Corona688's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[-Time Machine-]

Excellent journey/cutscene music

Reminds me a bit of the old SC2 hyperspace, of which I never thought I'd hear an equal.

[{Rose} Remastered]

Worth the remix

I liked the original too, but on hearing this, yeah, it lost a lot somewhere along the line. Good job fixing it!

[Clickclock Wood - Fall]

Odd and not bad.

This one keeps to the beat better than the other clickwood one. This stuff reminds me of airtuna...

Assassin2 responds:

Judging by the name I take it that's a group of acapella like folk who mimic instruments, like Naturally 7. They're funny, and good. And yes this one I finished and took more than a second to make. Thanks for listening.

[Green Hill Zone *Request* vr3]

Very midi, yes

That is to say: Every note hit is jagged and abrupt! No notes carry into each other, each one is a full stop. The melody is extremely mechanical and almost without variation. It's like someone replaced all the instruments in a MIDI rip with more complex synthesized instruments without correcting any wrong sounds. I won't say you did, but will say that it sounds like it, and if unintentional it's a poor style to imitate.

[<.::The Master Plan::.>]

Very ambient

...but not boring. Most ambient just...fades into the background for me but this has a strong enough presence to keep my interest. It's melody is also very interesting and sweet. The ending might be a little abrupt but in a song like this it's either that or loop it, I think. Good job!

[<EagleGuard> Tyrian Remix]

Excellent melody and use of stereo surround

Very airy sounding.

That electric guitar instrument, though. When it changes quickly, it sounds so MIDI, like it's stuttering. If there's anything like a sample offset effect in your software(play sample from point X instead of from beginning) you could make it sound a whole lot smoother.

EagleGuard responds:

Hmm... I guess I could change something to make it sound smoother. I'll think about it. Thanks for the review :)

[TAWG - Back Against The Wall]

Now there's a song to wake you up.

You know those songs where you have to listen for 3 minutes before you find the rhythm and begin to like it? This... is not one of these songs. 3 seconds in I was enthralled. The guitar and bass work kept the pace up all the way to the end. The lyrics were very well-done, clear and expressive.

[Everythings a Sequel]

Very solid-sounding instrumental rock.

I usually prefer music without vocals but this one just seems to scream for them, probably because of how much this tune reminds me of some tunes by the Gin Blossoms. A bit more variation with the muted bass guitar would be good in that solo but other than that it's really very good.

[Flying Battery Zone remix]

Very interesting rhythm, but a bit jarring

The repeated de-syncing fits and starts of the melody interrupt my enjoyment a little bit. The effect is nice in small amounts but could be toned down a bit. Otherwise wonderful.

[Meat Song]

Great beats!

Terrific start, don't give up on it now!
