ZipZipper's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Salty breeze]

Very cool.

Sets up a nice little ambience. Could be expanded on a bit more, but it sounds pretty solid as is. Nice work!

[The True Distance]

Wow...

The mellow atmosphere to this gives me the chills. All parts fit together perfectly...it flows forward and is ethereal. Excellent work!

WAR-BASTARD responds:

Thank you! I'd say "ethereal" is just what I was going for. :D

[Etude #1 in B Flat Minor]

Wonderful.

I really love the way this is thought-out. I think its length gives it a great character instead of being drawn out endlessly. It teeters back and forth nicely and is interesting to listen to. Great work! You should continue on with making the other etudes as well.

Rampant responds:

Thank you!
Recently I started writing in more of a romantic style - I felt that romanticism allowed me much greater freedom as a composer to write emotionally, rather than adhering to the strict rules of classical style.

I'm glad you like it - I intended the teetering to represent the struggles we all face in life. Without being too drawn out, of course!

[Kirby Orchestra Mix]

AAAAHHHH!!!!

I got a chill when the factory inspection part kicked in! This is a great remix of sorts. The sound is very full and similar to the game's while also a tad different. Great job!

apivotmaneh responds:

i'm glad you liked it!

[{B.A.B.} Bagattella di Estate]

Exquisite.

I simply adore this adorable music. It's so bouncy and stylish and the reverb, I think, is perfect. It makes me imagine a bunch of children playing tag in the courtyard of a grand castle as their parents sit on the balconies having a lovely brunch together and enjoying the light mid-afternoon air. All the instruments fit so well together. The imposing of the piano is especially nice, to me. What blissful music...it's perfect.

blackattackbitch responds:

That's the exact feel I was trying to achieve! Glad you liked it!

[FrolickingLlamas]

L0L.

I definitely see the frolicking llamas <3 This is a great little tune! It's catchy and fun.

Beelzebubble responds:

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[introverture]

Twisty.

At first, there were moments where I couldn't tell what time signature the piece was in, which made me interested. I think that if there was some more reverb added to some parts then the piece would sound fuller, or perhaps doubling some melodies with different instruments. But I like this. It's weird and obscure, a type of music I enjoy a lot.

Horsenwelles responds:

7/4 >>> 3/4

and yeah, i'll add some instruments to the more empty parts that aren't meant to be empty. as i mentioned, there are points that are meant to be empty to contrast to the major crescendos in the song, adding to their effect.

[Chilly warmth]

Hmm...

The Heavenly soundscape here, I think, somewhat borderlines on one of a dark, nightmarish nature. It's very cool how that is mixed together to make a feeling of a strange paradise. Excellent work!

[[MUG] Ice Master]

Nice AS ICE!

Great little tune to depict a battle with an Ice Master; a battle with any kind of boss really. Excellent work!

Mugrunty responds:

Thanks for the review ZipZipper! At least a few people think it sounds neat. I never really thought of it as a "Boss Battle". It's almost like it's too happy?

[[MUG] Squeeker]

Neat.

A neat little tune that sounds unique, in a sense. Short, to-the-point and catchy. Great tune! Nice to have a little jam out to...in my head. :l

Mugrunty responds:

Always Appreciate the Reviews...even for the old, short, and weird ones! Thanks ZipZipper! I have way to many "short, to-the-point, and catchy" songs. Most of them I don't put up here as I'm not sure there's a category for them, and people tend to rate them poorly. ;)

Thanks again!
