SoTJake's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[[Dubstep] Dubstep]

The Headphones unplugged sound, though.

[Be gay in the manliest way (TBAP REMASTER)]

TheBetterAudioPortal responds:

No idea what that means.

[Doghouse project Part 4]

Funky vibes! I can only repeat what was said before: The mix is professional. Only thing I would have liked to hear would have been a real climax but that is something I miss in the dance genre overall so that is no complaint on the track but on the genre ;). I especially love the vocal samples - those really make this track special for me. I can only say that this is a great song that is really professional and exceptional for Newgrounds. Good job :)

[BOOM - Firework Defence Unit Main Theme]

Happy, whacky tune that really fits the game and the overall theme of fireworks and faire. I love the synth that starts at 0:31, it really gives the song a nice edge. Other than that it is unfortunately a little bit repetative but I guess that is not too bad as it is a theme song. So overall a really nice song, good job! :)

Lyserdigi responds:

yeah.. repetetive and short , to the point...
imho, game tunes are kinda like that... especially in these kinda of short flash games..
the tune itself has to be short enough, and highly compressed, so that it doesn't take too many megabytes space from the project. and because of the tunes looping nature, one doesn't have much "space" to compose anything too complex... and so on and so forth ^^

[(F) _Reztus_]

Nice ambient track, I like the concept, it feels like one is exploring an old destroyed chapel or sorts. Two remarks though:

1.) There is not much variation in the melody

2.) The white noise in the end is a little too loud/ a little too long. The length would be ok if it was not as loud and vice versa.

Overall a nice ambient track, though. Good job :)

Fubaka responds:

Well, there isn't supposed to be too much variation in the melody. That's kind of the point.

To each his own regarding the white noise. This is another song I've listened to hundreds of times at this point.

I hope you'll give the album a listen too. There's a lot to be heard there.

Thanks for reviewng!

[typical newgrounds production]

Needs more dubstep elements but overall you really caught everything ever on Newgrounds in one song.

[~Echo~ Where Are You? (Instrumental Loop)]

I absolutely fell in love with this tune as soon as I listened to it. I also like the vocal (synth?) that reminds me of your earlier tracks with Fijiwiji. Only complaint would be, that the track is way to short, because it really achieves its apex from 1:05 on, so I would like to hear more of the part after that. Anyways, good job. Keep it up :)

[NG Deserted Island Thing]

This is witty and also well orechestrated I think. I really like it. Also the creativity is strong with this one ;)

w00tw00 responds:

thanks lol ;)

[Daft Punk - Ur Gay Ur Gay Ur Gay (acapella)]

This work may not be used by anyone.

[Our Last Hope]

I love your combination of electric sounds and orchestral music. The problem I have with most "epic orechestral music" tracks is, that however original the composition might be to me 90% of them sound pretty much the same with different chord progressions. This song however, is as unique as it gets. It combines epic orchestral music with a catchy DnB-videogame track, that changes into complete epicness after 2:08. The arpeggiate harp combined with the driving tune from the first half plus the Yoi-synth really makes the second half the cherry on a musical cake of epicness, that really fits the theme of Boss music. To me this song is already one of, if not THE winner of this contest. Great job :) ( Wow I really got emotional writing this review)

Mattashi responds:

Wow thank you so much for your review SoTJake :)
There are some really awesome entries out there so far and I'm pretty sure there are many more on the way before the deadline! I don't really care about winning, it's just fun to participate in these kind of contests and hearing what everyone can come up with :) Everyone deserves 1st place for joining.
