PenguinPyromaniac's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Broken (Still In The Night)]

Lots of soul in it, as promised. Quality isn't the greatest, as expected, but that didn't hamper my experience. Steady without seeming repetitive, just intense enough to keep my attention for 9 minutes rather than letting my mind wander off, but not so intense that it's distracting or tiring to listen to for that long. Great for listening to when it's late at night with the windows open, has a real "midnight" feel to it. In short, I fucking love it.

LimeDisciple responds:

Thanks alot for the review man, I really appreciate those kind words. Yeah the quality isnt fantastic, but as mentioned it was recorded on an iphone because I have no other means to record at the moment. Glad you enjoyed.

Rock and roll

[Dance of the Spirits]

Very nice.

I'm pretty sure I came at 1:17. Was too busy paying attention to the awesomeness to be sure.

OcularNebula responds:

gotta love those arpeggio buildups

[Eternal Love[Original Mix]

Great beat.

You just got 10-bombed.

stephenstripling responds:

Thanks!

[-This Is It-]

Awesome

Best part, to me, is the piano-and-bass section from 1:36 to 2:44. Catchy and classy-sounding. I think it'd be awesome if you would expand and continue on that. The short piano-only piece that follows is beautiful in its own right, but you really had something going there for that piano-bass section.

The bass kick is kind of underwhelming for the intro, but I think it complements the plus=piano section well.

Back-From-Purgatory responds:

I've been trying to include piano a lot more in my songs lately... simply because the piano is one of my favorite instruments, that and I finally have a full 88 key keyboard to play with, so you'll no doubt be hearing a lot more piano in every style of music I do.

Glad you liked it!

[SynTomX]

Nice!

It's unusual among songs in that it's fun to listen to more than anything else. Melody is unorthodox, and all over the place, in a good way, it's complemented incredibly well by the bass, and the intro doesn't waste time in setting it up. I can't think of any way to improve this. Good job, and I'll be checking out your other stuff soon :D

Feddey responds:

Great! :D :D
Love your rewiev! Gives me motivation for more! =)
Thank you so much! :D

[Zero Hour (2011)]

Holy sh*t

I cannot start to describe how much ass this kicks. Intense, technically awesome and offers a shit-ton in raw, beautiful emotion.

This, along with Star Chaser, has convinced me you are a fucking genius.

deadlyfishes responds:

[Star Chaser]

Intense and kickasstical

Goes from emotional extreme to emotional extreme, while staying strong, clear and passionate the whole time. Kickass guitar riffs and excellent pacing. Sounds dream-like and surreal while still lodging itself firmly in my mind like a swift steel boot to the face, only just as pleasant as that would be uncomfortable :P The drums/bass in the second half of it are excellently placed as well.

Favorited. Totally favorited.

deadlyfishes responds:

I'm glad you noticed some key points to my song here. NG needs more thoughtful reviews like yours. You've basically proven to me that I've done everything right with this song. I always aim to achieve certain musical goals with each song and composition. It really is good hear that the song came out exactly the way I wanted it to! Anyways thanks for the review and if you want to hear more music from me check out the stuff on my audio portal and my official website: matthewpablo.com

[Determined Battle]

Aurally Pleased?

Hell yeah I was. Sophisticated yet kickass, this is my kind of song and should be everyones'!

corbetweller responds:

Haha, I can dig it!

[No Parking]

Sounds wonderful.

Catchy tune, well-tuned, and energetic. I'd totally eat this song.

sumguy720 responds:

Fantastic, although I'm not sure FL studio can export an edible version. I suppose I could transcribe the wave form into cake icing but I don't think it would be the same.
I will let you know if there are any developments in song eating technology.

[FFVII Still EVEN MORE Fighting]

Awesome.

Excellent interpretation. A lot easier to listen to than the original, yet retains the badassness.

paradiddlesjosh responds:

Well, thankee for your review. :D
