FRAYDO's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Night at the launch base]

Nice.

Would this by any chance be for the next Sonic Shorts Volume? I would imagine this as a menu theme, or possibly even a sneaking scene. I don't know lol.

Aside from that, I like this. Pretty calm. Easy to listen to. Good work!

Ragezero responds:

There is this project 20 made by Sonic Paradox at the moment, requesting a lot of flash, pictures, and music :) I hope it is in that, but I haven't had any confirm yet :)

[Megaman 8 - Stage select Mix]

Peaceful.

Megaman 8 sure had great music. This is really calm and peaceful. Something I could listen to all day.

I notice that you replaced what would be the bass with the piano. While I'm a bit disappointed with no bass I just love the sound of the piano. Adds to the tranquil atmosphere.

~1:12
I love this. You added your own original part to this. And it loops rather nicely.

Wonderful.

YanX responds:

Yeah i forgot too put it but i'll do it right now ^^

[Piranha plants dream of raving]

Good!

Very unique idea for a remix. What simply started as a lullaby is now a rave.
I like it! And it loops quite nicely.

Good song!

[Mega Man V(Game Boy)-Mercury]

Alright.

I remember this game. In fact, I still play it from time to time.

I do feel that certain instruments are louder than others. I can barely hear the bass under everything else.

~0:07
Something I notice. Not really liking the volume changes there, as well as throughout other parts of the song.

Aside from that, good song. Brought back memories.

[Gates_Of_Oblivion [Box-Killa]]

Respect.

Very nice song you have here. I like it!

The chord progressions strike me as a bit odd. Even odder, I find myself liking it because of that.

If it's one thing I like about this, it's the phaser effects you used throughout the whole song. It adds that variety, which is great.

~2:31
This caught me by surprise. At this part I believed I was listening to a different song. I love the Japanese sound here. My favorite part of this song definitely.

Great song. Cheers!

[Robots!!! March!!!!!!!!!]

Happy Robot Day 2010!

I see what you're going for here. I can visualize an army of robots marching, though at the same time I can also visualize being inside a robot factory at the assembly line.

If you really wanted to get that marching atmosphere you could have added something extra. Perhaps some sound to indicate that the robots are marching, like robotic footsteps.

Also, it would have looped perfectly if not for that short pause at 1:00.

It's a good song believe me. I'm just not getting a clear picture of robots marching. Nonetheless, good Robot Day submission!

[OOTHQ: The Windmill Hut]

Beautiful.

As I writing this review there is a storm raging outside.

Good balance of instruments. I can hear everything clearly from the accordion to the strings.

~1:00
I love how it expands into this. It started with just a piano, accordion and tambourine, then you introduced more instruments. Very nice.

Again, better than your original version. Good work!

[Orchestral Theme 3]

Epic.

Listening to this has put me in a different world. When I close my eyes I see myself in that world. A world engulfed in flames. I'm seeing an entire army of beasts and demons marching. You sir, have succeeded in setting that atmosphere.

There's something I notice while they are marching. Those chants are a nice touch. Certainly add to the evil atmosphere.

~2:31
This is where I see the hero entering the scene. This hero is descending, almost as if an angel, with weapon in hand. He sees what lies ahead of him. He knows what he must do and what the stakes are.

~3:10
Insert epic battle here.

This is truly a masterpiece. I can tell a lot of hard work went into this. You have earned a 10 from me.

Gravey responds:

Thank you very much. I'm glad you found the piece so wonderful to listen to.

[OOTHQ: The Lost Woods]

Great!

Love the bird sounds used for the beginning. Really puts you in the Lost Woods.

I love the way you progress throughout the song. You started simple, then you added this and that, then you add even more. Before I know it it's a full orchestra!

~1:46
My favorite part, simply because you introduced an ocarina. Shortly after, you bring back the birds. Beautiful.

Compared to the original, this was much better. Cheers!

[Megaman 3 Main Theme (DJ XeMeX Remix)]

Good.

Nothing made with a MIDI could sound this good.

Awesome beginning. Love the buildup to 0:25. The thing I love about this mix is how you mix it up. Way to keep things fresh and not repetitive.

~3:42
My favorite part. I love how you go back to the original at the end. Reminds the listener what it was at first.

If this is what you do with the Megaman 3 intro, I would love to see what other Megaman remixes you can do.

CAK3MAT3 responds:

thx for that review man ^^
