UltimaTricksta's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Verse On Fire]

Sounds cool~

I really do like the composition of this pieces. My only complaint is the quality of the guitars you used, they didn't sound very good. But the synths sounded great~ And it does sound very old-school, good work.

NeXsard responds:

thank you bro. the fact is that i dont have the tools to make a decent guitar record, so i used some guitar samples of snes games, but i apreciate that you have enjoyed my work

[Scars From Tomorrow]

This sounded great!

I really liked the creativity you had on this? I think it needs a bit more improvement on the mixing, particularly the levels on the drums, and also make use of panning so the sound is spaced out. It also, might sound a bit better if the tempo was around 10BPM faster, though that's just personal preference. I really like this, great job! ;D

[Bioshock: Splicer Fun!]

Haha xD

This was quite fun to listen to xD

[Dungeon Battle]

Nice

Nice composition here. I can definitely see this in an RPG game. I like the way you use the brass instrument.

[Ciara Reckage]

Interesting...

I see you are improving. This one isn't as repetitve as Tactics 12. This one uses a range on different beats and ideas, which is nice.

I'm not a fan of the synth you used at the beginning but I do love that synth you used at 1:15. It gives it more depth and it doesn't feel empty.

I'll agree with on the matter of how it ended, it doesn't really loop well. It sounds abrupt. But other than that, great job! ^^

(P.S. This is McTricky from the VAA, if you hadn't already guessed ^^;; )

[Boss Battle! (Intero Remix)]

YES,

YES. This is some kick-ass stuff, rtnario. This sounds like something from Motoi Sakuraba, espcially the way you implented the drums at 0:42, which is my favourite part.

Great work with these remix ;D

rtnario responds:

UltimaTricksta, haven't seen you around lately ^^

Well, if you're talking about the Motoi Sakuraba-sounding melodies, thank Intero for creating the original and still awesome 8-Bit Bossbattle. But the drums, well, you're the second person who has directly told me that he liked the drums very much; the first being Intero himself. I'm not a drummer though, so I really wonder about that XD

Thanks for the review; glad you liked it! And I've still got plenty more remixes to come. =)

[Trump Card Alteisen (Super Robot Taisen: Original Generation Remix)]

Pretty epic! ;D

I haven't played Super Robot Taisen before, and considering this is a remix, I'll somewhat treat like an original composition.

I'd like to say that this sounds like something from Riviera: The Promised Land. It definately sounds epic ;D What VSTs do you use? Especially to create that kick-ass electric guitar sample?

rtnario responds:

Wow, I know Riviera: The Promised Land. So comparing it to that? I'd say thanks for the compliments XD

Also, VSTs I use will be in PM talk since I don't exactly want to reveal just what I use, as you may read as a review in Spark Mandrill - Short Circuit. =)
