Tainlorr's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Fast Distance (WIP)]

Pro

Good work, my friend.

DJ-Qwamii responds:

Glad you enjoyed it. thanks! 8)

[[JLB] Yoda's Theme]

Perfect

This is amazing, it sounds just like it! You did justice to John Williams!

[Classical Score]

Nice.

Really good, but has a lot of glitchy sounds. Is that a phaser you used? It hardly fits. I love the string parts and the piano, keep it up!

[-Orr- LARRY: City of Karryon]

Wow

You, Mr. Orr, are the most talented composer on Newgrounds. This is with EWQL right? You did a great job of adding realism. Sounds like something from a high-budget Nintendo game (in fact.. the beginning almost sounds exactly like the Mario Galaxy Motif)
I'm amazed that you can make the orchestra tumble around with such finesse, you'd almost be mistaken for Horner or Elfman. The song does a great job of changing moods from heroic to playful-action to classical fantasy. Props, dude.

DavidOrr responds:

Wow, thanks for the kind words! Yes, this is all done with EWQL Symphonic Orchestra, with a few samples from Stormdrum and QL Pianos. I was aiming for that whimsical, hectic Elfman style - it's great to hear that it came through!

[Color (Orchestral Song)]

Props

Nice. You got an orchestra pack. Is it GPO? Props for using the real instruments, it sounds great. Only thing is that you need to work on the mixing a bit. Some instruments are way too overpowering, and others sound muddy. Keep it up. Composing is one thing, but Mixing is a whole 'nother challenge to tackle.
You are great at piano by the way!

[You shouldn't of said that...]

HAHAH!

This is awesome!!!!!! It's like.. Heavy-Techno. Thumbs up!

[ZUK - Ninja Rampage OST]

Nice.

Captures the ambient-ninjaness very well. Stormdrum 2 for the win!

pavelzuk responds:

Ahah! Good ears sir, SD2 for the win indeed!

[ZUK - Flying Machine OST]

WOW!

Newgrounds continues to impress me. This is the best song i've heard all week! Bravo. Props for the real piano (:
Wish I could pull this off. I'm amazed.

[Classical Etude in D Minor]

Wow!

Hey, this is some really good stuff! Much more intelligent than most of the Newgrounds!
I really like the melody part. The reverb makes it sound reallllly nice. And, their is definately much polyphony. Which isn't always good, because young composers generally put all this polyphony and rapid sixteenth notes. It generally sounds terrible.
You pulled this off only too well! You are one of the few composers on Newgrounds who can do all this without sounding bad! This is an amazing peice of music! I wish I could write this well, but I'm forced to rely on orchestration to cover my compositional weakness. I'm impressed.

[Keybee Productions Logo Music]

Nice job

I really like the cresendo at the end! Some tips for using EWQL, try adding some panning to the instruments, they feel clustered in the middle and it blocks out some of the frequencies.
