Cacola's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ambushed]

Reminds me of Portal 2, which is a VERY good thing!
How did you you make that bleepy synth? I wanna use it.

larrynachos responds:

It was in the 8dio dubstep library I told you about ^^

[Zombie]

I like it! Very catchy and atmospheric. It reminds me of Grant Kirkhope's work.
Good job!

Tonio responds:

thanks

[Atlas' Respite]

I'm not all that familiar with classical music, but this sounds very good! I could see this being used in a tv show or a movie, it sounds really professional!
My only complaint is that it sounds a BIT fake, but it's not really all that noticeable.
Great job!

TasteLeRainbow responds:

Thanks man. I don't have money for legit sounds or anything, so this is the best I can do.

[Revived]

Holy f**k dude, this is my new favorite song from you. I'm jealous of how good you are at this style of Trance. I don't know why you seem to dislike this song, it's so awesome!

larrynachos responds:

Yes, the melodies are nice, but it's composed so terribly. It's just kinda thrown together in a clusterfuck of noise, and there isn't much variation. Thanks for the review, though ^^

[Strings and Synths]

Oh man, I really wish I knew how to make trance like this, it sounds so good!
The main synth is really what made it awesome.
I love the use of strings as well, it really tied the song together.
Fantastic job!

larrynachos responds:

Thanks Cacola :)

[Illusions (Step 2)]

The solo sounds beautiful, I'm so excited to hear the finished version!

[Illusions (Step 1)]

You continue to blow me away with every song you release, and this is no exception.
Reminds me a lot of deadmau5's 2007/2008 work, which is a very good thing!
I think you should keep the first minute or so like this, and put the lead a bit later on.

[[Trapstyle] Djinn the Ratchet]

Pretty good, I loved the synth choice. although I've never heard the original, so I'll be critiquing this on it's own.
The intro was too quiet, so I turned my volume up, which was a bad idea because the rest of the song was loud, try to keep the volume more consistent.
I really liked the piano at 1:12, but the synth at 1:15 REALLY annoyed me.
I like the build up at 2:23, it's really suspenseful. But the drop was a bit too chaotic for me, especially the drums. And the whole drop was kind of dissonant.
Overall, not bad though. Just try to keep things less chaotic in the future.

MegaMettaurX responds:

The purpose of the drop was to be chaotic. Maybe I'll change the fade in. But that drop is staying because it was intentional. Thanks for the review though.

[The Last Show (Saigo no kōen)]

Holy f**k, this is fantastic!
Besides the drums, everything sounded like a real instrument, and the synths were some of the most epic sounding things I've ever heard!
Amazing job man, it blew me away!

larrynachos responds:

Yeah, I should have replaced the drums with ezDrummer. Thanks a bunch!
