AliceMako's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Makommander]

Nice work, kind of videogame soudtrack meets clubby ebm.

[Leaving The Planet]

Welcome to newground, enjoy your stay.

[Sonic Pressure]

That's a terrific drone, borders on something cinematic.

Make more.

It's my girlfriends oven. (with effects of course)
thank you, I'm glad you like it, theres plenty more to come.

[NOTHING IS REAL - THE AWAKENING - (Ambient / DuB)]

Superb noisescape old man.

None of this is real except that we're all really dead, cue a lifetime of trying to make sense of it all.

[POLY: Carnivale Kenjataimu]

Vocals and the beat fit but feel a bit like window dressing for some reason or another.

The syncopated synth reminds me of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_ejoGVeqzQ and i'm torn between liking it or that electro-esque riff best, both are very pleasing though.

[Bathe In Molten Steel]

Goes from ponderous to cybergoth anthem to my ears and remains there pretty consistently, sounds top notch as usual and why would you want to make your xeon break a sweat anyway, that would be indicative of trying to fit everything in including the kitchen sink.

Parts of it sound like you're leaving room for vocals only to follow it up with a bit of no i don't, i guess that's from being more spontaneous eh? :3

The only thing here, to me, that is hitting a pig with a spanner is that piano near the end. For whatever reason i think i'd like it better if it actually was a bit cleaner sounding.

Overal, enjoyeable stuf as usual.

Lich responds:

I have zero clue why I even included the Piano. I was like "Maybe I could Saturate it and see what it sounds like, muahahaha!" and after a few post-release playbacks I don't really like that part much anymore typically :P

I did make a vow for this one, no vocals. It's too messey for it to really work (plus I'm waiting for my Boss SE-50 half-rack to turn up from an ebay seller I got it off, so full on Suicide Commando, Wumpscut & God Module-sounding vocals to be present in the imminent future (it's the same unit they used to use for their older vocal-work).

I'm super impressed with my Xeon E5 1650-V3 with the making of this track. 30-35 usage at a buffer rate of 512 samples is pretty damn good in my books for the absolute monstrous amount of plugin's I've ran through this track.

But yaaaaaaaaaa, glad you enjoy the track! ^_^

[Mind of Destiny]

Apart from the reverb it sounds exactly like some demoscene tracks from back in the day, really great stuff.
