Decky's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tranquil Remix]

A nice bit of Dub.

Not really my genre and I haven't hear the original to compare but this seems like a great track. Gave me something chill to listen to whilst smoking and I can't ask for much more than that.

I'll be listening to the original next.

Keep it up.

PizzaKiller responds:

Thanks man

[Thiscom - Rainbow Knight [Dance]]

Who doesn't smile in their heart when they hear a mix of 8-bit and Dance. Personally I found the concoction to be a great listen. Bravo to you.

There isn't much I can think to point out techniqually about this other then I would have like it to have been longer but what do I know.

Well done.

DjThiscom responds:

Thank you for your positive comment.
I was really happy when I see I make someone happy. :)
Of course I will try to create more similar songs. Eventually.

[Dark Waters]

A nice track. Sometimes the piano feels like it could use a could of re-thinks, for example 00:15 - 00:24 is great but I feel that the cut in with the piano that follows is a little too harsh and could have been more flowing to keep with the preceding bit.

Very little to pick at here though as it's a good audio.

Stereocrisis responds:

Thanks Decky. Much obliged. Cheers.

[Chipper Tune]

A pretty cool loop.

It feels like it would be at home in modern take on an upbeat, retro classic. A new Ice-Climbers perhaps. There's an idea in there somewhere, I can feel it.

I can't really think of a way it could be improved as it seems to fit its purpose perfectly. High praise, yes, but doesn't make for a lengthy review I'm afraid. So...Pat on the back and all that, keep it up. Hope to hear more soon.

SuperBastard responds:

Thanks for the review; a little praise goes a long way!

[-Love & Radio Nights-]

I can't really fault it. It's pretty much what it set out to be, an upbeat, cheery and distinctly electronic tune. No more, no less. In a good way. Personally, I can see it being used by someone to put over their credit sequence or the like. Hopefully somebody will come across it.

All appears good and I can't hear anything of concern.
Good job.

bluebooblue responds:

Thank you very much for your review Decky!!
I'm glad you like it! :)

[Trick or treat (1)]

Not bad, it reminded me of something that would be in some kind of overly epic Scooby-Doo style corridor chase. I can easily see this being used by somebody to liven up a cut scene or maybe over the menu for a game.

The only thing that I would say is it's a shame that this wasn't released around Halloween. I know it's a small, insignificant problem but these things always come of better around that time of year.

Vierarmig responds:

Thank you for the review!
May be I misunderstood the rules but this track was composed for a real game which was already released (I compose music for concrete games). This game was released exactly around Halloween, 2014. Now, i just posted my works disregarding themes.

[|R|Skipping Through Time]

The first sixteen seconds of the song sounds very epic like something you'd here over the top of an establishing shot in some extremely atmospheric movie like one of the Lord of The Rings movies. Not exactly a bad thing when all is said and done.

I like that after this the song slowly builds up layer by layer and feels like it is leading up to something big. As I see that you have uploaded this under the "Video Game" category I can only imagine that this would be on a fast paced, platform game in the level before a boss battle. Of course this could just be how I'm interpreting this track.

Towards the end of the track I have to say that it had a sense of too much repetition for my taste but needless to say I can really see this being picked up and used in a game at some point. Though maybe making it into a loop would have been better. My knowledge of music unfortunately doesn't allow me to know if this would be practical or possible.

A great audio all in all.

Radiationator responds:

Thanks! I agree with your interpretations, and they are pretty much in sync with my ideas on this song. I've got a lot to work on, and thanks for helping point out what that is. Great review! :)

[Chilled Vibes]

Your username and the fact that this song is called Chilled Vibes gave me the impression that I probably should smoke a joint whilst listening to this. It's usually a good sign, I wasn't disappointed.

As the name suggested it was pretty chilled out and I could listen to it a few times in a row. I feel that maybe a little more variety in the song wouldn't have gone amiss, like what happened towards the end but more. If you get what I mean. Other then this I really can't think of something that I'd improve on. Maybe would have made it into a 5 minute epic but that's just me being over the top, possibly.

So yeah, in summary good job. Keep it up.

cheers bud ;')

[~SW~ Astral Nation]

It took me a while to see where this was going as I'm not going to read a description that long, that's just madness. Once I understood I could see that this is a great audio track and would work perfectly as some kind of menu music for Empire Earth or another game similar.

I can't really think of a way that this could be improved as I'm not the most musically minded person and to me it seemed perfect. All Ican really say is keep it up and I'll keep an eye out for your next piece.

SkyeWint responds:

Hey, thanks for the review! I'm glad you liked it. ^_^

I doubt it's perfect, but I definitely understand the "not-musically-minded" thing. I'm the same way with visual art most of the time. xD
