Krichotomy's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Placement]

You've got good ideas and good instruments. The instrument from 01:06 to 01:56 is annoying, sounding like it is screaming inside of my head, in contrast to all the more mellow other instruments playing "in front of" me. I wonder if equalizing out some of the higher frequencies from it would help? Or adding a touch of reverb? Maybe there is too strong of a stereo effect going on? I'm not really sure. The music at around 02:18 is nice.

[The Nightingale Order]

Ahhhhhh! The drums! The slow effective build! The sudden transition to the sweet hammered string instrument! The cool music scale used for the later strings! I love it all! I would love to hear a longer version.

LunyAlex responds:

Thank you very much. Very gpad you like it. I'll probably extend it at some point.

[Felling the Titans]

I could really feel the picture when the low background drums came in, and I think it was neat how they doubled the low brass. I think several of the instruments sound too dry, keeping them from feeling as grand and large as they would otherwise. Great music!

Jay-Turner responds:

Thanks for the review, I'm glad you like it! I'll consider your point, perhaps I'll add a touch of reverb in future to account for the dryness.

[Never Backing Down]

My ears are really enjoying the exciting and bittersweet sound of this music. I like the progression throughout the song, building into the different dynamics. My favorite part might be the transition region from 02:59 to 03:13. The ending is quite nice.

Dylnmatrix responds:

Thanks a lot, man! Appreciate the review!

[Commodore (Aeron Remix)]

Sweet! The lead instrument sounded a little weak in some places, particularly after the key change. I think giving the lead instrument a little more "impact" at 03:44 and afterward might have helped. Something similar to the lead around 01:54 but with more volume and edge.

AeronMusic responds:

Okay thanks!

[Rising Sun cover]

I have difficulty understanding your words (because of your accent and your voice, I think), but the vocals sound very clean and confident. Nice guitar playing. :)

[Electric Tree House]

Fun! I prefer steam-powered treehouses, though. Grin.

BenTibbetts responds:

:-D

[entrinnen]

I can't really criticize this. It sounds great. The overall mix might be a bit quiet?

oxy78414 responds:

thanks dude! i agree, this is a pretty old mix, too. i have a nasty habit of uploading semi-complete WiPs to places and never revisiting them, but this is one that i'm hopefully eventually going to re-record/produce.

glad you liked it though, thanks for the review!

[+-[Faerie Lullaby]+-]

Thank you for gracing Newgrounds with amazing vocals, good lady.

This music is going in my "inspirational stuff" folder.

LadyArsenic responds:

=) My pleasure! I'm really glad you can enjoy it as much as you do. Thank you for listening!

[-+[Serenade of Water]+-]

You are evil. I enjoyed nineteen seconds of bliss, only to find myself so soon dumped right back into reality. Grin.

LadyArsenic responds:

Hee! I'm so glad you could enjoy it that much!
Thank you for listening! <3
