Oddler's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Saving Face Machine (Demo)]

Vocals need work

I don't think the lyrics to the song are bad. I'm so glad you posted them in your Author Comment because I hate when authors don't. It's harder to get into the song for the first listen without them. Although, the vocals aren't as sharp on-point as I'd like...

Are there two vocalists? The guy saying, "I had a dream about YOU" a second vocalist? I don't think his voice is too bad. It songs like some old Seattle Grunge if you ask me.

Gunshy responds:

thanks.
1) lyrics: a) i've come to grudgingly accept having to post them... u wouldn't know wtf i was saying if i didn't, and probably wouldn't care to try anyway. b) i have a lazy mouth and fucked up teeth.
2) two vocalists? i think that's a compliment. only one of me.

[Castlevania 4 *Monster Forest*]

I've played most Castlevanias

I have much trouble remembering what this sounds like. It sounds O.K...

[Inu Yasha: The Movie Trailer]

Get down it's a bomb

Kinda funny...but I was hoping for some music, lol.

Not bad for a movie trailer. Sounds like it could be funny...I'm not sure if this is real movie or just a fun trailer. It sounds pretty funny though. I would definitely think about working this audio into a Flash movie with visuals. Would be pretty funny.

[(NUB)Fragile Chaos]

Nubstick

I'm not sure what Stepmania is but this song sounds really cool. I LOVE the echoing part of the song. Sorry, not sure what instrument that is but it gives this tune a really sweet feeling. Nice job :)

nubbinownz responds:

that echoing you hear is a grand piano ran through several different filters

[Lufia Last Duel 1 and 2]

Superb

Hey , nice job! Not sure if you still check up on your Reviews but I had to leave one for this. Wasn't this two songs????

[Castle of Tears]

You went all out didnt you

Six and a half minutes of video game pwnage. I listened to the entire thing; was that good. Nice job, man :D

[Canon Rock!]

Sounds good

Sounded pretty good. Very light style rock music version. No complaints :)

Nightwasp responds:

good, good. Thanks!

[Great Giant Rock]

It's different

Not many folks use bagpipes in their tunes in here. I like how you're doing something a little different than the rest.

Around 1:10 there was like another set of bagpipes maybe that made the song , in my opinion a bit too chaotic. The drums that come in + the bagpipes and the new instrument made things a little everywhere to me.

It's pretty good work but I would switch up a few things for sure about it. don't want to make this too long or anything.

djt820 responds:

Aha. Those are actually spiccato strings around 1:10. Well, this is more of a test but Im sure going to use the bagpipes in many different ways now. Thanks for the review!

[Lyrics- Sound Of Love - Yun]

Not bad

I'm not a huge rap fan but I'll review this unbiasedly as possible.

First off the bat my ears were assaulted when your voice came in so hard and quick without any music to introduce it first. My mind instantly thought without me having to think....vote zero. I look down below and some people actually did but I forced myself to listen to the entire song. You did a pretty good job on the song after the first assault so I dropped my first thought and gave it a better chance.

Think about making the lyrics come in a few seconds later though.

[Surrounded In Mystery]

Yeah, "kinda of"

You know...it kind of sounds like music from maybe Final Fantasy VII. I think you did a good job making this. I can feel some of the mystery that gets evoked through your notes but there's something in the music that kind of dispels it a bit resulting in the "kind of" phenomenon lol

Anyway, 8/10
