Arguswastaken's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

I don't think you should beat yourself up about your music sucking. Everyone obviously starts out inexperienced and you can't become good without first being at the noob stage, so just embrace the learning process. You'll get way better before you know it.

The reason there's clashing is that the instruments are playing in different keys. Technically that makes it a polytonal song. Some songs are written like this on purpose to evoke certain emotions (i.e. Charles Ives - The Unanswered Question), but I think the best thing to do when you're a beginner is to just stick to one key for a whole song. Music theory can be daunting but it's worth looking into at least a bit if you start running into issues like this. I recommend learning about writing in a key, but just know that it's not a rule you have to stick to always. The "rules" in music are more like guidelines anyway, and they can be broken when you are more knowledgeable and comfortable with the craft.

[Hide n Seek Ranch]

This song convinced me to become a rancher in among us

[Delta Time]

I feel the bad-mixing tag

[Cold Hope]

The atmosphere is unnerving, yet calming. This is one of the most unique and interesting songs I've heard. Superb composition overall.

[Executing Programs]

This is very cool! I don't generally listen to chiptune songs often, but I think this one is really good

[Bye Now!]

I really like this arrangement!

[Victory in the West (Henry Stickmin Remix)]

Ennio Morricone would be proud

[The Haunted Mansion]

Banger

PuffballsUnited responds:

Thankz

[Playing with Knives]

Very catchy!

[Mission Briefing]

This is pretty much exactly what I'd imagine if I thought about what a song for a mission briefing could sound like. It'll be perfect for an intro to Completing the Mission, no doubt.
