Haggard's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Change is in the Air]

Pretty interesting

This creates a very interesting atmosphere. Some mixture of relaxing, happy and "caribbean" (but I don't know where that comes from, heh).

The melodies are nice and catchy, only the drums sound a little dull and too generic.

Also, the main beat doesn't seem to change too much in this track. A few breaks every now and then makes this more interesting to listen to.

Thanks!

[Game Over Guitar Theme]

Good

I like what Urbanus wrote in his review. This piece really sounds sad, but also has some hope in it. "Ah, next time I'll beat this boss!" *Loads last saved game*

Also, the loop is done very nice, so if anyone wants to use it in his or her game, there's no further editing needed. Good work!

sarias responds:

thanks its really how i felt a game over theme should be i mean in a game like lets say Zelda 2 where you die then have to go all the way back to the begining ya theres no hope your sad cause it means you gotta start all over where as in a later zelda game like Link to the past you die you just start at the opening of the dungeon and you go again

thanks for the review

[-rT- WiP : Digital Extacy]

A nice start

This sounds very promising. I like the slow build up. The intro is very relaxing, good to calm down a bit. Then the song slowly builds up to a more dancable song.

Too bad it isn't finished and in an very early stage it seems. I would like to hear the rest of it. :)

Thanks for the review :)

[Rondoesque]

Good

Midi sounds awful, but I guess you know that already. I would really like to hear this with a real saxophone. The melody is nice and pretty catchy. This all is backed up with a nice piano in the background.

Good work on composing, now you just need to find a way to record a real sax. ;)

sarias responds:

oh it will happen when i have the tools to do so I have a sax player (i could do it but I was 3rd chair in regionals and he was 1st and 2nd in all state i didn't make it lol) to play it for me now i just need to find a piano player because to be honest im an ok pianist but this is a little beyond me

thanks again for the review

[The Terminator (Revamped)]

Nice intro, but it's too long

I like the piano intro, but it goes on for too long. Seeing as this is labeled as "Heavy Metal" you may want to cut down the intro a bit. If I read "Heavy Metal" I expect guitars and drums, not a piano. ;)

Anyway, when the guitars finally set in after 2 minutes they sound a bit overpowered. They nearly outpower the drums, which is a pity.

The atmosphere you create with the guitars is nice, so you just have to work a bit on the mixing here.

Blackdoom13 responds:

Ok thanks for the review. I'm gonna cut up the intro later and remix the other instruments.

[Ecliptic]

Nice

It's pretty nice and I actually felt reminded of some C&C tracks even though I never played that game for too long. But your track has the same futuristic feeling to it.

I think that one sound from the intro (that one that starts right away when the song starts) is a bit too loud and it goes on for too long. It was hard to make out the other instruments when that sound was playing. Only after over 1 minute you break it up a bit.

But overall it's a good song.

Thanks for your review))

[Galuminum]

Not enough Heavy Metal

I like 8-bit tunes.
I like Heavy Metal.

So this song is a pure win for me. But I like Heavy Metal more than 8-bit and this is filed under Heavy Metal. So I agree with some of the other reviewers who said that there should be more Metal in it.

The tune itself is very nice and I like the melodies and beats you created. I liked the second part (at 1:10) better, because the contrast of the heavy guitar and the kinda lightweight sounding 8-bit tunes is very interesting.

loansindi responds:

Thank you for the review.

I also am a fan of the second part, and when I get around to visiting this style again, that's the approach I'm going to take. Eventually the guitar will also take solos, they just need to be written.

[Big Red - Oh Noez!]

That was fast...

Good that you put the lyrics in the comments or else I wouldn't have understood a thing here.

The background beat could use some more melodies. Right now it seems as if it is just there so that you have something in the background, which is a bit of a let down for the song.

The rapping was nice and even though you rapped very fast all the words have been pronounced pretty clear, so... good job there. :)

Better speakers!! There's a baseline in there that I love! haha! Thanks for the review though!
