MeisterMach5's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Flowering Night]

I have only one gripe with this, but it's probably just my tastes alone. To me, the bass seems just a wee bit too pervasive with how booming it is.

Other than that, well done ^_^ I can't believe I haven't touched this song yet

[Emerald Hill Zone HD]

Pretty much exactly what I figured Emerald Hill sounded like in HD lol

[Big Blue (8Bit)]

Not much to really say about this; it's Big Blue done really well in 8-Bit. What CAN you say about something as glorious and self explanatory as this?

[The Gensokyo The Gods Loved Chiptune]

You know, I never actually appreciated this song that much. After hearing this mix, I see just how much potential this song could have in any way it's shaped. I love the way the song "whined" at places like 2:30. Considering the fact that not all songs work out well in chiptune, this was fantastically done.

[Native Faith - Suwako's Theme]

People claim that Suwako has the worst Extra Stage Theme.

I think you've proved them pretty damn wrong.

[Romantic Fall]

*Tears fall from eyes*
ZUN himself would be proud...
I salute you!

[Serial Killer's Emotions]

Compared to the original, this version seems more... Serial Killery? XD
But yeah, it seems just more sad than the original. Which I love. You've pretty much captured the essence of what any Touhou song is about, fan made or not. It's the emotions that describe who these characters are and what they're capable of. For that, you have my respect, sir. Finely done. You've written a story that I would like to hear more of.

Aisnon-A responds:

Pardon the late response.

I thank you for taking the time to write a comment, as I most certainly appreciate your thoughts. To be frank, I did not expect:

"It's the emotions that describe who these characters are and what they're capable of... finely done. "

I don't believe myself to have any sort of capacity for emotion. I have feelings, that is to me, the basic sensations which arrive from some stimulus, but nothing I could claim as indicators for concepts such as joy, anger, and, in this case, sadness. When I make music, intuition and logic are my ways of knowing. To hear, then, that I could convey emotions without having any (recognized) personal acquaintance with it is a curious idea, to say the least.

As for the story, I do plan to make my own music/illustration project for my own intellectual purposes. I'll certainly look at this piece again to unravel the creative processes that I was not aware of during this arrangement's creation, since I also would like to know my story.

Again, you have my gratitude. I am unable to express the extent to which this comment has mentally excited me.

Peace.

[Chaoz Fantasy (8-Bit)]

Well, I'm glad ParagonX9 left on such a high note (literally?), because this and Red 13 are two of my most favorite songs X9 has done.

[F-Zero: Big Blue]

I love how it sounds like a guitar battle, with the panning of the guitars and all.

[SSJ3 - Sis Puella Magica]

So many things are going through my mind right now due to this song. How do I explain this song? Well first off, it's really beautiful. The instrumentation, the flow, the speed; everything is practically perfect. The violin is absolutely orgasmic (for a violin player to listen to at least). The piano complemented it really well and it blended into a flurry of emotions. It's slightly melancholic here and joyful there. In a sense its a perfect summary of Madoka Magica. Thanks for posting this, man. I bet your girl was just as pleased as I am, if not more.

Shiverwar responds:

Heh... I posted this more for my convenience, but I never expected that it'd be this well-received! I worked especially hard on it, since it was for our anniversary and all... I wanted it to be really special, so I pulled out all the stops on it. Words cannot describe how happy this review makes me. Truly, I'm out of ways to explain it. ^^ Thank you, truly.
