Auz's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[arceus battle remix]

Nice job

To be honest I thought the intro was nice. The sounds in the beginning were weird, but I liked them anyhow. Also, I think I heard the Stone Tower Temple theme after about 2:05. It mixed quite nicely with the rest of the song in my opinion.

For the rest there were some parts which I found a little less interesting. But that's probably not your fault, I guess it was the same in the original. Also I couldn't really imagine this to be a theme in a Pokemon game to be honest, but again that's probably due to the original and not because you remixed it too much or anything.

Overall 9 out of 10, 5 out of 5. Nice job.

[Fusion Ridley]

Great

Metroid Fusion? I haven't played that game, but it does remind me very much of the Ridley boss battle theme in Metroid Prime. I suppose they always use a similar tune in Ridley's boss battles then.

Anyway, it sounded great to me. It was very high paced which makes it very suitable for battle music. Also the drums were indeed well done.

Overall 9 out of 10, 5 out of 5.

[Zelda : Midna's Lament Remix]

Very good

If I remember correctly this was the music at the part where you had to bring Midna to the castle after she was attacked by Zant. I gotta say you made a nice remix out of it. It sounds familiar, yet it's very different from the original. Your version has a lot more beat, guitars and energy into it. It wouldn't suit the moment in the game at all, but here it's a nice listen.

Overall 9 out of 10, 5 out of 5. Keep up the good work.

[metroid prime 2 echoes title]

Meh..

I think the tones were a little too high and I agree with some of the former reviewers that it didn't sound much like a Metroid Prime song. Also, I'm not sure how close you stuck to the original but it didn't feel like the several parts of this song blended together all that well.

Still it wasn't bad. I've heard worse and it was a good attempt.

Overall 7 out of 10, 3 out of 5.

[Slam Shuffle (FF6)]

Nice

I've played a lot of FF6 lately until I lost my save file and I still remember this theme well. It was from that town called Zozo if I'm correct, one of the places I hated most in the entire game.

The music was indeed very catchy though and the remix you made is quite nice. It sounds good enough for a FF6 remake, if there ever will be one.

Overall 9 out of 10, 5 out of 5. Keep up the excellent work.

[Fallen Divine X]

Repetive indeed

I basicly agree with what some people already said earlier: This song was kinda repetive. I mean it indeed started out pretty good and when the piano kicked in it sounded really nice. Then I was expecting for some other instruments to go with the tune, but it just stayed at a piano and a choir. And they were both playing/singing the same tune over and over again pretty much. You might as well cut the song at about 1 minute and turn it into a loop.

Overall 7 out of 10, 3 out of 5.

Alright, than I'll take the feedback for it. thanks anyways. ;3

[FF7Battle(Final)-Metaljonus]

Sounds good, but...

I don´t really know what to think of this to be honest. Sure it sounds pretty good. But I believe it´s actually not much more than the standard battle theme with some basic metal guitar lines under it. I could be wrong, but it just doesn´t seem all that special to me. The fanfare at the end sounded really good though. Best part of the song in my opinion, even if it was short.

Overall 7 out of 10, 3 out of 5.

Metaljonus responds:

It's fine man, but think of it like this. Why would I want to remake and totally ruin this awesome theme by adding more shit to it. Yeah there is the "basic" metal guitar lines under. But yeah gotta think about the drums and how I slightly rearranged it. Thanks for listening guy.

[Kryptonite (Acapella)]

Interesting

Interesting to do a song this way. I don´t think I´ve heard a song done this way in the AP before. The vocals sounded pretty good in my opinion. They were not perfect, but I suppose it´s really hard to get everything right. Anyway, I thought this was cool. Keep up the good work.

Overall 9 out of 10, 5 out of 5.

[Whales Dancing]

Not quite what I expected

The title was a bit misleading here. I was thinking about a very mysterious, beatiful song with whale sounds in it. Well the whale sounds were there, but I wouldn´t really describe this as beautiful, or relaxing like you described it. And I can´t imagine whales dancing on this either. It was just strange in my opinion. But I do like the psychedelicness in this song.

Overall 7 out of 10, 3 out of 5.

[Pokemon (G/S) Kanto Gym Leader]

Pretty good

Are you sure this is from G and S? Because I think I can remember this song being featured in the original versions as well. Oh well, it doesn´t really matter. Anyway, I must say I kinda like the faster pace you gave the song. The weird synthesizer (?) sounds are less to my liking though. Still it´s a nice remix of the original version.

Overall 7 out of 10, 3 out of 5. Keep up the good work.

It's a remix of the Kanto Gym Leaders in GSC. The reason it sounds familiar is because it's slightly different from the RBY Gym Leaders.

Thanks for the review.
