octopus58's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Intolerable Thoughts]

Very spooky, but also very cinematic. Could work perfectly for some kind of phase in an animation or game! I really love how you use tremolo strings to illustrate what I can only imagine is a stressful emotion, and some pitching effects especially towards the end that make things sound a little more sinister. This is great, keep up the nice work :)

[Asleep Again]

This is so relaxing, and most importantly it sounds like something that would be perfect for a video game! I can see it being used for cutscenes, gameplay segments, so much more because it just sounds so overall fitting. It's so happy, and definitely very upbeat, the variation is also great and it never stays in one spot. I think you did a really great job with this song, I hope you make much more :)

[FD - Three Demos]

For demos, these are very beautiful and intricate backtrack sounding tracks. With some more instrumentation, I can see these being amazing full tracks at some point in the near future. Keep up the great work :D

[Ardolf - Split]

I love me some fast house music, this sounds awesome! Sounds a little clown themed too kinda but not sure if that was the intention haha. The popping sounds combined with the very hardcore progressive melody make for a great combo, and this can definitely work awesome for a rhythm game like FNF. Keep up the awesome work!

[-Spectral Dunes-]

I like the mix of lofi and more of a rock-metal ish style, very creative! I feel like I even hear a lot of other sub-electronic genres too in this. This could definitely work for a game level for sure, and it has an awesome progression throughout the whole track. Very beautiful instrumentation and variation as well. Keep up the awesome work, you do great at it :)

Thank you so much!

[H~ "Preview of some kind"]

Oh man I wish this was longer, it sounded so nice! You set up such a great ambience there, the train track addition was definitely a good idea too. I like the mood, the set up, and the lead pluck that comes in a little later. I hope you turn this into a full song eventually :D

ssymboint responds:

Thank you. I will. :)

[Desolation]

This sounds like a mix of so many different things, in a very cool way! I can hear dance, trance and hardstyle all in one. It's also very climactic and impactful, yet chaotic and crazy, just all over the place. The mixing is surprisingly pretty good for a hardstyle song too! Keep up the great work :)

Glad to hear that, thanks!
