Quarl's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[ALL IIIIIII]

hahahahahaha, I loved that bassy switch up at the intro. Really smart music scj. I bet this bangs on some nice big monitors. Unf, 1:09 is fooking huge. Those bass lines make me super happy. Curious, why is this under "dance" when this is clearly progressive drum and bass?

Outro was clean.

[Beacons In The Void]

Dope, the bingo contest has two metal tracks so far. I can tell you had a lot of fun putting this together. Those zooming guitar crescendos were super cool. Well written track Nekro Cat. That piano & drum breakdown later in the song was my fave part. Way to go the extra mile and jump around from program to program. Must have been a tedious process :p

Nekro-Kitty responds:

Thank you; i am glad that you liked it.

I guess it didn't feel super tedious to me, at least in hindsight, because it was just a lot of fun.

[Lighting Another]

Yo, this is some tight metal. Granted I gotta agree with Czy on the highs. The mix sounds super thin. I love throat vocals though. All the writing is good. Drum rhythms and guitar riffs are on point. I'm guessing there is some sort of fidelity FX on those vocals that are tearing up the spectrum? Dunno. That's really the only problem I got. Everything else sounds great love :)

TSRBand responds:

Thanks for the kind words! I do have a lot to learn about performing and mixing vocals and hope to keep improving :)

[The Proud Orchestra of Many Origins]

This was epic Jordan. Reminded me of that old Legend of Zelda vibe. I can practically hear Navi telling me to listen over and over again. Then later I get the vibe that the Deku tree is telling epic stories. Hey, how was the Deku tree so wise when he's basically stuck in one place his whole life? That tree knew way too many things about the world :/

I kind of felt like the last minute was redundant copy and paste but congrats on writing almost seven minutes of dope material :)

[Zebra Duo-Rick and Morty Theme Song (instrumental cover)]

Loved that bass triplet at the beginning. Really sassy track-o-roni. Smooth AF jazz waltz, consensual 3/4 segment 26 seconds. I'd introduce this song to my parents.

sorohanro responds:

Your review is a masterpiece of literature and music theory combined. Thanks for making my day.

[Unusually Complex Understanding]

Yo these lounge beats are fire. Enchanting melodies, sassy piano textures. That break down at 1:22 was ill son.

[悲しい少年 "S a d b o y" [Lofi]]

Holy cow, you've been uploading a ton of great material this year. Been holding on to it all this time? Where do these ideas come from?

DreamEater responds:

Man thank you so much for all the support Quarl, I can't tell ya how much I appreciate it.

The first 10-15 tracks or so were some old ones that I had stocked up but all the new lofi/trap/vaporwave projects have been done in my new studio :'). I've been listening to a LOT of Chillhop and Lofi in the time I was unable to write, so a lot of my inspo has been drawn from that lately. I really want to give future funk a try but idk if my body is ready.

[オレンジ "Orenji" [Lofi]]

Such chill. I was listening to this track earlier. That glitch vibe is tight. I love the way that soft kit works with the grainy record sounds. Tango.

DreamEater responds:

Thank you so much 😊, I’m really proud of this mixdown. I couldn’t agree more 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
