[Fresh (Boyfriend Remix) - Friday Night Funkin' OST]

The best version of Fresh.

[Level X4 [Dream Trance]]

Good stuff!

[morfeel]

It's something you could hear in Ace Attorney

trevor8 responds:

haha, now that you mention it, i can definitely hear a similar sound palette

[AIM - Twin Cities Under Blue Sky]

The track is very good, but imo a bit too deep and aggressive for the piece of art you chose. I'd have associated a more uplifting and melodic piece, just a personal point however.

CryNN responds:

Hahaha. This is the mildest i could work with :D thanks for your opinion!

[Abyss Walk]

Both mesmerizing and uplifting. Not bad!

Cubenssi responds:

Thanks

[YouVeryGood -TranceMix- {MK64}]

Why is this so underrated?

[M.I.L.F - Friday Night Funkin' OST]

Neat! Would look great in both JSAB and GD.

[Iridium (Remastered) in F]

Better quality than the original one, especially on the drops, but the volume could be a little bit higher. Overall, pretty good!

[everyday gratitude]

Reminds me of the PS1 variant of Wharf, a piece I hold very dearly. Very good emotional track!

Newgrounds VGM Challenge - Virtual Bond: Review

As the linked thread says, this submission is a giant mash of 3 tracks. I'll analyze them separately, to then make a summary consideration. I like the idea that each sub-track has a lore of its own, pretty clever.
Now, let's get started.

1. Reunion
While not being a fan of the panned piano at the beginning, I found the melody uplifting but not too cheesy: happiness and suspense at the same time make a nice contrast when pictured together properly. I particularly enjoyed the depth you gave to the strings, very smooth and clean. Overall, solid introduction.

2. Stand
Here we go into a Touhou-Undertalish like type of music. The instrumentation is very diversified, and gives very nice action vibes, not too intense as well, which is a good sign; paying attention to balance is always an effective course of action. Those clock ticks at 5:25 too, I like them a lot, they help shaping the atmosphere.

3. Unthinkable
First, mad respect for the brilliant use of Kirby 64 Final Boss' soundfont: this is my favourite part of the track, its climax you could say. I like the fact that is also divided into two sections, to give maybe that segment where a reflection about the feelings of the two protagonists is appropriate.

This submission is hella long, yet you managed to make it interesting, and that's already a big achievement to begin with. I read about your thoughts on the ending: I think your thought is well considered, yet a tiny bit of ending/staff roll would have been the cherry on top. Maybe for another track? Who knows? ;)
You proved yourself to not only follow my prompt properly, but also to portray it from your own point of view; I could even learn new perspectives from this track as well! Awesome job.

Thanks for participating!
