trixelbit's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[[NGADM Round3] I'm 90% sure this Club is Haunted]

This was an absolute joy to listen too!!
The vocals, vibes, and super distinct sound design.

I had a stupid grin plastered on my face the whole time.

Super fun ride, thanks for the awesome track!

GameBoyFireworks responds:

Thank you so much for that very kind review. Good luck this round my friend!

[Bounce Dat!]

Gosh, this nails so many different vibes.

Super chill with a constant energy. There's times where it feels right at home as a stage theme for Sackboy's Big Adventure. Then there's moments like 1:44 that have licks and harmonic movements that are kinda reminiscent old fighting sound tracks like Street Fight 3rd Strike.

There are elements to your production and mix that feel so clean and modern, but then there are instrument choices and accents that feel like samples played through old trackers, calling back to an older generation of music production.

Even though I'm using games as references points for components of your song, the whole is fundamentally unique with a distinct identity.

Really awesome song and execution! Will definitely be peepin more of your work!

ThatAndyGuy responds:

Wow, wasn't expecting the in depth review, but I truly appreciate it! Hope ya dig the future stuff as well! <3

[Sunset Chillout]

Just peeped this out of curiosity and was not expecting this parasite to dig into my ear.

I started off just listening critically, paying attention to the cool details in sound design and mixing.

Cut to 5 loops later and I'm doing orange justice in my basement, completely distracted from level designing.

Suffice it to say, I really enjoyed this track! Awesome stuff!

ADR3-N responds:

Thank you! This is what I would have been doing to your track had I not had a competition to get back to haha. It's very much something I could put on repeat.

This one started out as a little shit post, creating loops, cutting, chopping, and deleting little bits. I didn't expect it to turn into a full song, or even be good. Glad you liked it!

[Could've been something Neat...]

I was howling when I read your title and description!

I had terrible writer's block, scrapped a bunch of ideas, and waited last minute to make something.

Making it to top 16 also made me feel guilty about not going as hard. But seeing you also struggled with that too lifted that weight off my shoulders.

Despite your struggles, this is still sick and had me invested for the ride.
Really feels like it's easing me into a new world. Very cinematic!
If you do finish this, I would like to admire the final vision you had.

Good luck in the competition, and good job persevering to the finish line!

EppuJoloZ responds:

I was pumped to be in the same group as you, cuz it would've definitely been a very close battle! But I underdelivered and sometimes it do be like that :'D. Your submission is still great, wishing you best of luck for the Quarter Finals!

[Space Truckin]

Even with the lack of lyrics this is still a really sick track to listen to! Especially that switch at 1:50. It had me banging my head in bed!

Great stuff and good luck on the competition!

Percentblue responds:

That you so much for such an awesome comment! I really appreciate it!!!!!! I’m glad it got your head rockin!

[PARTY HATZ! - Captain Obvious]

Just listening to the audio alone, this felt so familiar and yet so new!

Then I read the description and man, you hit that nostalgia nail on the head!

Makes me want boot up my ps3 and play some little big planet.

Awesome stuff! Good luck on the NGADM!

PARTYHATZ responds:

thank you thank you!! good luck to you as well :3

[Lucifer's Sewing Machine]

Realy awesome song! Loved the pinch harmonics and this weirdly enough reminded of Yuta Romeo Castlevania rock covers.

The tone of the lead especially! Really awesome, can't wait to hear more!

ValerianWitch responds:

Thanks for the kind words :3. Your NGADM track was really amazing too

[8.17 AM]

My friend. Dis is banger! I will listen to this as I wax my calves in the morning.

But fr, really great sound design! The vibe is immaculate and I can see this in a ton of different settings in games. Good luck in the NGADM!

EppuJoloZ responds:

tysm!! Best of luck to you too, your submission is awesome :)

[Anima]

That vocal intro and resolution alone makes it 5/5 for me. Awesome atmosphere and sense of space. The section at 2:13 brings me to an overworld in an RPG.
And the flute just ties this song up with such a nice bow.

An awesome work that's going into my mental musical vault.

etherealwinds responds:

Thank you so much trixel!! :)

[a song with a cut-release piano]

Really digging this beat! Gotta love chopped pianos and a banger basslines.

Especially at the end, super yummy stuff man!

GxPanda responds:

Thank you, rlly appreciate your feedback :)
