Phronemophobia's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Yuugure No Tori feat. Oliver - Mekkatech remix]

An impressive remix that you've clearly put in a lot of effort to help it stand apart from the source material. That's made even more apparent by how little emphasis is placed upon the lyrics, especially since it's those creepy voices that really make the original stand out. You took something unsettling and made it playful.

Thank you, Mekk.

Mekkatech responds:

Thanks :D I'm glad you liked my remix

[Outlaw Frontier | 2017]

You sure do love to diversify your music... and you do damn fine job of it, too!

Bertn1991 responds:

D'aww, you're too nice. Thank you for listening my dude ^.^

[Voodoo | 2016]

I love the Voodoo that you do, while you poo, so well... except for Roy Haggard Acid.

Bertn1991 responds:

They can't all be winners I suppose. Thanks for listening <3

[Big Bug | 2013]

This is very much appropriate for a simple game soundtrack, but it's not all that enjoyable as a standalone... be a real shame to leave this as is. Hey, if I continuously shovel candy corn down your gullet, would you be able to work your magic and turn this into something spooktacular for All Hallows' Eve? We could also work with mellowcreme pumpkins.

Bertn1991 responds:

I no longer have the project files, but something this simple would be a breeze to reverse engineer. I'll see what I can do. Thanks for listening :)

[endK - Eternal Sands]

"This one's pretty weird to describe."

How about "masterful"? I think that describes it fairly well.

endKmusic responds:

If you say so!
Thanks a lot. :)

[Lovebug Legacy | 2017]

If I drop dead specifically on a beach, I can only hope to hear this playing as I pass on into the afterlife. Also, I'm mildly... MILDLY... inspired by this music.

Thank you, Bertn.

Bertn1991 responds:

Mildly, eh? That's more than somewhat and almost a little. That is a high honer! Thanks for listening as always and giving such an oddly specific description. Love it <3

[The Final Battle 3 (2011)]

Any chance of you remastering this to get rid of the muffled sound? It's as if I'm listening to this from the other side of the room.

The song is everything I want to hear in a final battle, but the overall quality becomes quite noticeable the moment I switch between it and something else on my media player.

Bertn1991 responds:

It's an old song. I really do want to remake it though. Anyways, thanks for your review as always. It's always nice to hear your thoughts :)

[The First Armada]

I wouldn't mind listening to this while replaying Crash Man's stage. I also wouldn't mind listening to this while not replaying Crash Man's stage... but I'll still be thinking about Crash Man's stage (especially between 00:43 and 00:56).

I always enjoy your fun, energetic music, SirQ.
Thank ya muchly.

Quebi responds:

Funny you say that. I actually beat Megaman 2 again yesterday

[8-bit Horror Chase]

The sound and build-up remind me of a couple of NES games from my sad excuse for a childhood, and I appreciate that quite a bit (the music, not the childhood), but this never quite reaches an appropriate climax. It never hits that point which makes the listener jump. Add to that, the overall structure is fairly simplistic, even by NES standards. You've created a decent loop, but it definitely feels like a something or two is missing.

UnholyVirign responds:

When I'll finally get my laptop fixed and I'll have time I will definitely remake this track :3

[Creo - Showdown]

It's well made. Sounds good. I don't specifically think of Creo when I hear it, as I have with the other songs you've composed.

CreoMusic responds:

Thank you, hope you still enjoyed the song!
I thought, I did bring a bit of my signature sound in - at least with the synth work in the drop. Other than that of course I'm always looking for new things to bring into my music, as of lately I've tried to sample vocals in. And I love to play around with cinematic-style atmospheres. Just so you have a heads up of what awaits in the future. ;)
