Phronemophobia's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hate]

It's sounds like you unlocked Hard Mode for a demon-possessed copy of Galaga.
I consider that to be amazing AND terrifying at the same time. Great job!

[Decay]

I'm not a fan of slow music, so this isn't something I would enjoy hearing on my playlist, but I always appreciate a track that an artist puts in the effort to keep from going stagnant (from sounding repetitive) at any point. It may not be my cup of tea, but, for little experience I've had with this listening to this type of music, I still consider it to be a fine example of Sludge and an interesting blend of genres.

I appreciate that you took the time to write something and didn't just trash it because it's not your style. I also appreciate your open mind and willingness to look for something you could appreciate in something that's not your cup of tea. It is an unintentional mashup that just turned out that way as I put ideas together. I'm generally really happy with the music I make and I always hope that it will find it's way into the ears of someone who will feel excitement, happiness, meaning, and/or humor from it like I do. I also accept that it's not going to do the trick for everyone and that's totally fine.

Cheers!

[Finding My Way]

I thought I was going to hate this the moment I saw "downer" as one of the tags, but this was actually quite pleasant. Beautiful, even.

Great job, Vex.

[Shades of Pink]

A little simplistic, repetitive even, compared to many of your other songs, and I'm assuming that's part of what you meant by this being unfinished. It's still a pretty good piece, however, and would work exceptionally well with lyrics. Still, if you ever decide to go back and spruce this up, I'm sure no one would mind that the finished track wasn't uploaded on Valentine's.

[Mask]

A little too... dirty for my tastes. I think that's the word. I don't listen to a lot of Dubstep, but still, this isn't bad at all. Sounded like the music stopped abruptly at the end though.

Osher-Vaiman responds:

Yeah, newgrounds cut a little at the beginning and end for some reason, thanks for the review!
EDIT: the abrupt end was rendered like that, sorry, can't fix that, everytime I export audio, it happens. /:

[Locust Toybox: Crayon miracle Jpingo REMIX]

Not bad at all. It maintains that positive, quirky vibe I love so much about the original, but it doesn't stray far from its inspiration, does it? I wish you had done a little more with this to really make it your own.

jpingo responds:

Thanks For the Feedback!

[Megabootup]

While I can't imagine an authentic Mega Man stage with this sort of music (not sure what kind of themed robot would really associate with it), it's an enjoyable track all on its own. Then again, maybe it would work in a Newgrounds-themed Mega Man stage with the NG bots as robot masters. Has that already been done?

[Hypercube]

I heard this on the NG radio, and decided to give a second listen. It stands out, after all. A little odd the first time, but it's catchy, and the song grows on ya.
