SoulRed12's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[ShifT.ed]

Pretty Good

Not bad, but it could use a little more substance. I was hoping for a "part B" at some point, but it just kept going with a few variations on the part A.

So in the future, just try mixing it up a bit more; and give our songs a little more variety. I like what I'm hearing here, just not when it's effectively the same thing over and over for over a minute.

neuroAcid responds:

try listening to my first song
its same first part with a 2nd part as you are saying
will have your comment in mind for future pieces.
thanx

[Not From Around Here]

Actually very nice

Didn't know how I was going to like it when it was loading while reading your comments, but it turned out really well. Maybe could use a little bit more of a melody line, though.

What you did though is very nice and not something I have heard a hundred times before. Good job. ^_^

GibbiusMaximus responds:

Thanks a lot for the feedback!
I'm glad that you found this enjoyable as well as original.
Also thanks for that note about the lack of a melody... you are right. At this point there's nothing more than chord progressions- so this is a very good point. Thanks again, and there will be more to come (it's not finished) :D

Omigosh

Sweet piece. I don't think the drums are necessarily random; the riffs may be a little long but I can tell they are looped. Maybe try I.E. instead of 8 bars looped 16 times, do 4 bars looped 32 times. I don't know how many bars your drums are, I'm just giving an example.

Anyways, the synths are great, as always. Keep at this ^_^ Looking forward to your next upload.

MaximuMMaximuS responds:

There are 12 different patterns for the main square plugin (6 high and 6 low). Each one is 4 bars. I didn't use all 12 though. Tyvm!

[One Night in Neo Kobe City]

Awesome!!

This is great! Very nice work. Definitely one of the best 8-bit pieces I have heard.

Parlux responds:

thanks bro

[When We Go]

yea yea

Good stuff here, lovin the tranquility. Could use some variety, that's my only criticism though.

On a side note, it loops perfectly. I was writing this review and it looped, and I didn't even realize it. Haha.

brainboy1 responds:

thanks

[Mike's Epiphany]

Very very nice

I would love to use this in a game if I wrote them. You've got some skill here, even with such a simple piece. I only wish this had some more variety. What you've got is great. But I don't think it needs to be repeated so many times, it'd be great to hear a part B added to this piece. You've got a more tranquil part with the bubbling sounds after it, and that's good, but I wanted to hear more with the lead instrument (a sitar, was it?)

Awesome work. I especially like your use of sound effects. Overall 9/10, 4/5.

padlock916 responds:

i might just do a part be now that you've brought up the idea. thanks for the review!

[>=MaXiMuM PoWeR=<]

New & cool

This is pretty cool. Might like to hear it with some rapping, it would probably be better than 60% of all the rap out there in the real world right now just because it's something that I haven't heard 18,000 times before.

GJ with this, can't wait to hear more. ^_^

MaximuMMaximuS responds:

Thanks for the review. I appreciate your compliments on the originality! :)No waiting will be necessary; I got plenty of hits just check my page

[Proskyneo WiP w/ update]

Great stuff

I'm really likin this one. Love the bass synth, and a great beat too. Personally, I had no problems with any of the transitions aside from a slight one when the piece gets a little faster at 0:47. The reason being it's a little unexpected.

The progression is very cool, however, and I love the synths you used overall (the bass especially, as I mentioned). Awesome stuff, can't wait to see this when it's out of WiP ^_^

cRAVE01 responds:

^_^ Thank you much. I need to sit down and try and finish this . . . and work out a smoother tranisition for the tempo change : \

But thank you none the less for taking time to review

[All Night party 12]

It's good...

...for a five second piece...

What I mean by that is it's pretty repetitive, and the thirty seconds seem to be made up of the same thing over and over and over again. It's a good loop so far, but seems unfinished...mix it up a bit & add a little more to it, and this would be great.

mariomusicmaker1 responds:

it is a 16 bar loop, looped 2 times, i changed the back synth up a fair bit. thanks for the review.

[Ambient Shadow]

Pretty good

It's just a little predictable and repetitive. With two minutes, the song should go somewhere...I was waiting for a part B that never came. By "part B" I mean a part with a different melody and rhythm, like a chorus in a regular song.

I'd also like to hear the piano a bit more.

Good work otherwise ^_^

bman3737 responds:

Thanks for the response! I had been trying to come up with a faster, more melodic piano for a chorus, but I could not come up with a working one. I might remake this as an actual song, and not a loop.
