chaosdrakath's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Chrono Trigger (end theme]

calming

while also energizing!(ill make sense of it later) it truly gives that soothing happiness that you beat the game along with the sadness that its over and the uplift for the hope of a sequel

ChronoNomad responds:

"All life begins with Nu and ends with Nu... This is the truth! This is my belief. At least for now..."

[Prometheus]

hmmm

Like you told me, good reviewers think alike and i nearly slammed my computer shut when i thought you rickrolled me, other than that very nice use of the piano

ChronoNomad responds:

I have no interest in rickrolling anyone, so no worries. Thanks for complimenting me on the original piano progressions! I'm quite proud of those, myself. ^_^

[-Snowbound-]

just... wow

To me it seemed slightly repetitive but you make up for that by perfectly envisioning snow with the choice of notes

ChronoNomad responds:

I'm glad you like it! It may be just a tad repetitive, but I've always been rather partial to this wintry composition. It has a very distinctive bassline and percussive section. Let it snow!

[-The Day The Sorrow Fell-]

harpsicord?

I know i spelled it wrong but did you use a harpsicord for this piece at any point?
I was hearing it in a few sections

ChronoNomad responds:

Oddly enough, no harpsichord was used in this particular piece, though tons of other instruments were. I do use it fairly often, however, so I can see why you would think so, and there is one in particular that could easily be taken for harpsichord (imo), so that's probably what you're hearing.

[-Angels Without Wings-]

most of your work is good but

THIS IS JUST JAW DROPPINGLY RELAXING! The only thing i would have done is switch the bell effect you use as the main instrument with a piano in order to symbolize the how ancient the thought of the angel truly is

ChronoNomad responds:

Heh, yeah...this one's got that super chill kind of vibe going on. I used electric piano for the main melody/harmonies, but it could be changed to Steinway easily enough. I don't really use e.p. very often, but I really like it for this personally. You have made a very interesting point, though. Thanks for reviewing, and I'm glad that you dig the totally relaxing effect of the music!

[Lemmings!!]

very nice

something about this piece that i like is that it hops from one genre of music to another(or at least that what i heard) going for techno to dnb to pop to a very cheerful rock

ChronoNomad responds:

That's a fairly accurate assessment, I'd say. I enjoy a good cross-genre excursion as much as the next person. :) Thanks for the review!

[-Forever Fantasy-]

dendrago

no wonder he's devoted his page to you and this piece... wow

ChronoNomad responds:

I guess that means you like it, too. This is definitely the preferred favorite of Newgrounders everywhere, and not without a good reason. I guess that means that I should make more music like this...

[Dr. Mario (Fever)]

nice bit o funk

while yet another nice piece in someplaces it sounds a little... um... how do i put it

discombobulated, it just sounds a little jumbled

ChronoNomad responds:

Discombobulated is a good word, but I guess I'm not really sure how it applies here. I'm gonna have to say that that's just the way this piece of music is. The original is kind of...odd...so, it stands to reason that a remix will be a bit odd, as well. Probably. ^_^;

[-Dreamscape-]

wow

this is just one of those holy sh$t pieces, simply wonderful
the wide variety of beats in this can be compared to the wide variety of things you see in a dream... hence the name i suppose

ChronoNomad responds:

I'm rather partial to Dreamscape, myself. I really managed to pull off a very ephemeral, dreamlike atmosphere somehow. It's just one of those pieces of music that, once it was finished, I sat back and simply listened a few times, thinking 'Did I really just make this?'

Inspiration is a force far beyond human comprehension. The best thing to do is not question it; just go with the flow and see where it takes you. Forcing the music just never sounds as good for some reason.

[Tetris (A-Type)]

remix of doooooom

freakin epic remix of a timeless piece put on a timeless game... no freakin wonder you call yourself chrono nomad your all over the spectrum

ChronoNomad responds:

What can I say? My own body of work is as eclectic as my personal tastes. :)

Thanks for the encouraging review! Timeless is a great descriptor, especially since I believe that humanity will be playing incarnations of Tetris for decades - maybe even centuries - to come. It's just that good.
