ZuwerWS's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Poisonous Jam]

It's not bad, it's funny you guys. I feel like you had multiple ideas at once but didn't know how to fully execute on them. they don't mash together that well- On their own each could make a pretty decent song but it's just too chaotic to me

[Desert Journey [Jamuary 2]]

It Funny, Me likey.
Sound a bit like a sonic area, but different. I really like the bass guitar and how arabic it sounds. Then the saw also has a great melody. I don't know if you were inspired by it but it is now gonna be my headcannon vegeta pull / rhythm tweezers 3. With a few more instruments I could definitely see it being in a game (Like at 2:18 it playing I and VII notes of the scale in eights twice)

[That Charming Young Criminal]

It's decent, a bit too cluttered for me but I can understand where this came from (even if it does escape this clutter every few bars). The melody isn't structured perfectly, but it's good enough.
There definitely wasn't much mixing done, but it still sounds pretty good. I think the 1:20-1:53 is good and the ending is really good.

[Strawberry Bossa Jam]

Yeah I like this, kind of shocking you turned how shit FL Keys are into this, that's the biggest surprise for me.
I really groove with this good job (and also even though I still recognise the Drums they deffinitely were changed a bit in the mixing which I also appriciate.

xanxoepico responds:

oh yeah, when I use default FL stuff I make sure to change it up a lot as to not sound so typical.

though I didn't modify the keys that much actually, I think I just edited the hardness a bit and added some EQ and lo-fi effect with effector, you can check the FLP and compare the default preset to mine LOL

[ah sh!]

The Mixing is good, the length does irritate me a bit, but only a bit since it's actually pretty chill, could put it on the background I think. It's not the best of Lo-Fi, nowhere near. but still there deffinitely was some effort put into this. I think there is slight variation (in delay between notes on certain repeats) but that may be just my brain looking for variation

[GuyFD - Crush (Jan. 2)]

I like the arpeggios.
Uhhhh, I also like the ending.
I don't know it's too still for me but maybe someone else would fine more enjoyment out of this since this is prefectly fine not gonna lie, but it is still just fine to me.

[Confident, Charismatic, Curious]

I feel like this is a strong follow up to the first song, It definitely 'expands' on the idea of the original while standing on it's own. The Later parts remind me of something I'd hear from subnautica, although not quite. It feels like with every bar we were getting deeper and deeper into a mesmerisingly beatiful cave of sorts, the high marimba noises being droplets from stalagtites. Then it gets to a really good lofi part, man this is definitely my favourite song I've heard this jamuary, It just does so much of the stuff that I love in music even when it's done in a genre I'm usually not a big fan of. Good job mate!

JinZ responds:

Damn good ears
I didnt intend to have the tracks related to each other, they only sound similar cuz theyre made by the same guy lol
Nice interpretation still

[Chocnoon - Noxious (CDXCVIII)]

I don't have much to say I like it well enough, It's not my genre and I think it's decent. Would have probably enjoyed it more if I was a fan of that kind of music

MWMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM responds:

This is one attempt on this genre.

[Sequence(2024) Jamuary - 1]

This really reminds me of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Music, and for a good reason. Even if SMD didn't have the best of music, this definitely would be on my list of bangers if it was in that game. Really like the silly piece by the end

[Jamuary 2nd - Break Something]

As someone who has used LMMS before, I'm honestly shocked you pulled THIS out in that program since it's pretty simplistic, the mixing is on the spot, I really like what you did with it. I don't have much to say, it's very solid. I like how peaceful it gets by the end
