OVERSCORE's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[crispy x 3manon - New Orleans Circuit]

This is an incredible blend of genres, I really like how the track gradually develops that DnB feel. The jazz seems to somehow fit in perfectly with the chaotic breaks, which cannot have been easy! Props to both of you, it sounds incredible!

crispybatteryacid responds:

Thanks score! Glad you liked it 🔥

I don’t think this is necessarily phonk, except in instrumentation. But that’s not really a bad thing, in fact I like this unique project a lot! Some critique— the drum beat felt a little underwhelming, especially with the snare being on the weak beats. It made the whole track feel slightly off-kilter in a sense. But, a decent track as a whole! Always good to see you experiment with new genres and styles :)
EDIT: not underwhelming as in quiet (trust me the volume is good), but underwhelming as in weak. This can be caused by the placement of drums on the weak beats (1 and 3).
Just with the volume and the distortion of the drums and the fact that this is a PHONK experiment, I didn’t think that’s what you were going for

Creeperforce24 responds:

Thanks! The reason the beat is so soft is cause if I made it any louder it would start clipping like no tomorrow XD

Ohhh, I see, so the drum beat is weak? Guess I just gotta practice XD… don’t worry, better shi is coming

Beautifully melancholic piano piece! It’s short and simple, but the straightforward arrangement sounds nice. Could definitely use a bit more dynamic variation though, as well as maybe a bit less of a robotic tempo. Very interesting song, keep it up!

zeroizerozero responds:

Thank you for your feedback! I really appreciate it!
Yes, you are right, it could have been developed more interestingly. I am not very confident in writing piano melodies yet, so I can be straightforward.
Tempo can't be automated in flm, which makes it very difficult to work with. I am currently studying other mobile DAWs
I will try to listen to your advice, and thanks for the kind words

[Cave Monsters]

Still has your style, but with a more playful flair. And of course, chiptune instrumentation! I look forward to seeing where this account goes.

[Expeeriemental]

I’ve never heard a song in a scale like this, I love the tantalizing tension it creates throughout the whole song. It always resolves in the most curious ways too, which only adds to the mystique. Truly wonderful piece!

Solacitude responds:

Thank you very much! It truly resolves in weird ways! :) This scale doesn't include many typical chords to play! It was a pretty interesting exercise that forced me out of my comfort zone, but I really would like to include that kind of sound in some compositions in the future

[Lil’ Summin]

Sounds really fun! I love the panning of those droning sound effects, it absolutely helps make the song more immersive. The mixing is decent, however the instrument that stars at the very beginning (synth) could absolutely use a major high end boost. Amazing work for first song uploaded here!

[The Neon Ascent]

FL mobile users are a different breed… I’m working on a collab album and one of the members goes by Gumdrop. They supposedly use FLM, and make some of the CRAZIEST BEATS

G2961 responds:

I am very interested in listening to his songs.

[Shiawase VIP (G2961 Remix)]

Bro this song is so nostalgic for me, I used to play so much Rocket League as a kid and this was my favorite song from the game soundtrack. Absolute throwback hearing it again, but in your style! Would’ve liked to hear some more interesting sound design though, especially in the drops. The supersaw chords and square wave is a little underwhelming, especially in comparison to the original. It’s awesome that you finally got around to remixing this one, it sounds sick!

[walk between]

Reminds me slightly of Xorberax’s stuff, but less electronic. I love these chords and the incredible solo beginning at 3:00! There are so many cool runs and interesting twists and turns… it’s musically fascinating. Keep it up!

[C-OST - 04 Emenation.]

This is such an interesting soundscape, I love how some sounds are slightly out of tune... gives the track so much more character. This definitely sounds retro, I'd say you nailed mood. Really cool soundtrack, it's a shame the project was canceled. Keep it up!

Calamaistr responds:

Yes the dissonances are intentional and I tried to bend it around to give that truly alien atmosphere :) Always good to hear some like it.
