http404error's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Faerie Breeze ~P~(Teaser)]

Yes, oh yes. Dorian, medieval theme, this is an instant favorite. The instrumentation is fantastic as well. I want to hear the whole thing as soon as possible!

Phyrnna responds:

Yes, someone who knows what Dorian mode is! <3

[Internit]

I tell myself that every year. Don't be hard on yourself; it only means you're getting better.

lantaren responds:

thanks, that kinda means a lot to me ^-^ thanks. oh, and I see that you name is http404error... you were drawn to this song since the song title looks like internet, weren't you xD well, I don't blame you. originally it was going to be eternity, then turned into eternit, then to internit. although internet wouldn't be a bad name... nor would connection, gateway, or any other tech term.

[Quarantine]

This track is excellent. The ambiance is indeed very soothing, and it fits right in. The one spot around 1:24 was the only part that bugged me. I will add this to my collection, so thanks for making it!

[[Above All Else] WIP]

It did feel a bit like the whole style changed when the guitar came in, but beside altering the intro a bit to accommodate for that, I liked it a lot. Around 0:25 was also my favorite part.

[Song of Storms: Zelda]

Lovely and nostalgic.
The only stylistic thing is that you left out the 7th harmony, which just happened to be my favorite part.
The only technical thing is to fade in faster. I had to check my volume a few times before I realized that there was just a lot of silence at the beginning.
Everything else was fabulous. The accuracy and quality of sounds was impressive.

[Make Me the Moon]

I want it. Where can I buy it?

Tysuru responds:

www.reverbnation.com/thecolorgreen ! :) You should be able to download this song for free for a lil bit longer as well.

[Fallen Blood ~P~ (Teaser)]

This is very good. There was one moment of dissonance in the organ that I couldn't stand, since it didn't follow the typical tension-resolution form-it was just there.
I can't wait to hear the rest of the track!

Phyrnna responds:

It was intended that way. :P

[Cute Creeper (Menu/Tutorial)]

I feel cheated...

Not Minecraft? Darn.

Oh well, it sounds marvelous anyways. The intonations and velocities are beyond my skill to replicate, and this makes wonderful menu music, so give yourself a pat on the back.

hellotroy responds:

Sorry no Minecraft, I don't actually play it and forgot there were "creepers" in that game. =)

At any rate, thanks for the positive feedback! Looks like that college education finally came in handy. I wasn't writing for a few years after school (tried an IT gig), but I've finally come back to doing sound design and music full on.

For doing really fine detail midi/velocity work, Ableton is incredibly versatile. Hit me up if you decide to take a look at it. It changed my whole workflow for the better.

Thanks again!
Troy

[Successful Troll is Music]

Successful indeed

This really jives with me. I haven't heard the original, but regardless, this is definitely worthy of recognition.

It's just a short loop, but I found the music quite interesting, tried to rebuild it as a full...thing..

Whoever looped that though did a good job, I can sometimes just have a tab open on that page and have that playing for ages.

thanks for the kind words though :D

[Broken Radiool]

Q&A

Answer: Your mother last night.

Seriously now, those are some wicked cranks you pulled there. The mix of funky samples and juicy synths is overwhelmingly cool.
