GameBoyFireworks's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Asteroid Sweeper]

Freaking sick, love when the beat hits at :38. Chill, but mysterious, but vibey. Nice panning choices in the last half of the song as well. Very cool and interesting song my friend. Solid mix to boot-- Well done!

Charlmot responds:

Thank you so much! Means a lot coming from you :)

[it pays to forget]

The compression chain on your vocals and saturation is so good. The composition reminds me of a more classic version of Muse and the instrumentation reminds me of Nine Inch Nails. (Both compliments, also LCD SoundSystem vibes?)

Very cool, keep leaning into this style 🙌

littlbox responds:

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it, and I'll have to give Muse and NIN more of a listen! :D

[dreamgirl]

Excellent vibes and nice composition, well done!

littlbox responds:

Thank you, sir! :)

[Egg]

This track is so wildly good. Definitely deserves front page; crazy cool composition. Well done, again!

MYYA responds:

I know, I really hoped this got more attention :(

[Pulsar Wave]

Very intriguing chord choices, consider my mind blown! :]

Love that bridge type section around 1:40, good use of dynamics here. Outro is lush! Nice work, Charlmot!

Charlmot responds:

Thank you so much for the feedback! I'm always trying to experiment, so this isn't my usual sound (i think, i dont even really have my own sound just yet lol), but ive been trying my best! I appreciate the review :)

[I Love You]

Amazing texture. Great work

Quarl responds:

Thank you Fireworks!!

[one eye open w/ ket faery]

The sub at 1:08, jesus christ LOL, this goes so hard! Great voice, super hype production. Absolutely killed it. Only thing I'd recommend is less gross beat (or gross beat alternative plugin) around 1:40, although this is literally something I've done many times as well. Could even just remove the vocals from there and just let the beat ride out without the gross beat from 1:45 on. Some of the clipping caused by distortion/crushing on the vocals around 1:50-on is distracting, but I know that's totally intentionally. I dig this a lot!

jacklynlaurie responds:

Thank you for the feedback! The second half of the song with the vocals all chopped up is the same verse repeated so I wanted to mess it all up the second time around and make the song more dynamic.

[Absolutely No Control]

Insane, was not expecting that first drop at all. The intro was so well built, great tension and release; fun!! The chromaticism little fall on the piano creates a unique motif that can bring you back to a strange reality then you're sucked back into the paralysis. Meanwhile, that last drop took me to another planet. 5/5, great work!

Quarl responds:

Chromaticism is more than just for finding the busted notes on dusty old pianos :3

Thanks for stopping by señor Fireworks!

[Fleeting moment]

MAFFI!!! Let's go man!! Amazing!

Maffi responds:

Thanks man! Means a lot coming from you!

[Sounds Nothing Alike]

Insane! Crazy soundscape, very cool

Quarl responds:

Thank you Mr. Fireworks. Your words have inspired me!
