Tangerine's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pachelbel's Canon]

10/10 this piece still gives me nightmares

DustifiedGD responds:

Based piece honestly

[AIM - Bellowers of Grief]

This is wonderful. I love orchestral music so much, haha. Not only is it fun to listen to, it's also fun to make. Best of luck with the NGUAC!

Everratic responds:

Thank you!

[Darkness Rising]

I can never get over those action drums. Putting them along with the low strings makes for an epic sound. I also love how you used the snare and high hat sounding percussion in the middle section to build suspense. Awesome track Benji!

DauntingForce responds:

Thank you Tangerine!

[Far Beyond]

I really love the mix of orchestral sounds and the wubs. I love this so much. I also love the percussive strings in the intro. As well as the vocals later on. Did you record yourself?

Benji-G responds:

Hey Tangerine, thanks a lot! And yeah I recorded the vocals myself, I'm glad you like them :)

[GizzyKittyMusic - Experiment 501]

Omg, I love your harmonies, haha. Ending on a borrowed minor chord gives the biggest feeling of nostalgia. Also, I didn't realize I loved pizzicato so much. You have such a lovely combination of instruments.

What soundfont/vst plugin do you use? It reminds me a lot of an old soundfont I used to use called SGM.

Also, Laura Shigihara's music is lovely haha. I can't stop listening to Graze the Roof.

GizzyKittyMusic responds:

Thanks for the kind words! All of the sounds I use come directly from the free MIDI instruments provided in the BandLab app

[South Dakota]

Oh shoot, this one was way groovier than I could have ever expected. If I'm being honest, I don't have much to say about this one. Good-sounding music falls out of my area of expertise haha. You should really do more songs of this genre, I think you've got a good ear for it. It's not exactly wub wub level dubstep, but I still like it a lot. 01:09 you just went for it haha, I really like it. I think you did a great job with the bass in this section.

Oh my, the day is finally about to come. The day you do your final state. You better end your 3 (or so) year journey with a bang haha.

50Steaks responds:

I know right! I really just dug into the grooviness this time. I haven’t experimented much with the full on dubstep genre until now, though I have dabbled in pseudo-dubstep like Nevada or New Jersey. I was considering what section to add after that first drop part, and I realized that some well-sounding bassy dance part would sound great with the synths I used.

One of the caveats when it comes to the finale that fl studio says I’ve already spent over a hundred hours on (although it counts time out of the app as well, so I’d say it’s closer to 40) is that I really would like it to be frontpaged. It’s the finale to my greatest contribution to society so far, I want people to see it! No joke, this series is my biggest not just music project, but project in general. If I end up doing the alphabet next, that means 26 songs instead of 50, and I have a sneaking suspicion that that series might take even longer than 3 years at my current upload schedule. We went from 3-4 songs a month to like 4-5 songs a year it feels like. I’m going to have to rethink my strategy at some point, haha.

To end off my long reply, I’m going to give another clue about the finale. All but two of my songs (Georgia and Michigan) share the same time signatures: 3/4 and 4/4. Hence, the finale will somehow reflect these time signatures simultaneously.

[sorry im late]

This feels so nostalgic for some reason. 10/10
