GronmonSE's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Metal Acoustic]

Quite nice.

Miyavi's one hell of a guitar slapper, gotta love his style. Question though, this is just a cover of his songs or what? The description confused me quite a bit.

CyriltheWolf responds:

Haha, sorry about the confusion, I will adjust that later. No, It is not a cover of one of his tunes (though I suppose I could learn one.) This is an original guitar solo, made just for NG and my friends off the cuff with lots of fun.

[<=Technique=>]

Not bad.

Very solid drums indeed, might as well get Beatcraft myself =P The piano is superb, impressive for a test song. The guitar isn't any better than FL Slayer, sorry. I've experimented with it myself and it's not as bad as people say it is if you know how to work with it (albeit I'm FAR from perfecting it or getting close to good with Slayer).

Cool Edit Pro is a wonderful, userfriendly program, but there are better. The song was mixed well, although I don't like having a crash cymbal on my left ear all the time. I'm guessing that's your new mixing program. Cubase is a better mixer IMO, but it's no way as userfriendly as CEP.

Nice job.

dammit-dude-2006 responds:

there was no actual guitar in it :P i just dont like it much anymore seeing as i've used it way too much

[p4c-sines of the past v2]

Hah.

Got nothing left to say that I haven't said on the earlier version. However, you've actually managed to make the sine drums now, nice work there mate. Kudos.

p4c responds:

hehe yeah thx. the snare was a bitch lol.

[To Zanarkand~Eternal Mix~]

Very nice.

Albeit I'll have to agree with LastEncore. Aside from lacking some reverb (and perhaps a very tiny bit of delay), it's quite nice. It lacks a personal touch, but I find it relaxing anyway. The only person who's made a superb remix of this song is a guy who goes by Crazy Pianist, but he doesn't want to submit it here. Could have added more, but I'll give you a 5 anyway.

Check out my latest WIP sometime ;)

DeSire21 responds:

I didn't mean to really post it as a mix. I just kind of change a little around using some nice sounds. Thanks the review

[p4c-sines of the past]

Very nice.

Slow start indeed as someone else said, but I don't mind it. Too bad the song's so short. It's -very- relaxing to be honest. Love the way the drums kick in too, the beat is simple, yet congruent with the song, and the bass is superb.

I'm guessing sines are wave/padish...sounds? Forgive my ignorance =P

p4c responds:

ty for the rev!!

man more ppl need to know basic waveforms, i sent u a message and ill probably post a thread if one doesnt already exist lol

[p4c-mystic[unfinished]]

Ahoy.

Long time no see.

Gave you a 5 to make up for the idiot who gave you a 0.

Sounds pretty...arabic to me. The song's well made for a WIP, albeit it's not my taste.

You should -seriously- finish "Sacrifice" by the way. Maybe we could even do a collab sometime, although I'm not a very good artist ^ ^;

p4c responds:

hehhe arighhtt arightt ill try to work on it. ive started to 1) get lazy on songs, and 2) get flooded with work, but ill work on it :D

collabbing mmmm never done it before, sounds fun. we'll figure something out lol

[Death metal improv]

Not bad :D

Credit for trying to sound like Chimaira's vocalist, heh. I'll be honest though, the clean vocals are truly awful.

The instrumental work itself is not bad. Fairly simple, but sounds good to me. I'd give it an 8 because it was made out of boredom.

If I were you, I'd tune everything nicely and release an remastered version. Should put effort on the next one ;)

aaronmusslewhite responds:

lol i honestly don't listen to chimaira at all but there famous so i'll take that as a compliment. And wow o.o.. i didn't think the clean vocals were that bad. Some of it is definately not great i agree.. but near the end when i sing lower i thought it sounded fine... at least decent

[Yoshi's Island Boss Battl]

:')

Brings back memories from Yoshi's Island.

Not a fan of how you arranged it, but it's one of your older songs, you've definitely gotten much better :)

Buoy responds:

WOW THIS REVIEW SCARES ME TO NO END WTF

[Vet-koêt, Tef]

Hmmm.

I have mixed thoughts about the song. It's dark, yet a bit inconsistent at times.

There's a bit in 1:22 that sounds weird, but that's probably because the chord and the melody interlaced.

Sounds offkey sometimes, but I don't think that's the case, it's probably the chord choices.

Starting from 2:22, the song gets madder, but I don't like how it ended due to the inconsistency I mentioned before.

It's definitely different from anything I've heard before, and oddly enough, I like it. One more thing by the way, you should have brought out the piano more. Some of the sounds drown it at times, specially the pads.

Keep it up.

newskies responds:

ok, thanks! it seems i made the effect i sure wanted to make. different, surprising, alien, yet cool.

[Wyldfyre Attempting an Original japanese anime theme]

You..

..have a bright future son, don't waste your poten- ok, enough of the bullshit. People who don't understand your joke are sad people.

How it got into the All-time top scoring list, I'll never know. NG conspiracy O:

wyldfyre1 responds:

Well i'm glad you at least understand its funny hahah! thanks man! I'll use my future to be ...uh...EVIL!! YESS YESS.. =)

thanks for the great review!
