AceMantra's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Illuminatio Ex Machina Palingenesia]

Y U NO BRASS BRRRRRRRR!? SRSLY BRO Y? 😒 /jk

This track is full of surprises. I really like the swells and pacing of this entire thing. It didn't even feel like 6 whole minutes went by.

Melancholic wandering are the best two words I can describe this piece with. The quiet atonal parts sprinkled in make this extra sorrowful and creepy. I don't really have anything to critique, except the brass. I can't hear it at all.

(honestly, leaving the brass out was a solid choice.)

[Canyon Cleaver]

Cool track! I love the section at 0:34; very nice layering with the piano. The woodwinds and melodic percussion are really cool too. I also really enjoy the 7/8 time mixed with 6/8.

Everratic responds:

Thank you for the review and takeover feature!

[The Lake Ice Cracks]

I don't have a critique. I just wanted to say this track is awesome! I really like the atmospheric guitar. The chiptune part was also a nice touch.

[Chocnoon - Satan's Blood (DCLXVI)]

I'm scared.

MWMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM responds:

Tfw you've been skipahdahba doo dap dup dup bibdybop-ing since 2020, but you forget to write something until now. This changed my bap bap bap skiipahdahba dup on life. It's been one of the songs I keep coming back to.

Spadezer responds:

It's okay, I still skabeeparate you

[Ashen Fury]

Instant Favorite! Wonderful job from you guys!

[AIM - Hope's Memory]

Awesome composition and progression! I like the guitar and the subtle piano effects. I think the guitar and the flute could have benefited from a little more reverb. Given the scene in the art piece shows wide open spaces as well as isolation, I think a distant-sounding reverb would reflect this perfectly.
Like I said before though, very solid composition. It really gives a sad and bleak feeling. You've earned yourself a follow.

[I Wrote A Song]

I like the part that goes DOOOWAAAUUP WWAAOOU.

Quarl responds:

Thanks Ace, you always know exactly what to WWAAOOU <3

[Last battle]

Love it. I really like how well it picks up at the 1:00 mark. Also great use of lead guitar, and the track loops very well.

Arponax responds:

Yet still the best of my guitar playing is still to be learned, muhehe :D

Glad you enjoy.
