octopus58's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Subconscious Echos]

Sounds like music that's very fitting for some futuristic alien society, as you mix some ethnic/world sounding tribal music with some more modern dance/trance style stuff. It's a really cool mix! The intro was long but worth it, and I like how the song carefully develops over a larger period of time. The feeling is very magical and explorative, and very unfamiliar which is why I mentioned the alien thing earlier. I honestly really like it and I think you did an amazing job once again! Keep up the awesome work as always :)

Midnights-Ocean responds:

Indeed. I love me some sci-fi feelz. I was very happy with the balance of elements in this. I'm glad you agree! I like giving more space for evolution, even if it means a longer run time. A worthwhile adventure, always takes time IMO. Thanks again! So glad you like. ^_^

Звучит как микс Synthwave и Hiphop , результат очень классный! Мне особенно нравятся колокольчики которые ты использовал. Это третьи трек который я слышу от тебя сегодня, класс! Так держать :D

G2961 responds:

Спасибо!

[im not calm.]

Красиво :)
Медленная мелодия очень хорошо вливается с перкуссией, и с амбьянсами которые ты использовал. Так держать!

G2961 responds:

Спасибо! :D

[happy death.]

Очень странный трек, не обычный, но очень интересный. Типа счастливы, но тональность на пианино звучит грустно и немного страшно. Инструменты которые ты использовал очень подходят и подчеркивают атмосферу трека. Как обычно, так держать!

G2961 responds:

Спасибо!!!

[Anthropocene Liftoff]

Oooooh this really sounds like a launch/liftoff song, love it! The ramping up energy, the exciting atmosphere, and just the general hype and happiness in this song is perfect. I think you hit exactly what you were going for! It's also very dancey and happy sounding. I love the grainier instruments you used in combination with some chiptune sounding stuff and other modern instruments. My favorite is the synth that has cool melodies towards the beginning and end. Awesome stuff, keep it up!!

[Videogame World]

Definitely feels happy and bouncy, I like it! Kind of makes me think of the nostalgic feeling of playing a lot of older flash games haha. The trance gates felt like an awesome addition to already amplify the song, and I also like the soft rounded lead. The bassline and some other elements also reminded me of hampsterdance for some reason lol (in a good way) but the song in general still sounds very nice and original. Great work, keep it coming!

MusicBySpektral responds:

thanks for the response! I'm glad you liked it :D

[meowoof]

I love the crushed sounds mixed with the more modern/clean instruments here! It's a really cool style over the already great melody. Which speaking of, the melody sounds really pretty and happy, and dancey too. I like how the instruments all take turns and have time to shine, and just the instrument choices in general. Ending is very pretty too. Awesome stuff, keep it up!

[promising.]

Как обычно, у тебя не бывает скучных треков :)
Этот трек очень красивы, даже космический какой то. Слушая это я заражу ощущаю очень лёгким и в полной релаксации. Опять ты выбрал инструменты которые отлично подходят друг другу, и создают офигенную атмосферу. Так держать, рад новому треку!!

G2961 responds:

Спасибо больше за хороший и честный отзыв!

[Neo Street]

Ooh, another nice song! Love the FM sound on this, and the progression is very interesting. This definitely feels like a mix of something that would be more futuristic, but also has so much classical 80s music elements. Would totally fit some neon lit night time street in some game. Once again great work, keep it coming!

JustDen responds:

Thanks!!! I actually love fm synthesis it's great

[Retro Madness]

Fun sounding experiment! I like the song that came out of it, it sounds pretty exciting and adventurous. The lead instruments you used are cool, and the compressed percussion also adds a lot to the energy. It's also nice that you didn't stick to strictly one style of retro/chiptune, but you used stuff like genesis instruments with some arcade sounds, and more modern pads etc.. This song feels like it would fit perfectly in some kind of intense snowboarding level in a game. Great work, keep it up!

JustDen responds:

Thx! Btw i like retro sounds!
