Telefragged had a few words with Ed Lima - Freelance composer of id Software. Here's a slice of the interview:
"Finger: How did you find the inspiration come up with such a chilling soundtrack?
Ed Lima: When first starting out, I looked at several scary films and games for places to start, games like Resident Evil, Silent Hill and Clive Barker's Undying. But I also checked out films like The Exorcist, The Keep and The Entity to get some different ideas, particularly where cutscenes and boss monster intros were concerned. But after a certain point, I just had to dig deep and really try to capture sounds that would scare me. Also, a huge part of how scary the game's soundscape is comes from HOW sounds are triggered during gameplay, and for that I have to give HUGE props to Christian 'Xian' Antkow, who also did sound work on the game as well as level design work. His mix of sound and design skills made him the perfect guy to implement all of our scary content ingame to greatest effect."
