Manumission's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Carol of the Trolls]

Madness day gone wrong

if madness was during Christmas.

Seriously it was like a mourning song... and sounded like the girl at the beginning was pounding the little trolls with a HUGE battle axe who were singing horrible.

But that's my fantasy.... that's just a lol. Good vocals though.

sorohanro responds:

Actually no girls involved here. Also no boys.
Mature men on helium.
Really.

[Broken Frequency]

Oww, Powww at 0:50!

Jeez i was having happy moments remembering star trek and then the phasers blazed! Man that was awesome.

Only thing is more instruments needed. I would like to see a remix. But you master the 8. bit melody there! Great

SirShikari responds:

Cheers bro, instrumentation-wise I wanted to limit myself to an almost entirely 8bit sound! Anyhow, cheers for the review, and watch this space for news on the Ep!

[Dearly Beloved~ BrokenPaper]

Orchestral Masterpiece

This is really southing, as its all in the violin (they say the violin is most pleasant sound to the human ear).

Also the piano and Saxophone/Clarinet thing really nail it right on the head. Love what you did to incooperate the drums and high-hat into this, really adds some taste.

Still not much feel for video game but thats totally OK... because it attractes more views than something listed under classical... that's NG

Pretty job. 10/10,5/5,fav,download

BrokenPaperWings responds:

The fact that you cannot tell what the saxophone/clarinet thing is just warms my heart, because it means I made an unknown thingy sound good :) [y'know now that i'm listening to it again I actually cannot tell what it is]
Thanks man, I really appreciate that you took the time to review and write an analysis!

[Fighting Winds *C-Star*]

This would go good with any medieval action movie.

Perfectly.

For example, this is something that they would write for Lord of the Rings.

Great comments.... and i think you really would have deserved week's top a few weeks ago, but you ran into some tough competition :)

All in good times, Great job.....

CreamingStar responds:

Thanks. While I don't have to attention span to sit though 1, let alone 3, LOR movies, I am a big fan of the music! Thank you for listening and thanks for the review!

[[NB] Megaman 3 StageSelect mix]

Before I listened to this,

I thought there were way to many Megaman remixes on NG.

The 8.bit intro up to 0.45 was a genius :) and then the rhythm kicked in (especially catchy personally) and also the hardcore kicks (which on my part would have to have been a great choice for this song).

Also appreciate the high-pitch bell xylophone-ish tones.... :) and all other drums and instruments

I honestly dont think you will get much criticism (both destructive and constructive) because the piece of art is so fantastic. And everything is perfect.

Favorite of all Megaman remixes :) really deserves week's top :)

weemeee responds:

Thanks for the review! Appreciate it!

[{425} Wasted]

Great everything!

Everything is perfectly balanced like the kicks, melody, and other drums. An awesome techno song! Very much deserves to be on the all time top list :)

My only suggestion would put some faster bpm or melody. And harder kicks on some parts.

Other than that, perfect length, catchyness, but no dynamics :(

Michael425 responds:

Yeah the kick and bass definitely could have thumped a bit harder.
Thanks for the review man.

[Orchestral Theme 4]

This has fantasy written all over it

Especially beginning....

LUV the Orchestral Themes and they sound really epic... the perfect song for fantasy....

It reminds me of some medieval fantasy game mixed with Mario Bros.! Cool!

Really great job, takes a lot of talent to make an original fantasy :)

Gravey responds:

Thanks. The kind words are appreciated.

[-Dancing Flame-]

Nice Salsa!

Really catchy with the guitar and the piano combo! Probably why you got on week's top is because there aren't that many good salsa songs out there (that was a compliment btw).....

But great job.

Step responds:

Thanks man. I probably got #2 in the Top 5 since this song is under 'Latin' and since it's not a common genre, 0-bombers don't come and vote 0 on it, so I was lucky :P.

Thanks for reviewing!

[Bell Hop Sky High]

Interesting...

How this got up?? I mean its pretty good..... but if something is made in 30 minutes, it musnt get the like #6 all time.

I just recommend that you make your songs more like 3 minutes long, therefore we can listen to MORE! yes more....

Everlasting-Elements responds:

I do have a lot of songs to hear, dude.

[[GZ] Dream Trance]

Name fits it perfectly!

Great combination of trance and video game elements!

Perfect combination in this type of beat. It should have a little louder volume on the beat though. Because that's the trance part of it.

Awesome!

GrayZ responds:

Thanks so much!! :) Since music + gaming is basically my life Thats the feel I hope people get out of my songs. Thanks so much for the nice review, I'm still new to making music so expect much better from me in the future! :)
