawners would be a really good fit for this song!

i love Doom 1's soundtrack, but i'm always gonna be partial to 2. i just love the dreamlike atmospheric blues type sound Bobby Prince created, and i couldn't imagine any other midis being used for Doom 2's maps.

Doom 1's soundtrack is of course more iconic, I think more care was put into it. Less songs were composed specifically for Doom 2, the rest were scraps cut out of Doom 1, some of them even being cover placeholder songs that probably shouldn't have been in there legality-wise. People often downplay Bobby Prince's achievements because of this, but a lot of other games back then did this too, it's just that they were used as placeholders and cut before release, and it seems that was the intent for Doom as well but some of them ended up making it anyway. Today, I think I love both soundtracks equally (along with TNT's soundtrack) but I remember when I was younger (when I mainly used to play Doom 1 over the other games) thinking that Doom 2's soundtrack was a bit weird and unfitting for the game compared to Doom 1's soundtrack (though "Suspense" from Doom 1 gave me the same feeling, I always thought it sounded silly, but these days I can't really feel that anymore, funny how our minds change over time like that).

While we're on the topic, something that always used to bug me was that in the SC-55/Microsoft Wavetable version of "Demons on the Prey", at about 1 minute 35 seconds in is what sounds like an old DVD player spinning up. I know it's just the bird ambience instrument or whatever being pitch bended but it always sounded like an old CD or DVD-ROM drive to me and I still find it hilarious. I hope I'm not the only one who has thought this.

Anyway, as for me, I think Doom 1 has the better soundtrack; Doom 2 is good too, but I do not feel like the game uses its soundtrack as well as its predecessor. For example, "The Healer Stalks" in itself is a fine track, but it sounds too much like muzak and it really does not fit the setting and the mood of the levels it is assigned to.

Doom 1. E1M9, E3M1, Intermission, E1M8, E3M2 and that sinister End Game song. Doom 2 has a lot of great tracks but Doom 1's were always a bit more memorable to me. Hell, Intermission was the first guitar riff I ever learned.

Well to be honest i don't really have a favorite among Doom 1 and Doom 2. Since joining back in 2020, i've been spoiled and exposed to great community midis. But if i had to choose one, it would be Doom 1 midis.

Edit: I know when i do maps i like to use community midis because it give the composers a shout out and i really love there music they make. If i can't choose or i'm lazy i'll use stock Doom 1 and/or Doom 2 midis like a remix tape.

While I do think Doom 1's music is better than Doom 2's, I don't think either are as good as they are made out to be. In fact, music might be the weakest part of Classic Doom games. Bobby Prince's later work, such as in Duke3D and especially in Demonstar (the shmup made by same company that made Raptor: Call of the Shadows) are better than that of Doom.

For me, easily Doom I's soundtrack. There are hardly any duds (E3M8 perhaps?), whereas Doom II's soundtrack is littered with unmemorable tracks (and a few killer ones, fortunately, like indeed Into Sandy's City). TNT has a few good ones (The Wormhole map music! Is it Death's Bells?), but in total I find it rather unmemorable as well.

that's an easy decision to make: doom 1. there's definitely some meh tracks in there, but overall, each song is honestly quite fantastic and incredibly memorable. meanwhile, doom 2 has map09 and 30, and...that's about it for songs that i find myself enjoying.

I kinda like the utter simplicity of Wolf3D and Doom's MIDIs in a way though, they're relatively barebones and I find that makes them work incredibly well in many different map contexts, and I do have a certain appreciation for music that is composed to be "background music" that isn't intrusive/doesn't have a whole lot going on, but still manages to be catchy and sound generally good.

We also have a unique method of teaching in which young children (4-6 years) accompany their parents who learn Djembe at Trk DHOOM. The children play around while listening to the parents play. These children then naturally start playing Djembe.

For girls and boys above the ages of 8 years, there are separate music classes. For women who like to sing but did not get time to learn music before, there are special classes. They are taught songs that they would like to sing. We arrange sessions for analyzing music videos and also attend music concerts together. This helps learning listening to good music.

This song also has a strong one-And two-And three-And Four which just highlights really dumb-And dumb-And dumb-And dumb obvious rhythms that beat into my skull. I feel like I am counting time for my kids just starting music lessons few years back.

enjoyed most of their previous titles and this one is a great one too. they also always have pretty cool bsides (mirror mirror almost sounds like it was the title track and then switched to a bside bc it reminds of their previous cbs).

Doom metal is a slow style of metal music, often focused on heavy, downtuned guitars. The tempos are slow and the music tends to have a bleak atmosphere. The vocals can range from clean, operatic vocals to death metal growls or other extreme sounds. Black Sabbath is considered the first metal band, as well as the first doom metal band.
