anthonyragus's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Aster - Sakura]

Ethereal, I like this downtempo-ish side of the breakcore sound, almost sounds like future garage, apart from the thick, layered drum breaks. Awesome tune

[First Bossfight]

Heck yeah, bring the funk. I dig the pitch bends. To me the end, especially the fast drums, hints at an interesting thought: 8-bit breakcore. Cool tune

[Sad Clay Doll]

Interesting harmonic journey. Is that bitonality I hear at 3:11? This is almost a tracker version of fast jungle, like breakcore. I'm interested in hearing what you'll write next.

Thx for the review, but I don't really make music anymore.
Not saying I never will again, but it got to a point where I stopped enjoying to post music here.

Woohoo, this is super cool. I sense melancholia in this piece, blended with nostalgia. Great use of tracker. I dig the key change at 2:53. Great work

[SPURME x Cvmpliant - Digital Angel]

my legs have become wings please help

[Milky Way Belt]

I'm enjoying going through your portfolio, some absolute bangers like this one. I'm not a huge fan of the way the repeated quarter notes in the melody after 1:03, but that climactic payoff at 2:46 is schmoney.

[New Guac]

This is such a blast; great form and instrumentation, compelling harmony and rhythm. The mix is good, but I would have loved to hear louder melody and much louder bass. Super fun to listen. I selfishly demand more music from you.

Stargame responds:

Lol, those were the two things I realized needed fixing after completing the song with 3 minutes to spare for the contest xD demand away! I've got a huge amount of music coming down the pipeline slowly but surely, including a new album

[barkley and olajuwon's world famous prime ribs]

Mmmm, ribs. This is a lot of fun to hear, nice and emotinoally uplifitng. I think it can be even more emotional and balanced with some mix tweaking, but this is still captivating as is. Another order of post rock and ribs please

[Moonlight | AlphaStorm]

This is so cool, super emotional but not overwhelming. The cyclical chord progression and tremolo melody give me strong post rock vibes. Nice intermittent doubling on the melody, too. I can't wait to hear what you write next.

AlphaStormMusic responds:

Yeah dude! The tremolo guitar part with the delay before the amp is ripped STRAIGHT from Post-rock! It's one of my favorite sounds, just because it's a nice ambient touch!

Thank you very much for the kind words!
Best and take care!

[Disintegrating]

This sounds and captivates exactly how you intended. That looping pad is indeed ethereal, complimented by simple yet interesting bassline and drum layers. I would usually suggest more variation or some stylistic something, but somehow not this time. There's something trance-inducing in the blatant repitition, and I like this exactly how it is. Fantastic work

Thank you for the compliments :)
