HydraliskElite's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Forgive me Newgrounds!]

Great.

I like how the song goes from a normal beat, into a full scene. It can really fit a flash's title. The only thing that really got me out was how the song ended. The song can loop, yes, but it isn't as perfect as some other songs are. How come the song didn't get that much attention?

I mean, the song's really great, although it only had about, six reviews (excluding mine), and 400 - 500 views since a year of it's release. I have no idea why great songs (like this) are left unnoticed. You have a load of potential at Audio, keep working on those tracks! Maybe someday you'll fix the song so it loops (that is, if you really want to, since a minute feels really like a loop, more then a song).

Pandora-Tranquil responds:

I definitely agree with the last part, and I agree with the criticism completely. I tend to leave people wanting more for fear of being repetitive. Which has always been a major flaw in my music. However as I progress, I believe I am fixing all my mistakes and making much better tracks!

And thank you for the comment about it deserving attention haha, that was nice of you.

[Saw Theme Scrapsound Mix]

Great remix.

It's extremely shorter then the original song, (1:50 shorter) but, that doesn't make it any less dull. I like how you did the main course with the guitars, that part was the best in the song. I'd rather expand it bigger, but then it would pretty much be repetitive, so it can't be helped. It was a great addition to the flash 'Jigsaw'.

[Starcraft Pylon Mix]

Ah.

The song brings back so many memories of StarCraft in the younger days. As I tried playing the original Campaign over and over (until two years later, where I found out how to play Online). Always had to make those pylons for Protoss, since that's what I always liked about that race: The Pylons give additional building space, and PSI. Quite opposite of the Terran's 'Supply Depots,' that's for sure. Great job!

[Starcraft Terran(loop)]

Repetitive, yet fun.

As the song is a well done loop, it's only based on the main chorus of the original Terran Theme song. The song can get pretty annoying if looped too long, as the beats are a tad bit high in the pitch. Regardless, it's one of the best Terran remixes I've heard, as the other ones either put too many beats in it, or too quiet. Great going!

[Discordant Nocturne]

I love all your music.

Everything in your music is so fitted together perfectly as ever. They're still crisp as they were last year, and the year before that as well (I never listened much to your 2005 stuff though). Why aren't you sponsored for producing music, since you really have a gift for composing electronic and classical genre music, hell, even BOTH together (as this formidable piece is). This track in particular is my favorite out of everything in your library (Melodic Solace comes to a close second).

The song was a bit repetitive, but it's better then the entire song being a one big gigantic repetitive loop eh? I'm so glad that I decided to review the song today, rather then tomorrow. Keep producing your music Ngawang, it's terrible to have a gift to compose such great music, and not use it at all! Great job, I wish I could get my hands on the high quality version (before of the 'incident'), but oh well; this is better then nothing!

[ParagonX9 - Chaoz Impact]

Insane.

Almost a year to make!? Holy- and the wait was actually worth it! It's a great addition to your 'Chaoz' section of your audio pieces. You get like, a review on each piece possible every hour or second hour. To have that going, it's a really great feeling (I bet).

The song is a tad bit short though, more like a loop then a song, but I like what you did with 00:30+. I like how the 'agnry faic' transition dances wildly to the song. I like what you also did to the 'g-g-g-go!' near the end. It's a great addition to the audio portal.

[PerfectDark: airbase remix]

Instant Love.

This is your fourth song, and it's the greatest in my opinion! I just love Perfect Dark, along with my best friend. We always rock it out in the Co-op mode. This song was my favorite of all of 'em in the soundtrack in-game.

I really liked what you did for the effect for the background part, and what you did at 00:50 and forward. I'd never realize how great this remix is (even better then the original) if I never checked out the submission. I love the additional beats you added into them. I like it how it fades out in the end.

I hope I encounter more of these kinds of songs in the audio portal. It's my second favorite part of the website. I'd never thought I say this in a review- but: You rock! You have some very well done music on the audio section, keep it up!

[Down the Darkest Road]

Great!

This song reminds me of the last level of Perfect Dark 64, where you're at the Skedar home planet. Kinda also reminds me of Metroid Prime 2 a tad bit, since it's fitted with this kind of music... I guess. A bit repetitive, but still fun to listen to.

Sort of has a Halloween touch to it to, with the plastic graves, skeletons hanging from the tree, and people dressed up as scarecrows, to scare the little kids away from getting their candy. I always smile when I see those videos on television. It's pretty cool to play this when playing a StarCraft map online is going on. Have fun with your music productions.
