TheGoldenProof's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[True Form]

This is what Acryl Madness warned us about at the end of Kaidan.

[Chocnoon - Obscure Obsoleteness (CDLXIII)]

2:08 bro's got that https://youtu.be/8Ajedeud_K8?si=IBuTt-QC5SmZphD3 Mega Drive - Acid Spit rizz.

What synths/preset are playing there (and on their own at the end)? I've been searching for both those sounds forever.

name responds:

I don't remember that sound, but I think it's from Sytrus. I'll check it when I get home.

EDIT: It's Electric 1 from Sytrus.

[Taotie's Avaritia]

What do you even do for 80 hours!? That's insane! Sounds great though.

death2go responds:

cast different ideas for different sections of a song, spend too much time on it to try to make it sound good, realize no matter how much i try it just wont for that melody, delete and remake a section or melody, repeat 3 times per section for the entire song lmao

[Heian Alien (Electronic remix)]

sounds like the unholy Galaxy Collapse

MicroMusician responds:

Yes, but it's the unholy Heian Alien

[Fistful Of Peace]

need to reverb the trumpet/10

[Resident of Fantasy That Runs Through Time]

chiptune almond break pog

[High School DxD New OP (Cover)]

based. i remixed the same song but was too afraid to link the source. og is actually a banger of a song for an anime op.

[Second Reality - Mega Drive Version]

id be interested to hear this with loads of compression and fx, could actually sound more like a mega drive song than your other one

edit: wait, is this Mega Drive as in the artist or Mega Drive as in the Sega Genisis?

KDan responds:

As Genesis ofc ^_^

[Misty Lake (Orig: Lunate Elf)]

The overall mixing and composition is pretty good. And normally I wouldn't say anything about this, but it kindof important to the genre... the drums aren't very liquidy. I don't know the first thing about how to make them liquidy, but maybe some stereo width somehow?

Febbs responds:

Hm. Well I think you're onto something there. But I'm going more on a solid drum beat than using vinyl breaks to accompany this. I really like how it works in this arrange, honestly. So I just stayed with it. But thanks for pointing that out!

[Flowering Night (Wing Tech Remix)]

notes as im listening:
- the notes at the beginning are long. both the lead and that background thing. it sounds too smooth for the very rough sounds used.
- impressive loudness, stereo image, and general mixing
- that said, that "bass" (?) playing the long notes like at the beginning sounds weird in general, and the sidechaining/compression is part of that.
- the vocal is a little too repetitive. its too long and recognizable as the word "go" to be used like a percussion instrument.
- the horizontal composition is good. none of the transitions stood out to me in a bad way. it flowed nicely.

Winkwing responds:

That's the wing tech style baby! So close to being right but always fucking a few things up!

I kid, thanks for the feedback, planning on showing off what some of my FLP files tend to look like after a remix is made if you're interested.
Either way, constructive criticism is always welcome!
