Matthew's Mixes Episode 2 is a collection of music compiled specifically for the original Doom.  The music replaced all music on Episode 2:  The Shores of Hell.  Also, three replacements for the title, intermission, and victory screens.  The zMatthewMixesEp2.pk3 was compiled to be used with the Doomsday Engine port.  However, it can be played under the Zandronum port as well.  Simply, with the port of your choice, create a shortcut for the .exe port and type "-file zMatthewMixesEp2.pk3"---example shortcut for Zandronum is "zandronum.exe -file zMatthewMixesEp2.pk3" (this work if you place the .pk3 under the same directory as the port .exe of course).

All music present in this .pk3 was composed and performed by Guy Matthew Babin, except Movement 5 which was performed by the computer.  The music has a soundtrack feel for it.  They were carefully selected for Doom playing.  If you want to know about the composer, you can view his webpage at www.babins.org/Guy.  Some selections were taken from the composer's independent albums, which can be ordered at CDBaby, called "Thematic Elements" and "Gothic Elements".  Other selections are appearing here for the first time.  Here all the list of the music:
