Genclops's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Super Mario Castle: The R]

arrangements

Choosing which instruments play which notes is a very important part of composition. the notes written by the previous composer did all the work for you in this song.
Your instruments sound terrible!! did you seek out the cheapest sounding string synths you could find?
This may have been ok if you had been more careful to choose your instruments... but i dont see what the big deal is about this. I had high hopes from reading the reviews.

I LOOOOVE this song... but that doesnt mean the fact that you added some cheesy drums and made the sounds different (and inferior) makes it brilliant...

[Sleep To Dream]

rapper sounds...

Just like linkin park.. suuucks.

juggaloallday responds:

linkin park is sick. Im glad i sound like them.
Thanks dude : )

[-Orr- Larry's Theme]

FF much?

It sounds like a watered down corny version of every Final Fantasy battle song ive ever heard.

DavidOrr responds:

haha I'm not sure I hear the relationship, maybe it's one of the FF's I haven't played? Thanks for the review!

[Swamp Monster]

hmm

I dont normally take the time to review music... but I really think this song is awesome. It makes me feel like a kid again haha

[Piano/strings rap beat]

meh.. nah

I cant help but feel like you dont listen to much hip-hop.
I find it hard to write negative reviews, because music is art, and speaking poorly about ones art can be very hurtful. I dont mean to sound hurtful to you... this just has a very elementary sound to it.
The drum loop is terrible, and they keyboard/keyboard strings sound cheesy. I dont think you communicate your chord structure as well as it could be communicated.
maybe a good bass line would make this sound a bit more complete? It just sounds either unfinished or like you didnt put much time into it.
