ConnorGrail's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Dark Desolater]

This sounds like it could be in a Metroid game if there was one that was a little less grim and had some really quirky elements to it. It has that really nice desolate mysterious space vibe but I also appreciated the dancey parts a lot, made me think of an intergalactic rave battle. Which doesn't sound that cool but the way I imagine it in my head is pretty sweet

Spadezer responds:

Dude comparing my music to Metroid! I'm honored. And it sounds like our minds went in similar directions with the music so I dig what you're getting at. "Intergalactic rave battle" I don't think is too far off what I envisioned. Not quuuuuiiite what I was getting it, but that's the cool part about music is being able to communicate thoughts without words.

Thanks

[Experimental Happiness]

Very pretty, I think everything was placed just right for what you were going for arrangement wise.

[Island Impulse]

Makes me want to go chill at the beach. Pretty cool

me-the-Guy responds:

thanks man!

[Artificial Spirit]

I like this a lot. Honestly it started out reminding me of some badass fantasy game, then it turned into the Lion King, and I was pretty happy with that

Mattashi responds:

Haha yeah! It definitely has that Lion King vibe xD

[Deep Blue]

Wow this is really cool. Those synth sounds really struck me. Kind of "talkie" which I like and they glide SO nicely. Definitely could relax to this hard

etherealwinds responds:

That's what I first experimented with actually! In fact, I used something called 'decimate voice' somewhere in FL Studio, and it was a very strange but intriguing sound. Some tweaking, and I managed to make it sound really nice! I pretty much built the rest of the track around that and the pads.

[The Glitch (Save The Princess)]

That slow down part is sick, totally thought it was over at first. Super poppin tune

[Jump! (Save The Princess)]

Loved this from the second it started. So hard hitting it almost actually punched me in the face

[You Must Leave Me Behind]

This is super pretty. Short, but gets the point across. Whatever that strumming is in the background for some reason got me weak at the knees. Very tasteful

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Thank you, I'm very glad you enjoyed it! Maybe the thing you call strumming is the light percussion? I don't remember exactly what kind of drums I used, but it's some sort of world intrument :)

[Sadface - May]

Hey nice tune, nice mix, I have a real soft spot for this super chill beat sort of stuff. Makes me want to fly through the sky at night or something really really slowly

sadface-music responds:

I should probably turn you on to these. My recent music actually has exactly what you said in mind. https://youtu.be/bucV8Y_p0ME
