KKSlider60's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[AA - Muffled Existence]

Chaotic medley

A theme for chaotic dimensions, matter that falls in a state of disorder, maximum entropy, an abstract mess. Nice experimental piece, my only complain would be the too-much-frequent ride cymbal, but that's just a matter of taste.
Everyone can just press random keys on a keyboard, but the true difficulty lies on shaping and personalizing your music, according to your soul and expectations.

AphoticAthanasy responds:

Ahh, yes the cymbal is like the division between two worlds, and everyone knows that it's a rough ride to be in both worlds at once . *cough* Multiple emotions *cough* . Sorry if it bothers you, but when I make my music, I do it from my heart, people have to learn how to agree with particular essence in a simple aspect . Thanks again for another great review KKSlider, I look forward to this collab you are contemplating on . ^^

[AA - Broken Mirrors]

Well...

I'll start saying that your atmosphere somewhat "caught me off-guard", in a sense that the intro sounds a little awkward to me. But the cool part lies beyond the middle, which I think is the real soul of this piece.
This track is like a painting that is waiting to be finished, but I still feel the dark emotions behind the ambiance...
And yes, I agree that people voting here, most of the time, have really poor taste.

AphoticAthanasy responds:

Thankyou, but I agree with Tokolos, he is right .. I been being an ass without even realizing it through tunnel vision . Let's just say we might lose our car even though we paid it off, because of selfish bastards who keep finding loop holes to make us pay more than we should .. :/ Thankyou, and thankyou Tokolos for awkwaening my true reflections, I can't believe I was letting my anger get to you guys . For my apologies I will make a pure song called ''I'm Sorry'' soon, and I will show you through emotion that I am truely sorry for giving everyone a hardtime that gave their time to give me their opinions . Again, I apologize sincerely .

[Orchestral Theme 2]

Nicely done

More suspenseful than the first one, in my opinion. I really enjoyed the key changes during the first part, as I'm used to horror-like Dark Ambient tracks.
Great piece

Gravey responds:

Thanks.

[A Piano's Testimony]

Easily a masterpiece

Reminds me of Ludovico Einaudi, if you know the pianist. I got this mental image of being the wind traveling all around the world visiting different landscapes.
Lovely track, indeed
KKS

Gravey responds:

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.

[Orchestral Theme 1]

Nice theme

Wisely orchestrated and mixed, I couldn't ask for more. :)
It reminds me of Final Fantasy XII somehow...
KKS

Gravey responds:

Thank you very much.

[A way to Remember (first run)]

Good

Nice percussive piano. It feels like you're struggling to beat some badass enemy, it's very battle theme-like. Adding some more reverb would be cool, since some instruments like piano sound very flat and unrealistic without it.
Good job anyway ^^
KKS

Evilxy responds:

Thank you for the review, I agree with you on the piano, I use FL Studio and am working on learning to add effects such as reverb.

Im glad you liked it. I will update the song soon and let you know.

[dadgad v2]

Well...

I don't know why some dumb MF gave you a horrible score for this. I mean, it's a jam, what do they expect?
Anyway, I liked it because it has an american folk-like sound - I imagined myself being in a canyon while playing guitar, lol.
Well done, mate ;)

loansindi responds:

Hey man, thanks for the review. I'm glad you enjoyed the piece, it's definitely a chillout sort of thing.

[Summer at the Monastery]

Wow

I could easily put this in this mental image... like you're in a little middle-eastern town, surrounded by desert, with a small oasis nearby, while observing life as it flows. Thanks for letting me know of this, it rules ^^
It's very delicate, and the beat doesn't ruin the atmosphere
KKS

[Forgotten Eden]

Awesome

Quite an awesome track, indeed, congratulations! :D
I could keep listening for hours to this, and as you said, is very dreamy, especially when you got the volume pumped up.
Nice job ^^
KKS

ProudAardvark responds:

Thanks KK! I've got some more coming up soon; check out "Summer at the Monestery" for a similar mood!

[Carolina and the Savage]

Nice tune

It sure has that "wild" touch that immediately makes you think about some jungle scenarios. There are theme variations too, and I appreciate it.
Overall, it's a refreshing piece, and I liked the metaphor of the "savage" heart.
