DaveGuy's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[SN |Lost, But on Her Way| SN]

you have talent

how did you get all of those effects in? you must have been making music for a while I can tell. The best I can do is take presets and mix them. and automations. That's about it for me right now! in my 6 (almost 7) months of making music I still can't do shit!!

SessileNomad responds:

im only one year into music making

some of these effects i do in the piano roll, one of them is a flanger in the master channel that has an automation on it, some of them are just sweep ups, one is a screaming voice, idk i just do it xD

[DV-Kindred Spirits]

thx for putting into ambient genre

Lol why did you resubmit? zerobombers? ah I understand.

Good title for this. Perfect actually. I do see too forest spirits floating in the middle of a forest in the game "Jak 2" for playstation 2. and they have green mist glowing around the outline of their spirits.

Very unique from alot of ambient songs I have heard. And it's your "FIRST" I repeat "FIRST" attempt? You are going somewhere with this ambient genre thing. You should continue making ambient music. You have potential.

DenVessidence responds:

ya the re submit was from a minor detail that i had to change, even though its somethin a listener wont even notice. me as thw writer noticed it everytime and had to fix it. and this is the propper place, i had to put it back here.

i sure will look into more ambiant stuff, its fun to make, but hard, i struggled a lot on this compared to making dance stuff. you cant get away with just a good beat and some crazy synths here lol, you gotta have every little detail work because every little detail is key to the feeling of the song.
and to write ambient, you need feeling.

glad you liked it.

[phunky fresh WIP]

the choppiness gets you moving...

I love the choppiness. I just gets you bumping up and down in your seat.
Very original and unique also. I have never seen a FUNK/HOUSE song.
You did a very good job of combining the two I must say.

Kinda repetitive though but hey, I understand that it's only a WIP and you're still working on it. It's a pity to have only a WIP version of your song on top weekly 5 because I bet you're just thinking:

("aw man I didn't even get to finish it! now the score is going to be only 3.69/5 !!) which it is for somereason. Oh well, I'm guessing that you got zerobombed by a blam group, because on wednesday morning I was like: ("why is the score so low").

This deserves 5/5 10/10 even for a WIP. Keep it up bro!

finish it soon haha!

Kalapsia responds:

hahah will do, thanks for the kind words

[Axel F ReMiXeD]

found it kinda annoying

with the choppiness and stalling the you intentionally put it in there, it all seemed like you had a glitch in exporting as an mp3. On the other hand, I do like that flanged effect you put in there.
So please, get rid of that choppiness.

=)

durst057 responds:

nah, it sounds good, i dont have my prodject saved, but it WAS intentional. It would take too long to redo it. But thanx

[SN | Once Again | SN]

o.m.g.

I fucking hate you

SessileNomad responds:

fuck off

thanks for the ten

[[RM] - Creepy Night WIP]

you gotta finish ur songs

lol Alot of your songs are WIPs and
double-you-eye-pees!
It's a great start to misc music, but I think that you are more of an EnTranceD person for trance music. You might be good at techno too!

But EnTranceD MisC music? Ahha now that's a new one! Very Calming indeed!

Randomizor responds:

Thanks. xD

[Mega death master mix 3000 P1]

this is not trance

it is techno and it is exactly half of the speed it's supposed to be. Double it.
Techno Isn't supposed to be this slow dude. 60-65 bpm? comeon!

Thats the only problem, the speed. I like the melody though. The melody is nice

=)

23i responds:

Allright. Well, I'm thinking drum 'n bass first before techno, because of the bpm. I really wanted to put this in trance too, maybe it is wrongly placed.

Thanks for the review.

[[RM] - Calmly Night]

I'm zerobombing you

JUST KIDDING JUST KIDDING JUST KIDDING JUST KIDDING JUST KIDDING
HAHAHA I totally scared you there buddy!

sorry about last review on your last resubmission, this deserves 5/5 10/10

I don't know what came upon me -_-

But I am still on that fact about the kick coming in afew seconds earlier into the song.

Randomizor responds:

Lol, thanks xD

[Walk on the Ceiling]

your first TECHNO song, ahhaaa just like me!

It badly need drums. and with all of those bass synths going in there it sounds kinda fuzzy and farty. Put some higher pitch melodies in there or just replace some bass melodies with high pitched ones. Try searching "saw" in the browser in fl studio and just keep pressing F2 until you get something you like (F2 shuffles through and finds other sounds with that name or phrase inside of it)

But I must admit, this is better than your first song. You're getting better I can tell!

=)

SuperKirbyMaster responds:

yay thanks for the advice, and keep up your good work =)

[Mini Desert Song]

Hey your first song!

I know you used that preset pad arp called texture haha! I know alot of preset synths. Just try to put a melody in there, because right now It would be REALLY good in a scary flash animation where the robot warriors are w8ing for the zombies to approach and appear out of the floating mist upon us haha.
Yno, my first song isn't even on NG. In fact I don't even know where the original is anymore. It's only 54 seconds long and sucks.

ON the bright side to this, It DOES have that dark and creepy desert effect to it.
Keep it up, youre learning, I used all presets in my first song too.
5/5
6/10 for now buddy. I can promise you that you will get better at this.

SuperKirbyMaster responds:

lol @ the robot warriors part. Thanks for the review, I'll follow the advice.
