houzatosis's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

It's an interesting track, but there's way too much clipping in the bass and kicks to be engrossing. I really like that lead that comes in at 1:38, maybe adding some reverb and delay through a high pass filter might add some more shimmer.

PHIctitious5 responds:

VERY helpful, thank you! i thought about laying a pad but something in me wanted ugliness at some parts.

[Sunny Days (VOPM&FM7)]

I love how organic the synthlines are. You're keyboard skills shine through on this track

[Ascension]

This is good. I like the 2-step garage rhythm, it works surprisingly well with the airy feel. Great EQing of the throwback samples, too :)

Waidmann responds:

Thanks mate :D
Much appreciated.

[dub mosquito (nearly done)]

this is lovely

you put the bass in just the right spots! Did you record the sax and guitar samples yourself?

snoballandthmonyshot responds:

ta and/or yeah. sorry, been watching archer
love Px

[Dreams {durn}]

nice work

I love the way it eases into the rhythm. It's like an unanswered cry to a long lost memory. I really wish I had my headphones with me instead of listening through crappy laptop speakers, heh.

durn responds:

aye, I was kinda thinking it's almost like a system reboot at the transition to the break/bridge and a spaceship launching off at the peak of the build. to be in space is a dream we all share, I think. :)

thanks for the listen and your thoughts on the piece. :)

[FF | Passion]

nice work

I especially like the Rhodes sound. Everything is just so mellow and chill

freddyfinger responds:

thanks and nice icon

[Bushido Blade]

my liege

you win so many internets it's not even funny

[(8BIT) Thriller]

Nice tune

Did you use a tracker or some sort of plug-in to get the chip sound?

Also, I wasn't sure if you've ever heard Saitone's remix of this song. Give it a listen if you ever get the chance

[[SD] Voyage]

smooth as silk

I like the progression, and the bass is very addictive.

SupraDarky responds:

Thanks!
