CyprusX's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Live for Tonight -=MMD=-]

You dont know how happy I am

You dont know how happy I become when I find people like you on newgrounds . It's bad however that newgrounds does not appreciate such music .
I love the lyrics , the progression , the vocals , the music , everything .
My only grudge is on the mixing , it takes alot out of your voice

Keep it up.
Newgrounds needs more musicians like you

[Morrowind [Ocarina]]

I voted 1 , and here is why .

I am surprised , and baffled at the score of this submission . No offense , but I found it extremely weak to be honest. Even though , I like Morrowind , and the soundtrack is amazing , This track is inadequate to pass for a serious submission .
All I hear is a single melody , done with a bad ocarina instrument . No background symphony , not ambience , no nothing , If it were an actual ocarina and not just another soundfont instrument , you would've gotten higher points , but this . Sorry , it is simply not enough . Try again .

Ocarina-Kid responds:

Dude I appreciate the honesty and I too don't think it deserved such high rating. It is an actual ocarina and unfortunately that's all I'm capable of playing. I understand that it's simple and there's much more talented people and music out there (the amount of talent on here is beyond amazing). I upload songs not for ratings or reviews but cos I enjoy doing it, everyone has the right to dislike it and that doesn't bother me in the slightest. Just a guy with a slightly nerdy hobby. Thanks for the review.

[Whatever Floats Your Islands]

Eh , I am going to be honest.

I am really not very impressed , because
1st. it's not a remix.
2nd. it sounds a lot like the original. just different instruments.
3rd . you can atleast mention that it's a song from a Kirby game. Not cool.

GenoWhirled responds:

How is it not a remix? I'm not bragging or anything, but I really did a lot with the song. Just listen to more than one loop and you'll hear what I mean. And yeah, it IS supposed to somewhat resemble the original. Nothing wrong with that... Also, I did mention this is from a Kirby game. It's just in the description, and not the author comments.

I appreciate constructive criticism and all, but man, you guys are ridiculous sometimes!

[~SM64 - Road to Bowser~]

AMAZING

This is amazing . However it needs better mastering. And I felt that the saw instrument at 2:00 is out of place.

VGSongbird responds:

The instrument, or the melody? I would really like to know, because that was the original bridge I put in.

Thanks for supporting me!

[Character Voice Demo]

Damn

Seriously , curse the assholes that zero bombed this , this is awesome!

[-Legend-]

I don't know if you're 15

But I am 20 and I sure as hell can't do anything of this caliber.
Congratulations , I guess you are a genius!

Step responds:

Wow man thanks! Yep, I am 15, but I don't know what you're talking about, your stuff's really good!

Thanks a lot for the review, I'm glad you liked it.

[Tranquility <-(FTA)->]

This is what it's title suggest.

Very calming and relaxing. The piano part is very nicely executed , however I feel that the violin lead is kind of weirdly modulated. It could be your instrument though , perhaps a different violin patch would do the job perfectly. When the rest of the instruments pick up near the end is just beautiful .
Hey maybe we could try collaborating on something or exchange vst 's if you're up to it!

FaeryTaleAdventurer responds:

Thank you for reviewing! Yeah, I dunno what it could be about the violin, but I just use a vibrato specific one. There's a non-vibrato one as well and I have thought of maybe using them together to add more realism to the performance.

And a collab or vst exchange sounds like a neat idea, I just need to learn about brining VSTs to GarageBand first...

-FTA

[Dipadosus [HD]]

It has potential.

The melody , I like the instrument you chose for your lead . Cant say the same for the bass though.
I feel the song would benefit from an assortment of hi=hat rythms and a snare. It feels like it lacks some dynamic ,

It has potential.

highdrake responds:

I completely agree. Thanks for taking the time to give your thoughts. I'm actually in the process of updating this song.

[DBZ Vegeta's Theme [Remix]

Cool!

I finally found another one that likes bruce faulconer's music!

I made an ssj3 kind of remix as well .

Onto the original song itsself , You have the main melody going on , but since it's your remix , you could've added some more of your elements within.
