Takoon's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Kirby Super Star - Dynablade 1]

I want to dance now!

This is really great! Perfect dance mix for this song! Just pure happiness and Kirby. ^ ^ Great job!

[Khuskan - Elevator music 2007]

Haha. Lurve.

That's really awesome. I heard this in Madness Manufactory, but then I was randomly browsing the jazz section for stuff and saw this. *lol* Very cool. I love that you actually made elevator music. That's what the audio section should really be for: music for flash.

[Over The Rainbow]

Nice. ^ ^

I agree about the breath, but the rest was really fantastic. ^ ^ The tone was beautiful, and it kind of reminded me of something...besides the obvious. ^ ~ Hm, I'm thinking something from Ouran High School Host Club? But that wouldn't make sense. *shrugs*

Oh well, either way, great job. ^ ^

TheIronGiant responds:

thank you, im really glad you liked it, especially the tone, which is something im always working to improve.
thanks again!

[Thracian-Jazz]

Very nice. ^ ^ Keep it up.

Wow, really interesting. I agree with the last guy too, in that it was kind of misleading, but came back to a real sound. I really like the harmonies right in the middle, too. That kind of made my heart melt. ^ ^

The only thing I would change it to shave off a few seconds right at the beginning so it's not such a long wait.

sorohanro responds:

he he , you should have more patience ... the begining sets the groove, wich is not a very common jazz one :p
thanx for reviewing my stuff, glad you liked it

[When I fall in Love]

Oh man, I just went to my happy place again.

Very nice and smooth. I really like this song, and my school's advanced women's ensemble is singing this. Honestly though, I'd rather have us all play it like this instead of sing it. We don't have the hazy, happy jazz sound yet.

But you do, obviously. ^ ~ I really can't criticize it. It's fantastic.

[Wrench Ninja - Street Beat]

Wow, that tickled my ears.

Ah, very clean and rhythmic. It has a traditional feel, but also reminds me of a subway station a little. I'm completely obsessed with good loops, too. Flawless transition. ^ ^ I didn't even know that the time had run out until I looked up from the review.

Great job. The only thing I can suggest is adding a little more of a climax with yet another drum. ^ ^

[[SM-K] Link Vs. Mario - MGR]

Wow, very cool.

I love that song from Majora's Mask. ^ ^ I always wanted that on the soundtrack, but alas, it never was. Kind of a grinding feeling for this song, which is kind of interesting, and not bad. That's the feeling that I get when I walk past the music box house in the game, but I just feel it, and don't hear it. ^ ~ Nice interpretation.

It's great that half-way through you used lots of sound-effects, too. And then went into the evil Bowser thing with the Boo merry-go-round. *lol* The use of sound-effects, oh man! ^.^ So good. Love it to pieces.

There was only one part in the middle where you used a LOT of Link voices consecutively, and that kind of distracted me for a little while. I think either more variety in that part, or with less frequency would be better.

Good show!

[Sexy Jazz]

Yea, verily.

I know it's been said, but the percussion in the background is really amazing! I love how it's almost challenging to listen to, because I'm trying to pick it apart in my mind. ^ ^ It's still relaxed though, even though it has an upbeat feel. I'm not sure how it happened, but it's the perfect balance.

Very sexy.

[Crazy Voice Trumpet Solo]

Haha. It's a "trumpet."

Oh wow, nice work. I love that you just used your voice for the background and solo part. I agree with others that said it would have been great if you just used your voice for the choir voices too. Then it would be a little less ethereal and a little more minimalistic, you know?

Fantastic job with this. It kind of blows my mind.

sorohanro responds:

well, being apreciate by a classical singer ... that's something
thanx
i have also classical music studies, i am a trumpet player, that's why i made "trumpet" because is something i know how is supossed to sound ... as for the "ethereal" sampled voices ... well, those are better than mine (i really don't like my voice)

playng on instruments helps you to think in a "instrument player" way also when you sing ...
thanx for review
