PlayingInParks's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Entropy]

Very interesting track. I loved the percussion and all of the fast kicks and resonating snares (or rimshots, it's hard to tell), which is good because it's most definitely the focal point of the song. All of the other sounds were really interesting as well. Overall really great track. Very industrial and dirty sounding. Nice job.

[Poindexter]

Really interesting track. I like those little runs you did with an acid synth slowly building up to some kind of subtle addition. It's wonderful for a game soundtrack, which i assume this was made for, so awesome job! Are you using a digital synth on here or do you have some analogue hardware? Either way it sounds great!

Fyresale responds:

Heh, many thanks! The synths used here are mostly Nexus 2 and Absynth, although I'd absolutely love to get my hands on some nice hardware to play with someday. XD

[For a Moment - Teal]

Really love that fat bass and the...to be completely honest I'm not entirely sure what that sound in the beginning is. It sounds like a sculpture synth of some sort, but it's a really interesting sound. And the calmer part about 2:00 in sounds really great. The only problem I had with it was that I thought there was a bit too much going on in the beginning, but I assume it's just adding to the build up to that nasty baseline, so it's fine now that I look back on it. Anyways really great track! I'd love to hear more stuff like this.

SkullDrone responds:

thanks for the review! Ok, so that sound at the begining is a preset arp that I completly modified, which is also the lead later on. Also, fat basses are my specialty haha.

Yeah i guess its a bit crowded at the intro, but i can't really find another way to build it up the way i want it to :P

if this gets good feedback, you can count on more being made.

[The Bearer of Light]

Im really digging that guitar sound. You might want to add a little more variance to your background beat, but those are some really cool sounds. The melody was interesting, and the piano rift was really well done. Nice job.

[APC - Distances]

Incredible. Very soothing and tasteful. I love the percussion on this track. The side chained pads are also really pretty. Well done.

Oh and the eq sounds great! You have nothing to worry about.

APerfectContrast responds:

Thanks for listening man, thats great to hear! :)

[End It]

Great tune. My only criticism is when the snare first comes on, keep the kick going along with it. I think you nailed that image you had in your head, though. I love the sound design in the later portion of the track. Nice job! Keep up the great work.

[Love Bad_9]

I love the structure of your chords. On every piece I've listened to you, each one struck a nerve with me. Great stuff. Like, really great stuff. The horns are just so groovy. I love it

xxxZigZagxxx responds:

Thanks PlayingInParks. Your encouragement is really appreciated. :)

[Lemme In]

Loved the sound design on this track. The breathy synth and the resonating snap are very original and I can't say I've heard many things like it. It's almost as if the snap is like a rain drop, dripping into a puddle in a room with tons of reverb. Really great tune you've got here, my friend. Keep up the great work.

xxxZigZagxxx responds:

Thanks PlayingInParks for the really cool feedback. I'll keep in mind to keep things breathy and fresh in the future. I'm glad you're a fan. Thanks for the encouragement :)

[Janze - Oldscsong techno]

Incredibly catchy tune. Loved the guitars and reso-synth that came after it. It's already stuck in my head.

[Wysiger]

Interesting track. I really enjoyed it the odd melody and all the electric mallets. Great tune. But when you say you have no idea where to go with it, why not leave it as it is? It sounds great. Who cares about the length. As long as you are content with the finished product, that's all that matters.

asid61 responds:

The problem is, I don't like the ending. I'll just add in some kind of exit.
