WingoWinston's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[<pixel> Village in the Cave]

I definitely hear the Steven Universe in this.

Well done.

trixelbit responds:

Thank you for the kind words!

[Harmonic Debasment]

The percussion sounds a little sloppy at times but I think it's only due to the quality of your VST. Otherwise I really enjoyed the percussion to this piece, very well put together. Very "video-game-esque."

Well done.

Aisnon-A responds:

I agree. The quality and arrangement of the percussion track is completely due to my mastering and equalizing skills, which are evidently mediocre, if not, sub-par. In any case, the affirmation builds a basis for me, and improving is personal value.

Your review and time is appreciated. Thank you for listening. The feedback will help me for future projects.

[Are You Afraid?]

Really liked the tempo and the swing. Reminded me of Taco's version of Puttin' on the Ritz. Awesome job Zipper.

ZipZipper responds:

(& steampianist) :l

[Rainforest]

This has some nice crunch in it. I dig. Some of the instruments, I don't know what it is, but I get a weird nostalgic RPG feel. At any rate, great work.

Pandasticality responds:

im glad you like it n__n i worked hard on it, hmm i've gotten the RPG mention in a few reviews, i wonder if i should try making RPG-ish Dubstep next, thats something i haven't tried yet.

[Le Backyard Song Acoustic WIP]

Salut mon collègue Canadien! You have an interesting sound. It is reminiscent of some of the music that was being produced during the Vietnam War. Keep it up!

DonStracci responds:

Thank you sir for the review and to put your trust in me with your scouting proposal! I appreciate it

[Oxygen Flow]

This sounds quite alright for someone who is new to songs. It makes me think of a sky world; Somewhere higher up. My criticisms would be that it is a little short, but it could be easily looped, so this is fine. There isn't really a definite melody to the song. If you were going for something a little more ambient - something to create atmosphere - then you got that right, but as a singular song it doesn't hold up, it needs a bit more substance. Still, a great job for a new composer, keep up the hard work and you'll improve in no time!

Kr0n0L0gik responds:

Thank you ! :D

[Sour]

Why did you have to add the synth? It really takes away from the grunge and turns it in to something that completely perverts the genre. This song would have been stronger without the choice of synth you made. Definitely add vocals and re upload this song.

marsonNG responds:

Thanks for the review. I agree, I think this song would be a lot better with vocals but I should have mentioned the reason I used synths is because my singing voice is very average. I don't have the tone or vocal range to sing this song the way i'd like it to be sung and I don't know any good singers i can work with yet... i'm looking.. in fact trying to start a band.. but that's a whole other thing. Think of this as a sort of demo track. Also I will admit the synths do take away from the grunge a fair bit but I did want the song to be a bit weird in some ways like with the synth pedal effect on the lead guitar in the solo, so it's not your traditional sort of grunge in that sense. I really would love to re-upload this song with vocals... hopefully someday.

[He's a Pirate - Remix]

The intro to the song is very hard to listen to. You need to work on the syncopation and maybe invest/find better VST. The song does pick up a little, with a generic but fitting drum beat. I see potential though, keep it up!

frankvg responds:

Thank you.... I am using FL studio 11 but its hard to use, as I'm really new into mixing and stuff...
Thanks for seeing potential in me :) I do play the keyboard so thats why I know the notes etc.

Thanks for your feedback!!!

[Atonement]

This is a nice song. I found the piano maybe just a tad too hollow. Also it felt like you could have introduced your higher register instruments a bit earlier in to the song. It feels like I have to drag myself along to the climax.

Still a great piece though, when the climax does arrive, it is well done and nicely composed. Keep it up!

Thonz responds:

Thanks, I really appreciate the feedback! :) And thank you for the scout as well.

[new audio]

Your song is way too busy. You need to work on equalization and mastering your works!

3DRealms responds:

You are a disease. I am the cure.
