The-Great-One's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Smooth Bit]

I Like It

It's short and basic. Perfect for if you're timed to decide something in a flash game or if you had to make a decision on an ending or even for a scene selection screen. It's just a simple thinking tune and I enjoy it.

[Shelf in the NES]

Nostalgia

Certainly an epic piece to take one back to the old days of the NES. Many things come to mind when hearing this, mainly those of Mario, Link, Pit, Castlevania, and Contra especially. Certainly a grand video game song to be held among other video game songs. You sir have made quite the brilliant song and I credit you for that.

Sincerely,
The-Great-One

[-Investigation-]

Well Done

This is certainly a very catchy investigation theme, however it just seems it is missing one more thing... I think it would a touch of strings or something in that variety, but that's all. All in all a great investigation theme.

Sawdust responds:

Okay, gonna add stuff to it then.

[Death of the Angel]

Amazing...

0:00-1:07 irked me. However when we got to 1:11 it became quite beautiful. You told a story here didn't you.

The beginning showing the death of an angel and their second rising to heaven once more, for this angel knows it has done all it can for now to deal with the demons below. It was a calming piece that started with the catastrophe and ended with the second battle. A very entertaining piece.

[Troubling Thoughts]

A Dilemma?

It does to tend to sound like a dilemma, but maybe it's just me, but this sounds like TheWeebl's flash "Owls." I could be wrong though, but it's just so familiar. Anyways it does sound like a troubling situation and dark street corners come to my mind as well as the smell of cigarette smoke, it is certainly an interesting piece you've come up with here and ends on a note of insanity. A wonderful song you've submitted here, wonderful indeed.

[The Lea]

Great Song!

At first I saw a Map Screen instead of that Grassy Field, but as the song kept going I not only saw a Grassy Field, I saw a Vast Meadow enchanted with many different creatures both kind and hateful. It puts a person in the sense of adventure when listening to it. It certainly has captivated my ears. My only question is the title of the song. Don't get me wrong it's unique and it sounds like a great title for the name of a Grassy Field, you know what I'm guessing that's why you picked it. This also loops perfectly which all in all is perfect.

Darkmaster603 responds:

Well, Lea means grassland/meadow, and I couldn't really think of a title for it. So instead of "Grassy Field", I decided with Lea =P.

I'm glad you liked it though, it's meant to be the song for when you're walking around in the woods/forest area.

Thanks for the review!

[Silent Tears [Orch]]

Very Beautiful Indeed

This orchestra sounds a bit happy. A very nice tribute and a great song to listen to. All in all I gave me a happy feeling while listening to it. You did a superb job with the strings I must say. You should certainly do more orchestras in the future... perhaps something with a French Horn?

Dj-Flux responds:

French horn is pretty specific.

I'm sure I'll have the entire orchestra at my disposal to make another piece.

[Opus 1 for Two Fake Cellos]

Magnificent

For your first go certainly a wonderful piece. Reminded me of the TV show "Little Bear." I'm glad at least one admin has a taste to make Classical music. Please make more within the future.

[Rytus]

Boring

It's just a really boring dance song. Nothing more needs to be said. It was way too repetitive and although the tempo changed (had to wait forever for that) it still wasn't that entertaining to listen to. It made me drowsy to be honest and not in a good way either.

jayther responds:

Haha, I didn't know what genre this song exactly belongs to. What do you recommend?

And yeah, it's not really supposed to be much of an upbeat song. Just some easy listening. It was made for a dance thing, but it's really more of something to just listen to when relaxing.

[Bushido Blade]

Finally!

This is what Drum 'N' Bass is supposed to be! I'm finally glad to see a good DnB song here on Newgrounds.

Truly the best drums I've heard in a LONG time. You combined so many atmospheres together showing that a drum set doesn't have to be the only time you can't drum-up a beat. So much was mixed together and I truly enjoyed every single second of this song. Kudos to you good sir, kudos to you.
