"Calmly paced, but magnificent"

submission: The Temple Of Time

date: October 11, 2005

I don't usually check out the Audio Portal, but I'm glad I did this time. Almost on a whim, after watching Skittlez and Bitz 4, I heard some of this track and wanted MORE. I now have some of your audio stuff on my computer. And you're now probably my favourite composer at Newgrounds. I LOVE the echoey, ancient yet grandieur sound that comes from many of your songs/remixes. The "choir" synths are used VERY well in your finer selections, including this one. It's no wonder it's 2x Platinum. It's nice to see someone at Newgrounds stop and make something so calmly paced, yet magnificent all it's own.

By the ratings up top, it's not an original song per ce, since it's a remix from Zelda. But what you do with it is the kind of stuff one hears in a great film, an epic perhaps. And you deserve lots of points for that.

"Retarded"

That's all I can say about you, or your works, be they flash or "music". You have absolutely no talent, and should be exiled on some God-forsaken rock. If you honestly believe there isn't enough crap at NG, then just spend 5 minutes at the portal to see how wrong you are.

As for this crap, this doesn't even qualify as music. This is a sound effect. One made with no effort whatsoever.

Grow up.

"Not bad"

submission: What It's Like Cover Ending

date: July 8, 2003

It was well performed, but there was little variety in the sounds, and it... I dunno, didn't seem to go anywhere, or change as it continued. It just kinda stayed as the same sole beat over and over again, with the occasional extra set of sounds for about 4 seconds or so.

But then again, I'm not very good at reviewing music, so what do I know?
