Chaotichism's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Elfire - Necro Syncrosis]

I have no words...

I just danced to this about three times straight. And I love how it loops too. It's awesome. Everything's nice and clear, concise in a way.

OK, those are a few words. But I just can't say anything else about it. 10/10. 5/5. Faved.

[Enemies (industrialnoiser]

What Reznor's orgasms sound like.

Or at least SHOULD sound like.

This sounds like trailer music for one of those low-budget post-apocalyptic action/suspense flicks no one knows about. This is just perfect in every aspect of the word. I seriously can't find anything wrong with this piece. It's gritty, depressing in tone, uplifting in noise, and...I can't even get technical with this.

This shit's fuckin' awesome.

[Tainted By The Light]

Reminds me of VNV Nation.

I liked that it wasn't too loud. The volume balance was quite on point, and the vocals were just right. I liked the emotion conveyed by the vox, too. God, the synth you used was perfect. And there really wasn't too much necessary for this song.

One concern I have with this song is the chorus, if it can be called that. It sounds good as is, but I just feel like it's missing something. May just be my ears. The other thing: The song reaches a high point, then brings itself back down, then reaches high again. Just feel like one more verse would probably complete it. But it just feels too short-lived.

Song is great, though. I was singing and dancing to this, even though I don't know the words just yet. Getting there, though. 9/10. 5/5. Faved.

[Theeketel - Elf]

I think you got 0 bombed or something...

I refreshed once and couldn't find this near the top of the list. But no matter, this live session sounds like quite a fun and enjoyable one. Everything was placed rhythmically and the industrial is topped off with ambient frosting. (Now I want cake...)

I think of a chaotic battle between demigods that ends up destroying the world they tried to protect, or something of that nature. Please do NOT stop making music.

AliceMako responds:

Mmmh, dessert analogies right after i finish my rations, good choice of words.

I allways have myself a blast when performing and this piece is no exception, listening back to it now i can't help but feel excited to do it again, allso as usual.

A cursory glance out the window suggests there is, in fact, nobody and their army of fire breathing dragons coming to stop me, i'll take the liberty of making the bold assumption this implies i am still good to go :3

[Dream World~]

The only suggestions...

I would say adding more reverb to the snare you used would make it seem, in my opinion, a bit more ethereal. And perhaps the addition of another, strong snare if the reverb idea doesn't really cut it. OK, now that I got that out of the way...

This piece is beautiful. Not sure if I should call it industrial, and I really don't care. This is simply beautiful. I love when strings are implemented into music that would otherwise "not need them," and I love how you implemented them into this song. Very well composed. 9/10, 5/5, faved.

[Powers Combined]

"Uncharted"-era

Honestly, only because the climax of the song could have been more. But I couldn't help but think that E.S. Posthumus inspired this piece a bit. This really sounds like something they would have made a few years ago. The combination was flawless here. I wasn't expecting to hear any guitar, but it sounded great. I like what I'm hearing.

Faved.

[VengeanceIsOurReligion]

Bringing me back...

It's been a while since I've been listening to metal. And a while since I've heard GOOD metal. The instrumentation is flawless, steady vocals, and...oh, fuck it. This is fucking badass. Caught myself grunting the lyrics along with you guys. And air guitaring, too.

[Kennidy Souza - Character]

Damn...

I really want to get into voice acting now.

This was just perfect. You've conveyed so many different characters and personalities in this reel. If you aren't a "professional voice actor" now, you will be in the future.

[5teen]

Definitely interesting.

I liked the collection of sounds and samples you used to give it a frenetic industrial feel. And the panning was quite well done in my ears. The problem I had was that I had trouble hearing the bass kicks, and frantic as they were in nature. Overall a good song, though.

Yes, this is five years later. Don't judge.

[Little Miss Sinister]

Simple and sweet.

It sounds like it belongs in a "final boss" cave. I like that it seems to have no beginning or end. There aren't many elements to it, which is perfect for an atmospheric loop like this. I would suggest a bit of reverb for the snare you used, just to make it sound a bit more like that cave. And the "hat" you used seems a bit overpowering. But other than that, I like it.

AliceMako responds:

Yeah, it could do with tweaking if i ever get round to it. My working file is actually just the centre piece of this, didn´t do much to edit bar give it a midsection to have it loop.

All samples used are field recordings courtesy of the local morgue, the hat in question is actually a scalpel being placed in a tray, the snare is from canned air that i pitchshifted.

Glad you like :3
