Dkoshi's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Super Mario Bros 3 - Over]

Perfect except one thing

It's almost perfect but the interludes between the three parts, the first part being at :18-19 and :48-49 being the second, and the last being at 1:19-20. It just doesn't seem to hit the right pitch. I believe that the pitch should have gone down instead of up during these short, but critical moments in the repeat. (Just my opinion)

HOWEVER
This is an amazing rendition of the classical that we know. I'm a huge Super Mario fan and I look out for the little masterpieces like this. I rarely write reviews on pieces because they fail to entertain like the original does. This would surpass the original if it weren't for the mistake.

Initial Score: 10
Minor error: -1
Final Score: 9

[Fear Factory Redux - DKCountry]

It's been a long time..

Since I played any of the old classics for the SNES, but I remember some of the factory levels, where the fun and difficulty were at an even pace, that part of the game always marked for me the end of easy fun and hard trials. Almost every game does that.

Anyway, with the new announcement of Retro Studios taking a stab at the DK series, that is going back to its roots, is a great thing to hear. Hopefully they can surpass the old glory and bring gaming back to when it was fun just to play the game and not be an achievement grabber.

As I wrote the majority of this, I didn't hear anything out of place and it left a good sound in the background as I reminisced on all the DKC games. Great job here and keep the good themes a rolling.

[Teh Tricky Techno!]

You know

To me it sounds like Popeye the Sailor man's theme song.
Course I used to watch the show all the time.

[SuperMario World Castle- Piano]

Nice but missing one thing

Overall this is a great replication of the castle theme. However you are missing the deeper darker notes that brought this melody to be known as the castle theme. I still like it a great deal, but it would be loads better with deeper notes.

[Centaur Smash!]

you know

This could be a level song for Donkey Kong Country back on the SNES
prolly one of the weird out there levels that need an ambiance instead of in your face sound.
It's a decent Techno song

[-ganon95- Tetris 3]

Very interesting

This is very unique in the sea of tetris remixes. Most remixes are short and very stiff in relation to the original. Granted you can only do so much to a song before it becomes unrecognizable from it. I especially like from 3:22 to 3:53. Just something about that part sets it out from everything. Even the similar sound from earlier in the song.
In my favs it goes.

ganon95 responds:

thanks, this one took me a while to make. My favorite part in this is when the guitars first come in

[Tetris Universe: Oceanic]

Tetris brought me here...

But the song itself is why I'm faving this. This had a very interesting beginning. I was looking for the tetris intro but it didn't come at first. The bellish sound for the start of the tetris theme was a good idea for it.
Nice work

[Mario Mix for Piano]

Of all the mario themes

I've never heard this one in game. I've played alot of mario games.. but I haven't the slightest which one this one was in. Other than that comment. I really like the calm beginning and then it gets kinda silly in the end. It's good. Keep it up.

[Yoshi's Nostalgia - [Remix]]

My other favorite part of the game

I loved this song when I finished the game.. but my favorite for the game is the beginning theme. It's a good lullaby song for unruly kids X3

[Mario Kart 64: Rainbow Ride]

Out of...

All the Rainbow Road remixes... I find one that I like.. but It's too short.
That's my favorite track for the 64 version of mario kart. Great remix... but I'm giving ya a nine cos it's too short.
