LLAAPPSSEE's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Expedition to Mount Revenant]

---

Excellent man. Had some nice variety and some beautiful melodies. Like when the Amens come in. I like the backwards keys as well. Good atmosphere - I can see that ghostly, ice-capped mountain. :)

RetromanOMG responds:

Thanks for the review, AR. I actually got the idea for reverse keys from listening to your music. It's also good to know that my music took you somewhere, as yours does for me.

[Untitled Epic Beat]

Do it

Do it. Do it. Do it.

All of it.

Make it RAEL.

bossome.

AeraDynamic responds:

Oh yes sir I will, trust me I will tear this so named music portal to shreds

Dig.

[AD - EA Online Pass (No Song)]

\

I'm really not a fan of EA. I do not like their business practices. I think they're bunk and its basically like listening to Justin Beiber. Fucks. I remember reading about this in a game informer a few months ago. I was really shocked by it. They're a huge company trying to milk more money out of whatever they can. It's like a weird form of DRM for console games now.. blegh. If you want to curtail used game sales...make better games.

AeraDynamic responds:

Tru, I dont see is as being the worst thing ever did to gaming anymore. Its not THAT bad once you think about it. They got servers to maintain and if you buy your games used the publisher wont get anything of your money so its ok I guess. And you can still buy used games if you dont play online or its a singleplayer only game so not too bad for me now.

Rad. This has a really great feel to it. I can't say I can compare this to anything. Its got a really fresh vibe to it, man. I really dig and wish it was longer. Excellence.

AeraDynamic responds:

Holy crap you found your way to my songs :D I am glad you like what I do, there is plenty of it to come. Once I get better studio hardware I get it done I promise. I love making music but lately I dont feel like making anything serious. I found out some of my mixdowns are horrible, so I'm saving up for good studio monitors and a new audio interface. If you like my work, Ill send you a pm once I uploaded anything new :)

[[AL] What you gonna do (Remix)]

Slick as hell man. The beats are just great. All the filtering and phasing is fantastic. The beginning is especially captivating. Gets things started off damn right. Great mix of sound.

ChampionAnwar responds:

Thanks a lot, glad you like it man.

[[AL] She doesn't see]

Dig, the mix sounds great. I'm impressed that this was by ear, man. Excellent. You made the midi sound pretty great. I love this song as well, complete classic. It reminds me specifically of this old man playing this on the most beat-up guitar i've ever seen in an underground metro stop. The image will always stick with me. I hope to see him again. I could've listened to him play all day. Anyhow, Love the Getz & Gilberto version.

ChampionAnwar responds:

Thanks man, it's funny you say beat up guitar. . I heard it first played on a guitar XD so that's a bit of a coincidence. Thanks for the kind words man. Well appreciated! :D

[Light After Years Of Darkness]

Nice

Hey man, this is pretty good. The melody is really great and has a lot of intensity to it. The ghostly pads in the background are a very nice touch as well. It adds a bit more depth to the main keys. Its very biting, as I would imagine a bright light would be after coming out of darkness. Good tune.

EmpyrealVis responds:

Whoa . I am honored to have been reviewed by an individual such as you =D ! Thanks for listening, and thankyou sincerely for such a complimenting review . Cheers ~

[The Fire Behemoth]

Nice man

Didn't expect them drums to come in when they did. Very awesome. Beginning reminds me of a final fantasy-esque engaging piano structure. If it wsn't such a stock sounding piano and was actually performed acoustically - It'd be huge.

You did a great job on the amen sequencing. The way it flutters in and out, to and fro. I would say though, maximize the long glitches on the snare or kick when you increase the volume up / pitch up or down / whatever and put a pan by chance? I liked the panning after the first segment of drums. The vibe was just right.

Great tune man. I'll have to check out some more.

RetromanOMG responds:

Thank you for your kind words, man. As you know, I am a huge fan of yours and it means a lot to get this kind of feedback.

[Are You Tired?]

Awesome

Its really great to see another musician making music like this, man. Really is. If you get a chance you should check out some of my beats. I've got a similar vibe that I think you'd like. I really like this.

Your atmosphere is great. The melodies are fantastic. The programing is great. The keys I'm totally vibing on. Keep it up. Totally dig.

InvisibleObserver responds:

Had a look around, you have a happier overall tone then I do. With your drums be sure to remove the cut self on sliced beats, add subtle reverb, and sustain your note so the sounds don't play semi's. Layer in a seperate hihat track, and typically you can layer a kick and snare to match that of the sliced channel to help fill it out in terms of quality.

You use pads well.
