Solacitude's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Broken Dream]

Beautiful and touching piece! These harmonies...😭Yet, still full of hope! I love it

HollandAlbright responds:

Thank you so much! I'm glad it spoke to you.

[Posterity]

Wonderful! Very interesting timing. Calm, meditative. What process did you use to achieve this sound?

Phonometrologist responds:

Hi there! When you ask for the "process," are you referring to the composing aspect or the recording?
It all starts with tinkering and improvising on the piano. Eventually it grows from there, but if you're looking for more technical procedures in recording, let me know. Wouldn't want to inundate you with information you don't want.

[Dream, Daria]

You have such a wonderful capacity to create beautiful musicality in simplicity. We can hear more than notes in your pieces. I love how you worked your sound, such a soft tone, calming in itself.

Phonometrologist responds:

I apologize for the delayed response, but I appreciate the time you took in letting me know your thoughts on this.

[A Wish for Companionship]

Lovely piece, this soft sound fits very well for this style of composition. I love musicality in simplicity, and you got it.

[The Perfect Orange Slice]

I listened to a couple of your compositions. I think you got a couple good ideas here, more than the others I listened to. If you want one tip to get better results : Get a midi controller when you can to get a more intuitive way to put notes together. I'm sure you would improve all of your compositions and be more efficient! Best of luck in your musical journey, never stop learning and experimenting!

ViciousVictory responds:

Saving up for one!!! Thanks for the kind words and suggestions, rock on 🤘

[Moonlit Requiem]

Very nice vibe going on here! It sounds ethereal, and I love it. Gonna keep an eye out on you

["Jardins sous la chaleur"]

Nice improvisation! Many interesting runs that could be further exploited. It's all about personal tastes, but I'd personally go for a less crowded middle section and really push it at the end.
Gonna explore more of your songs!

[The Rockstar Wives Letters - A Rejection of Things Past]

At first I found the drum kit kind of bland, then went "it's as good as it can get"!
Very nice, everything sound clean enough, cool sound overall, on par with professionals in the same genre. Quality is there! With a real drum it would sound even better but I guess it's all about getting this Rock Band sound in there, it does the job, gives it a certain charm. I wish you the best for your album!

UwUwizard responds:

Ah, thanks so much for giving us a listen! Yeah the Rock Band midi sound is not ideal (hopefully will be able to clean it up a little in the album version with EQ) but for now we're running on a shoestring budget so it's a viable alternative until we can book the time off work and find a room with reverb proofing. I have an 8-mic input which I can comp with a 2i2 to get overheads, kick and snare and room mics going and could theoretically borrow the kit off the drummer in my other band but that's gonna come down to timing and practicality. Thanks for the encouragement, hopefully we'll have the first record out by the end of summer!
