Spadezer's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[AIM - Chris, the Boat and the Tormented Sea]

Aw man, I'm sad I missed this. I enjoy hearing your pieces (even though sadly I don't often take enough time to sit down to them).

I love your style, and I love your solo piano pieces. Definitely soothing, and just downright beautiful. You may not have won, but you no doubt have gained yourself a virtual hug over this.

Right on mate (don't think I'm Australian)

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

You didn't miss it if you're listening to it now! And I'm glad you did :3!!
Congratulations on your placement! I missed your track as well, but I took a listen now, and favorited it, because it's really cool! :DDD

I threw this piece together in like half an hour, so I don't mind not making it on the album! I'm still glad I participated though, as always :D
*gives a virtual hug*

Thanks a lot for listening and reviewing! ^_________________^

I have no idea how I missed this get posted. I feel bad that I did.

But....

This is definitely you. I love hearing your style pop up here and again. Although, for a sad song, this is pretty peaceful and happy. I bet I can write something more sad (haha not a real challenge. Making sad songs make me sad, and sad isn't fun lol).

But I get where you're going with this. And I dig it. The more I listen to it, the more I can just about visualize a thought process going on with this, and the emotion. And it makes me happy.

My mind is confused now. Thanks for that.

But I'm happy

AAAAWWW YYYEEEEAAAAAHHHH!!!!

I love me some good AIM metal.

TSRBand responds:

Thanks for listening! Rock on \m/

I enjoy hearing stuff from you. Not a bad piece overall. The mixing sounds like you're relying heavily on a compressor to keep the volume from clipping, which distorts it a bit.

The beginning took me back to playing the Bruce Lee game on the SNES (Facing the Demon). That part was cool

Pandasticality responds:

the distortion was intentional : 3 i'm glad my song paint an image for people, or a nostalgic flashback heh, thank you for the review !

Aaaaaaaaaand downloaded

I need to learn how to make that sound

Geoplex responds:

Thanks man. If you have any questions feel free to message me :)

[AIM - Crash and Fade]

This does a good job creating the atmosphere of the planet. A bit of the unknown and unsettling, and I can see it working great as a sci-fi game level. Very ambient

But where it falls I'm afraid is that it may not tell the story of the picture so much. It doesn't do much about what the pilot may be thinking or feeling among the planet. It doesn't give the sense of despair that the pilot may be thinking, or the acceptance of inevitable death. It might hurt your score, it might not. I'll leave that up to RealFaction.

By itself it isn't a bad ambient piece. The mixing is decent and brings along a cool feeling with it.

Kalviter responds:

Thanks for the feedback! I do tend towards pretty ambient production so I'm not surprised this is how it ended up, I'm glad it gets across the planet atmosphere well. It's a shame about the pilot's story not coming through as well as I'd like, though I'll admit I'm not too sure on how to do that better. Any tips you have would be appreciated!

[AIM - Meditation]

I like you.

I can see this being elevator music, or part of some nature instructional video.

Ceevro responds:

AAAAH! I have just spent the afternoon making Muzak! NOOOOOOOOO!!!!

[AIM - Rothgar]

I'm highly impressed. I was not expecting this from you. What I really is that you kept it for the most part in one key. Normally not a great thing to do, but considering where this guy would be coming from (likely from Northern Scotland given the attire and facial features) there would likely be some bagpipe influence with the cord structure. I'd wager it's in the key of D just on that point alone.

You get the flavor of the setting of the picture, and more impressively, you mixed his background into the mix as well. And your skills have improved since the last time I paid attention to you last.

You did a great jorb out there

Ceevro responds:

C# is the key, actually. Tuned to DADGAD, then a half-step down.
