ET16's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[ID #2 (WIP)]

Hello! and lets get started!

Your volume levels are too high. I suggest experimenting with your sound levels. The drum patterns are nice but I agree with the first comment the song is really bland when it comes to melodic progression and that synth sound can get tiring what I would do is try adding different instruments, Like Piano or Pads etc. The Drop could use work(however I do like the sound around 01:08).

Final thoughts?

When you do work on your drop try to give it some variety. I recommend studying a couple of dubstep songs. Don't be afraid to add more instruments to your song.( as long as they compliment each other) Also when in doubt YouTube that Sh*t.

Not trying to make excuses, but FL Studio volume levels versus rendered volume levels seem to be very different. Been trying to fix that.

I spent so much time working on the main bass and instead people like the 1:08 sound. I altered a preset and the LFO pattern lol.

Yeah, I guess you're right about the adding more instruments on the drop. I kinda suck at composition ://///////

Thanks for the detailed review.

[Rise & Fall]

Alright here we go!

First off wonderful beat I really enjoy what it builds into in the middle, but then it falls off. Like there could've been more added to it(That's just me) before it went back to the beginning tune.(even though its a loop)

Second, I think it wouldn't hurt to shave off the 10 seconds when it loops back, that way the beginning tune doesn't seem long and dragged out. (In short loop it at the 01:30 mark.)

Final thoughts?

I think this is good for your first time. Its very enjoyable makes me feel like I'm cruising down a futuristic city. I know its just a loop but I feel like you can build more onto this.(Once again that's just me) Also just cut that last 10 seconds and this can be a solid loop. :)

Thank you!

[Boss Fight 1 -RR-]

your hi-hat is a little loud, once again I suggest adding a changeup, and honestly it doesn't really sound like a boss fight (but then again what is a boss fight music supposed to sound like)
try experimenting with different melodies.

RonRandom responds:

Thanks! I'll try to improve in the future.

[Graveyard Loop -RR-]

Spooky, but kind of repetitive and could get tiresome quickly. I do advise maybe adding a changeup in the middle of your song so it doesn't tire out the listeners ears. Maybe try adding a different melody for your organ.

RonRandom responds:

Damn, I'll try to take on your advice and try to add a different melody in future loops.

[Reborn]

Nice guitar work!

Morteth9 responds:

Thanks!

[Arped]

This is very well done goodjob!

Septyrikon responds:

Thanks a bunch!

[Sumner Vibes]

Might be me but most of the song seems to be peaking, might wanna check your levels. Has potential to be a really good track also I personally didn't like the vocals too much

Devy-Chan responds:

Yeah, I'm not really good at much stuff. But thank you! Sorry about the vocals.

[Faith and Heaven]

How do you have such a low fan count you need MORE!!!! You stuff is amazing. this honestly reminds me of ghost in the shell or the Deus Ex Human Revolution Games. Great work.

zybor responds:

thanks bro :3

[Skeleton March]

This is pretty amazing! you're pretty well talented. I really liked how the song slowed down around the 1:50 mark and then slowly started picking back up at a faster pace. All your instrument choices are perfect! how long did it take you to work on this? I'm honestly surprised that no one has commented on this yet.

cameronmusic responds:

Thanks very much, I'm glad you liked it. It took about 2-3 days all told to write and mix, 2 days to write and then 1 day to mix and tweak.
