Surkol's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pylon]

This is more what I was thinking. ♪♪♪ ヽ( ᐖゞ)

FortressLord responds:

Ace! Kinda surprising to see Pylon on 5* currently (I think your review pushed the anonymous ratings over 4.5) but it could be a sign to keep that style going but with more polish as I improve.
Thanks for the feedback on your last two comments.

[Delirious [To The Edge]]

Sounds great but could sound way better. I find it lacks a strong melody and it's more ambience than anything. You could definitely make the first 11seconds more interesting like preparing the listener for what's to come. I would have liked it more if you had a piano as part of the melody. ┗(ᐖ )┓

FortressLord responds:

I'm happy with that feedback, yeah.

It's kind of made me think about my focus.. I usually/used to focus on kinda melodic and solidly built stuff but have been slowly moving to emulate Liquid DnB. I assumed that sounds popular i.e. 'better' to people, but clearly I get better reviews and rates on my arcadey stuff at least on NG!

[Grief and Horror]

Sounds like something out of FEZ. You could add an easy melody to something like this. Like 1 note every bar with a delay.

[Decipher]

Great melodies but annoying drums :D

[Flux Point (Original Mix) [Cloudburst EP]]

I know you just released this but you deserve more attention( ´•౪•`)

KaixoMusic responds:

This song is actually from a couple of weeks ago, I just uploaded it a lil later on NG :D but thanks!!

[No Worries]

Nice melody and chill beat (=ↀωↀ=)

[Clouds]

Really nice piano. What piano plugin did you use to get that sound?
I heard your feel good song too. The voice samples gets overused just a bit when the melody loops like that with such few samples. One idea is to have 2 samples for the first loop then every second loop you use 2 other samples. So the listener doesn't get as easily bored. Parts like 02:33 are good though.

[Sudachi]

Started of great but the drop could be way better. I think you already know what you can do better. Like using cooler synths and having a more interesting drop. (｡◕‿◕｡)

[Creo - Nemophore]

The thing I love most about your music is that it sounds different.

[drowning (AIM)]

The melodies are really great in your latest songs but I miss a bass. / (´・×・｀)＼

johnfn responds:
