ScottJacob's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Theme of Amon]

Could easily see this in some epic RPG Final Fantasy type game, this is really great. Looks of emotional depth and imagination.

kcpm responds:

Thanks! That's what I was aiming for so I'm really happy to hear that

[The Black Walk]

Solid production, it sounds really nice. You have some great textures in there, like the marching walk in the background and the distorted feedback that adds to a tense atmosphere. I really enjoyed it!

[Plus25]

Not bad! The drums are a mixed a bit too heavy like the snare could maybe be brought down a bit or softened. Also i agree that extending it or giving an ending would help too. Overall a really cool song i love the feel of it. Keep it up!

Surkol responds:

Thanks man. You're right, I didn't even think about that. It's like some things you just wont notice until someone mentions it and then you can't unnotice it.

I gotta work on making better drumloops in general. This deserves a lower rating too. I just wanted to upload something.

[Random Song]

This is pretty rad man, i wouldn't call this bad at all. Its got lots of fun elements to it

TheDoubleOne responds:

Thank you

[Dark's Adventure: Dragonslayer]

This is great, though i guess i feel a little let down with the drums. I kind of wish they had a fuller sound but being a more medieval type song i can picture a couple lads in a tavern using a tabletop as a drum while another plays a violin lol Otherwise this was really well done, i like the fact you added in more acoustic elements like a harp and tambourine. They sound real nice, great work

Troisnyx responds:

Thank you -- very glad you enjoyed it! ^_^

If you do not mind awfully, I'd like to send you a PM for help with mixing that medieval drum + context.

[Synthesize Me]

This song is great man!

[Hard-Boiled Heavies (Vocal Remix) (Sonic Mania)]

Solid mix man! Smooth execution and delivery.

smooth4lyfe responds:

Thanks dude!

[Shop Theme]

Fantastic! Sounds great man

DreyLand responds:

Thanks! :D

[Secret Zone 2 - Map (Remastered)]

Great as always, i love the worldly sounds you have with the flute and acoustic guitar in the background. Fits real nice lol

DreyLand responds:

Hi,
Thanks a lot for the short review, I'm glad to see that everything sound good to you! :)

[[TC] Full Flight (instrumental demo)]

Wow very cinematic and epic. It really paints a picture of soaring through the sky. Its all rather beautiful, 3 years is along time but i think its paid off with what you have so far. My only concern would be losing the momentum when dropping into full Trance mode but what you have so far is really great not a lot to critique that i can think of. Great work man

TranceCrafter responds:

re-reading this comment now. I like that you get my whole approach is either in "orchestral mode" or "trance mode" but also there will be "dnb mode" and "dubstep mode" and maybe even "singing mode" :D
