LuckyDee's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Françaix]

It's funny how the story breathes an entire extra dimension into the music. I mean the song itself is already very well-crafted but as with the game it's meant for - as is the case with just about every song that sticks with you throughout your life, I've found - it's the context you are in when the song features in your existence that really breathes life to it. Respect.

Too short! Lot of potential here, go for it!

[Hope In Augmentation (part 1)]

Very, very impressive. Great voice range, excellent storytelling, spot on editing in terms of timing of voices and SFX. A couple of moments of musical support may or may not have improved it, but a bit of juice in the overall volume department definitely would have. Keep it up!

JoshDytonVO responds:

Thanks dude. I appreciate the support and feedback.

[Loser Boy]

Pretty good stuff! Big Weezer vibe, although the mix sounds a bit... I don't know, empty. Can't really put my finger on it. Maybe it's because the Weezer in it is so strong, I miss the wall of guitar sound that's generally in their songs.

wobwobrob responds:

I think we were going for subtlety. Just a quirky little indie pop band. Only 3 of us and I'm not the best guitarist so I'd never reach Weezer's quality of sound.

I do love Weezer though. I currently play bass in a Weezer cover band called Geezer! We were due to play Camden Underworld for Halloween but COVID 😑😑

[Where Are We Going]

Very triphop, including the melancholy feel - add some vocals into the mix and you'd have a total killer on your hands

5TanLey responds:

Thanks for your thoughts :)

[ISOLATION]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH DAT GUITAR
The dirty, grimy wall of distortion with the semi-dissonant chords and the band-saw-like attack <3 <3 <3

EDIT: OHSHITOHSHIT AND THEN THE SOLO KICKS IN *o*

[Life (Escape from the Void)]

Great production, mate - lot's of stuff going on in there, but it's all balanced and supporting each other and expertly mixed. Big up.

SkankyMojo responds:

Wow thank you!

[Danii the Umbreon Theme]

Ok, this screams video game and no two ways about it - I'd say something mobile. Nice melody and great choice of melodic instruments. The added live guitar brings in a beautiful extra dimension. Only thing that stands out are the drums: rhythms are great, but the choice of samples somehow seems... off. As if you're sourcing melody and rhythm from two different operating systems, if you know what I mean. Especially the snare sounds very sharp and a little outdated in comparison to the melodic parts. But very good en result either way. [R4R]

[Gimme Back My Cat (Her 11 mk.II)]

Very impressive (especially now that I know how you made it :D )
Do an original track like this and the scale may end up needing another star...

[WHERE'S WHITE]

Amazing tension
