Bitbeak's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Village of Kaeda]

It's definitely got the right feel. My one complaint would be that a number of the instruments sound kind of canned or just a little too artificial (though I know that's not really a thing you controlled here).

Pleasant vibes though :)

Jxudo responds:

Thanks for the feedback!

[Dead Winter Forest]

Does a really good job of setting the mood. Feels like winter in an eery forest

LloydeSorrow responds:

Thank you!

[gold salt vault]

Really, Really odd track. Like I kept listening to see where you'd take it. I honestly love the last bit of it (~1:05 onward).

Aside from the speed change, is there a reason it's hella compressed though?

Super-shape responds:

honestly, i'm not entirely sure as to why it's compressed. the speed change is the only thing i could think of to point to it, but i don't have enough audio-related knowledge to know why. thank you for your review though, i enjoyed making this track.

[Halcyone]

Pleasant listening (though a lot of that's pretty tied to the awesome source material). Nice cover either way!

Svenzo responds:

Thanks,glad to hear

[Optic Fiber]

Well that was a ride. Really, really well handled transitions and each section of the song sounded great too :)

AlbeGian responds:

Thank you, super glad you liked it!

[Recorder.wav]

The fact that the last few minutes are actually pretty pleasant is impressive. Taken as a whole though there's not a whole lot for the listener. Cool experiment though.

ZappaFan52 responds:

Yeah the first half of it just kind of came out as a really harsh wash tbh lol I tried to do some neat things with the stereo field and the way each note sat in it but I'm not sure that came across very well so I made sure for the last bit to be a little more melodic lol

[Jeri - Fresh Air]

Despite being pretty heavily processed, I got a real Beck vibe from your vocals. Nice, relaxing piece yo :)

FromFinn responds:

Thank you very much for your feedback, I greatly appreciate it!

[If You'd Only Listened For A While]

Love the sound! It's a little washed production wise, but that works for the theme overall. It's got a good progression and you executed the change up around 1:46 really well.

Only gripe with it might be that the drones kinda over power the vocals here and there making it hard to make out the lyrics. Great work otherwise!

RedSoul92 responds:

Thanks for the feedback, I agree that I may have went overboard on the blurriness, getting the vocals to stand out of the mix has always been an aspect I struggle with.

[SynthMadness 2]

This is a really well little crafted piece. All the synths really work well together while being pretty distinctive in the mix. Also a fan of how you managed the beat throughout the song. Good work yo!

TenodiBoris responds:

Thank you 😊

[Ancient Mystery]

Dear goodness, it's like a funky version of some backing tracks from Age of Empires back in the day. Interesting track, really like where you take it in the later half

Thanks a bunch
