LucidShadowDreamer's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Rock Bottom]

I'm sorry so much trouble has hit you. Even so, I'm glad you've managed to draw inspiration from it in order to make this track. It's a very chaotic and experimental piece with a sad and desperate atmosphere, which makes sense considering where your emotions must lie at the moment. Still, I can hear lots of willingness to fight in this track too. So keep on fighting for a better tomorrow, dude. I certainly believe in your power to make it through, so I hope you will continue to have some faith. It's an incredible track.

[NGADM 2017 Quarterfinals Podcast]

Thanks for giving a round of hands with your shoutout!
This thing really has moved along fast! I almost can't believe how quickly time goes by :O
Good thing you're documenting the competition through this podcast, in case anyone misses it ;)

ChronoNomad responds:

Haha, yes--all those hands! Hopefully applauding. Heh.

I know, right? It's gone from being a supremely daunting task in the beginning to something much more manageable, but I find that my free time has also been diminishing, so it all pretty much evens out.

I expect that one day, many years from now, people will come to Newgrounds when it's being run by the descendents of Tom Fulp, merely to explore the intricacies of the 2017 Newgrounds Audio Deathmatch by listening to these podcasts. I mean hey, it could totally happen! :v

[Lugias Song (Piano Test)]

One of my favorite pieces! I play it all the time :D
Nicely done, though you changed key at the end ^ ^

AsternFredAnimations responds:

I realized ^_^; I forgot how to play it so I had to end it up with something, I kinda' want to practice it more :) just the Ocarina on the keyboard and then begin hitting some tangents ;D it sounds really good, I do have an ocarina myself, but it's way harder to play than it looks xP

[Autonomous Anarchy Action]

Great job making it to third place! I think I didn't hear this track during the competition, since Chips V is the first one I wasn't a part of. Luckily, I get to enjoy it now!
I like how you can make something pretty upbeat, but relaxing at the same time :O

Thank you for sharing! It's great :D

zybor responds:

Thank you for your review, LSD! :)

edit, lmao it's 2nd place

[T-Logic - Petrichor]

Ahh, the first CHIPS I didn't participate in :D

Sounds very chill! I think the panning paid off. I can hear the string instrument (guitar-ish sound) clearly in the right ear, and it's nice and relaxing. I think the general balance you went with fits the style of the piece very well. I think the tag calling it lounge music is pretty spot on xD

Hopefully, chips will inspire you to write even more stuff! :3

TaintedLogic responds:

Thanks so much for the review! I'm glad you like the panning. I should use panning more often. I agree about the lounge music characterization - the vibraphone especially makes that so. XD Unfortunately, I'm going through a change in computers right now, so I won't be able to use FL Studio for at least a couple of months, but once I'm back at school I'll try to record some vocals or something. ^^ Thanks again!

[My Firefly]

Whoah, sounds like this is going to be a tight round! Awesome work on this :D
It'll be interesting to see how everything turns out ^ ^

johnfn responds:

ty! =D

[Before the Rain]

No other reivews eh? At least it has a fair amount of downloads!

I'm really just here to remind you I like this, and think you did well in imitating the style :D

Everratic responds:

Thanks for the review, and I'm glad at least two people think so :D

[A Dude Named Grant]

Pretty good job, dude!

Onefin responds:

thanks dude
