OpenLight's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Goblin Feast (WIP)]

Awesome

This reminds me of so much. For example, I'm near positive that orchestral stuff was the same instrument from Runescape haha. Anyway, always freaking awesome.

PainasaurusRex responds:

Thank you as always, you posted this 11 months ago, but I responded like a boss

[Eric Freeman - IDK]

Very creative

About piano solos, I've not done many. One song (called Breathless) is entirely piano melody (though there is harmony as well with other instruments), but it has something that could be considered a solo. Essentially, it's all arpeggios, but check it out and maybe you can get an idea of how to make one for a more upbeat song lol.

Nice job

EricFreeman responds:

lol kk, checking

[Nitrodroid (DJ Prex)]

Pretty nice

Haha I just got your message. I'm not 100% yet, but I'm feeling much better. Thanks, haha.

Anyway, this definitely has some funk to it. It's probably rated down because of the TTS robot, since everyone knows it's from FL Studio, but the melody itself is pretty great. I'd suggest uploading a clean version of this and adding a couple of harmonic layers. The harmony is the most important addition in this case.

Nice job!

PainasaurusRex responds:

good to hear from you, and and yeah, the robot its sweet though XD anyway, I don't fully understand what you mean by harmonic layers. However, I will possibly, maybe record my voice for the vocals, but doubtful. Well I'll work on it some more and repost it when it's updated.

[Insanctuary - A Decision]

Hey

I've seen you reviewing some of my friend RetromanOMG's songs, so I figured I'd check you out. I don't regret doing so. This song is pretty amazing.

The reverb gets to be too much in places, but it's necessary for the feel you were going for. Other than that, the whole song is amazing. Nice job

Insanctuary responds:

Lol. His songs are awesome. :P Glad you liked my music man. More is soon to come. ^-^.

[Golden Godzillatron, Activate!]

Nice

Haha it's crazy how much better you're getting. Your songs are becoming much more passionate sounding, yet you could easily make a song now without trying that was popular. This song is awesome, and I love a lot of the effects you put in this.

[Looking Back- 2010]

Calm and subtly crazy

Pretty good! I half expected a compilation, and I'm glad this turned out to be something original.

If need help or tips ever, let me know!

[Eric Freeman - Spaceship Ride]

This is not rated well enough.

I love the delay effects and stereo separation at the beginning of this song. I'm seriously very, very surprised it's as good as it is with such a poor rating. It's energetic and fun to listen to. KEEP IT UP!

EricFreeman responds:

Thanks man! And yeah, NG has a habit of voting 0 on every song out there. If you don't have a strong fan base to help vote it back up then good songs get lost in the abyss sometimes. Thanks for listening though! I appreciate your feedback. :)

[DJ XeMeX - CABAL]

WHoaoaoaohaohwahaoaaa

I listened to this on your Facebook page first, and I'm still freaking amazed. This is so great haha.

CAK3MAT3 responds:

thanks man ...glad u liked :) ..ill make more :3

[Waterstrider]

Wow

I love the primary instrument so much. I wish there were something like it that I could find in FL Studio, haha.

Nice though! For a loop, I'd suggest not using fading effects. It feels a lot like it should be a clip from a longer song with those effects haha.

gingerspine responds:

Thanks for the review and the suggestion!
I wanted to make it longer but I got bored/couldn't think of what else to do with it...
:p

[collab demo]

Hey

Haha this isn't what you wanted me to use for the collab, was it? Lol if so I'll mess around with it for sure. Just send the flp file if possible.
