Anchorwind's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Toxic_Acid]

What was the inspiration for this one? I'll admit, I was reminded of "Control" by Traci Lords. Anyone else miss the mid 90's right now? I'm getting off topic. Not only do I like this track, I've liked several of yours now, so consider yourself in another favorite's list.

SlaughterClub responds:

[I Am Protector]

So, what defines 'Catch and Release' as something separate and unique? Thanks for posting.

MercuryMalign responds:

I'm still trying to figure that out for myself. I had strayed, quite substantially, from what my original intentions were. I wanted to write something that felt broken. A song with missing melodies, harmonies, and rhythms, written in such a way that your brain automatically fills it in. If that's making any sense; I'm babbling a bit.

For the most part, though, it was just me thinking that 'Catch and Release' would be a cool name for a genre or subgenre of music. It was a relatively incomplete thought. Thanks for Reviewing!

[(NOVA) - Corrupted]

It's punchy, and it's got this "Retro Danger" feel to it. That made me smile. However, There wasn't really much depth, variation or any sort of climax/resolution. So I say put this in one of those side-scrolling sci-fi shooter games and loop this when the boss comes out. Thanks for posting.

Thanks for Reviewing, and im glad you sort of like it! :D
Edit: I just realized that you're one of my all time favorite artists, and you reviewed my track, I am Honored!

[After_2Day-_Remix]

I listened to the original first, which has a nice easy groove to it. Then I came here and my smile grew even wider. I am no dubstep expert, but I enjoyed all 45 seconds of this!

SlaughterClub responds:

thanks glad you liked both version's ;-)

[Crawl (TNW)]

Can't say this one is your best, to me it just felt too slow.

ZLEAP responds:

Without lyrics, I doesn't make as much sense as I would like it to. And I couldn't explain without going into full detail to paint the complete picture. Long story short, The slow tempo was needed to pull off a sedated vibe. I'm not sure if that's what you got from it or not, but according to the idea in my head and the place it was coming from, It was a necessity.

Writing lyrics and figuring out how to present my voice properly.

[Nearing (WIP)]

Your piano work here is fine. The mid section bit was a bit tinny, but it was the strange bass that really didn't work for me. Depending on how you recorded it [the lower frequencies], you may not need to many effects to express your message equally clearly. If you do finish this, I would like to hear it!

biggiek7888 responds:

The funny thing is, I had initially intended for the mid higher keys to run about as long as the previous two, but for one reason or another, the program would make them off key past a certain point. I'm not sure if the settings were off or if I'm still too green with this software, but hopefully such a problem won't arise again.

Thank you very much for the honest feedback, I appreciate it immensely, and I do hope the next rendition will be more up to code!

[Full Circle]

/download. This has a nostalgic quality to me, thanks for posting.

OpenLight responds:

Thanks!

[007: Ironix - Uncovered]

This has promise. I would recommend taking another crack at this, but boosting the levels of your mid and higher ranges in your mix: sounds around 1:48-2:07 didn't stand out like they probably should have.

Ironclover responds:

That would be the Skyfall riff from "She's Mine" and "Bloody Shot." Its a limitation with my instruments that make it stand out less.

[The light in the darkness]

It's a shame the files are gone. Thanks for posting anyway.

DarkMauri responds:

Thanks to you for listening my songs and for your time to review them.

Yes, its a shame, because i had a great song which i named it "Complexity". Its not a finished song but it was a great song. Just made with Nexus and a lot of filters to make it special. Would be great if i manage to find the song again.

Once again, thanks for your time.

[The Great Charlatan]

...I'm not sure how I've just missed this one up to this point. This one is certainly not to be missed! This track embodies when it is OK to 'not be industrial enough,' [as I regularly write on tracks like these] because the groove is catchy. I had already clicked download before the first playthrough was over.

ZLEAP responds:

Thanks a bunch. This was an attempt to write a catchy tune and seems as if it worked. Mainly, this track among others wound up being background music for me to draw/paint to. Theres nothing like being inspired by yourself.
