OpenLight's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Warp Speed]

The timing seems off with a lot of the notes, but I'm not just rating this on how professional it is. This song seems inspired and that's important for making good music of any kind. (What I mean by "inspired" is you have something your basing this song off of and you aren't just throwing down notes that sound good.)

Anyway, I think this shows some great potential. You'll have to let me know when you put out more tracks!

[Got Me Good]

I like what you've got going on here. It's incredibly energetic, and the singing isn't too bad either. I think if you made this 100% electronic it'd sound good, but the singing sounds great (which is rare for Newgrounds, trust me). I'd say if you were to add some effect to the singing occasionally it'd be a bit more unique, even if it was just an odd eq or delay.

I'll have to remember to check your stuff out in the future. This is pretty great.

no-ma-designs responds:

Thanks so much, man! Great to hear you enjoyed it!

[Responsibilitiez of Mau5]

The mixing is a bit off, but despite the fact that you're new at this the song is actually pretty good. It's not what most people on Newgrounds like, and for that reason I like it even more ha. Keep up making tracks and set a goal to improve a bit with each new song and I'm sure you'll be making even more awesome tracks in no time!

nickmannawar responds:

Thanks for the good feedback! I like the idea of improving bit by bit a lot!

[The Day The Sun Exploded]

Beautiful

Your synths, they're fantastic. I must have them all haha.

The song is so well composed, and your EQ effects and fades and such made it much better.

I'm skipping through for the sake of time, but I'm definitely about to burn this to a CD.

Your drums fit very well with your style and this song.

OH CRAP. I Skipped to around 4:35 and... this is just amazing.

I can't rate this well enough. I'd say this deserves high recognition.

RetromanOMG responds:

Haha, nice to know if wound up on a CD. Also, on the matter of recognition, it originally was getting 0bombed, so I'm glad that people who gave it a chance really liked it.

[Where Angels Live]

Amazing

I might have to remix sometime, once I get synths as crazy as yours of course haha.

Keep making music.

JQiscool responds:

Thanks dude
you can remix it whenever you want
just PM me when you are
synths are crazy i know
like it that way
Thanks for the review!

[Journey (Concert)]

Oh wow

Man you're so lucky. I'd love to conduct one of my songs. Problem is I don't have many orchestral songs...

Anyway, great song, great performance.

samulis responds:

Keep working on your stuff... I am lucky in the fact that I am still a student and that I send my songs occassionally to my band teacher... one day he told me he liked a piece and wanted the band to play it.

Thanks for the comment. :)

[The BANG ZOOM]

YEAAAH

This is the smoothest upbeat song I've ever heard. I love it.

[Enteroar - Everest]

Awesome!

The only problem I see with this is the bassy synth around 1:50 is too loud by a bit. By all means, make it audible, but make it supplementary rather than primary.

Other than that, I love the melodies and the beats. Keep it up!

Enteroar responds:

Thanks for advice, I'll try that :)

[Things Alike (Loop)]

Very loud and heavily distorted

BUT very good. I like this. I think if you were to expand this to be a full length song and edit the mixing so that each instrument is fully audible (not the same volume, just audible) then this would be one of my favorite Newgrounds Audio Portal submissions.

Great job so far!

[Halloween intro !omi]

Woop woop woop!

Awesome song, omi, as always. You should expand this one!

Nice job!
