longtoniko's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[to the stars (dragonheart)]

Beutiful

I like the atmosphere in this one. Great job!

[Dead or Alive 2 ReMix]

Great !

I haven`t heard much of Dead or Alive music on newgrounds..This remix is good i don`t know whatelse to say.
One question though, what`s your gamertag? I guess you have Doa4 on Xbox 360?

[BassHunter - Boten Anna|Ver 2]

It`s allright

Jag känner en Author han heter Daja daja heter han, han gjorde en hyfsad, hyfsad re-emix..krävs dock lite meeera hää-är , men annars var det väl en bra ree-mix..Jag vill berätta.....

Hyfsad men jag tycker du skulle kört efter rösten i låten istället för bara basen

D-A-J responds:

Jag har ju inte rösten, så wth :P

[robotnik metalised]

It`s good

I think you`ve done a great job with this the only thing is that it needs a little bit more structure( you know longer note line before it loops and starts over).

And the the bass line and the mainline ( notes ) should be more seperated (i`M talking about the volume level). I`m talking alot about notes...i can`t even read them!! ( it`s easier to say notes than keys or tones )

But seriously i don`t know, i have no exeperiment with music programs. But still it`s good, far over the average here on NG.I`m not saying that the average is low. But this is one of the better.

Oh and yeah i gotta say that you shouldn`t take my word for everything that i have said in this review it`s just my personal opinions. I think i got way to little experience to even use "note" as a word in my reviews

[-=Shaolin*Meditation=-]

You haven`t lost it

This is great it has alot of atmosphere in it. What instruments did you use for this one? Sounded like a stringed one mixed with some wind instrument, and a human voice orchestra (do da do) near the end (i have nearly no knowledge about intsruments except piano)
I haven`t really got anythingelse to say because this is an improved orchestrated version of an older piano "solo"

If you`re boored/out of ideas the perfect soloution is to get boored of somethingelse. Just a little advice

Oh and bytheway is it you on the picture in your public profile?...doesn`t look like the same guy that was there before

afliXion responds:

The instruments used were: piccolo, soprano recorder (always in unison)n Shamisen, harp (always in unison), Voice, which in the beginning doubles the melody the solo cello, which is also doubled by the cello section. And beneath it all is a double bass and a fretless bass, always in unison.
All these unisons is what gives it all the atmosphere and creates that 'airy' sound.
Yes that is me in that pic. I always look different in my pictures.

[aflXln Pirates ofthe Caribbean]

Great !

I can hear that the sound is far more better on this live recording. Did you move the piano closer to the microphone?.

For how long have you been playing piano?

I find it hard to play two rythms at once with two different hands like one note line for the left hand and one for the right. But i guess after some time of practice and hard work my brain will get used to it.

Do your creativity have any limits? I mean over the summer you have just filled newgrounds with new songs.

The song: This is a good song maybe not the most unique one you have submitted but i like the way it fits to it`s name. I`m not a good reviewer probably coz my lack of experience but i can tell you that i have alot practice a head of me if i`m going to play as good as you do

afliXion responds:

The problem with the volume in the last few recordings was the piano itself. I was playing 'full stick' which means the piano was fully opened. For this recording I made it just barely opened. That solved the problem it seems.
The way I deal with two different rhythms is: subdivide. In this song, the eigth note pulse is constant. (in the fast part) So instead of feeling off beats, just try to feel your hands trading off the beats. (It would make more sense if I could show you in real life.)
This stuff over summer is mostly ideas I got during the school year, that I didn't have time to finish then.
Yea, just keep practicing. I've never had a piano lesson... just learn your chords then everything will be cool.

[afliXion -=Game Over-=]

Live is great !

Hi, i think it`s great that you are playing live now.
Especially in thought of that i`m doing live, so maybe i can get some inspiration from this.
One question though, are you gonna remake some of your classics like an adventure music song or guiles, and play them live? Or do you think it`s gonna be too much space filled on your audio list/board?

afliXion responds:

Glad you liked it.
I had considered playing one of my old songs... but I don't know... I have alot of new ideas that I want to get done while I can over summer. So I guess we'll just have to see. :p

[Russian Beat Down || Tetris]

Tetris cant be better than this

I thought i was sick of tetris but you really get something to the song that wasnt there before.Really cool version of tetris just like i want it.I think that something might bee the cool background line of tones that backs the maintheme up

[Scotish Grounds]

Delightful music

Delightful music this is something you listen to with high volume.Anyway good job and swing those balloon axes and fight for the freedom of scotland ay

[The HMS]

Drunk italian ?

You sound like a drunk italian on this one..i understood the humour.
