Casporb's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Righteous Path]

This is incredible! The drop and melody give me Boom Kitty vibes. Keep it up!

[Sunshine Drive]

Really experimental and cool, does feel a little out of tune and lacks a great melody, but still good. Like usual, it has cool synths, great drums, and a nice quirky style. Keep it up!

Sound Design: 10/10 - Cool synths and good mixing.
Composition: 8/10 - A tiny bit out of tune but decent.
Atmosphere: 10/10 - I could totally imagine this in some animation of someone driving in a sunlit desert valley.

Charlmot responds:

Thanks for the review! I'm not sure what exactly is out of tune but I'll try my best not to have it that way in the future
Melody wise I'm trying my best lol, I'll get it soon dw :)

[Spiraling Stars]

Good song, I like the unique sounds you introduce later on. The mixing is good, the drums do their job really well. My advice for a later song is to try and come up with a catchier melody, and maybe make it a little longer. Other than that, keep it up!

Sound Design: 10/10 - Good mixing and unique sounds.
Composition: 8/10 - Could have a clearer chord progression and better melody, but still good.
Atmosphere: 10/10 - Clear quirky vibe enforced by the sounds that come in at 00:53.

Charlmot responds:

I appreciate that! I'll keep that in mind for sure :)

[Destroyed]

In the intro the piano and synth aren't synced properly and the drop feels to much like random noises and is really short.

Sound Design: 8/10 - Mixed pretty well but to many presets again.
Composition: 5/10 - No melody, not synced and the drop's to random and out of tune.
Atmosphere: 8/10 - There's quite a clear mood I guess.

MinixOfficial responds:

It’s in key

Please don't leave )':

G2961 responds:

I've been rethinking it and thought I'd take a break.

[Cridexx - Riddim? (Prev 2)]

Huge improvement, maybe after that add the melody over the drop? The mixing is clearly better, and I can't wait until you finish it.

Sound Design: 10/10 - Now it's mixed this gets a 10.
Composition: 8/10 - The melody maybe needs more time to play, it only plays for around six seconds, and it would be cool if you brought it into the drop.
Atmosphere: ?/10 - Still not really long enough to judge.

Cridexx responds:

So I have something to strive for! Thx so much for your support!!!

[The City That Hates]

Absolutely outstanding! Mixed very well, and fits the game perfectly. One of the most atmospheric and emotional songs I've ever heard.

Sound Design: 10/10 - Outstanding mixing and sound design.
Composition: 8/10 - Cool composition although a melody would have been nice.
Atmosphere: 10/10 - Insanely atmospheric and crystal clear mood.

EVLanche responds:

Thank you! I didn't expect this track to actually end up getting used in a game providing the backstory behind it, but here we are ^ ^; Have to thank @MoeAnguish for that!

[Ending]

Cool melodic dubstep! While it is cool and I like the growls, you did play it on the safe side with the melodies and chord progression. I also think some more sweeps and white noise and risers would have improved it. Still, the melody is pretty catchy. Keep it up!

Sound Design: 8/10 - Mixed well but nothing special.
Composition: 9/10 - Catchy melodies and chords, just a little generic.
Atmosphere: 8/10 - Nothing really "atmospheric" but there's a clear mood.

Unpr0p responds:

The growls were made by overlaying 4 serum presets over eachother

[Cridexx - Riddim? (Prev 1)]

A great first attempt at riddim. I'm not a riddim producer myself, but this has inspired me to try. Anyway, mixing wise, it's clearly a WIP, so it needs to be improved if you finish the song. The sound design is pretty unique though, and the drums do their job nicely. Overall, I think you should finish it!

Sound Design: 8/10 - It's pretty much unmixed but the sound design is awesome.
Composition: 9/10 - The bass melodies are cool but pretty unclear if you know what I mean. If you make a melody in the full version try to implement it into the drop as a fill or something to add a slight bit of melodic elements.
Atmosphere: ?/10 - Because it's on 14 seconds long this one's too hard to judge.

Cridexx responds:

Wow! Thank you very much for your rating! I thought about it and decided that I would still make a full version of 'beta-riddim'.

[Boss Battle Theme (from "Final Fantasy IV")]

Epic remix! I love that lead, and the drums and mixing are great. The guitar is also played very well. Keep it up, I could totally see this fronpaged! (I'm suggesting it btw)

Sound Design: 10/10 - Great mixing, and the drums hit hard.
Composition: 10/10 - It's a remix, and the original's great, so 10/10.
Atmosphere: 10/10 - That lead really adds to the atmosphere so it's another 10/10.

BeyondOurEyes responds:

Thanks so much for the love and score! Glad you dig it! <3
