OVERSCORE's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Confrontation]

Very well composed and epic piece!! This'll do great in the contest fs. However, I wish the instruments could have sounded a bit more realistic, but I understand youre just working with what you have. I also think the drums could be a bit louder. But despite that, this song still sounds quite compelling! The guitar and quick string patterns really sell that. I can for sure hear the Matrix influence here! This piece really gets it right in a lot of areas… but I think your composing skills shine through the most on this piece. All of the complex drumwork, chords, rhythms especially… truly an accomplishment. Great work Dynamic0!

Dynamic0 responds:

Thanks for taking your time! These are the most realistic sounds I have, of course except the bass and the pad. My goal here was to make every part unique, it's not only Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, and I think it went well. Once again, thanks for the feedback, you've made my day :)

[I can't stop [Album remaster]]

This seriously reminds me of Wicked by Avenza, and I LOVE that song… great work here! Love that jazzy riff at the second drop. Keep it up!

[Chonky Phonk]

I’m not sure this is exactly phonk, but some of the synths are really interesting! Very acidic sounds
It feels a bit empty in some parts, recommend adding maybe some more reverb or something. Fun song overall, keep it up!

OPFX responds:

Ah yes, needs some more atmospheric depth. Good ear!

[Show The True]

Really atmospheric, has an almost nostalgic vibe. The ear candy really helps with that nature vibe, like the birds chirping and everything. However, I wish the melody wasn’t as repetitive throughout the entire duration of the song. Overall, still a neat song that deserves its spot on the front page!

[OFF MIND.]

Everything is crisp and clean as usual, and ofc the atmosphere is “luscious” as well. Cool song!

datboi7os responds:

Thank you so much!! I wanted to bring back that atmospheric vibe and on the next song the vibes will change a lil bit more!

[Bass Antics]

Catchy, funky, crazy!! That bass certainly does some insane stuff. I love how the style of the song seems to change as it goes on, you’ve packed a LOT into this 2 minutes 36 seconds of music!

[The Sky Fell (feat. BrokenTeeth)]

I knew when I clicked the tag "indietronica" and a breakcore track was the first thing I saw, I was gonna like it. Literally my two favorite styles of music in one

[Starcat - I Love You]

Fun and bouncy glitch hop beat! As usual you’ve got a really fun and vibrant lead, and I love it this time around as well! Your style is so upbeat and I can’t wait to hear more of it, keep it up!

[Spectrum]

Really inferesting sound design in those chord stabs! They sound very fluid, and I suspect they have some color bass influence? The drum pattern is a bit basic but the simplicity works. I will say tho in some parts it feels a little monotonous.
The key change is very solid! The two different keys carry two completely different moods, two completely different interpretations of the exact same context ig. The outro is really cool, I love the ambient noises. It sounds so much different than the rest of the song and I vibe with that.

Making music consistently is a REAL challenge, one that I also struggle with quite a bit. Since I can’t get over that obstacle either I’m not going to try to give you advice bc it will most likely be detrimental… instead I’ll wish you luck in overcoming this and look forward to the music you have in store!

Orenge1 responds:

I absolutely agree with everything you said, but my goal was to get my ass to finish this song, even if it didn't quite hit my inital expectations, at least it got finished in terms of the song length I was aiming for. I decided to still release it although I definitely had my doubts already hitting that publish button. Might still give it an update or two to improve on it more with your feedback. I hope so too that I can overcome this consistancy issue. Thank you so much for your review and support! :)

[Autumn Carnival Waltz]

Positively OOZES uplifting energy! Love this upbeat waltz, especially those sections where you go up the chromatic scale in chords— that is a really fun touch to a fun song in general. Nice composition!

Solacitude responds:

Thank you very much! It was quite interesting to compose too, I'm often more on the darker side. The intro kind of contrasts with the rest of this waltz, a bit like being cheered up by entering into the carnival. I feel like it gives the following parts even more uplifting energy :P I'm glad you enjoyed!
