GundorSound's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[My Gamer Girl]

Damn this song is so full of life! I love it. You're really great with chiptune, as always, but the drum & bass + vocals are implemented great as well. Proud of you and your growth, I'm glad you've kept your inspiration for making music through it.

JohnMontoya responds:

Words cannot express how much this means to me. Thank you so much. :)

[Dreams of Paradise City]

AWW MAN I LOVE THIS, this is such a style I can get behind lately! Modern drum and bass coupled with the chiptune works just makes me happy to hear. So upbeat and vibrant. And you made the entrance at 0:24 flawless.

JohnMontoya responds:

WOW! Thank you so much for saying that! I really hope my next songs are up to par with this one! Maybe I should start releasing a new song every Saturday? That'd be a fun challenge! Maybe I should put this on Spotify as well? The possibilities are endless!

[Pina Is Okay]

I feel you on the music making. This is the longest stretch of free time I've had in forever, for better or for worse. I really like this!! It's rainstorming outside right now, too, so I think I have the perfect atmosphere for listening.

Your choice in percussion is great, I think it made the whole song come together so well. Makes me think of Stardew Valley if you've ever played it.

Felocai responds:

Well it's supposed to be a bit of a rain mood song, but in a good way, because i actually like when it rains in summer, so I'm happy that you had the proper mood set.
I'm also happy i managed to encapsulate that feeling in these four minutes.
Thanks for the comment!

[MELT (OST)]

This is awesome. What a good mix of sounds and none of them drown each other out. I honestly checked out the game just because I knew it had to be good to go with a song like this, and I was right. Melt is rad. Nice job on the score for it!

ConnorGrail responds:

Glad you like the song, and double glad you had fun with the game as a result!

[AIM 2020 - For You, My Princess]

This is awesome! When all the instruments came together at 2:35 I got goosebumps. I think perhaps the song takes a bit too long to get to the intense parts (2:15 and on when it's coming to a close) but honestly that's just personal preference. I see the merit to having an extended intro like you do and it works just fine. Anyway I loved listening! Good job

TrandafirTeodora responds:

Thank you so much!

[Wave Sauce]

I absolutely love the whole mid-section to this song! The rest is great, but the melody and chord progression during 1:03-1:30 was, I think, the best part of the song. Awesome. Percussion was rad the whole way through as well. Sounds very good with the instruments you chose

AKJanklin responds:

Glad you enjoyed! I do agree that the middle is the best part, I think the leads on the two ends could be less "intrusive," but I never could get a satisfactory substitute, thus why I still have them.

[greenfield]

I really like this!! It kind of reminds me of Maplestory, if you've ever played it and realize the vibe it's giving me. 0:42-0:53 is my favorite part. The whole thing sounds like it would fit great as some sort of BGM in a video game village, maybe that's what you were going for with a name like Greenfield. Cool song!

trevor8 responds:

Thanks! i have not experienced maple story, but i definetly had some sort of towny theme thing in mind.

[In-Game B from The Grand Grimoire Chronicles - Episode 3]

This is such a good separate rendition of your in-game theme! I feel like after listening to A and B I can probably grasp what the atmosphere of the game is like. You really did a good job changing it to sound more foreboding without losing its spirit

JohnMontoya responds:

Thank you so much! I'm so glad that someone caught on to that! I'm a fan of soundtracks that have a reoccurring theme/melody. This soundtrack was no exception. You win a bunch of internet points. :)

[Issue is 2]

Kept my interest throughout the whole thing even with such a slow pace, the pad you chose for the background sounds AWESOME here it gave me goosebumps when it came in at 0:23. Song sounds very reflective and ambient
