TeHLoY's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[+- Frozen Arcadia -+]

Great!!

Once again, the intro is almost perfect. I can feel tension building up in this..

I think I'll focus more on the changes in this, I think I hear more pads fading in and out in the background. That is a really nice touch, I never really expected that. It does help give this an atmosphere.

I like the breakdown, it did release a lot of emotion in this song.

Overall, this song spells AzureVixen all over it. It definitely has your style, but really evokes it's own mood. I think this has to be one of my favourite songs of yours. =)

[Christmas Is Here]

Almost perfect.

I think this is great. Good singing, and the chord progression really suits the mood.
Very christmas-y.
This gave me chills down my spine. o.o

Only problem is that the vocals are too soft. As the others have said, turning them up wouldn't hurt, but I think you did it on purpose, as you said that your microphone isn't that good. Perhaps some reverb can help mask the low quality...

Great song, overall. Really love this.

And mind if you check out my songs? XP

GamekrazzyProduction responds:

I tried... and I hate FL for this... In FL it sounds like it's perfect... but in the recording it isn't loud enough...

[::Flurry]

Beautiful.

Wow. I love the christmas-y mood this gives me. Really pleasant.
I don't have much constructive critisism to say here, as I can't find much to say about this song. The synths used were great, I love the subtle things you've put into this.
Melodies also work really well, I love the bell like sound and it's melody in this song.
I think the bass is a tad loud, but that's easily remedied by a simple eq...

Overall, really good song here. Downloading this.

[+- A Short Memory -+]

Wait a minute...

I swear I heard this song from you before...
Oh yea, it's the one with the weird bass part.. o.o
Good to see you've rearranged the song (and removed the bass part), it flows much more smoothly now. Though I can't really tell a difference between this and the second version. Maybe it's because I don't remember...

["Heroic Kingdom"]

Wow....

Perfect 10 for this. This is really epic.

Okay.. since you asked for it...

0.00: I think I'm getting an aerial view of a castle?
0.29: Zooms in to some war that's happening at the ground level...
0.46: Some people planning a strategy in some dark room..
0.53: Back outside. They're winning (I think)
1:15: The hero comes?
1.21: Something happens to him?

Okay, I think my envisioning is rather crap. I don't have much imagination here. =X

XayberOptix responds:

Hey that's pretty good! I think you might be right on! ;) You have a great vision! Thanks for the review!

[Cleansed]

Awesome!

Think I'll give this all 10 stars.
And this is coming from one who doesn't exactly like heavy metal...
I have nothing much to say about this song, except maybe that I like the electric guitar melody...

CloudConnected responds:

Thanks, I appreciate the response. :)

[~ One Track Wonder ~ [CAT]]

I leik this.

Despite the rather cheesy chord progression, I like this song. The instrument is weird, but somehow really nice to listen to.
Can't believe I haven't added you to my favourite artist list despite listening to your music before I joined newgrounds...

Catstuffer responds:

You heard some of my music BEFORE you came on newgrounds? Do tell!

Yea, it is a strange sound. Goes to show you can even make strange sounds sound alright if used properly.

Thanks for reviewing!

[Loving Affection]

This is great!

This is great. Think I'll try and give this my full review.

Melodies/ Rhythm:
The melodies you put in this is pretty good. I like how the tunes sound so simple, soft and really soothing. Honestly, this song could have a bit more rhythm at the beginning, but it does get better towards the beginning. The (I think) harp ostinatio does give this some rhythm towards the end.

I love the rather unique chord progression. At least this is good, not like those common ones that are heavily overused.
The song does progress well, from a nice piano tune to more complicated bell melody. I just have to say, the beginning started out rather slow. The ending is also good, but it seems to end abruptly in a way.

I think the mixing is okay. I just think that the bells are a bit too loud. But most other instruments are mixed well, I don't hear much problems in this song.

Overall, this is great. I think I'm giving this a 10, its good.

GamekrazzyProduction responds:

Thanks... I had alot of fun actually making this piece... AWsome Review... Im glad you liked the mix.

[Jingling Gameboys]

Hmm..

8 bit? Seems like this is like any other 8 bit remix of this song.
This song seems to lack in the low end, I hear very little low mids and bass.
Still, this does seem to loop. Pretty nice touch there.

GamekrazzyProduction responds:

IT probably is alot like any other remix out there. You cannot differentiate 8-bit classic tunes much. The harmonies were made up by me as I don't actually know the harmonies in the song.

[Caroling Xylophones]

Like right out of a music box.

The music box-y instrument is a pretty nice touch for this, gives a more christmas-y feel.
I just feel that adding some other instruments to this will really help. The whole song is high pitched, so maybe adding some other instruments like a piano or some strings would help make this better without ruining the music box mood.
Also, it seems like the instrument is slightly messed up by the EQ. Seems like the lower pitched music box changes volume dramatically when it hits certain notes...
Still, pretty good. Simple and neat.

GamekrazzyProduction responds:

If you need to know exactly how that works... well first off I see your point with the multiple instruments... I don't want to lose the effect, but you gave me an idea of adding a progression sound to this and having piano then strings come in later. As for the amplification, that is due to the round that I have going on here.. Some notes in the beginning are the same at the end.. If the two notes start at the same time they amplify, while if one is half a beat behi, they cancel eachother out. That is why when making a round it is important to watch where and when the notes occur. I don't see the little amplification parts an issue, but if anything canceled that would be a big thing that needs to get fixed. Thanks for your review.
