MonkeyV's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Backlash - Sunrise]

Nice

It's got kind of a Beatles feel. Like the rest of the songs, I like it overall. Though I'm not sure if that's just some delay, but there seems to be some syncing problems again. Not much though. It sounds pretty good.

[Traffic on Fire]

hmm

Doesn't sound terrible.
My advice is to make it longer, and to have this part lead into a much quieter part with a similar melody.

Arcantium responds:

Thanks for the idea! Ill keep it in mind when I continue this track. Its only short because its incomplete. This is just the main melodic sequence from what I hope to make the middle of the track.

[[KgZ] You Can't Stop Me!]

nice

I like how fast and energetic it is. I could like... roller disco to this.
Yeah I can totally see it working in a game.

One thing I think it needed more of was percussion. Just louder and more of it would have been better I think.

[Multicolour Octopus Ink..]

oooOOoooOOoooOoooo

I'm more into the more vocal stuff like "Sitting" and "Back to the Front", but I'm starting to enjoy this ambient stuff, too.
I like the electronic-sounding effects you put in, like at 2:20. Wish there were a few more of them.
The guitar sounds awesome. It's very harp-like with the plucking. Have you ever thought of investing in buying a harp?

Overall it's pretty good, but I guess ambient stuff, as a whole, just doesn't have enough solid substance for me.
In general, though, I'll always love your music; it has influenced my own music quite a bit.

[videogame sample]

nice

I really the fast notes in the background. I also like how the lead sounds kind of like a continuum.
It's energetic, but it's got melancholic undertones at the same time, which is something I really like in music. =)

Overall I think it could work well in the credits to a video game.

[Backlash - Solar Flare]

Woo Prog Rock =D

Personally I like Blue Moon better.
Again, you're all very good and I like the sounds.
And also, again, the main problem is all the distortion on the guitar.
Keep it up, and if you can, upload more 'cuz I really like it.

NoirTiger responds:

there's actually only two more. Thanks for the feedback.

[Backlash - Blue Moon]

Woo prog rock =D

Most of it sounds really good.
I think I would even download it... if you were to get rid of some of the distortion on that guitar.
There's just way too much static going on, but otherwise I really like this. Especially the keyboards.

NoirTiger responds:

Sorry I'm not able to get rid of the distortion. it was already burned for me when I got it.

[Fritz and the Crow]

asdf

Pretty good, but a tad repetitive.
Also, that part at the end doesn't really work, unless that's leading into the next part or something.

ThundershockNow responds:

Thanks for the input, it's transitioning into the next part of the project, it'll be leading into the next scene.

[Four Walls]

Overall pretty good

Yeah, overall pretty good.
I don't think the synths go well with it though. The tunes are good, but they would have sounded better with different instruments (I like the guitar, piano, and that background chorus/orchestral sound).

[HW - The Introvert]

Oh man

I could just walk down the street at night, alone, in the rain, with a hoodie on.
Nice job.

haywirehaywire responds:

thanks, but wheres the crit for the 8?
