SineRider's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

Really digging this demo! It reminds me a lot of something, but I can't quite put my finger on it. The guitar swells and the distant guitar lines panned left and right are quite nice. I really like the upbeat drums as well.

At this point you have a really solid jumping off point. Now where you can take this is up to you, but I'd suggest having some kind of large climax in a post-rock esque fashion. I'm thinking like the track "Threads" by This Will Destroy You.

I look forward to hearing more of this!

[Creepy Little Things]

Wow you're still as great as ever.

I love the acoustic guitar snippets throughout this. I'd like to see this fleshed out with some more development

LJCoffee responds:

so late response.

[Leading The Masses]

Still making crazy awesome music I see quarl! I really dig all the voice clips too, menacing

Quarl responds:

mudkip <3

[Chris Weeks - [H]]

Totally awesome, this along with [He] are gorgeous. I really need to pick up your last two albums, I will be pretty soon ;)

Kingbastard responds:

Cheers man;)

[Emerge]

Lovely stuff. I enjoyed the classic sounding synth patches you used. I feel like this would work well for a background track in Bladerunner or something of the like. Another great touch is the way the track seamlessly goes from a short staccato sound to long legato sound with the synths overlapping with each note.

Great work Mich, make moar

Mich responds:

Hey Siney!

Glad you like it! I started out with just the pad synth (NI Massive) and then played some higher pitched notes, decided to clone the synth and fiddle a bit. So both synths are kind of borne from the same thing.

I haven't seen Bladerunner but I imagine the mood kind of matches with this track, then!

Glad you liked that overlapping. I kind of had the idea of making one of these endless descending melodies, but settled somewhere halfway through building that.

Thanks for the compliments sir, and I'll make moar once I get moar inspiration! :)

[==(Serene Submersion)==]

so badass. I've heard of the Shepard Tone before, but never heard it sound so nice ;) You know it reminds me a lot of some of the tunes from the Legend of Zelda series.

I hope you expand on this in some way, although it is quite chill as in, but maybe adding some more subtle changes as the song goes on.

[Asleep Atop An Atom]

lovely stuff, I'm really digging your bass tone. I like the subtle use of the bitcrusher, really gives the guitar a cool sound.

Now i wanna make some tunes like this, it's quite inspiring. I look forward to hearing your new album man :D

LLAAPPSSEE responds:

Thanks man. Always appreciate you listening. I've been experimenting with various Bitcrushers + guitar tones lately. I have another song that is another experiment with the crushed melodies. There's something about it that I really like. It creates some interesting spaces.

Hit the sound forge!
