tijnn's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Fable - Temple of Light - Rock]

GOD

NICE MEMORIES.

Actually just noticed how nice the melodies were, but your version of it is way more soothing actually, Although it's a little bit rocky.

I like the chord progression, but ofcourse, credit goes to fable a lot more. The guitar was well done too by the way, the melodies really shape a different theme than the beginning, and that's pretty well done!

I love it.

[Mission Street (Acoustic Ver.)]

Yay!

Very soothing :)

[The King [7000]]

Wew

Although i think sampling is not as great as writing your 'own' melodies and percussion, BUT, you pulled this off great.

AND... it's the right moment for it too, with his sad death and stuff...
Hope a lot of people get to hear this.

Rest in Peace!

Sirhc7000 responds:

Although some people don't think that sampling isn't original, I think it can have it's own unique sound. By cutting sounds, chopping and rearranging them you can get a sound that's totally different and strangely addictive. I mean, just look at Daft Punk. They totally killed their samples and made a sound that most ppl love. I think you can warm up more to sampling if u just listen to the style a little more. You'll see just how unique it is hopefully. :)

oh and thanks for the nice review! :D

RIP MIKE

[Destiny's Betrayal]

Although

Although i like hypermusic like this, the mastering is not okay, the bells are too hard compared to the 8-bit-ish synth since that is the real raw one out there.

Other than that it all sound like it's made with pre-sets and nothing new all over...

Still a lot more refreshing than the usual Dance CRAP newgrounds loves so much.

By the way, the ending gave me goovebumps and made the 6 in this review go to a 9, i don't know how you pulled that off? ; )

georgem124 responds:

i have only been making music for barely 4 months. i dont know how i got on best of the week. it will forever be a mistery! however this has made me want to continue making music more and more! im sure i will have lots of submissions pouring into newgrounds nowdays.

Audio-Warfare! i actually thought the 8-bit synth was too loud and the song was too loud generally.

[Abyss - F-777]

Hmm

It's okay, but the melodies are like WHAAAAM in your face all the time, make some room for dynamics maybe...

It's all the same again... and again... and again... like every freaking dance song.

I'dd like to see someone do something new for a chance.

F-777 responds:

Look at my other stuff =).
Thanks =).

[Lion King - F-777 ReMiX]

Sometimes...

Sometimes i wonder....

Everything that you upload instantly gets top 5 because of your fan base hmm?

I think it's okay but especially not great. The whole mood of the song doesn't settle with the BPM and the style of a hands-up song in my opinion.

Other than that...

A great and smooth job on the transitions.

F-777 responds:

I can't control my fan base OR the top 5 =/.

Also iv only gotten 12 top 5's out of 108
submissions (theres only 98 right now
cause iv deleted some). So i don't instantly
get top 5 with everything.

And i didn't get a fanbase out of thin air i
earned it so please don't say im only
getting top 5's cause im CHEATING or somthing
cause i have fans.

I have fans i can't help it =(.

Thanks for the review though im glad you
can be honest unlike a lot of other people.

Thanks =).

[That Tune]

Man...

If you made this from scratch it's well chilling.

but ehm...

AAAARGH it gets kinda annoying after 4 times 'that tune' x]

randomheckler responds:

yeah it was made from scratch. that a milli song as an instrumental gets annoying after awhile. thats why i would like to put some vocals on top of it. thanks for the review.

[Need help from FL pro]

Hmm..

There is just one problem and that is...

Fruity Slayer is just nót what you want to use. It's sort of a bad VST.

You might want to 'purchase' (read, download) native instruments or nexus if you want to use a guitar in your songs (:

The delay takes all of the sound with it. You might want to add some attack to get a clean sound (or do it the easy way, cut away some of the 'in') without clicking, since the clicks are made in the very first nanoseconds. Problem there is, that it will sound a líttle offbeat.

You can't delay something without getting the sounds in the 'original' note.

I can hardly explain, but my biggest hint would be, do not use FL slayer.

thatguy669606 responds:

yeah slayer does suck, ill try the others unless I can get my interface to work with my guitar and run it through my head.

[Propylite]

Yes!

First 5 seconds made me vote 5 already. I love the touches in this song, the melodies are soothing like they should be in an ambient with some very nice high notes.

Would've liked it to build up more though...

It loses it's power over the minute: I'dd suggest you to throw in a heavier bass or build to a climax, adding some harder drums maybe.

This is good for lounging, nice background music when you're high but...

As for a song, it should build up (:

RaptorJesus responds:

Thanks tijnn, I'm with you, this could sound cool with some heavier bass or a big climax. I might even change this to a loop.

[Your dissolving face]

Hmm!

It's actually really good, the opening might be a little shorter though, and i'm missing an obvious break or dropdown. Maybe with a filter effect.

And ehm... the vox, sorry, but i totally didn't like it personally.

For the rest, awesome!
