Irish-Soul's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[After a While: A Pleasant Memory]

If only you could have seen my expression at 0:28 when the drums kicked in. I was wearing my "mixing" headphones listening to this song, and just a moment before I felt myself think: "jee, I really hope this song gets wide right now" and it's like you read my mind. Great production of this song, and I love how chill it is!

NoStereo responds:

Thank you! I really wanted that moment to be really powerful, I am glad you mentioned it :)

[Reflections]

Woah, rock on dude! I love symphonic metal, and this track gets it perfectly right. The drums really move the song forward, and that guitar of yours shreds like crazy! Such an enjoyable listen

[ARCADE]

Hey, this is some great stuff! It feels extremely energetic but doesn't blast too much at once. The bridge gets me hyped and I swear I could have that chorus stuck in my head all day. I like this song!

RedSkiesOfficial responds:

thank you :D

[Tango of the Mangos]

Wow this is great! Makes me want to throw on a tux and dance in the moonlight

ZaazNG responds:

Thank you! Rock that tux like there's no tomorrow :)

[Techno Vibes 2022]

Hey, keep up the good work man! You’re doing great with what garageband has to offer

[Spacewalker]

Hey, I like the vibe of this track! It makes me feel like I’m sneaking around or on some secret mission. 2:44 was definitely my favorite part.

I wonder if this song could’ve benefited from shortening the beginning/ introduction, because the sound design gets a whole lot more interesting later in the song. Just something to think about.

[Epic Sax Guy- Epic Orchestral Remake (Sunstroke Project- Run Away)]

Hey, this is pretty good! You took an epic song and made it more epic than it was before. I especially like the work you've done on the strings, making them sound extremely organic.

I don't think the BPM worked in favor of the saxophone VST you used for this song. I'd recommend either tailoring the track to the vsts you have (maybe by increasing the tempo or having a section where the saxophone can be quick) or finding a VST that can handle slower note lengths (like the sensual saxophone by embertone).

Overall though this is very epic and was a fun track to listen to.

CelestialChaos responds:

Thank you so much for the review! I agree with you thoughts on the sax VST completely, unfortunately that was the best one I could find. I actually had the tempo slower originally, and picked it up a little to try to make the sax sound less fake

[AIM 21 - Lighthouse]

Wow! I love how you embraced the 8 bit nature of the art in your music! It really sounds like it belongs in the space of that light house, which is cool. Your melody is super fun and I was drawn right in from the start. I also like the parts with the piano, it’s super calming!

There were a few moments when the bass was slightly overpowering and it made some harsh tones. I also think the bitcrush on the sound effects was a little much at times.

Either way, fantastic art and song! Great job :)

BaraAmann responds:

Hey ! thank you for feedback
Yep its look like the bass is taking a too much space a some point
and i wasn't sure about the crush too, anyway thanks for the feedback!
