MegaGold's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[intermission]

A little worried with the title, but got surprised and impressed as soon as it started. The chords used for the guitar sounded just amazing. That's the part I enjoyed most. The way the guitars and drums went together just sounded amazing. I do wish it was longer though. Could maybe add to it, or hands off on how it sounds already. You tried making music and I would say you defiantly succeeded. Stick with it, it was great.

[Pudding Night]

Very hip hop-esk beat going on here. Would like some lyrics to follow up with this as well, but I guess that could be used for the imagination of street rappers. The choices of noises chosen sounded really cool. The echo effect near the end sounded cool, could have done with more of that. It also seemed a little short and could have been built up a bit more. Just a bit of nit picking. It was a sweet beat and very well done. Good job.

Thanks for the feedback!

They usually tend to run a little short. If a beat goes past a minute and a half I get kinda bored of listening to it.

I still don't know how I feel about the kick. It sounded kinda weak, so I turned it down an octave and applied Camel Crusher to it, beefing it up, but it also sounded really compressed. I'm wondering how the beat would sound with a different kick.

That echo thing was a sample I tried getting to sound melodic but it didn't sound good in lower octaves so I cranked it up and put lots of delay and reverb on it. Got this western clacker kind of thing going I was pretty happy with.

Thanks for digging the noises. Some tracks I focus more on the notes, others more on the sounds I'm using. This one was mostly sounds.

[~~Back Home~~]

Really cute 8-bit song with heavy drum beats. The tempo is also set at a good speed. Feels like you're right in a platformer. The quality is great on the song, and the loop is set to a good time. Quite a cool little jingle through out the whole loop. The bleep bloops (as you say) and the drums sync of very well and bring the melody out. Something I could see used in future flash games. Good job on this.

Ah thanks man, that's awesome!

[Heroes]

This song is very epic. Feels like you are just about to embark in a new adventure. It has that legend of zelda feel to it. The way the instruments were used are perfect. I always like the way pianos sound together with other instruments. Not the longest song, but it serves it purpose for what it's used for. Definitely should be used for a big high budget RPG flash game. The quality of the song was also on point. I enjoyed every second of it, good job.

Jmagnum responds:

Wow, thank you very much! This is the nicest review ever, and it made me happy :)

[Townhouse Re-Mastered]

I remember playing this song on beat rocker and thinking this song rocked. Years and years later, it still has a place in my heart. The way this song is constructed, the singer, the tempo is all just perfect. I believe it's worth a download, hell it's in my itunes. Good stuff.

[On My Way Down]

Like Three Songs in One

You go from one thing to another with your music, which is pretty sick. I believe you should have added more with the beggining beat, instead of letting it die down that fast. This song has some of the most beautiful melodys givin in a song that I've from in a while. The song really opens up your mind visualy, at least it did for me. Good name for the song, and amazing song none the less.

ShadowWingz responds:

Thank you! I'm glad you like it.

[Mute City [Box-Killa]]

Always Down For a Mute City Remix

The heavy bass worked so well with the other beats. It had a few of it's own beats, but it worked out rather well. The quality is great, people could enjoy this cranking their speakers up. I like how you made the transitions between a couple of cool beats, to completely different. The speedy tempo also made the song more enjoyable. It also has an 8bit feel to it. Overall great job, I always enjoy listening to a Mute Cite Remix, cheers.

[Essence of Time]

Pretty Decent Song

The opening was quite cool to the song. Great name you though of for this song although it sounds more like some type of hot climate place. The beat was not bad, although did get a little tedious. The loop is quite cool and I hope some users use this towards some type of game, it sounds like it would have good potential.

Rainfallen responds:

I agree; I usually don't like to make repetitive stuff, so I'm trying to get better.
Thanks for the input :)

[Halloween Collection - Song 1]

Sounds Halloweenish

This song could work well for like an 8 bit type of halloween flash game or some type of Pico game I would think. The beggining was kind of bland a boring, but I guess you were just slowly building the beats up. It was just one continuous music loop however, you could have added a little more creativity and changed it up a bit. Great idea, and a very good out come none the less.

[Hop18]

Quite Basic

Even though it is quite basic, this short loop could work well for a menu or title screen for a newgrounds game. The qualite was quite decent, the beat was also not bad. More beats could have been added to give a little more. Not bad for a short loop however.

Cyberdevil responds:

That was my intention, thanks for the review!
