PianoFortress's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Z3ta+ Loop #1]

yooooo

thanks d00de...but what about the piano presets you were talking about?!
anyway, the lead synth sounds nice. Percussion is also good considering it was made with z3ta ;D

[The Survivor [Orch.]]

hmmm

Very calm and relaxing. Would fit in the credits of a movie or sth. Love the change between the slow and more intense passages. And the climax just before the 3 minute mark gives me shivers. Wonderful!

[0 Ist Mein Freunde]

asdf

I voted five cuz I think it's cool...yo...Oo

[Kindred (Super Metroid)]

A gem...

hidden between all this trash that floods the audio portal. Great remix, yeah! I also liked the lyrics. That's something you don't expect in a VG-remix.

[~Wonder~]

yay

great composition. I hear some Muse("Falling with you") inspiration at 0:08 =D. Melody is a bit repetitive though but the strings are a nice addition and give the song some variety.

Firebalt responds:

Thanks heaps. Yeah I tried to keep this one simple and creating interest is an important musical concept that I learnt in music classes. So i decided to achieve Interest through adding texture (the strings) rather than bringing in lots of new melodies or sections. Plus I had to refrain from adding a typical guitar solo... :P

[Rose-Coloured Hindsight]

yay

very good and original. love the arrangement and the mixing. deserves to be in the top 3 =D.

curriemaster responds:

Thanks very much, I did spend a long time on the mixing so Im glad you approve. Cheers and good luck in the comp :D

[_-=[Don't Tell Me Again]=-_]

hmmm

wonderful song you've got there Maestro! Great arrangement, samples sound superb and you did a great job mastering the whole thing. 10/10 and 5 a day!

[Kaiz- Walking Away (MAC9)]

hmmmm

interesting choice of synths. but the song lacks in variation. Maybe you could think of some new effects or even change the synth for the main melody somewhere in the song. Also, some dynamics would be nice. The song just goes on and on without a real climax.

nightsurfermusic responds:

I know, it's an amature piece. I rushed it and didnt take much time at all.

[[oove] Heartbeats]

hmmm

Lovely melody you play here. sugar reverb and playing-backwards effect do their job creating a nice atmosphere. the song is indeed very lonely. I miss the "love" in it. feels more like someone has a whole in their heart on Valentine's Day. Which, of course, is legit. The climax at the end is kinda refreshing and changes the mood to something more....hopeful?!...

broove responds:

hopeful? Perhaps. It's about how you perceive it.

[MH16: MAC9]

hmmm

Let's see...lots of short and long strings playing. nice melody, good rythmn. I miss some climax in this song as well as some variation in instruments. the flute near the end is a nice idea but so late. I'd suggest to add some kind of drums, too. Add some dynamics as gOrc said.

FairSquare responds:

Thanks for the review and the advice! :-)
