OneWhoListens's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bucolic Town]

This is cute, and I feel the atmosphere.
If I could add a small bit of constructive criticism, the synths feel slightly too "synthy" for the down-home atmosphere that I feel like this piece represents. IMHO a slight shift towards more harmonics in the lead voice would add a lot.
But it's still solid.

BusanBlack responds:

Thanks homie. Yeah I got you. I make music through the feels (somewhat) so Its not quite on target with the instrumentation. But I definitely wanted to have some more harmonics, but I kept coming up blank and I was trying to get the song out for Jamuary. =/ Ill do better!

[An Abyssal Odyssey]

Odyssey indeed. This piece took me on a journey.

Supermouk responds:

I'm so glad to hear!!! Thanks for taking the time to listen, especially considering the length.

[MELODY I GOT FROM MY DREAM]

I like this, a tune from a dream is like an exposition from the soul.

<3 <3 <3

[Because We Miss You]

A wonderful and moving tribute.

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Thank you, OneWhoListens, for staying true to your name <3

[We Need a Hero]

Definitely was thinking "knight" and "pageantry" when I heard this. Inspiring stuff.

Bosa responds:

yes, it definitely has those old tournament vibes

thank you sm for listening, i’m glad it inspired you!

[Escape Velocity]

Vibes of dimrain47 and paragonx9...it's like I never left 2007.
Good stuff!

TsukiStuffs responds:

dimrain and paragon are literally my two biggest musical inspirations and practically my idols man, you have no clue how overjoyed i am to hear that

[Lost Memories, Forgotten Paths (Lost Woods Remix)]

I like the mood! It's a little tame in parts, but the way the instruments play together is fun.

Jxudo responds:

Thank you!

[His Royal High Horse | 2023]

This is great! The feel matches the picture perfectly too.

Bertn1991 responds:

Thanks so much! The artwork was generated with Stable Diffusion~

[Elves under Attack]

"...and yet it was but one and not the greatest of the hosts that Mordor now sent forth."

Perfect high fantasy music.

KevinMueller responds:

Thanks :) This was actually inspired by Howard Shores work on lotr / hobbit. ;)

[Prismatics ( remade )]

Fun stuff. A little melancholy? Interesting and new.

Cons:
- The distortion on the main riff might be slightly strong (imo)
- The autotuned voice near the end felt a bit incongruent
- The piece does start to grow repetitive after a while

Pros:
- Fresh, new, and different sound! Always exciting to run across something novel, especially if it's quality.
- The "old-timey" feel is fun
- Makes for amazing chill out music

MichaelConstanza responds:

I was thinking the voice was weird. Which main riff and what time and what parts seem repetitive and ill fix it ^^
