Oddler's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Heavenly Fields]

Mana

Lot of images conjured in my mind when this song looped through twice. I had pictures of your fields as you suggested and I felt it also took me to a star laden night sky to the inside of a Nobles house all the way to Breath of Fire 1 dragon town.

I think you did a good job remixin this one~ One question though. I'm not a musician and not sure of the dialogue. Is the word "Arranged" same as remix or no?

Cosmos8942 responds:

You listened to it twice?? :D:D:D:D

But as to the question you asked...arranged is only in a small part like a remix, but to arrange something is to make it yourself. So I say yes it is like a remix in the fact that it takes a song and adds what you can do with it yourself...but at the same time it is not like a remix due to the fact that arrangements are much of the time not a remix at all.

Really though, it varies depending on the person you speak to.

Thanks for the review! :]

Btw, that is quite the journey for just one song o.o.

[Fable - Rebirth (XB)]

Fantastic

There is a uniqueness in this song. This is a remix correct? Not sure of what but I like your painting of it and choice of instruments. Sounds great!

Cosmos8942 responds:

Uniqueness...I suppose you could put it that way. This is actually a remix of a well-known and liked song off of Fable. I liked it, so I thought that I could so something with it. Loeandbehold it turned into one of my most liked pieces.

Thanks for the review and the main comment.

[Time's Terror (Chrono Cross)]

Was OK

lol @ your Author comment and below poster XD

The song itself is Ok. I've only played Chrono Trigger. All in all a pretty decent song. Grats on top 50.

apzfreak responds:

Thanks man! Yeah, Had I known that when I made it, you can be sure I'd have done something completely else with it. But it's at least enjoyable in this form. Kinda going for a stripped down 90's sci-fi tv show theme kinda feeling.

[Chrono Trigger - Schala Theme]

Chrono trigger :(

I rented that game long ago...became addicted and then forgot about it until I heard the word "Roms and Emulators"...my Rom would always freeze at a certain part of the game. Never could beat it as I don't recognize this song. Maybe my memory is just old but I'm listening to it and it does sound like SquareSoft greatness.

Jabicho responds:

Ouch, I hope you get to play the entire game, it's amazing.
Thanks for the review! =)

[I Forgot To Forget You]

Soft and Romantic

Really lovely song. I think it would sound great at Night beside a slow burning fire and a cup of something delicious.

Very lovely tune. Keep it up.

sorohanro responds:

thanx
it is about love, but about a lost one
originally i wrote that for a theatre play but the show was canceled, so, i put it here

[Now you're a hero]

lol

The beginning was only a single notch below me enjoying it. It progressed more to my liking ,"You managed to beat the wole damn game~" I like that part :)

Although, what do you mean when you say "Maybe you'll watch a video?"

Reachground responds:

That's just a suggestion. But of course you have the choice of doing something else. There's so much to do out there. I've seen people write that they went to the store afterwards. Perhaps you could do that.

[Last Boss (Megaman 6) Acapella]

Doody-doo-doo doooooo~

Kinda weird, kinda cool. I hope this beatboxing and doopy-dee-dooing does not get stuck in my mind for all of megaman eternity.

sonicmega responds:

I hope it doesn't either. There are plenty of other songs out there more worthy of being trapped in that thinkbox of yours.

Like "Now you're a hero", for instance.

[E.F. - Afghan (Boss Battle)]

Sounds Epic

I realize this is just a demo but man...wish the rest of the song was here. It sounds EPIC and BIG. Last boss fight music. Or last movie chase scene in a movie. Extremely good. It's obvious why this is on the Best of the week top 5.

kelwynshade responds:

Thanks. There are about 5 loops for the game right now. Most of them are being turned into somewhat of a full version song just for fun.

It'll be about 3 weeks before the other three are released.

[Built to Last]

Congrats on main page top 5

This song has so much balls in it's scrotum it KICKS ASS. Nothing but RAW metal here. Love hearing original Metal pieces in the Audio Portal. Good job.

Lyrics would be a plus. Nice build up at the start too.

GoreBastard responds:

Whooo! Weekly top 5, I didn't notice that! Awesome as fuck!

Cheers for listening mate. I'm working on getting a vocal version up soon.

[Lufia 2 - Wrath of Sinistrals]

Loved it

First of all: Great job for Top 5 of the week!

It's been so long since I played this game....brings back fond memories. Love the Electric Guitars btw! Nice job~ 9/10 & 5/5

SupraDarky responds:

Woohoo thanks Oddler! I need to play the game again as well. :P
