3manonMusic's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[-Frostbite-]

I will have to agree with aforesaid commentary, the general instrument quality is pretty low. That being said, I feel like the track goes along pretty incoherent. The parts on their own sound pretty good, but there's some grid errors and mistimed parts that lead to some pretty awkard stuff like 2:41, until it kinda sounds, quote on quote, like "a mess of chiptune, breakbeat, and orchestral".

Sorry if I started out on a bit of a negative side, lemme get to the positives! I think the atmosphere of racing VGM is definitely there, as it sounds like an old retro arcade racing game! And I can't really blame you for the low instrument quality of course, because having high quality orchestral stuff can get really expensive really quickly.

Well… if that’s the case I’ve been set in place, if the instrument quality is THAT low, then I’m thinking I should just quit the competition, cause it’s apparent no one wants to hear my shitty violin samples.

Really cool atmosphere, I'm impressed what you guys managed to achieve here in terms of theming. An issue I have with the mixing is that the entire low is pretty muddy in general, which especially is an issue in the intro. That speech is pretty cool, but kinda of sounds like an intro for some old hardstyle track, which I'm not sure you guys wanted to achieve there. Solacitude absolutely smacked it on the solo again, which doesn't seem to surprise anyone anymore at this point. I also like the saxophone solo, although that doesn't really shred through the mix unfortunately. Definitely would have liked it if that was a bit louder. Very well-done.

Glad you enjoyed, and thanks for the feedback! There isn't a sax in there though lol, not sure what you're referring to on that front

pretty cool song. Your way of promoting it to me felt really pushy though, watch out with that.

What people think breakcore is that don't know the genre

wineplume responds:

technically it is breakcore lol, but not all of it
mostly it's just dogshit (random samples clumped into one big mess)

I see that the battle of the titans have spread to halloween2024...
This is really really tense, good job. Giving it a 4.5 instead of a 5 for the simplicity, but the simple concept is excecuted perfectly!

Pfffft this was a “oh no I need a song for Halloween” moment and I pulled something that could work from my computer haha
