AceMantra's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[More than Coincidence]

It isn't often that I come across such a dynamic and emotional piece. I'm amazed that you made this in such a short amount of time. It's so beautiful and very inspiring. Keep up the amazing work. :)

Columbers responds:

Working quickly is one of my biggest strengths and weaknesses; it’s easy to overlook details if I only spend 2-3 hours making something, but this turned out good. Thanks for the review!

[One Day]

Bah, assignments are meant to be done last minute anyways. This is beautiful!

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Hahha, they ure are xD
Thanks for the support :DDD!!!

[Flow]

I don't know what you're apologizing for. This is track is actually quite good! Of course it's going to take longer to if it's something outside of what you normally do. That's just how learning works. Don't beat yourself up over it.

I like what you have here, so keep practicing. Shoot me a PM if you ever want a critique.

zybor responds:

Thank you for your words! :) I'll definitely shoot you some PM for future projects. Btw, I still haven't forgotten the proposed collab project we supposed to do. Sorry about the delay, man. :D

[A Mirage of Heaven]

I have no critique. I just wanted to say good job. It's hard to compose with a lot of other things happening at once. It is especially hard during school, but you managed to make something beautiful. Great work. :)

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Thanks, man! You're very right; just today I wrote a 5-page assignment + an exam. Even so, I tried to find a little bit of time here and there for music, as it's my passion ^___^

[A Date by the Fountain]

Beautiful and well made as always. It really does release a calm feeling.

Bosa responds:

Very good to hear! Thank you!

[Love Never Ending]

I love this piece! It definitely sparks hope and inspiration in me. You were certainly successful in conveying emotion in the music, and that in my opinion is the best part of being a musician.
5/5 gold star 100% forever! :)

Bosa responds:

:):):)

Thank you so much! I was a bit nervous about this piece, but I am very happy to see that it came out well. I appreciate everything you do here in our community on Newgrounds, and I look forward to seeing your music take off and soar! You have great talent already and you will overcome the obstacles!

[Battle In The Halls]

This is crazy awesome! Good job!

Ceevro responds:

Thank you kindly! I hope I can keep up this level of recording after I get my shoulder surgery...should make the competition a bit more interesting, methinks!

[A Hero's Return]

How is this only a 4 star rating? This is awesome! I really like the percussion you have going there. This piece has so much potential. My only critique is that the bass could maybe use a little boost. Not a lot, just a little. Maybe try some Col Legno mixed with the bass spiccato to add to some impact to your hits. It might not work, but it's something to try.

CloakedSoup responds:

Thank you! Maybe it's because I listen to more classical music, but I've always been hesitant to boost the bass too much haha. I think this kind of music definitely calls for it though! I'm starting to get more into writing this kind of 'commercial' music (versus modern music written for a concert hall) and also learning how to properly mix it to sound like more modern Hollywood/trailer/film music. I'm not too worried about the composition side of things, but critiques like this help me to get my mixes to sound cleaner as I move forward, so thank you again!

[Tower of Despair]

Even with one recovering ear I can tell this is a good piece. Very emotional. I like the runs you have starting at 1:09. You are also very good with loops; I must have listened to this a dozen times without realizing it.
I'm glad you were there for your coworker. There are never enough good people in the world comforting those who need it.

zybor responds:

Thank you for your review.

I hope your ear will recover. take care and stay safe! :(
