AlexTL13's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Zombie Outbreak]

I like it at first, but it gor boring and forgetful real quick.

It's the repetition, i hear no variety or change, and the little instrument changes and adds you do, end up being repeated also!

I did like the Caribbean feel of the drums and it has this great energy that fits perfectly on a platformer.

some variety would make this better, on the drums, or the instruments you use, or the note progression of the line. or u can just shorten it a minute or two.

mixing seems okay, drums are too much in the foreground, and overall, it's nice to listen to.

Stereocrisis responds:

I hear you. I wouldn't mind remixing this one. I like the general melody, but it does need to be broken up into different parts and frankensteined into another creation.

Thank you for the review @AlexTL13.

The track had me thinking of a mysterious forest, the white noise feeling like the rustling of the trees moved by the wind.

I felt bored in the first half of the song, it mostly came from the main instrument in the foreground for which the repetition held a presence that failed to keep my attention. I felt like it was overpowering the smaller noise in the back and the minimalist approach started to show itself as somewhat shallow.

The thin white noise is what held it together and what let me keep listening especially since it progresses a bit louder as it goes on, this subtle progression gave it that bit of fullness it needed to get me in the mood.

overall i like it.

Fubaka responds:

It's okay if you thought the melody was a bit hollow. The point of the song is to feel somewhat empty.

The detail you describe definitely gives me the impression that the magic I had been weaving was starting to take effect. Perhaps this song will grow on you if you give it a few more listens.

Ultimately, I hope you will give the rest of the album a listen too. I'd like to hear your thoughts on the other tracks.

[The Horror of Self]

Oh jeez i really like this. It's too short, but that's because I'm used to hearing music like this with a length of minimum 6 minutes hehe. so yea, I'm not very knowledgeable so i can't say much more than that I loved it and thank you for the 2 minutes 44 seconds.

sleepFacingWest responds:

I think you're right. Part of this sleep facing west project was about writing quickly and moving on without overthinking things, but I do feel that this is too short. I've resumed work on it.
