RATING
A Golden Silky Voice, in a Dark Noir Painted Cityscape. Neon Shadows is something familiar, but it's also something with an intelligent execution. You can easily tell the love that has gone into this show. Top notch production value and voice acting to match. In the dark sea of dark storytelling, Neon Shadows stays true to it's name and lights up the night.
I'm a couple of episodes in. It's always great to see noir in a classic style done well, though this one seems to have a supernatural bent that still meshes nicely. There's some brutal sound design in the fights that suits the hard-boiled tone of the show. Get your detective fix.
Have you ever seen a trumpet cry? Do you remember your first date with a bullet hole? How was your honeymoon in a bodybag? Neon Shadows is no joke but if you need more punch in your punchline, they've gotta haymaker with your name on it. The acting here is the big sell; you're next to Frank Dixon at the bar. You feel those 80 proof sorrows gasping for air as Frank downs another whiskey. Mr. Knowles knows a thing or twelve about noir and breathes life into all shades of shady. It's worth our time to toss a dime at sound design. Noir is a wily beast to tame in the audio drama arena but Neon Shadows nails it. You're the ringmaster at this 3 ring. In the thick of it. Your tweed gets nicotine stains from every dive, drive or dame this shamus gets stuck in. If you like shadows in your earbuds, make 'em neon. It's a dark alley of audio and inuendo that leaves you thirsty for that next dram of Frank Dixon.
It's raining outside, a trumpet plays sad jazz. A man starts giving a sad monologue about events that we'll probably get back to later in the series. everything about this show screams NOIR! and if that's your vibe this show will be a real treat
Fantastic! From a storytelling perspective, one of the things I love about Neon Shadows is that it knows how to perfectly subvert expectations. Just when you thinking it’s going one way, it goes another in a way that feels earned and enjoyable. And that’s a hard thing to do. Not only that, great voice acting, and it’s exactly what you want as far as sound design.
