FaeryTaleAdventurer's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Winter 2.0 by Mitko Rouynekov]

I'm not sure if this is your first song or not, but it sounds like it's missing a lot of refinements like quantized notes, and musical direction. I can kind of hear the D sharp major, but it's a weird one.
That was an interesting sound effect at the end, though. You've got so many ideas you seem to be tossing around, but the structuring of them feels unclear and all over the place. I haven't reviewed music in years, but this one's on request. I wish you the best of luck with your future work.

[Apex Twink]

I like that influence

Jukestar responds:

Thank you kindly hehe

[Chocnoon - Omnicide (DIII)]

This is jungle. It's too fast for drum and bass, if you ask me.

name responds:

Isn't Jungle another thing of DnB?

And also, there's no Jungle genre in NG.

[T.E.O.M. - Newgrounds Anthem (Produced By TheEyeOFMusiK)]

Good shit once again man. Sounds like a nice mix of GB/Logic synths and SID synths, which has a cool retroactive feel to it. Keep up the great work dude, I apologize for the delayed response, as I rarely visit NG anymore.

Bro! This beat here is all right. The loop has an addictive feel to it, that doesn't really get boring. Love the vocal sample, as it announces who this beat is about, who it's from and such. Very modern and smooth. I was half-expecting lyrics to get thrown in, but even as an instrumental it's pretty well put together. I feel like there could be more variety with the melody or something, but outside of that it's pretty neat stuff.

Keep following your dreams, whatever they may be.

[Spectral Fun ~P~]

A subtle yet interesting remix of your MonHunter song. Was listening to the familiar intro, the progressions, and the confirming end.

Have I found you out?

Phyrnna responds:

Yep :p

[THE TEMPLE]

If you really are the original artist, I'm impressed. The last time I heard this song was about 10 years ago on the late great Don LaFontaine website. Nice accomplishment, if I say so myself. After his passing, the site underwent a rework, getting rid of this background music in the process.

Seems like this song has definitely got a lot of use in the past. Hope it keeps up!

[NGDIC2 Part II - General MIDtown Theme Cover]

Effin' dope, Daru! I'm so blown away with this remix. I'm flattered that you picked this one out of all the others to remix.

I wish I was able to devote more time to finishing the song, but I'm happy to see what you were able to pull off with what I had.

Keep up the wonderful work, bro, it sounds so pro and inspirational. Your choices of instruments and stuff totally makes this remix a thang.

Daru925 responds:

Hey, glad you like it^^
Upon listening to the midi (only pianos and drums), i immediately pictured what instruments would fit^^ It was easy :)
So if the track is good, its mostly because you made it very easy for me.

I later listened to your original on soundcloud, when i was looking for the name of the track, after finishing my version^^ Very nice!

[Glooming (x-com'ish)]

NIce stuff, it reminds me a lot of a song from the Marathon FPS game.

[Night]

Wow, this sounds like a step outside of the norm for you. It's not really "hip-hop" in the way its defined today. I applaud you for erecting something of such length as this in FL Studio (or other software). I hadn't recall coming across a song of this length and style on Newgrounds since FatKidWitaJetpak's "Ironesque Valley".

This month I learned a lot with SONAR through experimentation, which is essentially what this compilation of a song is all about. You've used a lot of samples, and they seem to meld well with each other.

The mix of instruments, audio clips and whatnot together almost feels like they came from a "trip" of a movie or something. It certainly sounds like a lot of time was put into this work.

For being fresh out of high school, it seems almost as if you've been making music for many years. I don't know what inspired you to make such a journey at the time, but it feels like a journey worth completing.

I'm not big on mastering myself, most of the time I don't even really bother with it, feeling satisfied with the given quality.

As of this review, I've barely accumulated even half the minutes of this song in the challenge that took place this month of February. The transitions seem to be darn-near seamless, as if they were meant to be.

Your quotes appear strong and useful. Music is constantly evolving and we may never run out of new ideas for it for aeons to come.

Keep doing what you're doing, C.J.
