Ferstofus's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cyberstreets]

Starts with a great ambience. Then gets pretty inspiring. Also fast-paced, would fit great in a video-game. And the ending feels conclusive. Nice. I actually enjoy a lot of the simplicity you talked about, I think it adds some purity to the song. Anyway nice job, really liked it.

EagleGuard responds:

Thank you for your feedback and kind words! Glad the simplicity of the piece added to the overall enjoyment.

[-Feelin' Better-]

Pretty chaotic and agitated. And intense.

Nice

[Give or Take {durn}]

A detail...

Well, at first it had a calm and enjoyable pace that was well made and all... but between 1:53 and 2:50 (if I'm not mistaken), it was like there was something different going on. Like a "secondary song" that came from nowhere and started playing.
I didn't actually like this "secondary song". I think maybe it would be nice in a video showing the visions of a robot during a drug overdose (lol), but not in the middle of "Give or Take {durn}" (if you agree with me). Changing the beats are important here and there, but you changed too much dude.
Anyways, it was good and nice in the others parts. Here's ma opinion Durn, have a nice day and good luck on future projects.

durn responds:

Thanks for your honest opinion, Don-L. I knew the bridge/breakdown wasn't going to be for everyone but I wanted to try something different than my typical trance/floaty bridge.

I actually had another guitar melody playing during the bridge originally that kept it jazzy but it was in a different key than the rest of the song and I didn't like how they sounded when transitioning from bridge->ending so I dropped it.

Thinkin' now I maybe should've kept it to lend a jazzy feel to the central part as well.

Ah well, live and learn. :) Thanks for taking the time to leave your thoughts. :)

[Reasoner- Living Transparent]

Amazing

This music is too good to be described. The simplicity of only piano sounds used in such a beautiful composition and organization of notes made this an excelent and unique song. I doubt if there will ever be any criticism in a review that can help you to get better (if that is possible), but I just can't control my feelings for this song. I have to express them, the music is just too good. Please, tell me that my ears will still be pleased by your works in the future. And I'm very grateful for this one. Thank you.

[Abyss of my Thoughts]

Seens you were really bad

There wasn't so much things to vary the sounds, to break the rhythm. That's good for an ambient song. But some beats were louder than others, making then kinda annoying after hearing then for some time.
It's still a nice music tough; the music gives a dark, gloomy atmosphere as you said and it's not something that gets boring too son (well, that's my opinion). A nice ambient song overall. Good job.

[My Friend the Bottle ByKaniget]

oh well...

I think the voice didn't fit with the music, the guitar sounds became quite annoying after a while, and the rhythm was always the same in the entire music (even if it is not so bad). Maybe a good idea would be to change the beats in some parts or to use a better voice... I dunno, I don't understand much thing about music but that's my opinion. I hope this review was usefull.

Holy crap!

What a excelent piece of work, the crescent rhythm and the changes of it in some parts of the music was awesome, and I loved those bells (were they bell sounds?) like, "hidden" in the song and in the end/beggining of it. I say that I don't understand a thing about music but I do understand about my musical taste. BTW, this music gave me more interest about the audio portal.

LK412 responds:

:D YESS!! Im glad i could get someone hooked on the AP.

Glad you enjoyed it!

P.S. Yes they were bells. :D
