Daydream-Anatomy's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Madness: The Trial of Lucy]

Really like the lead in the intro, and the vocal sounds. Pretty mean and intense build-ups there. Like the orientalish pluck melody. It felt like it was gonna have something really intense after the build up, but it kept itself pretty contained after the intro, lots of tension. Great madness track. ^^

DESHIEL responds:

Thanks man! Your review cheered me up!

[Squid Melody [Blue Version]]

The voice is a little shrill in places, if you didn't I'd have tried cutting off 100 or so hertz on the high end.

Catchy and Awesome though, it being a bit rough on the high end through my rig is my only complaint.

Generous of you to post the acapella, any chance on a midi coming with that? Or at least a progression, key/scale?

TheLivingTombstone responds:

You're right about the voice being a bit too much on the high-end, I had a lot of trouble to make the lyrics understood and at the same time keeping it safe EQ wise, welp!

I'll do a MIDI version of it now for people to follow along, thanks for the suggestion!

[Burning Cooking Passion Pro In]

Smooth man, I can totally hear this in the background of a menu screen. Pretty marketable stuff, I mean if you go for that sort of sound, this is something that could be used easily.

The synth sound, bass, the wooblock hit, it all melts together, I can't point out anything I'd change.

eatmeatleet responds:

thanks, really? I thiunk this track is way too simple.. :)

[Stratkat - V-Mode 2014 (k)]

Yeah man, the update sounds awesome, love it. Definitely does the composition some justice, I really like the track and it's one of my oldest ones, I should take a crack at updating my version sometime.

krssvr responds:

Thanks Man i felt a sudden need to update this, glad you liked it. You should definitely do that.

[The Winds of Aphyrmehrius]

The leads a bit on the high end, I like my kicks a bit tighter than that, the synth like sounds might be bettter to use bells, xylophone or glockenspiel (spell?XD). The lead melodies could have more layering/layers. Other than that I really like the melodies, and it loops well.

Aphyrmehrius responds:

Thank you for your review :) i like it

[8-bit Story Book (Mac13)]

Really like the panning in this, the snare (sounds like an explosion fx with a shortened waveform, then the full waveform plays after x bars, and that's awesome,) on the right is a little to subtle in the mix imo, like just a tiny bit too subtle.

The sounds/melody remind me of cave story, which is a recent pixel game I played with awesome music x3

Nice track.

GamekrazzyProduction responds:

Ah, I see what you mean on that right being a tad too subtle, but after spending some time messing with the balancing, I don't think I can quite fix that without drowning the rest of the song.

Thanks for the review!

[Chapter 2: I am Alex]

Hehe, grim, it's just a like a doki44 (fat-pie, creator of saladfingers.)

Seriously espcially with his newer animations, it's like your pulled dialogue right from one of his toons.

It's very interesting.

Great Job.

[SmK - Ascension Preview]

You guys are very good at keeping a consistent, upbeat tone throughout these types of songs. Honestly it would amaze me if you haven't revisited chord progressions. I hope you keep growing as an artist(s,) don't forget about NG. Even if youtube is more accessible, imo there's even less constructive review, or sincere comments.
