TaintedLogic's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Vectorverse (Song 1)]

Catchy, energetic, cool, funky, cute, awesome, I love it! :D Really interesting structure and very well-varied. Smooth-flowing and really great mood and atmosphere. Loops well, too. Nice work, man! ;D

WarmanSteve responds:

Your words, they are too kind :D Really though, thanks for the review! I'll be posting the other 3 Vectorverse songs over the next few days, so more's coming!

[Dramatic Dimensions]

I'm not sure I like the distorted instrument you used at the beginning, but I liked the melody and beat at :28 a lot. It's very well-structured and the transitions are top-notch. I like how you play with the mood a lot during this piece, especially with the transition at 1:40, and then go back into a more energetic vibe by 2:10. Even the part at 2:24 contains both energetic and atmospheric styles. I think the ending could've been a little more interesting, however. Fade-outs often come across as lazy to me. Still, it's a cool piece, especially with the instruments, melodies, and moods. Nice work! ;)

Greatest219 responds:

Thank you !
I usually dont do fadeouts,but it seemed appropriate this time.

[Robo-ballet]

I like the instruments and mood, but I'm not sure some of the parts mesh together very well, especially before :32. I think you need better transitions at :04, :42, 1:19, and again at 1:24. It is well-varied and the structure is interesting, but it just feels a little disconnected as it is. The harmonies after :32 are pretty good, but it still feels very random and doesn't flow very smoothly, almost as if there are 4-5 different songs in there. It does loop well, but maybe you could add some drums or builds or something to aid with the transitions, which is my main complaint with this song. Otherwise, it's pretty good, though. You might have to play with the structure and transitions quite a lot to make it flow smoothly, but other than that, it has all the makings of a good start to a piece. ;)

BenTibbetts responds:

OK. Thank you for taking the time to write this detailed review.

[Funk 71 [WIP]]

Yeah! :D I like the structure and beat. It's smooth-flowing and catchy, and I like the instruments a lot. Dubstep isn't really my favorite genre, but this induces feelings of bliss, somehow! XD It's certainly unique and interesting. Nice work! ;)

Kaskrin responds:

Ah thanks! It means a lot, I'm happy that you dig it.

[Aerial Ace - Main Theme]

Cool track! :) I like the synths and beat and how it's so climactic. The beat itself was a little too loud, and I think you need more of a transition into that bass-y instrument at 1:41, but I like the part at 1:50 a lot. It's well-structured and generally smooth-flowing, and I love the key changes that occur around 2:50, as well as how you brought a lot of the various instruments and parts together at 4:20. You might want to make the transition at 5:09 a little less sudden, but overall it's an awesome track and it loops really well, too. You just earned yourself a scout, my friend! ;D

SonicYM2612 responds:

Thanks a lot man! I see that you really like my track. I see you've noticed a lot of key points in the song. Thanks as well for the suggestions, but I'd really like to keep the song just the way it is. To me, some of the suddeness in the music makes sense because in this game you'll have to be sudden and make quick decisions in certain parts. But as you saw, it is contradicted with the smooth-flowing parts, because there will be times in the game where it's not all action. At least that's how I see it. To be honest, the game has barely even started development, so we are still comming up with ideas and stuff. Thanks again! ;)
