Cimba's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sadistic Desire]

\m/ -- -- \m/

This is pretty awsome, but i found it pretty repetitive and redundant.

Zodiax responds:

haha, yeah, your right, but im glad you still thought it was cool :)

[Midnight's Ocean]

A skeleton of a good song

No offence but it sounds kind of like a three year old banging on a piano. U should add some more rythm to it and some more overall variety to the music. Make it more interesting. Your chord progressions arn't that bad, u just need something to tie them together.

gopotter responds:

I want to, I'm just not exactly sure where to go... because I'm lazy...

[Last Quest]

Pretty Good

I didn't like this quite as well as some of your other things that I have listened to. I do like the oboe though :), you really like oboes don't you :). Please understand that this is constructive criticism: I found this song to be sort of "unintersesting" after a while. I think this is a good general rough draft for a potentially amazing peice. I am seeing a build that leads up to a little climax where maybe the high voices drop out and the low voices play a rythmic little something with maybe a taiko ensemble. But that's just me. Pretty good work overall.

DJ-Chilvan responds:

Thnx! I enjoy constructive criticism. I actually don't like it when someone does the whole 'Mom' approach and is afraid to be candid with their reviews; if things were like that, then how would we ever learn?
Yes, I love oboes, idk why everyone hates them (when I tell my friends who are clarinetists to pick up oboe, they reply with an "eeeewww.") If used properly, oboes are a very interesting instrument. RPGs use them a lot, so that's what gave me an influence.
Yes, this song was among my first songs using my DAW, and my first song focusing on harmony. So it's kind of a "practice." I'm not going to do anymore to this song, but I used what I learned from composing this song to compose other songs, like 'Almany.'
Thanks for the review!

[Joygrounds]

Awsome

I really like this. I personally think that some of the "weird" notes add a certain element of intrest and are "artistic". I am one who apreciates nonconventional harmonies and chords. I really like the main meledy to this, keep it up. This would be very good for a game. It is in that style where you take an idea (your awsome meledy) and play around with it, which is the general style of a lot of arcade style games. good work :). 5/5 10/10

DJ-Chilvan responds:

Thanx! Yes, I remember when I made this song (i was 14, it was the middle of a Wisconsin winter (snow day =) !) , and I was sicker than a rabid dog =P). It was a pretty great track back then. I really want to do a remix, and I eventually will, but time is always against me. Plus I have sooo many other projects I need to work on and finish.
Thanx for the review!

[Veridian Moon]

Awsome

are those taikos at thhe begining?

Aeris responds:

I tapped on my violin and lowered the pitch, it made a nice percussive sound, so it's a tapped violin recording xD

Thanks for the review :3

[~ A New Creation ~]

Very Bright

This inspires such bright emotions, you are a very skilled composer.

Catstuffer responds:

Thanks. I just think up a tune and roll with it. Glad you like it!

Thank you for reviewing!

[Ode to Madalyn]

well done but incomlete without an accompaniment

I agree that a string instrument (probably a cello) would add a lot to this peice

Shadowwalked responds:

I'm currently working on completing the song, by improving the quality and adding another instrument (Probably a cello as you suggested). Thanks for the review!
