"Very cool stuff"

submission: Juice Box

date: December 22, 2009

I am glad you worked to make something really decent with this. You are not the kind of guy who works with video game stuff much, so it's nice to hear your take on NES sounds. I honestly can't really recognize them which probably proves how good you have remixed it. This was indeed a bouncy, fun little thing that gave off a feeling of happiness. It's nice that I am listening to a casual song right before leaving for a big Christmas vacation. May I wish you a Merry Christmas as good as mine should be!

Score: 9

"Very nice"

submission: The Volcano

date: December 21, 2009

I am quite impressed at all of the effort that was put into this song. I'm not that familiar with "Banjo-Kazooie" music, but this does seem like something that would be in it. It basically gives off the feeling of a somewhat goofy video game environment like Mario. I really like how it has such a soft tone and doesn't even try to be dark. While it does give off a sense of adventure, it is optimistic every step out of the way. Probably not the catchiest thing ever made, but certainly good enough to recommend.

Score: 9

"More great stuff!"

submission: 8787

date: December 21, 2009

It just amazes me every time how you come up with extremely cheery melody after extremely cheery melody. I could tell this was using the guitar and maybe the keyboard. It gives off a feeling of not just joy, but also of wonder and looking for things. I am not familiar with Public Enemy stuff, but this seems much happier than something they would make. It almost seems like something that could go into a video game, like Sonic the Hedgehog. You have truly worked hard to make something that everybody can enjoy.

Score: 10

"Simply beautiful"

submission: Thunderheads at sunset - Shen

date: December 20, 2009

I was not expecting much when I saw this, but I was very happy to be completely wrong. This is one of the finest pieces of music I have ever heard submitted to Newgrounds. It shows true grace and can applied to a coming-of-age story or a slice of life story. It makes you think about the end of the day and all that you have accomplished. It shows a great sense of style and works well for its 3 and a half minute length. It has its flashy moments, its sincere moments, and all around it's 100% enjoyable.

Score: 9

"Nice and graceful"

submission: {DT} Snow Theme

date: December 20, 2009

This was a pretty nice song to listen to. I really like how it does give off a more intense feeling than the average song would, but it still tries to be light-hearted. Of course, I am glad to have caught this around the holiday season even though I haven't played in snow for years. The use of piano notes was nice and pretty graceful. Despite being under two minutes, you really did manage to slip in a lot of stuff in the song! It is the sort of thing you can listen to several times and notice things you didn't hear before.

Score: 9

"I like this very much"

submission: The Mingler

date: December 20, 2009

I thought that this was a great piece of music made, and it really fits your ideals of an optimistic song quite well. With all the swearing in your Devvo videos and the dark flash stuff, it's nice to have more light-hearted stuff. I could not quite indentify the intsruments that were used in this. I was thinking it may have been about, what are those things called? While a little repetitive, the overall good cheer made it all fun to listen to. I am glad you were able to do well in this softer and nicer style.

Score: 9

"Wonderful!"

submission: Terry 71

date: December 20, 2009

I must say that I am very glad that I am finally finishing reviewing all of your audio submissions. It is only suiting it would end with something that was one of your best! I would know a lot about 80s music as my brother is obsessed with it. This was quite loyal to the genre and manages to create a beat that is authentic as well. I am impressed at all of the work that you have made and put onto this website. I truly believed you have improved with all of the stuff you've made.

Score: 9

"I like this a lot!"

submission: Snowing Forever -r

date: December 18, 2009

It was really interesting how you put a story with it. I was thinking about why you didn't just make a flash out of it but then I realized there were once things called books used to tell stories. I felt that this really fit the mood, and it was very sweet, if short. It does remind me of happy old winter times when I was a kid. Seeing as how I haven't played in the snow (I haven't been able to) ever since I was a kid, it really fits. I also like how it gives the feeling of meeting an old loved one.

Score: 9

"Lots of fun"

submission: Cake Mixdown

date: December 18, 2009

I'm not sure what "cake" means in this text, but this makes me think it was about a party. I was impressed at how cheery and highly joyful this one seemed. I have been checking out your other stuff and this is by far the lightest thing you have ever used. It was nice how you kept up that nice little style consistently for six minutes. It may not have had the most variety, but when it gets stronger around 1:20, it really takes off. I am glad you have truly experimented on a lot of different styles.

Score: 8

"You're on a roll!"

submission: Terry 70

date: December 18, 2009

I am impressed at how you have managed to (recently) make consistantly good songs. The use of female voices was really nice in this one, and I'm eager to find out what kind of system you use. You really have worked harder to make better songs! While this wasn't as catchy as a professional song, it was still pretty good. You seem to be increasing the length so it becomes more professional seeming. It is nice to hear your progress throughout all of the stuff you have made.
