LucidShadowDreamer's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[FD - Well of Tears]

This is a very beautiful, and emotional track. I think that tracks that express the composer's emotions tend to be among the most powerful pieces, as the feels are so real. Great job :)

ForgottenDawn responds:

Thank you for your kind words :)

[Hallelujah Acapella Cover]

Hahha, it sounds neat :p
I like the fact that you're singing pretty deep and with power. You have a really good singing voice! You're much better at hitting the right pitch too, even without any music in the background :)
Great job ;)

JayWEccent responds:

Thank you so much. Really means a lot to me. I actually have recorded this a few times and hated them until I came to this one and even then I was unsure of myself.

[Seraphina]

I can really feel the KH vibe in this! It's one of my favorite game series too :D
Great job!!!

Troisnyx responds:

Cheers! ^_^

[Retrograde]

Oh wow o.O
This sounds amazing!!!

So much awesome stuff happening throughout the entire piece. This is one of my very favorites from you for sure! The mix and all the instruments sound wonderful. And of course, the melodies are awesome. Great job ;)

GhostLawyer responds:

Danke schoen! :D

[Dinner Pizz]

This is a pretty neat track :)
Listening to it puts me in a happy mood :D
Also, the mix is super clear. Only complaint is that the ending just kinda cuts off a bit :p
Great job!

eatmeatleet responds:

haha thanks. Yeah very fun gig

[Friends Forever - Echoes of Adventure]

This is a vert cute, soft and nice little track :3
The loop is seamless, which is nice. There was something not working with the Newgrounds audio player for me earlier, but now it loops tracks nicely again.
I love this little piece :)

stunkel responds:

Thanks! Yeah idk why but the audio player hasn't been looping properly. Thanks for the comment!

[Immortal Fear]

Now this track, is really my style of stuff to listen to! A very tasteful choice of both chords and melody. It's a very emotional piece, which makes it all the better. You can see from the download ratio that this is a good composition, not only to me, but many others as well.

The instrument choices are good, and they emphasize just the right spots of the melody too. Your pickiness payed of, as it gave a great dynamic value to this piece (especially good job for this being soundfonts, or in the very least the violin). The repetition doesn't really bother me either. As johnfn usually says: a good melody deserves repetition :)
I hear nothing bad with the mix either.

Once again, it's great to see you back, and with some new genres too! You have a speldid taste for good melodies and chords, which I appreciate very much; keep up the good work :D

Everratic responds:

"Now this track, is really my style of stuff to listen to!"

I actually listened to your ngadm song for inspiration :D

"(especially good job for this being soundfonts, or in the very least the violin). "

Everything except the piano and choir pad is a soundfont.

"The instrument choices are good, and they emphasize just the right spots of the melody too."

I'm glad you liked the instruments. With the violin and flute, I tried to choose melodic notes that emphasized the piano melody or enhanced a chord's emotion.

"Once again, it's great to see you back, and with some new genres too! You have a speldid taste for good melodies and chords, which I appreciate very much; keep up the good work :D"

I'm glad to be back. Thank you for reviewing my new songs!

[Across The Mist]

Man, this is an awesome track!
So atmospheric, and interesting. Wonderful instrument choices, sweet chords and melodies, as well as good use of dynamics, and a good set of percussion to top it off.

While I do see why you'd put this under classical, I also think that ambient would fit it quite well :)
Amazing job, dude!

NicholasCabraja responds:

Thanks man! Ya this was a bitch to mix. I ended up bouncing all my tracks and throughing it into Pro Tools. First time doing that! I feel that mixing in only audio rather thank midi forces me to make everything fit without making major midi changes - if the arrangements good enough of course. :P
The solo vocalist in the beginning was a huge pain in the ass to sit right. So much head voice.
I can feel the ambience genre now that you mention it. The drums are the only dry thing to be honest! But hey, songs should have a 360 degree feel!

Really glad you liked it! Means a lot!
