TaintedLogic's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Burning bits]

Really cool and catchy and climactic. I like the instruments, and I love what you did with the slide tool at :58. The drums were a little cliché, and I'm pretty sure you used some of the default drum instruments, but it's overall a solid track. I like the structure and transitions and melodies. Nice job adding some variation at 3:39 and 4:04. I liked the ending as well, but it cuts off a little suddenly. Did you intend for this to loop? Anyway, really nice job overall! ;D

erenik responds:

Loop: Dunno, maybe :P kinda making it for a game, so yeah XD
Never really know how to structure them, but yeah a bit sudden end, but it kinda works if looping :P

[Fluorescent Lights]

I like the instruments and mood and beat. It's catchy and cool and climactic. It's well-structured and smooth-flowing, but maybe a little repetitive. I like the melodies a lot, though. The ending was cool, too. Like I said, it's a little repetitive, and you should probably move away from using all those default drum instruments. ;) Other than that, I like it a lot. Good job! ^^

Smitsy responds:

Thanks for the review! Im saving up for Toontrack EZ Drummer so hopefully Ill get the drum issues fixed soon :D

[Sky's the Limit]

I love the dreamy, atmospheric effects and synths and piano. The melodies are beautiful, and it felt really climactic into 1:06. I love the mood and I appreciate the attention to detail. The song matches perfectly with the theme of "flight." An excellent composition! :D My one complaint is that it doesn't loop very well, but that's not really a huge issue. Btw, thank you for doing NGADM again this year! It's always produced such great content over the years, and continues to do so this year! <3 ...and I love your music, Step! ;D

Step responds:

Thanks a lot for reviewing! What I'm most relieved to hear is that the melodies are good! I found it difficult to compose something good for this! Yeah the loop is terrible haha, I didn't really intend to make it loop properly but I set it as a loop since in-game technically it'll be looping.

You're very much welcome for the NGADM! And I'm glad you like my music. Thanks again!

[Hot oxygen - NGADM13 - round 1]

I like the mood and instruments a lot. It loops pretty well, too. The melodies are well-written, and I like the structure and transitions as well. It somehow reminds me of the passage of time, and I also picture a small, busy town in winter. Maybe you could've done a little more with it, though - something to make it a bit more memorable. Still, I admire the high quality of your instruments and the relaxing mood. Nice work! ;)

Calamaistr responds:

Funny how people can hear winter in a track inspired by summer heat, but i understand why. ;)
As for the doing more / memorable suggestions, im not competitive minded tbh so i didnt go all out, wanted to build up the quality of my submits after each round. But ohwell, if im still alive next year i might create something that blows everything out of the water. :)
-cal.

[This Meeting-FYP^^preview]

I like the climactic nature of it as well as the structure. The effect at :08 seemed a little random and unnecessary, though, and the instrument at :17 was a little too penetrating and harsh-sounding for my tastes. It's not bad, though, considering it's a work in progress. This could make a pretty cool full-length track. You should keep working on it! ;)

aevidal88 responds:

thx yea definitely still in the works. The intro is a lil harsh i know. I hand made the rythm synth which im finding to be quite fun now these days. thx for the encouraging review. means a lot! : )

[Minotaur's Labyrinth]

I love the mood and instruments, especially the one at :53. It got a little repetitive at times, but I still love the harmonies and suspenseful atmosphere to it. The ending was pretty cool, too. Nice work! ;)
