Kor-Rune's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Roadhouse]

omg you are a time beast. I love how it gets super melodic around :35 and then :46 makes me cream so good. Are those tiny high pitched sounds guitars? they're the icing on the cake with this whole part and omg you shred so good.

always make music x)

[Hope]

This is seriously amazing as always, everything is professional and tight, and the melodic content is really moving. You're an inspiration dude! Please make music forever.

I'm sorry to hear about your loss, but I'm always happy to see those emotions manifested through music. keep it up dude

PirateCrab responds:

You're professional and tight <3

Don't worry about it. It certainly made this track tough to make in such a short time frame (Literally got the idea 2 days before it had to be submitted ha) and there's so much I'd love to change, but I think I'll let the emotions be.

Thanks man :)

[Uncertain Ethnic Feel]

Wow, this is gorgeous. I love the guitar and duduk, the drums are subtle but make it so huge and anticipating. I couldn't tell it was looping until I got so moved by the chord progression I had to check what was so beautiful in my ears on the other tab :') I love this

sorohanro responds:

Thanks. Was an idea that I didn't really want to develop further, I try to take my music to a different direction now :)

[NGADM Round 1]

Terrific composition :) Could use some humanizing on the drums but I love your voicing and piano phrasing. more forever

Acid-Paradox responds:

Thanks.

I agree on the drums, there are some things i wish I could polish or change but since I made this on the last 2 days before deadline, I didn't have any time to do any more work.

Cheers!

[Gather The Clans]

This is HUGE, your chords are terrific. :) I love your lush soundsets and dynamics. The piano riff at the end is superb, I gotta say 5/5 GORGEOUS

LunyAlex responds:

Thanks a lot man! Means a lot!

[Tree of Life]

Wow this is pretty. I luuurv your harp sounds and guh you sing so beautifully everytime. timbre pitch and voice UGH <3 The staccato that comes in a little before the 2 minute mark is yes

This is so huge and calming I wanna sit in a cabin in a forest to this

etherealwinds responds:

I was just showing your piece to Merry! xD You're too kind to me. The part before the two minute part was my favourite part to compose. Take me to the forest with you! Thank you :}

[Argentinean Memories]

Everything is so expressive, the accordion melody outlines the chords so perfectly. The transition into No.2 is genius, the flow is flawless and the tango is tangy YES. The entirely different modern vibe happens at No. 3 totally surprised me, and made me dance. Amazing execution everywhere 10/10 A++ 5/5 :) You two are an awesome team :)

SoundChris responds:

Aww thanks so much. I am really glad you liked it - especially the transition between part 1 and too. Originally we wanted to create 3 independent scenes but then noticed yesterday, that the piece has to be coherent - hm. Ok :D We reacted asap to make one long piece out of it. The cut between the first and the second part was done by intent because we wanted to point out that here is going to be a bigger change in style - old vintage music a la astor piazzolla and modern dance music like gotan project. Reading your kind words really made me happy!

All the Best!

[Swan Lullaby]

Puts me at a peace. <: Like everyone said below, transitions could really tie this beautifully, except, I actually love the 2:39 transition, it's a droney glassy trip everytime :0. but what do I know about transitions LOL. You have a beautiful mind to me. :) always make music

Chemiqals responds:

Thank you. It means a lot to hear something like that! ♥♥♥

[Ai No Inori]

you little bitch this is amazing. i love all the textures god FUCK <3

etherealwinds responds:

This song is so old haha ;_; sometimes it's good to not sing in my own music. I love you Nathan!! <3

[Cracked Pavement]

Feelin them blues licks SO hard >:) I love how it melts into a sweet ass piano blues part, then a nice piano+acoustic easy listening thing. Killer track >:) get a cool sounding drum machine and humanize that shizz!! KEEP IT UP <3

ChronoNomad responds:

I love it when you talk to me like that, Kor-Rune! Mmm! Seriously, that is the best kind of review. What made it difficult this year is my severe lack of time and overabundance of life stuff going on, but I'm really glad that I can still participate. Once again, really great to know that someone appreciates it when I do something outside the norm...especially if that someone is you! :D
