acheney's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Submerge]

really catchy, probably your best so far

OVERSCORE responds:

Thank you! Means a lot

[Dirty Needles [Jamuary Day 3]]

your bass sound design is so damn cool

Quarl responds:

Thank you so much acheney. Kind words are always appreciated :D

[Happy Town (Jamuary Day 3)]

the orchestral instruments feel slightly... plastic. not too much, but just enough to get on my nerves. maybe try using more dynamics? (with the exception of the harpsichord) the composition is nice though!

GlaceonDash responds:

Yeah this was, rushed. Really Rushed.

[JAMUARY 2023 (day 3) - My Hello Kitty Car]

what scale is this in? it feels really off balance and i love it

Viraxor responds:

haha it switches rapidly between scales. so really it doesn't have a scale

[Kill Those Beats]

pretty cool, the screechy wubs remind me of doctor p. not really sure if dubstep had to have a post-genre, but it sounds good so i'll go with it

[The Jester of Luigi's Diner (JAMUARY 2023 DAY 1)]

somehow the silliness of this song works thanks to its sheer musicianship. i really like how snappy the drums are! the chords and vocoded vocals sound really good

great start for your jamuary :)

[Spooktober Forever! (JAMuary Day 2)]

yay!!

really cool time signature, cool atmosphere, great job for something you'd normally spend a month making! almost reminds me of the style of unfa (an lmms artist i like)

only criticism is that some sounds are a bit unbalanced in terms of volume, and maybe the sweepy bass is too heavy in the bass? some ott could help i think

GlaceonDash responds:

Very interesting review!

And yeah, some of the sound mixing aspects were rushed, like REALLY rushed.

[[Day 1] It Lives]

woah, cool jazzy chords

good luck to you this jamuary :)

Scareev responds:

ty!! jazzy chords are the ones who get me in surprise sometimes

[(.80HowUFeel80.)]

the mixing feels... muffled, somehow. perhaps you could try cutting the low mids or boosting the highs? the songwriting is nice, besides the lack of a cool bass (at least to my taste)

[The FIRST Night]

very mysterious, would have been cool if you continued it as an experimental hip-hop thing imo
