Anchorwind's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Song_3]

I'm always a fan of unconventional experimentation. Get out and try things. I am less a fan of this particular execution per se, but I like the overall idea.

[Noisebringer - You lose [WIP]]

it is a shame this wasn't finished. I went and checked. I would have liked to see the full version too.

weemeee responds:

Yeahh, I have about 100 or so projects that I dropped, this was unfortunately one of them.
Thanks for the review though.

[Celestial Bodies]

of the different sections here the post 7:30 is my favorite, overall I enjoyed the work. I wonder if there is a 'radio edit' version :D This not just a track you just throw on casually.

[Scrutiny]

Angry? Oh no, this is happy and cheerful! I enjoyed the retro feel of the track. It has a nice tempo, easy to groove to, it plays with nostalgia without being overboard. The symbols at the end were unnecessarily loud/harsh but eh. Still enjoyable overall.

[nocturne épique]

Digging through things that have on NG for a few (several) years have been a lot of fun, like vinyl digging, but without the cool artwork. I'm a big Castlevania fan so I went there, mentally, listening to this a little bit but there are elements of other things too, like driving through a tunnel, or going trick-or-treating. I enjoy music that takes you places. This has an enjoyable crispness to it. Well done.

[Muddasheep - Ambience]

This is a pleasant track to listen to, a trip-hop (inspired) piece? Wherever it came from, well done. I've given it a couple listens already. While I'm not sure if the over all flat, tinny, sound was intentional in order to make the bass the one star of the show - it kind of works. The accent(s) of the vocalists is(are) fairly pronounced too, something not always heard when someone is singing. It gives a nice element to the piece - so again, it kind of works.

[-Xintitled-]

this has a nice creeping doom quality to it. someone is going to axe murder you as soon as you turn the corner. i like it.

SlaughterClub responds:

thanks brother was learning to use massive vst at the time good software ;-)

[Flak + Lyde (Instrumental WIP Collab) - Break Me]

This reminded me of bobble bobble, which is nice.

However, I'd love to hear this without the extra processing. This is harsh to hear, and not in a pleasant 'this is industrial' way. It's just overdone. I'm not sure if this is a overdrive effect, or levels too high, etc., but I'd genuinely like to hear this done properly. I bet this could be a wonderful track.

FlaksterMusic responds:

I really appreciate the criticism! Yeah, my early mixes tend to have too much saturation on them, I only just figured out how to fix it two days ago haha. It’ll sound much better even before the vocals are laid down

[Restructure]

I have this retro vibe from this track, I am just invisioning this sunglasses-clad nameless protagonist beating up anything that moves in this pixelated red ferrari-but-not-ferrari rescuing busty-blonde after ludricous amounts of button mashing. I dig it.
