Irbis's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Higher Ground(J.R. Cover)]

makes me wanna go out and punch someone.
sweet!

RingAnimated responds:

:) Thanks!

[<PS> Rescue]

So... why the hell this isnt on frontpage? Seriously, this track tells you a story. Its deep, interesting and uncommon. I am getting a bit sick and tired of yet another dubstep bullcrap taking away recognition from tracks such as this. This could seriously be played at opera or something.

[Looking Through Your Eyes]

Hey. It rises nicely and smothly.
Adn when the guitar comes... just perfect.
It has this cheerful feeling. Easy going, casual. And not too agressive.
It was really a pleased listen.
And its getting better with time.
One and only comlain: I would like to hear some proper ending instead of just slowly kiling the volume. I think it deservers betters.
thats why 4.5/5
Kudos!

toshkabg responds:

Thank you very much for your comment! I'll keep that in mind. :)

[An Augmented Infiltration]

Wow.
That burping is actualy quite rad. And the instruments just spice the whole thing. A very interesting mix of artifical sounds and instruments.
Complain... why so short? come on! I finaly could feel the taste of the sounds and the song ends.
Thx god at least its nicely looped.
Bottomline: It very cool. But i feel it could be something much much greater. Hence the 4/5 not 5/5.
Kudos!

Neon-Bard responds:

Awesome! It's great to know that the two styles blended well together in the end. The song is a little short, but I suppose I ran out of ideas for the song at the point of cutoff. :P

"But I feel it could be something much much greater." I'll keep that in mind Irbis! Thanks. :)

[The Carrier]

Hmmmm! looky looky! what do we have here? :)
Heavy and dark. I imagine huge battleship carrier drifting thru deep space. Huge asteroids hits it and crashes leaving the battleship unharmed. He is majesticly driffting toward the fleet of enemy. First fighters launches from the fighters bay swarming from the carrier belly like a shroud of destruction.
But again... why so shooooooorttt!?!?!?
The moment the song actualy gets serious.. it ends.
Leaving me with nothing but a boner and lust for more that never comes.

E-Mahler responds:

xD Lol that last sentence haha

Well MY apolloges I am afraid of over doing my songs (As that was a big problem I had in the past like way over board)

However I do here what you are saying Ill see what I can do as I to think I could extend it

[Nebula Dream]

I am not sure do i feel any "nebula" in it.
More like "Stranded on a lone asteroid".
You know, i imagine myself standing in a astro-suit on a one of these asterois. like that Little Prince from the book. Watching into endless space, counting stars. Observing passing comeths, space dust and sun, around which my little asteroid circles.
And yes, as the guy before me said: very calming and relaxing. But not TOO relaxing so it would make me feel sleepy. More like a "calm curiosity" if you catch my drift.

[Crystal CO Meltdown]

First impression: Blade Runner. And i dont know why exactly.
It has this futuristic urban feeling but drums appearing from about 1:00+ gives it a bit a Fallout touch. Interesting blend.
You seriously will be a blessing for anybody making a retro science fiction game.
And i like the style of yours. I mean, nowadays - people just tends to over-sweet the songs. They drop just waaaaaaay too much and too many samples. Your samples and the way you connect them into a whole piece proves that you really dont need to have over 50GB huge samples storage. If wisely chosen and mixed even this lil much can end up as a something quite rich.

E-Mahler responds:

Well to be honest I use to put WAY to much into my songs xD. I toned that down a lot ty you for the fead back yet again :)

I do hope that I can make music for video games at some point (Though I really hope to just be an artist in general)

[Decisive Moment]

Reminds me of BG music from old Adventure Games such as Universe, Beneth the Steel Sky or Gemini Rue and other SCI-FI game.
Its not agressive, perfectly plays in the background blending with whatever the listener is doing, But not interupting his work and focus.
Few complains:
A bit short. Could be longer. To add some diversity you can replace the main sample with another one as the song plays, and then another one and another one. This should get rid of that repetetivness.
Sure, its not some jaws-breaking piece of art. But then again - i believe it wasnt planned to be one. Its great when you are working and you just want to get rid of this damn silence, but at the same time to not pull too much of your attention which would result in your getting distracted.
I seriously wouldnt mind a looped version of this.

E-Mahler responds:

Hmm Hadnt thought of that Ill give that a try and see how it plays out

[A Flame of the Heart ~P~]

You never fail to deliver Halcyonic :)
Solid song. Wings Granting.

[My Dreams Dream]

Very delicate and fragile beggining. Somehow reminds of a winter night, with snowflakes falling slowly from the sky. Nostalgic.
But the true hit came after 1:56
It was like everything the song achieved so far but suddenly multiplied by 10.
Beautiful song mate.
The one and only flaw (dont take this "flaw" word too seriously) i can think of is the way the song ends. It just dies out when i would like to hear some sort of "finalisation" if you know what i mean. An audio "dot" at the end of the sentence.
Other then that - well, its playing on loop from like an hour already.
That alone should be a valid proof of your song quality ;)
Kudos!

E-Mahler responds:

Thank you very much for the comment I am glad my song could be played for an hour :D

Ill see if I can add somethings nice to the end :)
