shadow6nothing9's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sourceload]

Cool

Some of the melody reminds me of that Paragonx9 song and thats the only thing thats similar to it. It held my interest for the first minute and it got me curious on what was going to happen next. Drums felt kinda bland and the overall could use a few more effects in it. Other then that, awesome.

I don't like trance too, and you almost converted me. 5/5

Phoxxy232 responds:

well then ill call that a conversion of 5 1/2 lol and yeah i know i had Paragonx9's song in my head while making the song and i was trying my best not to mirror the song too bad, and you have no idea how long i spent looking for a decent drum sample but my god i couldnt find anything i liked so i settled for what i had

[Please, Think of The Kittens]

Not bad

Wierd theme song going on here. The intro felt like it went on a little too long, voices kinda sounded awkward in da beginning but its hard finding good voicer peeplers. Wish the quality was better and there was some better variation in the electrics, or catchiness.

Other then that the song souds cool, and I like some of the skat style singing, reminds me of Jon Davis a little bit. I think you should make a video out of this, or flash :P The humor your were intending will be easier to get.

Don't mind the people who listen to mostly techno, instead of people who actually play there instruments. Keep making music

MarkArandjus responds:

"Other then that the song souds cool" that's all that matters now isn't it :D
We don't care about overproducing and polishing our sound man, take a look at albums like How Could Hell Be Any Worse or Kill 'Em All, the quality is shitty, but they're great albums.

Thanks for the boost, people on Newgrounds or a though crowd, I suspect it's because most of the music on the audio portal is electronic. We need more crazy underground orientation > U < Worst of all there are a few people who will never be happy, they'll always be a smartass and say this and that could be better, they expect music that will please everybody, but we don't want to please everybody, not even a lot of people, just a few people =)

And we'll keep making music, we're intentionally posting the shitty songs first, just to see how much people will like them before and after the better ones. People are silly, this amuses us ^^

[Kaiz- Oxidus Fire]

Oxidus Water

Theres another title for a calmer track :P
You built it up very nicely. I just wish there was a little more punch at 0:33 If you know what I mean. I think your very close to something and it needs a few more tweaks and polishing here and there,

Worth a download/Gonna check out your other stuff

nightsurfermusic responds:

Thanks for the review! I do need a little more variation, maybe an extra synth the stands out a bit more. Thanks for the feedback and i'll be sure to change some things around :D

[This Was Made By My Sister]

Pretty Cool

Would like to hear just the violins then the kicks as an intro. Its a too short/anddoesn't loop good and the other instruments sounds kinda generic. I would like to hear some harmony strings with the violins (Which is the only thing that caught my ear.) Did she play the violin, what did you use for it?

OvalsinOuterSpace responds:

Its not suposed to loop
And i made the song on garageband so no playo violino
thanks for the sugesstions i might use them inn another song!

[New Years Party]

NewYears is over,

So get over it. :P

I look for three things when I listen to a song, its catchiness and the emotions it brings out to the listener... =| Especially in the first minute, it never came until much later.

It sounded very generic, but other than that it was very nicely mixed. All you need is a catchy chorus and a good singer.

I suggest getting ready for the next new year, you have 12 months to prepare. Keep making more and you'll be getting better

syphonmax responds:

lol I will, and I'm pretty sure I did get over the new year XD

And thanks ^_^

[Don't Cry (Beta 1.1)]

Hmm

If this is a dance song then work the kick beat early or fade it in early to dance to. The mastering was alright. When you test it. Try it on full volume-then mid, then the same with speakers. So you can tell if its too loud or quiet.

Other then that, it just, doesn't feel really catchy yet. Give it more time to grow and play around with it and it will sound better.

Skyflyer responds:

I make it better, it's an Beta!

[\Nice Guys Finish Last/]

Awesome

I like the piano the most in this, the instrument at 05 gives it a funky sound to it and I don't think it really fits with the sad/dark mood, maybe in that happier part. The drums sounds like they were just slapped on and they don't really add to the song, I would like to hear some string accompaniment instead. Great track 4/5

Adamaja456 responds:

thanks for the feedback! I'll be sure to look into changing different aspects of piano pieces i make in the future.

[Ambient tryout]

Hmm

Reminded me of some 80s horror flick, or... an exorcist track.
You should always be careful when using those kind of bells. it can hurt the ears. Maybe use the bells on a lower octave and not as much. Or replace it with a piano.
Play around with the strings more and use different sounds. Mix it around a but, I found it a little repetitive, especially in the first minute. This can sound much better if you take your time and most of all have fun with it.

combatplayer responds:

i know. i know. i know...! but as i say in my text its far from finished and my computer simply cant handel it... if i try to changing it my computer almost freses up... i cant do anything more as it is.. i only made the different parts that was the only thing i was capabel of hearing the setup and a little of the effectes was made as i think it shuld be cus u couldent hear it..

btw its ment to be a little horror movie like cus im stil trying to do as many different kinds of music as i can overcome. so ofcurse some will be good and others will be partly failuers..

but i like the melodi in this track and i wanted to play around with the repedetive part and i liked the result therfor did i upload it cus maby others could see that to... i had to uplode it as a unfinished project cus of the reason i mentioned up there...

and i like the bell synth.. ill maybe lower the volume a bit and make the sound a little less sharp so its not damaging anyone BUT i wont make it a piano.. up till now i almost use a piano in all my tracks and this was also a try to not doing that.
and the bell matches the rest pretty well (if u ask me that is)..

and i only make music for the fun so u dont have to worrie abaut that XD

sorry for the insane long response i ended up doing o_O
and thanks for the review.. i like reviews eaven if its bad scores aslong they have a desent reason to give the low amaunt of points.. and u do...
thanks again...

[[DJZ] In The Shadows]

And then?

Use something else for the bells, had to turn down the volume cause it kinda hurt my ears. When the song ended I was like... "So what?" If your making hip hop beats study and listen to the beats in songs. This track is just missing something.

DJ-Zoysa responds:

well as i said it was just 4 lols and i was really bored and wanted t see how i'd go at a hip hop beat. i don't make them seriously and it's not my genre at all so im a hip hop newbie but yeh thanks for the review anyway
