LucidShadowDreamer's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Creature]

I like how you didn't just bomb Newgrounds by uploading all of these at once, as some people would do :D

I really love the way your entire album revolves around a specific theme, as if it was telling a story. Everything is a lot more connected this way.
I don't have much to say... Great guitar work :p

[Instinct]

This is great, just like all the other songs on the album. I don't get where you become this good at making music o.O
Good choice of name too, in my opinion. I get the feel that I'm running through the forest/jungle or something, while I can only rely on my instincts to survive all the dangers that lurk in the bushes XD

Btw, I did upload a piano cover of "To Zanarkand", which you kind of requested :p (If you're interested :3)

[BB Mush Chronicle Ep. 1]

Hahha, cool to see you do something completely different, and with great background music too! :'D
Awesome job ;)

[redemption]

Hahha, this really sounds like johnfn, as expected of johnfn XD
What luck then that something sounds great when it sounds like johnfn ;)
I still get what you mean with that this is branching of your style, so don't worry.

This is a very chill song, and I have nothing to complain about; everything sounds great :p
The parts with vocals work really well too, actually :D

Buht whyes dids yous deletes a sectionz :( ?

johnfn responds:

Hahah isn't it so lucky that johnfn style sounds good? Otherwise god knows what I would have had to do. Maybe LSD-style...

The one section I deleted was actually really nice, but I was having trouble getting it to work well in the context of the song, and I was also having trouble with the chord progression... In the end I just ran out of time and deleted it, lol. I may submit it as a standalone sometime.

[Escape]

How does this have such a low rating -_-?
Anyhow, this piece, along with the entire album, is awesome!
KatMaestro's ARMA 3: Resist project has been really interesting to follow, and I can easily see how this song fits the style :p

Mattashi responds:

The star rating doesn't matter to me, what matters most is that I have awesome people like you reviewing :)
And yeah I can't wait to play it! I'd love to hear Kat's music in game :3

[Hope]

Amazing, as always o.O
I can really feel the emotion in this piece.
I'm not really leaving a review, I just wanted to let you know that I enjoyed listening to this, and will do so for all the songs on the album :3

[Time to Fly - NGADM]

This is great! I don't have much to say, except for "Good job!" ;)
Favorited :)

Spadezer responds:

My thanks and appreciation ;)

[NanoFields]

Great music as always. I've mentioned it before, but it seems as there is no genre you can't master XD

I like how this piece is actually pretty simple in some ways, while it sounds like it isn't! I'd say this means that the production is pretty flawless :p
The percussion is great, as are all the other instruments.
The transitions all work well, and all the separate parts work well together.
Even the melodies are cool!

The only thing I could possibly mention is that this piece sounds a little samey all the way through, even though the parts are different. This is probably because the rythm is pretty much the same the entire time, and the intruments all sound alike. Some variation might give this piece more re-listenability. That, however, may be difficult to implement into the piece if it is supposed to sound a certain way and fit a certain genre ;3

Splendid job ;)

LunyAlex responds:

Yea, you're spot on, in that I'm very lazy with rhythms. If I make a beat that I like, I sometimes commit the fairly repulsive crime of using it throughout a song.

Thank you very much for the review, the kind words and the advice!
