Corona688's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[What's Coming to 'em]

I like the beat a lot, and the lyrics do strike a note with me.. but I needed the key to understand them, they were spoken indistinctly and mushily.

Spoonukem responds:

Thanks for the review, I'm glad you liked the track!

As far as the not being able to understand the lyrics issue, this may be corrected when I release the lossless audio format of the album via bandcamp, but I'll see if I can get to possibly correcting these issues for the mp3 before the album release.

Thanks again! :)

[Scrap Brain (Sonic 1 MS Rmx)]

It's the first "scrap brain" remix I found which didn't try to turn it into something it's not(people seem to want to slow it down). The bassline helps keep it going, but it sounds a little sparse in parts.

[Sonic 1 - Scrap Brain - Remix]

Redoing "scrap brain" as trance loses a lot of its energy.

[F-777 - Sonic Blaster]

I haven't found a song I liked this much on Newgrounds in years.

[-GodRay-]

The first 47 seconds of this get 5 stars. Then it falls into 'race around the world' again and gets 2 stars, which averages out to 3 1/2.

I know you don't want to hear this, but I'm sorry, it's VERY predictable. I heard the shift in tone and was able to almost flawlessly predict what notes were coming next.

[Thinking in the Dark]

Not melodic enough to be trance, I think, but it's interesting anyway. The background thrum almost becomes percussion.

[Insufferable]

This strikes me as somewhere between instrumental and chiptune, it starts as instrumental, and slowly blends into mostly synthetic instruments. It'd be interesting to hear an all-chip version of this.

Spadezer responds:

That sounds like fun, and I might just do that. I haven't really experimented with any chiptune stuff yet mostly because I haven't found many instruments in my version of FL that has 8-bit instruments other than the 3x oscillator somewhat resembles 8-bit.
Send me a PM if you have any thoughts or ideas for 8-bit insturments.

And I'm glad you enjoyed my music

[isolation]

Literally painful to listen to.

Spoonukem responds:

No kidding! Thanks for the review though, it is an accurate representation and I appreciate that you took the time to have a listen! :)

[Sonic4-SplashHillAct1...]

It sounds very MIDI, as if you'd fed the sheet music straight into a computer. Technically perfect but there's very little variation between notes.

DrMackFoxx responds:

I won't deny I'm, shall we say, an experienced novice when it comes to composition and music creation. I focus mainly on just giving tunes a different feel with a different sound scheme, namely a piano/electronic one and often adding to the original tune to a degree. Mastering is something I have yet to delve into, mainly as I don't really know what exactly that entails. Or, if the ancient programs I currently have access to are capable of this.

[-Tentacle Tackle- (AAG OST)]

Another rousing rearrangement of Race Around the World, but we already had a few of those.
