OVERSCORE's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Wasteland]

Very clean and solid atmosphere, perfectly captures the title. The mixing is fine, but the drums are a bit lifeless like @vekon said. A bit more reverb on some of the melodic elements could have also sounded neat. Hope this sees use in the death match!

Dynamic0 responds:

Thanks for a review! I am personally fine with the drums, although I understand it may seem lifeless. And there is less reverb than I expected there will be. Thanks for your support!

[Escape The Abyss]

The atmosphere is very well done, you definitely have something to be proud of there! The sound design is executed very well too! I love how dark the ambient sections sound. The lead at the end is a nice way to climax the track, and the chords sound cool. Really neat track that had a lot going for it, I think you can probably pass this round with this one!

EspyoNG responds:

I appreciate your review! As you heard from the track, I just went for a very atmospheric tone this time. I am glad you enjoyed it so much!

Statistically, 1 in 4 people make it to the Finals, so that doesn't seem impossible. I hope you're right!

[JOURNEY. (interlude)]

This sounds soooooo good, holy hell. It’s so smooth and clean like everything you make. Love that saturated bass, it really fills the track. Super cool beat, glad you’re feeling better!

datboi7os responds:

Thank you so much!! This review really means a lot! <33

Drum N Phonk??? Sounds interesting, but maybe a little empty. Could’ve had a bit more variety as well, but that can slide considering it’s an ID/experiment. I would want to hear more of this this style!

VaeArt responds:

First thank you second i agree its empty and well i make no promises this was a fun style to work in but i dont really have any more music ideas in mind maybe 2 lyrical pieces but thats really it

[Struggle]

Writing in complex time signatures is so fun and rewarding! This piece is absolutely beautiful, I love how the track just flows… I wish I could play like this, keep it up!!
EDIT: I have a song that I did recently in 15/4, the only reason I got through it was because I just subdivided it in varying ways throughout the whole thing. Challenging, but fun and rewarding when done right!

Solacitude responds:

It surely is a very interesting exercise, it opens the door to new ideas. I often add weird time signatures in my pieces, but rarely sticking to an odd one like this.
I had to record a couple hours to get very little material, 13/8 is hard on the brain 😀
I couldn't ask for more than another composer telling me it's beautiful 😊
Thank you very much for the kind words!

[Epizode]

There are no words to describe this, the atmosphere is just so on point. I am fully immersed in these sounds, well done. Congrats on getting the opportunity to compose for a movie, I think you nailed it!

LordAndiso responds:

Thank you soo much!! :)

[lovesicckkkk]

This is the most funky, upbeat thing I have heard today! I love the soloistic melodies you have interspersed through the entire track.

LordAndiso responds:

I am glad that I funked your day up with happy vibes! :]

[CF24 - Mossy grotto]

Humble beginnings… like REALLY humble…

Creeperforce24 responds:

Too humble man

[Elysium Nights (Instrumental)]

Ayyye congrats on yet another deserved FP!

G2961 responds:

Thank you so much, OVERSCORE!!

[Sky]

Woah!! That was a lot of really cool melodies, you seem to know a lot about music! The way you brought it to that climax at the end was very cool. That fast white noise sound at the beginning was an odd choice tho… it’s very distracting from the other cool elements you have, and it’s a bit louder than necessary.
Overall, still a very cool chiptune song!

BuryBoyGD responds:

I'm sorry if the white noise at the beginning is too loud; I'm very new to FamiStudio, in fact the first time I used it was yesterday. There was no button to change volume for some reason, so I couldn't really do much about it. Thank you so much for the feedback! It helps a lot :)
EDIT: Fixed the audio issue, hope the changes saved.
