Ericho's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[A man like me feat jnazty]

Great song!

I am so glad I was able to hear this awesome song. It is especially sweet when you take in something underrated (well, at least I had never heard of it) and managed to really make it cool. I love the constant stream of rythum that never lets up. I do not think I have even heard of J Natzy before, but it definitley sounds like something from a professional rapper. The lyrics seem to give off a sort of wondering theme, but still maintains its seriousness. There are just so many things going on in the background, too.

[Pirate Contest Whatever]

That's not gonna fly

As this is apparently your only audio submission, it does seem like it could have been a lot better. It is still great you at least managed to enter a contest of some sort. I had no idea that there could be so much discussion over a pirate voice. It really sounds like the same person talking and you do not sound bad with a sore throat. It does seem like a compeletly different thing for you to work on. I do not think this worked as well as most of your other stuff, but it probably was worth a try.

[_-={Fight for Freedoms}=-_]

Nice again

I thought this was really fun to listen to because it seemed to really reject flashiness. It was just a bare bones tell it like it is action song. Well, it did not so much as give me the theme of action as it did give me a theme of ambition and adventure. I always look for that sort of thing in an audio submission. This sort of thing really goes back to the periods of classical music with all the recognizable instruments being used. While not the best thing ever, it was a ton of fun to listen to.

[*Flying High* (ZeRo BaSs)]

It is awesome

I think this is one of your better songs and I can certainly understand why it has been used in a good number of entries. Apart from having a great beat, this works hard for variety. Even if it does not have the most variety what it does have is really cool. Listening to this, the main feeling I got was that of a basic seeming game that is still great to play. It gets better when it seems as though you add some crowd voices at one point. This is effective because it makes you think more of being a professional player.

[*Limit BreakeR* // ZeRo BaSs]

Of course that's what inspired it!

I enjoyed listening to this even if it was not the most original song I have heard in the "genre" it makes. It is just so much fun to listen to something that is so appropriate for so many games. The strongest points might be with the bigger bursts of energy it gets around the 2:00 mark. It seemed to be giving a theme of thrills and adventure. It was about as fast paced as any other song like it. I have just heard so much stuff here it is a bit difficult to find things that are that original here.

[*Rhythm Breaker*]

Very good rhythum

This was tons of fun to listen to simply because it really worked hard to create a style of its own. It sounds a bit like you were trying to imitate rap at first, but it was something great in its own right. There seemed to be a lot of influences to this song, maybe even a sort of disco feel. In the beginning, you have no idea what is going to happen next. It makes me think the theme is just a really cool one and that is really it. This song seems to just absorb itself in its coolness and that is all it needs.

[*Drop The Base* /ZeRo BaSs]

Not just happy

This did not strike me that much as being a happy song as it did having a really spotaneous theme. I do not know why, but I would view it as being more joyful than happy. It is funny to hear the little voice as I think it says, "Cute, cute dris" or something like that. The focus was really put on the background music. To me, the music is best described as being "bouncy" which has been used to describe songs like this before. The best style is probably at the middle where it seems to become more technologic sounding.

[*Ongaku Kousei* //ZeRo BaSs]

Very unique

I am always looking for original material in the songs and flashes that I review and this did the job well. I think what makes this so fun is that there is a lot of variety to it. It does take a little time to get to the variety, but overall it is so much fun. It was even a little hard to tell whether or not some parts were sounds made by a person or by an instrument. I can understand why it has been used in so many games. I think the central theme in this song is that of creativity and doing whatever you want to do.

[*Death Trigger*[ZeRo BaSs/FFR]]

Quite stylistic

It was not the best song I have heard, but it certainly had enough style to be good. I think the biggest weakness is that it does kind of not have that much variety. It still manages to be fairly unique, even if I have heard in before in the submissions. It was smart to use those voices, even though I had no idea what was being said. Of course, a lot of regular songs with lyrics are like that to me (and a lot of other people) too. I think the theme that this was really trying to give out was adventure or wonder.

[* *RaVe UnLiMiTeD* */ZeRoBaSs]

Great effects

I think this is one of the most accurate descriptions you have given in your author's comments. What makes it really funny is that the description is so short yet still says everything that it needs to say. It is especially fun to listen to the little things in the background. I can hear some voices in the beginning that sound kind of like, "What a shin". The little use of voices really help in this song, especially with the more moaning voices near the end. I enjoyed the unique style used in this and the enjoyment.
