This isn't too bad, actually

The intro + outro are great, though they take a little more time from the track than they should. The vocals are quite good, for what they are - even the regular singing works when you can hear it (though as it's mixed, right now, for most of that section the guitars drown the vocals completely). The guitar work is heavy, chuggy and awesome.

I liked it quite a bit, overall. Rock on, man. \m/ ( -_- ) \m/

Ha, that was short, yet surprisingly catchy

It is unfortunately short, though. I think the odd harmonies you have going would've made for an interesting track, given that this track made something more out of them, but right now they just hit you in the face and it's over.

The production is quite nice, though, and the beat works well.

Squeezums responds:

yeah, i might finish it, lol i just made it for fun :P But thanks anyways brew :D

I like what you did here, but...

I don't think you're supposed to post any samples that are not free domain and/or samples you created. I know you're not stealing credit for the singing or anything, but posting this could get your account banned.

I like your other stuff quite a bit (and even like what you did here) and wouldn't want to see you get hammered for this, so... yeah. Link to your YT vid or something in your profile, make a sound cloud account and post it there, etc., and please remove this from the portal before a mod removes it for you. Sampling work that's not your own could get your audio account banned, even if you're otherwise legit, and even if you provide credit where it's due (as you did here).

:/

XayberOptix responds:

Charice personally gave me full permission to use her acapella track.

You seem like a nice guy and all...

... so let me give you a heads up and say that this material will get your audio account banned, if the audio mods find it. You cannot upload copyrighted material (like the Chronotrigger theme in the background, and likely the drumloop, though I can't say for sure) on Newgrounds, as it's against their policy.

You should delete it before your audio account get permanently removed.

DemonicDuo responds:

Its a REMIX. I sampled the Chrono Trigger Theme song and put my own drums in, obviously. Can you not read? Everything is made by me.

Very solid work

You're always fun to listen to, when I find your name pop up. It sounds like your experiment was a success, anyway - these instruments actually compliment your older synth design of heavier, deeper bass and little upper end. Of course, that means that this specific mix doesn't have much in terms of bass, but I think you know how to add enough bass in a mix already so I won't give it more than a passing mention.

Good stuff, here.

Oh noes abruptt ending!!1

Nah, just kidding, I know you just didn't want to make it anymore :P

I like some of the sounds that you use - the wobbly FM synth is really fun, especially. Overall I get the feeling that there's really no direction or change of pace, though, which makes it feel like it drags on a bit. Changing up the chords more frequently would help in this regard considerably.

Nonetheless, it's pretty good.

FairSquare responds:

Well, i didn't really put much effort in this, so you're definitely right. I use to change things around much more, just didn't felt like doing it this time so i made something extremely simple that's just fun to listen to for 1 time.
Anyway, thanks for the review! Appreciate it :)

This is an impressive 8-bit track

Sounds like an authentic 8-bit track to me, so either you're miraculously good at emulating the oldschool sound or you're using the wonders of a tracker. Either way, an impressive track. I especially found the quick program/timbre changes very well done.

bluerabbit78 responds:

Thank you! Actually, I use FamiTracker. I made this track a few months ago, and have improved slightly since then, so my new creations are better. But I have to say, this is one of my best pieces. Thanks for the review! ^^

Hahaha...

Yeah, this one pretty much rocks in every way possible. Good use of chips, very happy go lucky, and the arrangement is pretty good. Though it still only will get a '9' in this review because I'm a jealous asshole and you beat me in the compo with this one ;)

Also, hey 'sup.

A pretty good remix of this track...

... though I would highly recommend contacting Jillian Aversa on those vocals, as those are copyrighted samples. I suspect you can get permission pretty easily from her, but you should get permission, nonetheless. You can get in touch with her via the info on this page.

Or get a hold of Zircon - it's his wife, after all, so if you can't get a hold of her, he's the next best person to get in touch with.

I enjoyed the remix of this track, though - the trance arrangement is very fitting to the source. I can hear a lot of work that went into this, and I wouldn't want to see you get in trouble for this track (no matter how good it is, copyright issues are copyright issues...). It would be that much better if you got the artists permission to post their samples, though.

This is incredibly sexy

I loved every second of it. The glitches, the synthesized bass funk, the instrument choices in general... I mean, dayum.

The repetitive nature of the chords is slightly annoying, but I understand that helps it be more improvisation-able with the instruments above. Still, a little more motion with the harmonies would've been ideal, though this is still perfectly fine, regardless.

Great work on this!

I've frequented this site for quite a few years, now, and support what you're all about. I can't draw worth anything (and my animating & programming skills are sub-par), but I'm a decent composer. If anyone needs something for a flash let me know.
