OliRO's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[changing (for the better) (NGAUC Knockout Round)]

That's pretty solid lyrics! For some reason the back melody reminds me of the song in Chrono Trigger 19 Arris Dome theme. There a melancholy air to it.

Vatriox responds:

thank you so much! I'm happy you enjoyed it!

[7-404]

I say the most productive thing you did on this piece is not giving up. I totally feel you there, it took me a week and a half to really start getting productive on my track. I wanted to give up a couple times, but every time a little voice inside was telling me to push on. I saved earlier attempts into two other projects and I kept on wanting to change for those instead. I ended up sticking to my original idea, which lead me out of the rut.

Your song is minimal but it's super swell. It gives me Animal Crossing vibes. I really love the composing method you used. I might try it up. I give you five stars for being an absolute boss at not giving up. Cheers mate!

[Veneficaar's Palace (Inside)]

Ohhhh that intro is right up my alley! Spooky and gloomy! Reminds me that Halloween is approaching once again. The low bass hum really helps supporting the emotions the rest of the instruments convey. Talking about emotions I think you did an amazing job at making the instruments sing sorrow and melancholy. Great job!

Gothorlagee responds:

I'll have to update it later this month since this is an entry for the NGUAC knockout round, but
I want to try and make it a little bit louder. It's just a bit too quiet for me atm.

[New Guac]

I love it! With only minutes to spare before the deadline I think the mix and mastering is well made. you did a great job balancing everything on the spectrum. I love the little robot synth, I think it fits very well in the retro style you went for. Well made!

Stargame responds:

Thank you! This was a huge deal being able to finish this thing. I thought I couldn't do it when I first started. I really appreciate the review, I've been nervous about how well this one would be received.

[BreakingPoint]

Sick melody! Did you play it on a guit or sampled it? The main riff reminds me of Prince of Persia Warrior Within. It's very well made, good job!

HighBallers responds:

Maaaan thank you. I appreciate the review. Yep that's me playing. Ha I can see that, great compliment

[Speedrun (NGUAC KO entry)]

I love the buildup, it think it's well balanced. The rest I'm less a fan of personally but I can see you have experience in producing music. Good entry my man!

Ackee39 responds:

Thank you for the kind words! The buildup is definitely more polished, since making them took up most of the time i spent on this song. Regardless, im glad you enjoyed!!

[No Days After Tomorrow Came]

That's a well deserved frontpage man!

I'm seeing you evolve and you sure don't waste any time in doing so.
Keep it up! : )

LostChronology responds:

Thanks mate!

Yeah it's juggling with time to evolve in all the different forms of art which I am doing lol! xD

[Console Organics]

I love the violin! It has an oldschool french vibe to it :)

VariableGROfficial responds:

[December Sunrise]

VariableGROfficial responds:

[[Castlevania 4] Falling Down the Falls Like a True Belmont]

Masterfully done!
