==Career== ===Video games=== Gordon began his musical career as a jazz/blues guitarist in his teens.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2C2bpMe7nh8|title=Mick Gordon Interview - DOOM Eternal Composer|date=28 November 2019 |via=[[YouTube]]|access-date=30 April 2021|archive-date=1 February 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210201191120/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2C2bpMe7nh8|url-status=live}}</ref> He first began to work as a sound designer with [[Pandemic Studios]], where he contributed additional sound design for ''[[Destroy All Humans! 2]]''. In 2013, he scored the first season of the fighting video game, ''[[Killer Instinct (2013 video game)|Killer Instinct]]'', a reboot of the [[Killer Instinct (1994 video game)|original 1994 title]]. The following year, Gordon scored the second season of ''Killer Instinct'' and the action-adventure first-person shooter ''[[Wolfenstein: The New Order]]'' (developed by [[MachineGames]]). He returned to the ''Wolfenstein'' series in 2015 to compose the score for ''[[Wolfenstein: The Old Blood]],'' a prequel to ''[[Wolfenstein: The New Order]].''

In 2016, Gordon completed [[Music of Doom (2016)|the score]] for the science fiction first-person shooter, ''[[Doom (2016 video game)|Doom]]'', a soft reboot of the franchise, developed by [[id Software]].

In 2017, Gordon completed the score for the horror first-person shooter, ''[[Prey (2017 video game)|Prey]]'', developed by [[Arkane Studios]]. He also worked alongside [[Martin Stig Andersen]] to again return to the ''Wolfenstein'' series, scoring ''[[Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus]]'', developed by [[MachineGames]].

In 2020, Gordon completed the score of ''[[Doom Eternal]]''; while the music for the game was once again well-received, circumstances around the soundtrack release led to [[Doom Eternal#Soundtrack dispute|a public falling out between Gordon and id Software]] and a parting of ways.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.gamespot.com/articles/doom-eternal-composer-distances-himself-from-the-n/1100-6476272/|title=Doom Eternal Composer Distances Himself From The Newly Released Soundtrack|access-date=23 June 2020|archive-date=26 June 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200626162956/https://www.gamespot.com/articles/doom-eternal-composer-distances-himself-from-the-n/1100-6476272/|url-status=live}}</ref> Both sides posted open letters alleging wrongdoing.<ref>{{cite news|last=Valentine|first=Rebekah|title=Doom Eternal Composer Alleges Unpaid Wages and Abuse in Lengthy Soundtrack Controversy Response|url=https://www.ign.com/articles/doom-eternal-composer-alleges-unpaid-wages-and-abuse-in-lengthy-soundtrack-controversy-response|access-date=18 November 2022|website=[[IGN]]|date=9 November 2022|archive-date=10 November 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221110225947/https://www.ign.com/articles/doom-eternal-composer-alleges-unpaid-wages-and-abuse-in-lengthy-soundtrack-controversy-response|url-status=live}}</ref>

===Production work=== On 23 June 2020 British rock band [[Bring Me the Horizon]] announced they would be working with Gordon on their upcoming release.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDYiw1v0P98|title=10BMTHS2-mick gordon-.mp4|date=23 June 2020 |via=[[YouTube]]|access-date=18 November 2022|archive-date=13 November 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221113181615/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDYiw1v0P98|url-status=live}}</ref> Vocalist [[Oliver Sykes]] discusses how he fell in love with the ''Doom Eternal'' soundtrack during quarantine. Being heavily inspired by Gordon's work, the band decided to reach out to him and offer a collaboration. The resulting work, titled "[[Parasite Eve (song)|Parasite Eve]]", was released on 25 June alongside an accompanying music video.<ref>{{cite web|last=Trendell|first=Andrew|title=Bring Me The Horizon tell us about their new 'survival horror song' 'Parasite Eve' and ambitious 'Post Human' project|url=https://www.nme.com/news/music/bring-me-the-horizon-parasite-eve-post-human-new-album-oli-sykes-interview-2694847|website=NME|date=25 June 2020 |accessdate=18 November 2022|archive-date=28 June 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200628070525/https://www.nme.com/news/music/bring-me-the-horizon-parasite-eve-post-human-new-album-oli-sykes-interview-2694847|url-status=live}}</ref> The collaboration then expanded into the commercial release, ''[[Post Human: Survival Horror]]'', released on 30 October 2020.

Gordon produced the song "Paralyze" with industrial metal band [[3Teeth]] in 2021. On 3rd May 2023 3Teeth released "Merchant of the Void", and on 31st May released "Slum Planet" again collaborating with Gordon.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.kerrang.com/3teeth-team-up-with-doom-composer-mick-gordon-for-new-music/|title=3TEETH team up with DOOM composer Mick Gordon for new music |first=Emily|last=Carter|date=3 May 2023|accessdate=13 May 2023|work=[[Kerrang]]}}</ref>

==Musical style and inspiration== According to Gordon's official website, he "utilises a broad range of modern musical sound design and traditional composition techniques in order to be unconstrained by any singular genre," and that it is "inspired by the connection between the audience and the experience."<ref name="mickgordon">{{cite web|title=About – Mick Gordon|url=http://mick-gordon.com/about/|website=MICK GORDON|accessdate=4 November 2016|archive-date=19 July 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190719114614/https://mick-gordon.com/about|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Gordon's work "considers the role of music as a translation of the world in which it exists rather than a simple accompaniment."<ref name="mickgordon" />
