Durakone's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Nowhere to go]

power

carried really well and the beat is just great, going into my workout mix

[Madness Theme - Uprising]

Good stuff

thats so weird that magiterdark said Resident Evil, because thats exactly what I was thinking(as well as "The Thing", minus the cheesy 80's synth), but anyway, excellent control and especially finish.

[Nuclear Winter Disaster]

good work

name fit the music like a glove

[These Mistakes are Mine Alone]

Great

I was on the fence about the long buildup, but it just made the beat more intense when it finally hit, undecided if I feel the wizard, but that probably means I like it too.

[Piano Echoes - Mjattie]

Beautiful stuff

That's what piano synth is all about, subtlety is the KEY and your control over this is flawless! Some of these artist have a knack for falling short in the final segment of the song but you blew me away with the end, good work!

mjattie responds:

w00t thanks XD

[Drivin']

drivin home

I like it and it does give me the driving feel. Only thing wrong with it is the cymbals being a bit too loud.

Iplaygames responds:

hmm... okay thanks

[You May Not Leave This PlaceV1]

moving

very emotional stuff, though 0:54 felt too sour, even for the tone of the piece. through and through it was great

Zero123Music responds:

thanks

[[Reign of the Empyre] (Raw)]

The Story

I think this version is more powerful because it has a really good balance between complex and the abstract. Dare I say cyberpunk? Kinda fleshes out the mood of a book I'm reading, takes place in the ghettos of NY. I think you should make a transition with strings on top of the piano to get to the "weeO weeO" backround loop, or maybe try to substitute that 'weeO' with violin altogether, taking inspiration from "clubbed to death". I don't want to sound too picky, because I love it, just giving you feedback.

dj-KDUB responds:

dude don't worry about it. i love the constructive criticism. it makes me a better artist! what a good review!

[In The Middle Of Nowhere]

abstract awesome

The subtlety made it perfect. Awesome and slightly unnerving. Totally going into my halloween mix this year and thereafter.
