BrainETR's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Creo - Evolution]

That bass is really nice, don’t really have anything to say about the rest of the track since it’s a banger as usual from you, but it’s nice to see some experimentation with genres :)

[Sabotage]

Really not a fan of the drops, the mixing just feels thin and weak compared to the rest of the song, but I still have to give it 5 stars because of the insanely good vocals and melodies

[Go On Without Me]

I got chills several times while listening to this, I love some of these chords so much

sleepFacingWest responds:

Thank you! A lot of that has to do with moving things early or late. I had a teacher once that said suspensions and resolutions are underutilized in contemporary music and I couldn't agree more. They create such nice tension.
I remember playing in a baroque ensemble at one point and the gentleman leading the session wanted all the instrumentalists to really pay attention to the underlying harmonies that were being created, so he had us just sustain notes of the chords and had each person change to the next note in their score, but one at a time "Sopranos, next note...now altos, next note....now tenors, next note...." It was just an exercise, but I remember thinking it would make such a cool compositional technique to create more movement out of relatively simple bread and butter chords.
Brian Eno also did this with his arrangements of Pachabel's Canon. It's super interesting how much a piece of music changes when you just move things note by note instead of blocks!

[TheFatRat & NEFFEX - Back One Day (Outro Song)]

I’ve always felt like the original Xenogenesis was missing something, and now I know what that something was :)

[I Guess What I'm Trying to Say]

Awesome :)

[Patron Saint of Heists]

I dunno how you’re able to so accurately depict the atmosphere and theme you’re going for every time but it’s very impressive

[30 cents]

Really interesting :)

[Punyaso & ColBreakz - Fake Vibes]

Awesome, I love the sound design on the melodic lead and the piano at the beginning and middle is really nice too :)

[Solo]

These vocals are really nice, I’d love to see a version of it with the same production quality as your other tracks but this is pretty fire nonetheless :)

[No Options]

woah this is sick ngl

btw I used this song in my new geometry dash level :)
