RyeGuyHead's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Try This.]

It's a little too empty and sporadic for my liking. It's also clipping at the end when the delay is running over itself.

corvett responds:

If you're talking about the very last sound you hear, it's actually vocals that have been extremely comb-filtered and clipped on purpose to make them sound that way.

[The Chupacabra]

I'm usually opposed to all thing loop/samples, but you did a really good job of mixing, splicing, and matching. I like how the song told a story too.

Nicely done.

deadfishfaces responds:

Linda Moulton Howe is a legend.

[The Way To Happiness]

Oi!

I couldn't really tell if you were trying to go for the full orchestral feel or not. I think its the upper plucked part that's throwing me off. Try to use a pizzicato string for that part or find a better sample...I liked your use of the drums, they were sparse but very effective.

I'm not sure if you did this intentionally or not, but the chord progression is a carbon copy of pachelbel's cannon.

This would work well as a loop.

djahmusic responds:

I never heard the ''pachelbel's cannon'' you mentioned... this is simply my first basic instrumental track.
and thanx for the comment!

[Fairy's Fountain Loop]

Good, but that synth is overpowering...you can barely hear the harp-eggiator.

Nice addition of the drums and the vocals/choir/strings sound superb.

It sounds like if Enya was the fairy of the fountain, haha. Loops pretty well

VGSongbird responds:

Thanks ^_^
I wanted to keep the melody a little louder, but I guess I could've toned it down.

[Shoppingcart Racers]

Too bad about that game...seemed like a cool idea. But I don't know about it being better than mario kart; Double Dash was a great game.

As far as this audio goes, sounds great. Good mix, I liked how hollow the strings sounded, and how the bass was doubled by brass sound. The trumpet solo is pretty awesome too. It really carries the song well throughout the pulsating drums and bass, which I can see fitting really well in a racing type setting. Loops pretty flawlessly too.

Great work on this, I'm sure it will be used by something soon enough :D

Maverlyn responds:

Thank you :)

[You don't wanna]

well

this is pretty damn awesome

At 2:50, it would sound better if the guitar was doing more of a solo. You might consider taking out some of the breaths too. That's my only real critique, though.

Mix is pretty good, the recording is spot on, the lyrics are great.

Excellent work

Lundsfryd responds:

Thanks man. I'm glad you like it man. I have to say I love the solo bit or though it's more noise than techniqe. I think it's uniqe.
