prog17's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Final Destination [Hafdwn Mix]]

have to agree with prismo

the piano might have been just too long (there's a line between good and overkill). On the plus side I loved how the actual song snuck in gradually. It made for an overall nice piece of audio but it might have been just too much piano for me at least.

[Energy - [viz]]

I like it

Something about just doesn't seem to fit, most likely the voice (its good but sometimes seems out of place). Everything else screams "fantastic!" The two guys before me are definatley just trying to be annoying or sound like they know what they're talking about. It just sounds like babbiling to me. I like this piece a lot and hope the best for your future works.

DJ-VIZ responds:

yeah the voice is a bit out there...but I felt it was needed, maybe I overused i, but what can you do? Anyway, I just ignore reviewers like that...just iritates me how they think they know music. Thanks for the rev!

[ParagonX9 - Chaoz Impact]

worth the wait as always

fantastic, nothing bad anywhere. Here's hoping the next one doesn't take so long for inspiration :P.

[Tetris A (RemiXXed)]

well that last guy is nuts

that being said, this is great. Love tetris remixes and A isn't changed a whole lot (I see type B getting changed though) so this is nice to hear

[~EnV~Heaven{Preview}]

Hey like how it evolved

Your new version is obviously better but this has it's own little piece of cake for itself. I like it.

[Kaiz- Ninja Knight]

I think it's great

It's really cool to hear a song that is so basic and simple (13 sounds, but so well used) but so darn good to listen too. I like this a lot. The synth at 1:20 didn't throw me as much as the last guy's review lead me to believe so I'm glad. A nice little piece of audio to come back to the portal after a short break (haven't come in a few days). Nice job!

3rd review, 10/10, 5/5. A nice a clean piece of music. Very enjoyable

nightsurfermusic responds:

thanks! Glad you thought it was good my friend :)

[The Great Dragon's Nest]

Nifty

you didn't change much here, which is both good and bad. Windwaker's music was very pure and simple so it should (in my opinion) be kept as such, but at the same time a major change wouldn't have hurt you here. That said I LOVE how you focused more on the background instruments of the song more than the flute for this remix. I think that made the song for me. I also like how you remix the titles of the songs too. Nice, nice job

Charem responds:

Yes, I agree, that flute was already lovely how it was...I'm a real sucker for flutes, so I left it alone, not wanting to mess it up or anything. <3

A little more change? Yeah, might have been a good idea...I don't know, I kept getting the feeling, 'Don't go too far with this, or you'll ruin what you have.' I tend to listen to my gut feelings, so...I didn't stamp down what was established, for the most part. =P

Thanks for the review!

[Gravity Breakdown]

Gotta give respect here

If there is any game that has hard music to remix it's Megaman games because the music is already all techno-y and electronic. Remixing any of that music is difficult but when done right, it ends up phenomenally. I love this, I judge a remix on 1) How well it maintains the original beat and music 2) How well it changes the music to make it original and 3) overall sound and tune (as if this wasn't a remix at all). You nailed all topics. Major congratualtions!

Charem responds:

Thank you! ^^ #1 on your list is very important to me too. I suppose I don't so much as 'remix' as I do 'enhance' half of the time with my songs. =)

[AlxEllis - Tron]

Nice song

It sounds a little repetitive but its nice, has some good bass and synth and I liked it. Oddly enough, it loops remarkably well. Overall a nice but forgettable piece.

1st review, 9/10, 5/5. Sounds really nice and loops well (probably and accident) but I will probably forget this song by the end of the day. Nothing special about it

AlxEllis responds:

Cool thanks for reviewing yes some of my songs are a bit repetitive lol

[The Burning City]

very well done

Yeah I'm agreeing with everyone thus far, totally could be used as background music. Would be great in a movie of any dramatic proportion. Fantastic job.

4th review, 10/10, 5/5. not much to be said, it's great!
