Aydin-Jewelz123's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[subway v2]

Robot licorice is what popped into my head.

Would fit well into a netflix future dystopian esque show.

Cool work :)

[Krinn's Sonata Part 1 (Mo grá)]

OHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Wow! That early intro with the vocals and bells is absolutely nuts!!

Such an interesting sound!!!!!!!!!

Rest of the track is nice too.

That guitar bit towards the end and the very first intro is 10/10

Should shape into an amazing track if done right :)

Such an Imogen Heapesque vibe!

Really love that start bit. Wow! Something of a mirrors edge vibe to it too.

Would really love to remix this if you ever held a competition or something! :D

[Aurora]

Self made.. sounds intriguing! Track starts off with a nice airy synth supporting the piano. I like the 8bit effect / roll into the next section and your dnb style drums are nice in the build.

The drop itself is cool. Reminds me of a runner style with a sword cutting through anime robots. Like Animatrix style.

The drop itself is quite light in tone. Fits well inbetween the genre you mentioned but theres a repetitive feel to it. Not quite sure what is inducing that vibe, maybe it's the synth.

Your piano bit just after the first drop is legit.

The non-drop parts on the whole are strong than the drops. Actually your second drop is a better fit than the first but again the repetitive feel is there. I think you looped a section right?

Repetition works but to do it, that section needs to really be strong. Otherwise a slight change, introduction of a new element, a change in octave, introduction of percussive element etc. would help keep the flow.

Anyway dude, good work and if you need another review hit me a pm.

[NanoShi - NanaShi]

Whats a NanaShi? Can I eat it?

Oo, nice delay pans! Yeah, that synth in the early bit fills it with a nice prescence and warmth. Definitely a nice build up.

Oooooooo! The drop is niceeeee. Quite a warmth filling style to it. The arp at 1:03 is nice too.

Decent track dude.

My suggestions would be to mess around more with the drop sounds, like audio design wise, get those wobbles sounding even more unique. A smidge more high end on them and for your kick too would be nice, especially for your build up.

Your snare hits a bit too hard when you have the pause snare bit on the drop. Drop it a smidge and give a smidge more umph to your regular snare with a smidge of EQ on the high end to give it that fill dubstep snare vibe.

Good track dude. Very melodic and unique sounding. Any chance of an extension? You could add a fully nuts outro with the arp idea and go bananas with it melody wise!

Keep up the work and if you want more reviews just send a PM.

[Mosquito Strut]

Has a punk kinda dont give a flip vibe to it. Just wish I could hear the lyrics better.

The backing stuff is good but the vocals need to come through more.

If you do tweak it, lemme know and I'll have another listen.

Groovy track and starts really well, just the mixing makes it difficult to follow.

Edit: for whatever reason, I can imagine some dude with knuckle dusters, a duster coat and a baseball bat who hunts vampires xD

[Orchard of the Spring]

Composition wise a very nice piece. Has a great vibe to it that would fit well into a Disney or Pixar animation.

Things to work on would be your transitions into the drops / chorus sections.

Get some new strings if possible too. Using midi strings cheapens the feel of an otherwise great piece.

The bit into the drop needs more umph. So it hits with more power.

Very nice melodies and decent chord changes too. You kept me interested throughout the piece and it's awesome.

Good job and look forward to hearing your future stuff!

[Felix Zophar - Living on the High Life]

Overall the vibe it gives me is 'crying with joy'. Like those times you are so happy you cry if that ever happens. Well the rare time it might I dunno.

Nice piece and melodies.

Quick feedback is to say your cymbal towards then end, on the drop, stood out a bit too much. Your piano in the bridge section could have a smidge extra melodies / notes and your sidechain section needs slight tweaking, not sure exactly what maybe another synth layer? Something to fill out the sound a touch more.

Good stuff, keep up the work and if you want more reviews just send a PM. Peace

FelixZophar responds:

Yeah thank you for the long review! I really appreciated it.

[Monochromaticity]

Wow dude, very nice!

Edit: having a second listen to give a fuller review.

The track starts off quite bleak, and somewhat entrenched in thought. Would be perfect for a movie or short sketch of a dude trying to solve a mystery or puzzle of sorts.

I quite like the panning you got going on. Usually not a fan of constant panning especially on main instruments but this works well, especially for example around the 2 min mark where a more central element jumps in.

Very ambient and lowkey piece. Reminds me a lot of the ambient tracks from the Breaking Point mod for Arma 3.

Would definitely fit into a mystery game too. Good stuff and well played.

alternativesolution responds:

Thanks so much for your review, this means a lot. :)

[-Daybreaker-]

Deus Ex esque intro, with some damn juicy ambience.

Yeah dude, this is nice. Would fit very well in a Deus Ex but side scroller version with over the top action John Wick style.

Very funky man. The vocals fit in well with the track. The 1:27, instrument and synth going back and forth is groovy as heck!

It's like the track starts off with John Wick guns blazing, and ends up in Kung Fu Hustle territory.

You've nailed the feel of the track.
