SoulSecure's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lilium (SessileNomad Cover)]

Huh..

Well, it's good to see you got on the top 5, congrats. It's not really what I expected it to be but I'll give you points for being innovative. The breakdown is good and overall it's a pleasant remix. I'm just sad that there are no vocals and it is a little on the short side.

SessileNomad responds:

win some lose some

[FF8 - Force Your Way ~Rem]

Well

I like it but, you claim that you wanted to make it more powerful. I'm not getting that kind of feel from it. In fact, it feels kind of weaker and a little synthetic. I suggest using a real guitar and maybe a more crunchy bass synth, maybe put some grungy sounding distortion on it. The drums could be the slightest bit louder, I'm not saying how loud they are is bad, I just feel like they could be a little louder.

Anyway, good job and don't stop trying.

Retrodelux responds:

maybe powerful wasnt the correct wording.. either way... simple remake of a awesome song...

[Color This Mad World Remix]

Wow man

I love how everything you touch turns to fucking gold. Great job on the mix. It makes me think of videogame boss music.

maccormack responds:

Haha, oh flattery.
Thanks a lot man.

[Gerudo Desert (TP version)]

Yeah

I get that this is more of an interpretation but I just don't like it. No matter how many times I listen to it I just think you could have done a better job.

DmNt responds:

Don't feel bad if it sucks ass tell me, lol.

I'm gonna redo the whole thing I think. Improve percussion is top priority, and I'd like to add my own original arrangement in there to break off from the game version.

[Echoes From the Empty City]

Nice

It's done pretty well. Don't worry about length, when it comes to this sort of thing, length is good. Good to hear someone else using live instrumentation and Audacity on here besides me.

Now, for what I picture:
It sounds like green. Green and dark where my strings are pulled back and almost broken. Corroded and grimey. There are fans blowing my hair and getting grime and soot all over my face. I can't see much anymore, there's too much shit on my eyes. I knocked over a clock in the darkness. I think it broke.

Kogasu responds:

Yeah, I just don't want people getting bored of it hehe but I guess if you're interested enough in it you can listen to the entire thing.

Nice visualization too hehe. I always wonder what other people visualize on different songs so yeah that's just kewl to me.

Thanks for your review! :D

[Icyy]

ARE YOU SHITTIN' ME?!

People think this sucks? They can go to hell yo, I thought it was straight. I love it mang you keep up the good work.

I picture like a frozen machine or something. Like a machine that doesn't need heat to work and is covered in ice. Yeah?

SeeD419 responds:

Well at least someone out there understands me ;)

Much love.

[Anal Violator]

Slightly...

The song, I thought, was pretty ok. I feel like I've heard it before. I did like the beginning but other than that it seems average and unsatisfactory. Also the "Your services are no longer required" bit was slightly annoying.

superuberinsaneausm responds:

thanks!

[Floating Skies]

Finally

Man, so many people on here upload stuff and call it "Ambient" but it's definitely not. Now THIS is ambient music! I really can't complain about it. The drums were at a perfect volume and everything was well mixed. The only problem I had with it was that it was rather short, but that makes you want to listen to it again so, good strategy. I don't usually like giving things a 10/10 but you deserve it mate.

blacknote responds:

Hey man, I'm glad you liked it! I did have a longer version somewhere, but this was all I could find.

Although as you said, I guess it gives it more of a repetitive listening value. Thanks for reviewing!
