acheney's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[[HU] - Birdshot]

some less bitcrushing would have been nice personally, but the sound design and arrangement here is stellar, and this whole song in general is one of the most creative things i've heard so far from anyone. keep collaborating, you two!

CHEEZ2600 responds:

Thank you very much. Really.
It was about time that I collaborated with Salt and so far the results are fantastic. We may end up working on an album sometime, but who knows at this point, amirite? =^v^=

[Peace]

that strange acid sound is rather harsh on the ears. it sounds like its clipping or it has too much high end; i recommend filtering it to fix this. everything else here is very pretty, though.

GeometryDashMau5Kids responds:

sip, para la otra hare mas filtros y bajar el volumen. gracias por tu reseña ;)

[R~ "East Wind" wip]

this wip sounds very good! it's nice to see someone making trance for the first time very well. i understand not being able to finish music too.

[R~ "Gecko"]

i like it! the middle part actually is pretty good, i like its fusion of speed and melody. the rest of the song is very good too; the melodies are very danceable and fun. you've really mastered the 2000's era techno style here.

Ryzmik responds:

Thanks for the review! I'm glad to know you liked it and compared it with the 2000's techno :D

[The World is on Fire]

intense. the distorted samples really add to the atmosphere of this song. i wasn't all about the minimal sections, where the only two things being heard are the drums and wubs, but they work in the context of the song. great work!

tbh the techno trio needs to be brought back

[I couldn't remember my name, I couldn't remember my life, all I knew was that I was gone forever.]

god damn, this song literally changed my life. on this day every year, i always make sure to come back to this song, and it's just as exhilarating and beautiful as when i first listened to it so long ago.

everything that you've done here is perfect. i really don't know what to say.

[{dj-N} Throb {WIP}]

the dissonant tritone really gives an eerie feeling, and the way you've used it here is absolutely skillful. everything else here, including the arrangement and mixing, is great too! can't wait to see the full song

dj-Nate responds:

Check out the description for the updated project. Thanks for the review :)

[F1 2011 - Turkey GP]

best use of a blast beat i've ever heard

[Sacrifice in the Storm - Demo]

very good for a rough draft! those riffs are killer! personally, i do wish that the drums were more clear, instead of being obscured by the guitar, but i like them like this too!

FarFromSundown responds:

Thank you so much! I actually just put out a version with vocals if you're interested! :)

[Vista Sounds - Must Be]

i'm not sure why this is tagged as ambient, even though it's dubstep, but that doesn't matter. everything here is great, including the melodies, sounds, and mixing. i like how this doesn't have any real "drops" or other section and instead simply flows along. it makes it very calm. great job, i always enjoy seeing new things from you!

also, congrats on the frontpage!

Vista-Sound13 responds:

This review means a lot to me, I appreciate it, thanks!

EDIT: I really didn't think this was dubstep, because I didn't put any wobbles, growls, or other dubstep basses. I put electronic drums, but apparently, they are dubstep drums.
