LucidShadowDreamer's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bittersweet]

Oh man, this is such a great piece! I understand that it took so long to make it, as the track is insanely well detailed :O!!
All the melodies are good, the sound design is great as usual, all the transitions are perfect, and the different parts all sound amazing :D
I love how well the ending ties to the beginning.

This is a great track for you to start 2016 with, awesome job :)

Noisysundae responds:

Thanks as always, mate. I have nothing to say this time. :P

[Farewell]

Ooh, what a dreamy vibe! Such tastful melodies. I love it :)
Nice work, dude ;)

ANGELGRIS responds:

Thanks a lot man,I´m still trying to find new sounds and keep innovating a little bit.Really glad you liked the track!

[. Out Of Time .]

Oh wow! This is a very interesting and powerful track to end the album with! :O
It sounds amazing; easy favorite. Awesome chords and use of tension. The ticking does wonders for the atmosphere. The organ is super cool too o.O
I like this in every way! Good job :D

larrynachos responds:

I always look forward to your reviews, LSD :D

Glad you liked the song! I definitely went for a tense feeling. I actually got some gamers to play the song while playing Rainbow Six Siege in a twitch stream, and the suspenseful rise to the climax at 1:22 lined up perfectly with the current situation in-game, where two guys had to clutch the round for the whole team. The players afterwards expressed how well the song worked in that environment. Haha, the first time I've ever done quality assurance testing for one of my songs.

Thanks for the review!

[A Noble Girl]

What a powerful piece of music! This is what I would imagine hearing at a climax (of the happy kind) in an emotional movie :D The emotions remind me a bit of the second half of Lugia's Theme (but with some love thrown in), which is a very good thing. If I had heard this in a movie, I wouldn't have thought twice and realized that it was someone on Newgrounds who made it, but I would've thought it was just a very good soundtrack composer. The dynamic work, the harmonies and instrumentation are just great; the whole piece feels very real. Easy favorite :)

Wonderful job, dude!

Bosa responds:

You are too kind, Lucid. I wanted to express love and heroism in the music. It really helps me when I read that my music has appealed to people in some way. Thank you for your support and encouragement!

[Happy Christmas (Singalong)]

What? This didn't show up in my feed o.O
Good thing I found it through stalking people instead :)
This is one of my very favorite Christmas pieces, so I'm very happy you decided to use it for your collab :D

As usually, you all did a stellar job on this. It makes me all warm and fuzzy inside, listening to it :3
Merry Christmas, guys, and a Happy New Year!

Ceevro responds:

Very glad you enjoyed it! We released it right on Xmas Eve, so I think it's probably not going to get a ton of views, but it was still a great project...and who knows? Maybe it'll get a bunch more people listening next year!

[FD - Miserere Mei]

Oh wow, you work fast!!!

I've already expressed my love for parts of this, but I still want to leave a short review. As I already mentioned, the dynamics in the intro are brilliant. When it comes to ambient music, this is almost as good as it gets. You do so much, with so little. Subtle things here and there, that keep the attention to the listener, while guiding us through an atmosphere of dreamy sounds.

I can't comprehend that this is almost 4 minutes. It honestly felt like one. The "religious" theme through the Gregorian chants works perfectly for this track. This piece reminds me (through atmosphere and sound design) of the calmer parts of "Destati", (by Yôko Shimomura) from Kingdom Hearts, which happens to be one of my favorite pieces.

Wonderfully done, dude!

ForgottenDawn responds:

Hey there! Quick like a thunder, haha :D
I'm really glad you enjoyed the piece. It's kind of a new territory for me and it's always exciting to explore new possibilities. Thanks for your review!

[Sleeping Soundly]

You make some neat stuff!
This is really relaxing to listen to :3

LawnReality responds:

I'm glad you enjoy my music! :)

[Good Night]

Gaah, I forgot to review this! Maybe because I reviewed the visualizer first :p
Of course, this sounds great even without it accompanying the piece.
I actually uploaded a music box solo piece myself, just in time for Christmas xD

Speaking of...

Merry Christmas!

Noisysundae responds:

I'm too late. Christmas is gone. D:

Anyway, you don't have to review both of it since I focus more on music. But thank you very much for the reviews you gave me.

[Hectic Bells]

This sounds amazing, just like all your stuff :)
Merry Christmas!!! :D

[Xmas in the South]

This is actually really good for having been made in an hour!
The mix is nice, and bluegrass is always fun to listen to XD

As usually, listening to your stuff just makes me happy. Which is perfect for Christmas! :D
I hope you'll be able to write some more stuff for next year :3
Merry Christmas, dude!

LunacyEcho responds:

=> mix =>

lol

Thanks for reviewing my stuff throughout the year! It really means a lot, and I need to catch up on tons of reviews for you too. :P Merry Christmas!
