Tangerine's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[winter caves]

Hey, great job! This is exactly what I'd imagine hearing in a cold winter cave. Maybe some strings in the background could help with the cold wintery feeling. Sort of like Winter Bliss https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDHZgVf8xsU. Good job on the song none-the-less.

thanks :3, i will try to work more on the next ones, i usually try to make something simple-ish for being used on a game soundtrack

[Circle]

This sounds really nice! 00:35 sounds a little strange. Sounds discordant. other than that it sounds amazing.

Surkol responds:

Thanks!! Yea you're 100% right. There is a note or two that is discordant/out of tune but I kept it cause it didn't sound that bad. I could say it's an artistic choice but it's more me being lazy

[Jazz Standards]

Veenom back at it again. This one sounds amazing. I really love the bass line throughout the song and the otamatone holding an amazing melody. The two things I'd change is the incredibly active start, perhaps have a beat or two to quickly warm the listener up and the i'd change the panning of the instruments. It might pay off a little to bring the piano more towards the centre. Other than that, amazing job! It sounds fantastic.

Veenomn responds:

Thanks! :D

[Funky Galileo]

If you did in fact create this then good job! It sounds great. I'm just a little suspicious of something like this coming from an account with no previous content on it called BruhShashumga123. Assuming that you did create this, I really like vocal melody. Although one thing i'd change is the bass and the beep boop sounding thing from the left ear. I'd pan that more to the center.

[Le Fart]

Bravo! I really love the passion put into this composition. I could really see this being performed in a giant Vienna concert hall. Absolutely outstanding. I really love the use of the magical chord 𝑥² Major in the beginning half of the composition and then the sudden dramatic change into the most intense key signature P# Minor. I also really love how you utilized the time signature 0.0023/yes to bring out the truly perfected rhythm of this piece. I wait with an unmeasurable level of excitement for your next masterful and well thought-out composition.

[Main Titles]

This is very interesting interpretation of jazz. What did you make this on?

[In the Maze]

What is this? Do a little more with the piano than just to play f natural over and over for the beginning part. If you want to make music without using royalty free samples then I'd recommend using something like Auxy or hookpad. Auxy only works on apple ipads and things. Hookpad however is the way I learnt harmonic theory. It encourages you to use chord progressions and it's a good way to make music. I sometimes use it just to find chords. If you learn harmonic theory through hookpad then you can move on to bigger less forgiving software like Logic, Fl Studio or Sibelius. I await to hear what you do with this knowledge.

[Wyoming]

I really like this one. It feels so much more different than the other ones and I really like how you're starting to mix things up a little. Feels much less ominous and much more friendly and slightly happy. I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks that. I really like how you had a little reset section where you played the intro again. I think it was really nice and impactful. Welldone 50Steaks. I think you did really well on this one :).

50Steaks responds:

Thank you! I try not to overload one specific mood or genre. Although I started doing ambient tracks in 2020 with Alaska, this is the first one that I think truly accomplished exactly what I wanted from an atmospheric song. I think this is proven by its 430ish listens, making it far and away the most popular thing I've ever released on this account.

[Happy Silly Place.]

This sounds great, very hyper and happy. Sounds exactly like what I'd expect from something called "Happy Silly Place". Reminds me a lot of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQ6Fq-LfDZQ. Something that may have sounded good is if you added another bridging section around 1:00 with offbeat flutes and piano whilst it goes through the chord progression. Then when it gets near the end of the phrase you speed them up to something like semi-quavers and then have a giant finish of pure happiness and joy to wrap up the piece with a more satisfying conclusion. Still, without that last little bit, it sounds awesome. Keep it up!
