shizeet's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Flying Unmatched]

Pretty solid loop

This doesn't sound like it took much effort, but the end result is not too bad at all. The instruments are all mixed pretty smoothly (though I'd like to see the organ brought out just a bit more). And since it's pretty short, you might wanna add a repetition or two, so the looping sounds better (the newgrounds player of course has a delay which kinds of messes it up).

MaestroSorrow responds:

heh, you have NO idea how much effort that actually took (not this loop, but the finished product), as my first techno piece I am rather proud of it, not satasfied, but proud.

Many thanks for the review ^^.

[Sorrowful Organ Recital]

Like the tune

But I don't care much for the synthy sounding pipe organ at all - the lower registers buzz on my subs like a sine wave or something :/. It'd probably be of more use arranged differently, or with a better organ sample.

Scarlatti responds:

I would not arrange this differently. Perhaps a better organ sample is doable, but the sample of the chapel organ is pretty spot on. It sounds exactly the way the real instrument does: pure and not unlike a sine wave. If I played it with the full cathedral organ, I think it would lose all of its mood. Thanks for the review.

[The Afterlife (v 2.0)]

Good soudning piano and guitar, but...

The rest of the mix sounds kind of weak, especially the percussion, which sounds like it's being sampled at 22khz or 8 bit, feeling very lo-fi. For the musicality, I kinda like the sort of minimalstic development, yet kinda disliked it too - I liked where you were kind of taking the piece, but in my opinion, you should've pushed the development even further before you ended it.

Diabolo-ical responds:

Yeah, I can agree with you here. But keep in mind I originally intended this to be a backing track to some vocals. I'm no singer though ;)

Thanks for the review.
