johnfn's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Nouveau]

Really nice! Like the ambient approach. Now imagine if that melody line was some nice breathy reverbed vocals!

[Facing the Foe - Remake]

This is really nice. I think there's some lack of realism with the lead instruments at points, and the backing instrumentation can feel a bit repetitive at times, but that's all I can really complain about. The melodies are lovely, and a lot of the areas of the production really shine. I love the cymbal crashes specifically, plus the timbre changes on the lead instrument. 1:35 e.g. is a really nice moment.

Definitely sounds like an awesome battle theme to me :D

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Thanks dude! I agree that I still am not at a point where all of the instruments sound realistic. To some extent, it's the limitation of the libraries, but I am sure that many of those aspects could be improved with an even closer look at the arrangement (which I would have to do if say, I were to create sheet music for this piece).

I also agree with the backing instrumentation bit. That's why I wanted them to play their own melody at a later part in the song (2:08 =>), although the actual instruments there are still mostly the same!

I'm especially glad if you think that the production was at least improved in this version, as I know that was one of the main problems in the original :)

Thank you for the review, and for listening!
