tijnn's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hersher - Greaseballs]

I loved most of it, and normally i'm really not into the screamery-harder dance. I like underground sounds and a chilling vibe. The only thing that reaaaaally ticked me off was the dbglueglitch tapestop effect every 4 measures or so. That effect is so overused!

["Final"]

Razor presets all over yo.

Plus it isn't techno at all lol.

[The Archives]

Really liked it a lot, straight up my alley.

Just that the reverb cut itself @ 2:50 makes me think it's all loop based and
makes me a little less impressed. Good song nonetheless.

RichardBatchelor responds:

Thanks man :)

Oh dear, didn't notice that, have to edit that when I get the chance. Thanks for letting me know :)

[Hypersound]

The bass could use some sidechaining to create a stronger pulse in the track.

Anyways, this isn't techno at all, derp.

[Average Girl]

Totally awesome.

It's a bit shameful that the mix is so rough though. Punk is rough, i get it. :P But the vocals get pushed away by the heavy mix on the guitar together with it's sheer volume.

I'd love to hear this again with some better balance between vocals and the guitar, other than that, fantastic job, and lovely lyrics too :)

[==(Solace)==]

Uuuuuuuuh!

This is inredibly beautiful, i think this has to be one of the best songs i have ever heard on Newgrounds, it's so well written and played with convincing power.

Loving it!

[=Magic=]

I don't want to break it down on you.

I'm sorry to say but ahm...

You just totally stole the melody from DJ Tiesto - Adagio for Strings without giving him any credit or mentioning it. It sounds fine, don't get me wrong, but all the artists ripping melodies nowadays, even in popular mainstream music is giving me a headache.

Don't contribute to the music industry falling apart please, and let your OWN creativity speak!

Daydream-Anatomy responds:

I didn't steal anything, I based most of this song on a midi from dms epic chord progressions vol 1 and heavily edited it, tbh I don't like DJ tiesto.

edit: I just went and listened to it, damn.
My first melody after the piano's pretty much like his main melody.
After realizing this I went and grabbed and midi cuz I thought there's no way they're the exact notes, and they're not:p
Here's the notes when they're at their closest to being simular:
My melody:
A G# A B A B C B A B C D

His:
A G# A B G# A B C A B C B

It's a lot a like, but different enough that I dont' care to credit him or like being compared to him. He didn't influence me here, not on a conscious level anyway.
Other then that melody though I don't hear much simularities, and I only play that melody once before it gets more complex. Sorry but it's a hard pill to swallow, as it completely surprised me.

Thanks for the review.

I press 5/5 10/10 before i start listening. Because i know you always deliver.

Glad that once again you didn't prove me wrong!
