KKSlider60's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Robot Butterfly]

Mixed sounds

Very experimental music there.
I think it's also a mix between Industrial and even 8-bit music, which I found to be fairly interesting. This song has its own style, and it's perfect the way it is.

[Afternoon in August]

Hmm

It has a weird but interesting melody pattern, mixing both dissonance and sad soundscapes. It also has a very SNES-like sample-driven sound, which could be used in a retro-styled videogame.
Good job, anyway :)
KKS

[The Dark-Haired Girl]

Good

Seems like a fine piece, with a bossa nova accent that doesn't hurt anyone. I suggest to add some reverb to both the strings and piano, giving them a more realistic impact. Nonetheless, I enjoyed it. ^^
Keep up,
KKS

Cuzone responds:

I tried reverbing it but no matter what I tried, it sounded too bright for my taste. The song sounds much better to me in this quiet, gloomy version.

Thanks for the review anyway!

[Vanish Into Thin Air]

Very promising

It's so rich of sound deepness. I'm not an estimator such beats, but this may be one of those rare exceptions. The heavy reverberated piano is a classic on pseudo-Chill atmospheric pieces, evoking watery/icy scenarios or maybe just a sense of lightness.
Still, good job mate, I liked it. ;D

I'm pretty excited to put on NG the full version of this song OH NO I CAN'T. yes please NO STOP IT!!;.; omfg

Thanks for the review my friend! glad you like it even if thats pretty short :)

[Life of the Butterfly]

Nice

I can feel every moment of this beautiful creature that is the butterfly.
Delicate, yet fragile. I have a second mental image though, like I'm traveling through some enchanted woods and I encounter a fairy entity (no I'm not a Zelda freak xD).
I wonder what program did you use though, as I'm pretty interested with the vocal samples you used ('cos you used samples... right?)

Anyway, good job and keep up ^^

Jessismith responds:

Thank you! Nah, that's alright. It was meant to have enchanting undertones. Also, it would properly suit fairies. I used FL Studio 9, and the vocal samples were my own voice, layered for a choir, and then I sort of wailed in the end. :)
Thanks again.

[Riding on the Edge(unfinished)]

Really nice

That. Was. Awesome!
Everything was in its fair place, loved both the groovy sound and the solo near the end. I think vocals should now be more Thrash-like, not Metalcore screaming nor pig squeals, 'cos they would ruin this piece.
For instance, a voice like '88-'93 James Hetfield's or Phil Anselmo's could be awesome there. Anyways, good job mate, the Realm of Metal welcomes you. \,,/

[Full Moon Rising]

Awesome

I fell in love with your samples... I can't wait to see your NN-XT pack, as I'm a Reason user. ^^
Great f'n kudos man, I can do Funeral Doom now! You'll be forever remembered and that's a promise XD

Best regards,
KKS

sorohanro responds:

Sorry for late reply, been busy.
The NN-XT should wait a bit, I'm having troubles importing 24 bit wav files to Reason... for some reason.
I'll convert them to aif and try again, but I can't promise it will be fast.

[Landscapers - Absolute]

Great

I commented on your previous PMs. ^^
Nice job again

thanks!

['08 Horror Stalker]

Great

Not very horror-like, as I expected, but it's surely a great work.
I like the variance of the structure and the use of a horn-o-rama like sound.
Overall, good job mate
