[The Assembly Lines [RobotDay2016]]

Oh wow, this is really cool! :O

It's perfectly balanced, and really interesting too!
I don't think you have reason to feel any sort of shame for making this, it's a very enjoyable listen
^ ^
I definitely wasn't let down. The contrast between all the effects, the percussion, and the more melodic aspects, like the piano, work quite well together!

Here's a small tip. You may want to change one of your tags to "robotday2016"
They'll likely find it anyway, as "rd" has been used previous years. But just in case, Tom said this in his post today:

"...just tag your entry "robotday2016" and we'll find it."

Good luck :3

Quarl responds:

Tag changed :)

Thanks for the kind words! I'm my biggest critic, don't read into my self loathing too much. It sets a horrible example for other people, I really need to figure out how to be an arrogant screw tool.

[Face the Silence]

Well obviously, you already know that I love this :)
I'm glad you decided to upload it here on NG too though :D

Another bonus is that now I was able to add it to my favorites :3
Can't wait for more of your songs!

[Desert Overworld Part 2 - An Oasis with a Water Slide]

Aww yeah! I'd be very surprised if you somehow didn't make it in with this. It's multi-layered, has some great melodies and moods, and as usual stays very true to the chiptune and videogame style :D

It'd be interesting if you at some point happen to get johnfn as a judge. I have no idea if he'll be biased, or extra harsh on you because of his own style :'D

Either way, I look forward to seeing what else you have in store for us in the coming rounds ;)

Yahtzei responds:

Thank you so much, LSD! :D fingers crossed! ^^

By the way, I've been looking through some of your previous stuff, and your composition 'A Dance with a Shadow' is incredible. That style of solo piano is amazing and fits your sister's story perfectly. My girlfriend and I just sat and watched in awe last night at your YouTube video of you playing it.

Anyway, thanks again and best of luck to you in the competition and in general :)

[The Road Less Travelled]

This is gorgeous. Brilliant work :3

DSykMusic responds:

Thanks!

[A Tick Attack]

:O

Sounds so frickin' good... Amazing work!
Wow.

sebastien01 responds:

Thank you very much!! It makes me more comfortable to keep this track for the NGAUC tryout when you tell me something like this :D You just gave me a self-confidence level up about this song. It's really appreciated.

[Shadow Noir]

Finally had time to listen to this! I was so excited to hear the full project now that it is finished, so I saved the listen until I had the time to enjoy it completely :)
I'm really impressed with the quality of everyone's work :O

I hope that more people will find this, and get to hear it! It is indeed a relatively unique project here on NG, and a great one at that.

The old style in this really shines through, and it's brilliant!

Great job everyone :D
I'm glad that some of my music was featured in as awesome a project as this one :3

JayWEccent responds:

Thank you very much. A lot of love went into this. It is amazing really because of LadyArsenic. She had also edited Episode 5 of Monsters. She will be doing the other episodes up to 10. I am blessed to be able to work with such talented friends. It has really worked out well. Im glad I changed editors with Shadow.

[T-Logic - The Seraph's View]

Ambient music <3

I was actually supposed to respond to the review you left on "Vivo Revenis", but I just realized that only Jordi can do that xD
I think I managed to respond to every unreplied to review that you've left me today! I may well have missed some of them, so do tell me if that's the case!

As for this piece, I actually like how simplistic it is. The melodies actually sounds a bit like Lunacy Echo's work! Not sure if you noticed that yourself. They're rather pleasant! :D

This is perfect music for just chilling to a bit, when one wants to relax. You always use so interesting pads too!

You know my heart can always be bought with ambient stuff though :p
Keep it up!

I'm eventually going to review some of your other tracks, but I think I've had my fill for today. Hope you're doing well! :3

TaintedLogic responds:

Thanks for the review, Ale! No worries about any reviews you may or may not have responded to. ;) Nice to finally read all of your replies!

I didn't immediately draw the comparison between the melodies here and those of LunacyEcho, but I can understand that connection. The pads are a little overly-convoluted for an otherwise simple piece, but I smoothed them over with so much reverb they basically just all roll together like waves. :)

"You know my heart can always be bought with ambient stuff" --> that's the plan! :)

"Hope you're doing well!" --> I am, thanks! Busy, but well.

Hope you have enjoyed midsummer, my friend, and thanks again for the review! ^^

[Scratch!]

Surprisingly addictive...

sebastien01 responds:

Great! I couldn't ask more from this little loop. :) It's really short and not much memorable, no melody or anything complex into it. It's all for the beat and the scratch. I was trying to make it sound as a beastie boys like beat. But well, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the review ;)

[The Journey Home]

I agree wholeheartedly with larrynachos. Wonderful job here! :O
You may not be 100% satisfied with the creation, but I am 100% satisfied with the listen :3

Bosa responds:

Excellent! Always enjoy hearing from you, and thank you for the encouragement!
