K-Pone's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Secret of the Ruins]

Which ruins you ever mean, they must be awesome

johnfn responds:

Ruins are ALWAYS awesome. :D

[Exploring]

That sounds cool. I like modern sounds mixed with 8bit sounds.

johnfn responds:

Thanks! The style of modernizing 8 bit sounds is called 9 bit, in case you were curious.

[Stimulate]

This rocks. Just awesome.

Geoplex responds:

Thanks :3
Gonna make some moar stuff like this I think.

[Modern Talking (Remix)]

Sounds cool. I don't like Modern Talking very much, but this makes it just sound better.

kirja100 responds:

Retro Disco - our days :DD

[crush chords]

yes.

ArcaneSoul responds:

if i can get around it, sure

["Club Chase" Scene - ST]

Cool funky house music. In my opinion the one synth has a bit too much portamento (it's pitchbending up and down too long), but it's kinda cool so far.

KittenBeat responds:

I'm a little bit shocked that you thought that I might not know what portamento was. o.o
Anyways, I think it's fine, especially since I'm basically replicating old, cheap garage house music. :3

[VGM - Decisive Battle]

For a real battle music it misses sime deep and hard bassdrum and a snare drum. But the rest fits well.

JRob responds:

There are a lot of good battle themes that DON'T have bass/kick drums or snares (or a typical drum kit for that matter) and use orchestral percussion instruments (timpani for example). The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (large influence in this song), Okami (which I highly recommend), and One-Winged Angel (original) are perfect examples. I actually avoided using the typical drum kit instruments to give it more of a feel like the examples I just gave. The theme that had the biggest influence in this song was the final boss in Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time (Shroob queen part two, to be exact), again, uses timpani instead of kick drum and snares.

[Planet Genocide]

I would put this into a movie. In a scene where the enemy comes to destroy us. Alien invasion! Thumbs up!

TheDoomrider responds:

YEAH! That would be AWESOME! :D

[A place far far away]

Sounds like a ballad. To bad we don't have this genre in the audio portal (yet?). Very cool.

BassTwister responds:

Yeah it is :) This is just a preview version. The full will propably have singing^^ And I hope they ad ballad to the genre list!

Nice work. It somehow reminds me a little bit on Mario 64 and Super Smash Bros Brawl, but I guess it's only because of a few notes (which might apply for the others as well since there are about 8 notes that sound quite similar to the melody in the music of one stage in Mario 64)

Geoplex responds:

I looked up a few of the songs people mentioned it was similar to, and I do notice the similarity.

Dude in retrospect I totally almost made the super smash brothers melee theme in one of the sections lol
