Anchorwind's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ironworks]

Not a bad first effort, if I understood your comments correctly. Try toning down (as in through pitchbending, or distorting, maybe even driving) the build-up FX and the snare. You might like how it makes a big difference. Perhaps not. Regardless, thanks for sharing.

Glowtide responds:

Yeah i was thinking of doing that, i haven't really worked a whole lot on the buildup as i was sort of getting song structure down. But i defiantly understand what you are saying.

[ORACLE]

This sounds like a nice introduction to something, or a pre-cursor for a 2nd half. Very enjoyable though, thanks for sharing.

[Working day in Industria]

Short sweet and to the point, I enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing.

Yqarus responds:

Thanks for your review.^^

[Zone Industrielle (2014)]

I really enjoyed the bit between (around) 3:25 - 4:14. It had a "Trip-Hop" feel to it that I would have liked to see developed further. Regardless, thanks for sharing.

[Distance]

I would say test successful thus far.

thanks for the feedback

[Yume Nikki: Snow World]

/download. I really enjoyed the ambiance in this. Some of the reverb seemed a bit much at notes, but it could just be me. Thanks for sharing.

[Machine Slaves]

I agree this is a simple song, but it's not too shabby. If you ever get bored, I'd recommend upping the tempo a bit and seeing what you think. It sounds just a little too slow. Something like 5 or 10 BPM may make all the difference.

[Venusian Shocktroops]

This is itching for a heavier version, but perhaps I think that too much. Isn't venus supposed to be more female oriented than male? Your tags suggest otherwise :p

AliceMako responds:

I'm already cheating by putting the kick and percussion in a feedback loop to beef them up disproportionally, not to mention these puppies have just three sound channels and one channel for static, i'm using a wrap around channel function to fake a fifth channel here though it's really still just the static one.

The philosophical attributions to planets i find distinct from ye olde scifi depictions, venus should naturally have hard men though we may concoct a scenario in which they're actually reaching said heights due to an opressive matriarchy? Or perhaps they are in fact raiding amazons and they take men for slaves?

It's along the lines of mars supposedly allways needing women, that's racist yo :D

[Point Of No Return]

I'm not really sure what to say, other than I enjoyed listening to this. It's easy to leave this on in the background whilst doing other things. Thanks for sharing.

MutualCore responds:

No problem sir :)

[My Days]

This sounds like the concept sketch, or a prelude, to something dark and menacing. Thanks for sharing.
