GronmonSE's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[-RG- In a Teardrop]

Well...

There is a striking similarity between this and Lux Aeterna. I noticed it before I read the comments and had to relisten to Lux Aeterna to confirm this.

Some of the melodies are really similar, or at least the way they are delivered, particularly the intro and some parts after 2:00. Not that this is news to you or anything, but I really felt the need to point it out.

An epic track nonetheless. Good job?

Yeah, it's true. Darklight made the melodies, direct all Lux Aeterna complaints to him :D.

"Some of the melodies are really similar, or at least the way they are delivered, particularly the intro and some parts after 2:00. Not that this is news to you or anything, but I really felt the need to point it out."

I think after all the reviews saying it sounds a lot like Lux Aeterna, maybe we might change the melody up a bit. I don't know, I'll ask Darklight.

"An epic track nonetheless. Good job?"

Woo, thanks :D.

[MD2010 - War Theme]

Oh hey!

This is pretty epic, but no, screw you, I'LL MAKE A ONE-SENTENCE REVIEW SO YOU DON'T GO ABOUT BREAKING DOWN MY SENTENCES IN YOUR RESPONSE and because I'm lame like that and don't actually have anything to say because this is pretty much great in my opinion and you should keep up the amazing work, disregarding the fact that I used too many "ands" and "because"s.

<3

Step responds:

Damn, I have nothing to break down.

You sly devil, you xD.

[Shima: Into the sunset]

Damn.

It had under 1.0 in score. Fucking 0 bombing idiots.

Upped it to 2.80. Don't stop making music, your stuff is great :)

[[IMD]~Voltage]

Hm...

Pure's right. You need to change the EQing on this. There's too much bass in it, the treble and the mids need to go up since it sounds saturated in bass.

Otherwise, it's a pretty little tune.

My headphones aren't bass-boosted by the way. It's your track.

IceMasterDlux responds:

Thanks for reviewing! Though I can never get enough bass, it's like bbq sauce! I guess not everyone feels the same, oh well. God bless!

[Face Down (Acoustic Cover]

Good voice.

Wanna collab sometime? My stuff's alright, nothing special, but I could find use for your voice somewhere.

seatellite responds:

sure, just send me an mp3 or message me and I'll see what I can do.

[Desperation Isle]

Hmmm

I have no actual review for this. I was going to recommend adding reverb to the vocals, but I guess I understand your reason not to.

Just dropping a comment to say I like this :)

Keep it up, Kor.

[There's Still Hope Left (]

Bananas in pijamas!

This sounds like the kind of song that would be played at a wedding or something. It's really happy.

I can't write a long-ass review like the other people, but I will tell one one thing. Lower the volumes or start compressing/limiting stuff, this sounds too loud in some parts IMO.

It's beautiful though. Love the melodies, appropriate drum beat, and good strings.

Keep it up.

Step responds:

Thank you :3.

I'm definitely going to lower the volumes. Or probably keep it as it is and EQ everything to infinity.

Yeah I get that 'really happy' thing a lot when I compose a song in a major. When I make one in a minor, it's all emo and sad, and in a major, it's impossibly happy.

Glad you liked the strings; definitely my best work with strings yet. Anyway, thanks for the great review, and don't worry if it's not a long-ass review, it's definitely longer than 95% of the reviews here on NG anyway :D. Thanks again!

[Time to face the monster[Gian]]

Good shit but..

Stop smoking weed <3

Gian responds:

NO

:P

[Rain?]

It's.....happy.

Well....this ain't House for starters. It's like...some cheesy techno that suits Penny Racers (cute N64 racing game). That's not really a bad thing, mind you.

Get new claps and hi-hats, I could be wrong but you're using the default FL ones.

The melody is like....adorable. No, really, it's cute beyond belief. I love the synths you used for it and I like the bell-like sound along with piano.

Gosh, it's so pretty and contagious. The beat just needs more... oomph! Yeah?

The "rain" at the beginning sounds super low-quality, try finding better samples online, they're everywhere :)

Overall, good song. Keep it up. Thanks for reviewing my song without actually asking me to review back, I like that.

leedon responds:

Thanks man! Good review!
I really didn't know what genre to put it in :P
Yeah they are default. In fact, all sounds are default, just with some tweaks. In fact, that 'rain' effect is just a bunch of claps :P applause slowed down and duplicated in different patterns and context. In fact, I really don't know how to really use FL Studio. In fact, I only have the demo version. In fact, I only work on these for a few hours then upload them, and delete the file since it's the demo version.

Thank you! I have a habit of making these 'happy' melodies. Just check out my other crap.

[~You Have No Idea~]

I have no idea.

My main problem with the track is how short it is D:

That aside, it's a great track! Sounds like an opening sequence for a show or something. Really good, loving the voice samples. Where are those from?

SatoDraygonFist2 responds:

All my songs are short, babe. We know this. And they're clips from Crash. Thanks for listening. :3
