DaveGuy's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[SubtleForces - The Sound]

woot!

awesome song! I can definitely see this in a club or a rave somewhere. If you put some of your songs on much music, chances are, most likely most of them will be on top20 on 20.

SubtleForces responds:

Thanks again for ur kind review and score :D

I hope it does, but ur song deserves it too :P

[SubtleForces - Rushing Calm]

WOOT!

this song is awesome. I totally hope nobody zerobombs this. that would suck. YOu deserve to be on top weekly with this type of stuff. Keep it up! Also, If you use FL Studio, how do you add a gating effect to a regular pad synth like synth string - seriphim for example? Explain it to me in the best way you can if you have time.

Btw, you just got yourself a

SubtleForces responds:

Mate u are totally too kind

For the gate, I should ask are u using FL Studio 7 or 8. If it is 8, it is SOOOOOOOOO easy. If not, well em, I will think ;)

Get ur instrument linked up too an effects channel, then select Soundgoodiser. Muck around and u will find some setting u like. For a strings, mebbe use fruity love filter, and under presets find the "Gate" presets and muck about till u get something u want ;)

Once again thanks for ur kind review ;)

[Forget About Me]

Cool

i loved that synth you used. Nice melody you have going there too. All it needs now is an extra background sound haha. 9/10 bro. Keep it up!

Why don't you check out some of my techno/trance songs?

Fox-Donut responds:

Thanks a lot DaveGuy, i'll be sure to check out your stuff too.

[In Da Trance]

WOW

alot better than MY first audio (which isn't on NG). This is actually really good. You are really going somewhere with your music making career. Quite a relaxing song actually. But It fit's mainly in the trance genre. Seeing it's kinda trancy relaxing techno and also because of the title you have haha. KUTGW man. Continue your music making career, get famous.

I make techno too! do you mind checking that out?

NickShadius responds:

For a nice review like that, why not?

Thanks for the review. It kinda reminds me of Enya.

[Hide and Seek {Techno Mix}]

oh my god

You definitely accomplished something with this song. And this "COULD" also possibly go into the pop genre and be on the top 20 on 20 XM radio but it is better in the techno genre. But yeah, YOU just got yourself a:

fishfood2021 responds:

That's really nice of you to say! :D I'd love to hear this remix on XM Radio lol.

[I have a potion]

N.I. (Needs Improvement)

All you did was just take 2 video game presets and 2 drum presets that need to play out more throughout the song. To tell you the truth, this song's melody and drums sounded SOOO random. Put some background sounds in there and some other stuff too. fix up the melody please and master this.

Sorry about that overly long criticism, It's just that everytime I'm giving a song a low score, There had BETTER be criticism in my review. =)

Calamaistr responds:

Im sorry mate but i dont think you have any musical hearing if you think this is random. Granted its not a conventional pattern thats for sure. And who cares if a sound is a original, its not about the sound its about the composition afterall, why should i tamper with sounds if i already found what i needed being a retro 16bit analog.. wich is together with piano works the only thing i work with.

Oh, and welcome to the world of hybrid dnb retro spectrum.

[Don't Eat The Strudel]

guess what...

I just ate your strudel. Screw you, go ahead and cry. Buy another one from Tim Hortons for 3 bucks. I'll eat that one too and make you sob. I'll eat your dog too because it ate one of your other strudels. I just ate 3 of your strudels. How does that make you feel?

hahahaha lol. 10 points because of humour only. hhahahaha (if that was your intended purpose)

Klimdeeni responds:

purpose success!

[Lillium Techno Mix]

Needs work

You have an okay melody in there (just not catchy enough) and a good drumbeat too, It just needs to either equalize the bass synth and improve the quality and fix up the distortion of the bass and please don't put in so much phaser/flanger (whatever you use in fl studio, they give the same effect). Also, try to make it less repetitive and put some more background melodies and sounds and pretty much just master it.

It may look like I zerobombed it but I just have a high voting disposition, no I didn't give it a zero, this song doesn't deserve near zero.

Sorry about the overly long criticism, It's just that whenever I am giving a review a low score, I MUST put alot of criticism in there. so yeah...

2/5
5/10 bro.

Grimmace666 responds:

thanks for the review...dont worry i saved the song and im gonna remix it alot to make it great ^^...i just love the song so i wanted to mix it...but i will definatly remaster it

[_/Get Down\_ EP #2 (demo)]

Cool

I love the instruments you use in your songs and you don't know how much I love filtering effects automations. It's not some of your best work, but It's a start to trance. (definitely a better start than I did with trance) . It's a pretty good song dude. It got zerobombed AGAIN too. why do people always zbomb the good stuff and never the crappy stuff I always wonder? Well, great song anyways man. KUTGW
5/5

[_/Rain on Me\_]

WOOOOT

more people should make techno like you. You have serious talent. and your music has a trademark in a way that It was made by you because of the instruments you keep using. (to keep you happy, RIXET is still my most favorite haha, I lived up to my word). Try lengthening this. I think topweekly judgement Is coming soon so I suggest you start working on it soon haha.

btw, I commented on some of your OLLLLLLLLDEST songs. LIke from when you were 10.

ShootingStar responds:

Haha..wow..thanks for the review!!
And yeah, i still like rixet alot..you did say that was your favorite..
And this is just a sample..it will be longer..
THanks!!
