wyldfyre1's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Your Bright Side]

Loving the hip hop styled drums. The piano's have a very Secret of Mana feel to them.. Actually the whole song does which brings me back to my childhood and that is a wonderful thing. This song is very catchy and i can see it getting stuck in my head. So as always buddy great job!

Thank you. :)

[The Journey Must Go On]

Ah, Classical. Now this is right up my alley! Love the ambient opening. Nice use of strings and is a very nice lead up at the beginning I do think that you should have some plucked instrumentation in here as well giving it a bit more finished feeling. However this has a wonderful epic feel to it and it tells a story of a great hero =). I think a drum roll leadup with some strings and heavy cello (You know i likes my cello) would be a great way to end this song. All in all its a great listen. Good work..

[Impressionable]

Well let me first start off by saying Hello there buddy.

Now i will continue with saying how amazingly awesome this song is. I'm hearing some awesome hard core guitar. Everything meshes together very well I'd say if anything (being the strings fan that i am) I'd say add some orchestral in the background a little more.. Perhaps some light cello? Maybe you didn't want to go that direction with this either. None the less I'm liking what I'm hearing here. Good work

Your pal,
Wyldfyre1

Gravey responds:

Thanks buddy. Appreciate the kind words.

Edit: Forgot to mention that there is a full orchestra behind the track emphasizing the vins/violas. They follow the lead in the chorus and create the backing atmosphere throughout the rest of the song. :-)

[Never Stop]

I will disagree with the person below me on the fact that this needs more bass. I think that if you had more bass in this that it would take away from the melody you have here. I think however at 1:01 you should have a backing piano to that really cool sound you got going on adding more to the melodic magic. At 2:22 i think some choir would really bring out this part of the song. I think I'm hearing some french horns (I could be wrong) but that is a good touch.

All in all its a wonderful song, what I've come to expect from you. Its been far to long since I've checked up on ya!

Keep on keeping on my friend.

Hi wyldfyre1!

Well, I can't blame you not checking in on me, cause not much have been going on :P
It is funny you mention the choir, cause I fell like I can hear a choir in my head at some points in the song, and I have really though about adding one. Then I thought I might pack the song too much, as I usually do :P But now I might reconsider :D
And yes they are indeed french horns. I just love the sound of it.

Thanks a lot for the review.

This is very adventurey and fun to listen to. I wanna grab one of my swords and go out and slay dragons and other kinds of crazy beasts. Good work!!!

[Broken Windows BY DJ Mathmatik]

Its not bad. I understand that its a hip hop song so that you feel you shouldn't put in too much instrumental in case someone wishes to lay down vocals over the song itself. However i think in this case it hurt the song as a listen. Its a little repetitive in my opinion. Doesn't make it hard to listen to but it does make you wish there were more instrumentals in this.. Maybe some more synths or something along those lines to make the song itself flow into itself. Maybe for the chorus part of the song instead of taking out the beat all together use some high hat's and lead the beat up to something slightly faster to give it a more full feeling. Heck i would even say add in some strings like a viola in there to fill it in a bit. That's just me though. Its a pretty decent listen it just gets slightly bland as you listen through it. For the most part though good work and keep it up!

Thanks, I appreciate the time you put in to review the song.

[F-777 - Adventure Fantasy]

Very anime-esque buddy.

Got the same wonderful dance feel that we're used to. Yes, and after reading your comments i have to say that I am hearing a lot of the wonderful childhood game recreations in this. Well done

[Meet Me There]

Any good song tells a story as you listen to it. I think you got that right in this. Has a peaceful and innocent feeling at the beginning then transitions to something more dark. Loving the piano in this. I think though that if you had a lone cello backing the piano in maybe a area that's more of a solo some where within this it would bring out more. Then you can go do what you did at 1:52 with the beautiful choir. I do enjoy the abrupt ending. Almost signifies the end of life in my opinion. It was over.. The story was finished. Anyway great work on this I'm adding it to my fav's.

Thank you for a detailed review. Actually, this piece was composed for a suicide scene. You guessed right. :)

[The Golden Coast]

Well hello there old friend =).

This has got some swag for sure to it. reminds me of some of the soundtracks to the earlier grand theft auto's. For that it brings back good memories so thats a good thing. A little repetitive but i'm sure for this kind of music its normal.

Keep it up buddy.

Thanks for the review.

[Fight for our Future]

This has a lot of potential. It just seems to be missing something. I can't even put my finger on what. It just feels almost... empty? I don't know I can't even really explain properly. I think maybe the instruments chosen is whats throwing me off on this. Maybe add a bass line that kinda mimics the beat as well. Anyway its not too bad buddy it could just use a little love.

Treviabot92-Virstein responds:

Well, the only reason the bass line didn't imitate the drumbeat was because I didn't want it to. I felt it wouldn't pop out as much if it did.

Thanks for the review!
