SmithBA's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lack]

I like the ambient, and kind of uneasy feeling to it all. It reminds me of a scary movie. I liked how you used the big piano hits towards the end, although a couple were a touch too loud. Overall I really liked this song. Great job.

[Orbit Base]

I could see this being in a platformer. I like the fast paced rhythm. A couple parts lost me here in there (around the 0:30 mark), but then it picked back up again and I liked it. Overall I liked it and I think it has just enough variation to the rhythm and melody to keep it from being too boring. Nice Job.

Genclops responds:

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for the review

[Tell Me What I Want To He]

Great song, but the vocals were very loud, at least during the 'verses'. The hook is incredible though.

I need to learn how to master

[[ATTW7] Envy's Theme]

This track is quite epic. I liked what you did with the percussion a lot. The choir might have been just a little bit too loud, but the choir was also awesome. lol Overall great track.

[Tripo]

Nice track! My thoughts on it (feel free to disregard these opinions if you disagree :p)

Pros:
1) I really like the laid back mood. I feel like the the acoustic guitar riff that comes in around 1:05 really fits the mood of the song.
2) The sounds you chose fit very well together. They compliment each other well. Nice job on that.

Cons:
1) It's a little repetitive. I kept wishing it would go somewhere. Maybe work on being a bit more progressive. Try out a new progression or be daring and go with a key change!
2) Although you have nice rhythms with the instruments alone, my ear kept wanting to hear some sort of percussion. Idk if you chose to leave percussion out of this particular track, if you did I understand that decision.

Overall I thought the song was fun to listen to. Good job on this track.

Awesome! Thanks. I appreciate the review and tips. :)
Have a good morrow.

[Waiting for Vblank]

Nice track. Well written and a nice mix. Just a little repetitive, but overall really good. Great job.

Hikari responds:

Thanks, I got a little stumped around the middle so that's probably why is a little 'loopy'.

[The Road Ahead]

This song is another one of my favorite pieces entered in the MAC. It's well written and the sounds you chose are awesome. The mix is really good. There's not much in this piece that I didn't like. You also get several bonus points for using Finale to compose the song. lol Really good job on this track.

samulis responds:

Hehe, thanks. Still could deal with a good bit of improvement as the other fellas have suggested, but other than that, it's a piece I'm fairly proud of, which is rare, tbh. Glad you like it. :)

[- MB - The Black Wind]

There were a lot of great songs submitted in the MAC and this is one of my favorite ones. I don't wanna write a long review, but I thought the track was fantastic and wanted to let you know I enjoyed it. Great work.

Breed responds:

Much obliged.

Cheers!
