ZLEAP's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Marx (Spiderbee)]

I enjoyed this thoroughly. Although, I didn't get full blown happiness from the track. Yes there are plenty of elements to it that would suggest it but things like the synth that runs through it takes my mind to darker places. It's almost like you think you're happy but a constant in your life is always fucking you over. Just when you think you are happy the pain returns, making you shy from happiness all together.

It's that, or I've translated your song to fit my own psychological problems.

Great job!

LuigiofDarkness responds:

Thank you very much. :D

[MM1: The Burning Facility]

This wakes the pyromaniac in me. It speaks to it. It tells it to cleanse by fire. Purify the world.

Anchorwind responds:

Mother Machine cleanses. Mother Machine rebirths. We are all but specks of stardust, fighting the inevitable, failing away against that which we do not resemble or understand.

[DC: Frozen Wastes of a Lonely Heart]

it's entirely too easy to get lost in this one.

Anchorwind responds:

I thought about a response for this. I keep coming back to "While I'm glad you like it, I'm sorry you understand."

[The Hammer of Eden]

I like how you tried to explore different ideas with this track without straying from the structure and general sound of it. I guess my biggest complaint would be the guitar. It sounds a bit forced to me. Other than that it's a unique piece of music.

LuigiofDarkness responds:

Yeah, I had the guitar sort of glitching out there as a contrast to the melodic-ness of the synths, but it become a little more disconcerting than I wanted.

Thanks for the review!

[KKS - Kitty Holocaust]

I only have one complaint with this. Percussion. If you add a mercilessly deep kick drum and snare then you're well on your way to a 5 star rating.

Criticism aside, I enjoy this. Good job.

KKSlider60 responds:

Too much distortion and overcompression, unless you wanna blow your fucking speakers mate. Which is definitely not my case. XD
Thanks,
KKS

[A Clockwork Porn - An AnchorGrinder Mashup]

I love the dense and eerie nature of this. It's almost strange to hear my music used in a different context. Strange but good.

Anchorwind responds:

It's strange for me too. I've never done a mash-up before, let alone volunteer my work for one.

[The Pornucopia AnchorGrinder Mix]

Wow. It's as good as I thought it would be and more. Your drum work on this far surpasses mine. Love it.

Anchorwind responds:

Give yourself some credit here, "My" drum work is actually your drum work. I called this a 'lightweight' remix because these are mostly your samples, just re-worked :)

[CMBT: The Wound]

I'm happy to know that this exists. Happy Halloween to you too, good sir!

Anchorwind responds:

Looking back, this single shot across the bow of the scene here made quite a splash. Introduced me to a few individuals as well. I'm glad I posted this.

[Idle Motion - Loop 3]

Im not sure how to feel about this one. It has a pleasant feel to it but the under tones suggest differently. I can definitely appreciate the production but general feel of the song and the short nature of it throws that off for me. Good job though.

EnigmaticWolf responds:

That is normal and I do very well agree with your assessment.

Thank you for your honest opinion and for listening to my works.
