Haggard's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[*Interlude*]

\m/

This sounds quite nice. While you are right when you say that the main theme is very repititive I don't think that it's that much of a problem here, as you added some nice various parts as the song goes along.

It starts off very low with just the main beat but more and more is added later in the song. So you DO have some kind of developement in there ;) .

I can imagine hearing that in some kind of menu for any type of game.

WritersBlock responds:

That's funny, because I showed this to my brother a while ago and he wanted me to turn it into a loop to be used in a game he's making.
Thanks for the comments, I'm glad you like the flow of the song.

[Celestial Skies]

\m/

This definetly sounds like some Final Fantasy start screen melody, heh.

I like how you start with the piano and than add the other instruments in there slowly and quietly, never outpowering the piano.

The strings sound very nice and relaxing, just like the whole song is very relaxing :) .

I think this could either be used in the main screen or maybe when the credits roll out. But then again, if this is used in the credits, very few people will notice it, has I don't think that many people are actually watching the credits ^^.

thanks for the compliment, it's an honor to be associated with FF! :D

I'm very pleased to hear you like this track. Thanks for the good review!

[World's Bounty]

\m/

Oh yeah, 8-bit music! :D

I think this would fit in any RPG, maybe as "on the world map" song. This sounds like so many "world map"-themes out there, so it would fit perfectly ^^.

If this would loop better (or at all ;) ) it would be better, I think. Because it's always kind of disturbing the game flow when suddendly the music stops and then starts over again.

TheReno responds:

True true. I still havent figured out how to loop songs yet, but Im working on it. Im glad you like it though. xD Thanks for giving me the tips xD

[Not so Simple]

\m/

Nice beat in the background and two guitars that play some nice melodies. So it's a nice song :D .

But you should add something more to it. A better drum track and definetly a bassline, this would make the song so much better. Right now it sounds like a good intro, but when it comes to the point where the song could finally start, it's already over... :/

aldlv responds:

ohh... something more...
ok.. good idea...
I will do it the next time
thanx

[Slow Chemical (Kane's Theme)]

\m/

This song has a lot of potential, but it sounds quite "weak" right now.
There's power missing in nearly any aspect. The guitars and especially the drums sound way too soft. Put more bass in there!

The vocals are all right. They sound as powerful as the whole song should sound. I don't know if this would have been better with clean vocals, but it sounds all right with the growls here.

I like the rhythm and the melody, even though I think you could speed up the whole thing a bit.

[Electro Blues - Wayl0n]

\m/

The melody you played on the guitar sure sounds like blues, heh. But I think the quality of the sound isn't that great. The drums sound all right, but the guitar sounds very much overamplified... turn down on that distortion a bit to get a cleaner sound.

The loop doesn't work that well, you can hear a gap between the end end the start, you should try to fix that.

Overall, it's not a bad submission, just a little too short. But I think that you have the talent to create some very good songs.

[(_RGH_) Kingdom Grunt(KGVB)]

\m/

This is indeed a very nice song and perfectly fine without any rap overs... I somehow can't even imagine how anyone could rap to this.

I think this could be used in a wide range of games, not just like FPS, but also Horror Survival (this song has somehow a creepy feeling to it) or even a puzzle game.

The beats are very nice and I like the melodies you used in the song very much. Some of them have a very "80's" like sound and remind me of some song from Kraftwerk or a similar band...

[(_RGH_) Climate Loop(Remix)]

\m/

I have no idea from which of your songs this loop is from as this is just the second submission from you that I listened to :P .

However, the beats and effects in here are very nice and even though it's just 30 seconds long you managed to add a lot of different sounds to it, thus making the loop very diversified.
When the 30 seconds are over I always think that the song lasted much longer than just a few seconds, heh.
Good job!

RyeGuyHead responds:

You can always liten to more

[(_RGH_) Soul Drain (Robotrip)]

\m/

It's a nice beat with a nice main beat.

I think it could be best used in a puzzle game, because this feel quite relaxing. But the problem with this loop is that it is rather short so that little to no variations are "provided" in the song.

Maybe you can make this a bit longer and add some more parts to it.

RyeGuyHead responds:

Yay review request club!!

I could extend this fairly easily

[Rig FX - Buttons & powerups]

\m/

It's a nice idea to create some sound effects for flash artists.

I think it would have been better if the gap betweemn the sounds would have been a bit bigger. That way it would be easier for arists to extract the sound they wish to use.

Also a bigger variation of sounds would have been nice, too. But this is a good start! :)
