HonorOfStyle's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Being Watched]

The main synth that it starts with feels unnecessarily loud compared to the other sounds for most of the track. For this to loop seamlessly, the last note needs to finish carrying out its echo before it cuts back to the beginning. Over all, this is a good mood setter, it could just use a more polishing and it could be perfect.

bluelephan2 responds:

OK. Thanks for your thoughtful criticisms.

[Westminster Tune]

sounds beautiful. Nice work! You have some excellent sounding instruments. And Woot! I use FL Studios too! =v=

Troisnyx responds:

Eh, thank you. ^_^ I have, among others, the people who posted the 800+ soundfonts on NG to thank. Are you running on FL Studio 10 or 11 out of curiosity? (I'm still running on 10...)

[Dramatic Orchestral Cue 1]

This is excellent! This would definately fit in a movie or something

sorohanro responds:

Thanks. Hope it will get in a movie or game :)

[Godless Machines]

Not bad! It lacks a general purpose and direction, but if it was to be used in something it could possibly be best used in an action moment in a movie or something. Sounds unfinished tho.

ObnoxiousCortex responds:

My experimental works may one day offer you all what you ol' so desire from the pit of your expectation generating chambers.

Thank you for your review, my good sir!

Let it rain - let it rain puzzle pieces.

[Numi - The Machine]

Awesome possum! What program u use to make dubstep? Been wanting to make some myself.

Numi responds:

Glad you like it :D I use FL Studio 10.

[Ominous (RG)]

Well to start, it certainly is dark, but I'm not really feeling any chills from it, but that may just be me. I think the snare strays away from the dark creepy feel you were going for, mostly cuz its rather too loud and present. What I, myself, would do, if adding in some sorta percussion to a song who's theme was of something eerie, is have the drum be more subtle and low volume. The piano sounds awkward against the strings, like you might'v been trying to play in a minor note but didn't quite make it. The melody feels kinda weird. It's not really going any where, disorienting almost, and with the beginning melody repeating the way it does the whole song feels rather like it's going in a short disoriented circle but all that may also just be me being harsh and critical... or it may not! You decide! I'm not trying to discourage! :P

RessurectedGir responds:

THank you. To be fair, I was utterly lazy with the violin instruments. I'll try updating this in a while.

[Innocence]

It sounds very nice. Sound quality is alright, but it gets a bit hard to follow as far as a melody is concerned after about 01:00 mostly because the lead instrument, the Harp, sounds like its going all over the place. The Flute sounds nice during this time however, but is drowned out by the Harp to be easily noticed.

Osaki responds:

I've been trying to balance the harp and the flute because the flute is actually supposed to be the melody. It's kind of hard to do in the program I am using XD

[The DragonBorn]

Am i missing something here? I don't want to sound hard or anything but this doesn't sound anything like skyrim... not really sure im hearing any melody at all... :/

deendeon1000 responds:

Ha. not really sure if you've ever heard it or if your just trolling.

[Heart of Courage -cover]

Great to see another fan of trailer tracks! I like what you did here. It's simple but you've gotten all the parts of different instruments right using just a guitar. I love listening to trailer music and the sort. If I could make a request, I would love to here what "Enigmatic Soul" (by the same company) sounds like done this way.
msg me if you ever get around to it

Chizrah7 responds:

Thanks for the great review! I'll se what i can do with Enigmatic Soul ASAP! Great to see there's another fan of TSFH out there \m/

[Retro Boss Battle]

Enjoyable

I like it. Its got a fun and simple feel and certainly makes me think of retro games. I would've put it under the video game genre as audio tho

Rampant responds:

Thanks :)

(I put it under Ska to try and avoid the zero-bombers, as they seem to target Classical & Electronic more heavily than more obscure genres...)
