DaveGuy's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[_/Fantasy\_]

Pretty good

You might be having writers block. I can tell because the song is kinda short and you ran out of ideas for the melody of the second of the song. Some transitional errors too after the buildups but all in all it sounds very Fantasy-like to me.
But the best this is that you have officially just developed your own trademark style of trance/dance. I can now tell when something was made by you.
5/5
9/10 for now.

ShootingStar responds:

Yay :) But yeah, I definitely had a block :(
Thanks for the review!

[_/Deep Dark\_]

wow

for a second I thought you submitted this today and I was thinking "Shootingstar made this?" Well, I was alot worse than this back in april 2009 when I first set my eyes on fl studio. Good job for back then though.

[Dream Runner Revampd-lidlurch-]

garage band

the melodies & everything are good, it's just that garage band sucks. You seem very limited by the program, . Sounds very dreamy indeed though. Quite calming too. I don't understand why it has a 2.85. Oh well, the person with the 2 vote must have had an amazing voting power.
All in all, the song was great!
good job!

lidlurch responds:

Thanks! Yeah, idk what jerk gave me a two on this, but whatever...I'm pretty against voting on my own songs :P Yeah, well, it's all that i've got *shrugs*, it ain't too bad :) Besides, this song was extremely simple, considering that i made it so long ago. Maybe i'm just too lazy to learn how to use FL studio :P

[SubtleForces - What I Found]

it's hard to explain - 5/5 x 9/10

Yno that main melody which I think you used german trumpet? I notice that you only used 8th notes that played again. Well try to make it sound like......what's your email? I can send you an .flp to describe what I mean. Nice way to make it sound dancy like though! But try to make some original stuff once in a while, I've seen alotta remixes lately lol.
Other than that, everything is fine. I hope I didn't give too much con-crit -_-

SubtleForces responds:

Ye, the melody wasnt ment to be anything special, I just rustled this up casue I hadn't uploaded anything in AGES.

I got some nice up-beat song to upload...I think you will like them :L

[-=Drop Zone=-]

hyper

Very hyper hardcore dance song! Nice melodies and drumchoice.
Although I personally can't physically dance to most hardcore dance song, this one sort of makes me want to get up and dance.

good work!

[Chimy727 -Go!]

really good!

I just feel that the drum placement needs work.
For example, here are afew placements in this song:

Kick only
Kick & hat
Kick & clap.
I say that they should it should be Kick, clap and hat going.
It sounds sort of dry without out it.
Try to have this in not all parts of the song but put this placement structure in places that you feel needs it.
Nice slow ending though! and the melodies were great.
overall score 9/10 for now.

Chimy727 responds:

yeah i do that alot! i suppose i should keep em together!
:D

thanks for the review once again!

[_/Feeling\_ (vocals)]

Good lyrics.

They just progress at a too slow rate though. The music was really good but try to use some different melodies every now and then but even so but it wasn't even that repetitive because it was a really good melody. And when you say together and forever when you add a delay echo effect, they start to overlap eachother and sound sort of morphed.
But that's about the only things wrong. Everything else deserves a 10.

drums = 10/10
music = 10/10
vocals = 9/10
lyrics = 10/10
repetition 9.5/10

Overall score = 10/10.
Good job.
If you fixed those things out, this song could become a big hit in your coming future.

ShootingStar responds:

Yeah haha I didn't really do much for the song :P I'm probably not going to fix any of the stuff.. just keep it in mind for the next song. I'm lazy :D
Thanks for the review!!

[Once More - F-777]

Wow

Favorited and downloaded right away. This is the best out of all your songs so far. Trust me, you will probably be the next tiesto in time.
Also, if anyone knows, can they pm me on how to make that airy sound in the beginning. I have trouble with it in parametric EQ.

[_/I wish you were here\_[edit]]

cool!

The vocals are quite good actually for a first try. I can definitely see you getting famous. But you sort of added sidechaining or whatever to the song which gets kind of annoying after a while. But this still deserves a 10/10.
good job!

ShootingStar responds:

Yay :P haha thanks a bunch for the review!!

[I am Not Your Broom!]

haha

this is funny and wacky sounding. The only things other than sadly horrible music that makes me laugh are voice recordings. great job!
