OpenLight's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Out Of Twilight]

CRAP, SORRY! I haven't been able to check out your stuff in so long. Man, is this a pleasant sound to hear now.

You have such a unique sound and are using some sounds I remember using back in the day. Probably not the exact instruments, but similar enough to bring me back on that level.

This took a really weird turn, but I love really weird turns. Keep it up. Please.

Birdinator99 responds:

No sweat, broski! Glad you like it! Always nice to have a nostalgia boost, eh?

I'm not sure if I really wanted this song to go in the direction it did, but it's all in the past now. I've got more ideas! More on the way in time.

I'll drop you a review later today as thanks!

[Almost Home]

I'm at a loss for words honestly.

I want to hate how good this sounds because of my last song's shortcomings in comparison... but it's impossible to. Great track.

[ZXF12 - Lovebot]

For what it is, it's good. This style is not my cup of tea haha but I like the direction of it. The melody is a bit plain throughout, but it shines through occasionally. If you were to use the synths from this and work with making a more noticeable melody, you could make something outstanding. Good job though on this, I like it for what it is.

[Lighten Up (Even Moar)]

Nice! Harsh mixing and a bit repetitive, but not TOO repetitive, and the mixing is not all that bad. The composition gets a bit basic at parts and there are a few synths that get too loud when compared to others, but overall I like this piece. Keep at it! I look forward to seeing more from you in the future.

[Windstruck [8bit]]

I'm giving this 4.5 stars for one reason: This shows incredible potential, as far as composition is concerned. I see that you're pretty new to composing, at least as far as uploading to Newgrounds is concerned, so I'll just say that I think you should keep going at it. You clearly have a passion for this, and I think you can make some great stuff in the future.

Cadrean responds:

Hey, thanks for the feedback!

Yeah, I am fairly new to composing and mastering. I've gone through a majority of my life being around and playing music on various instruments, but only recently I've delved into audio software. Music theory is on my side, however technology not so much. I have a lot of work ahead of me for sure.

[Fleeing the Hidden Palace]

Very nice. I love this track! It's mixed very well too. I have no criticisms of this. Great job

Krichotomy responds:

Haha, that looks almost like a Food123 review. :) Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy it.

[Sound of Creation]

I love this! Here's a weird question, but can you send me the flp file for this? I'd like to take a look at it.

Great music as always. Keep it up!

Troisnyx responds:

I will. PM me, and we'll talk about how to send this to you. Thanks for listening!

[Cat Trvp - Space Cat]

Great to see a new song by you! This is awesome ha. I hope to get some nice sounding instruments someday soon, and each time I hear a song by you I realize that I really do need some better stuff lol. Great job.

Enteroar responds:

Ty!

[Grinner Theme]

Very creative. I really hope this continues to be well received on here! Great instruments can go a long way, but for once, it seems someone got their hands on these synths who actually had the ability to compose something awesome.

Benmode responds:

Thanks, I hope so toooo haha.
Ah, there are plenty of great composers on this site!

[Depths]

Hey, you should let me know what synths you're using haha. I'm looking for a better library of instruments. Great loop. It deserves a much higher rating.

drew6464 responds:

I'm struggling with instrumental/synth choice too. I've abandoned far too many potential projects because nothing I had could make the instruments quite right. It seems that we're due for an exchange!
