Photoshop Text with Layer Blending Modes

I opened a new layer and added a purple gradient to the background. I used a giant font to write out Kaboom and used Text Warp to change the shape and arc of the word. Then I moved it to the middle and used effects like inner shadow to make it darker, an outer glow to highlight the words, bevel and emboss to add some texture to the letters, a color overlay to make it brighter. I used a gradient overlay to make the color fade and stroke to highlight around the letter.
