To celebrate the recent release of Mortal Kombat 11<\/em>, we decided to recreate the theme song from the game’s film counterpart.<\/h1>\n

The original song, \u201cTechno Syndrome,\u201d<\/a> was composed by an electronic music duo known as The Immortals and appears in the 25-year-old soundtrack, Mortal Kombat: The Album<\/em>. The track is at 134 BPM and is in the key of A minor, also borrowing from the Phrygian mode.<\/a><\/p>\n

For this recreation, we used the Prophet V3 for the basses and CMI V from Arturia\u2019s V Collection<\/a> for the main melody. There are also a few instances of Serum<\/a> in the project as well.<\/p>\n

Follow along with our video tutorial, where we walk through how we produced our recreation of the Mortal Kombat <\/em>theme step-by-step:<\/p>\n
