alertG's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[[SJ] Ascension]

too good

okay, the strings kinda suck. But the plain dnb is better than big-time dnb artists!!!!

so if you work with the melody and flow, that dnb skill you got will blow everyone away. trust me. i love it.

10/10 because the dnb part is like a 15/10.

SteakJohnson responds:

thanks man, ill try an sort these stringys out

[Ranter - Conquer]

its alright

id say maybe listen to some more drum n bass and how a lot of transitions are done. better transitions would sound cool!

i like the melody, but the percussion pattern could use some work. the intro is also kind of un-interesting. maybe add some more hi-hats in there as well.

has good potential. i would come back to this song after you get more practice in!

ranter responds:

Yeah this isn't really my best dnb song, that's "The Chase Ride"
And this is kind of a wrong version i put up and i just noticed that...
I left out some hi hats wich is missed at the beginning.

But thanks for the review!
I can really use the feedback !

[Inspirations]

not too bad

i dont think its because its too melodic. intro was not bad, but it is very minimal throughout the song. so i wouldnt really notice it as dnb for a bit of the song.

its not bad. personally my preference is harder drums, hats, kicks everything percussion.

smilingpig67 responds:

I'll take that into account when I do my next song that suits this genre. Thanks!

[Zelda Cover WIP v2]

underworld part is KICKASS

im downloading this because of underworld.

imagine this song played by the band in that zoras cove or whatever in majoras mask. so much popularity if that happened.

but anyway this isnt perfect, but really good so keep it up!

Burn7 responds:

Thanks, I'm gonna be sure and work my ass off to get this to be the best it could possibly be when I finalize it.

[Depth Charge [Wip]]

would be awesome

if it broke into an amazing melody!!! cool

if you dont wanna work on it maybe send to me and i will try to add amazing melody?

SteakJohnson responds:

sure why not lets call it a collab, the snare needs sum improvements which i will make though

[Syst3m Sh0ck [RNG]]

ill just keep it simple ;)

i would like more presence of the bass kick
i agree, the hat that pans back and forth pans too much

seemed repetitive to me, not enough transition, it only transitioned the melody cut and bassline pretty much. pretty uniform

nice melody
nice bass minus the kick
nice background pad sound

pretty good! but it just doesnt do it for me to download it. decent if used as background in a flash though, so its hard to judge because of its different uses, but i still feel its a little uniform.

Sirdangolot5 responds:

I guess I should cool it with the panning effects in the future, even though the hat really went from -25 to +25 in either direction.

Several people have said that the kick is too weak, and this was AFTER I made it considerably stronger through layering it, so I'll have to see what I can do about that.

GRRRRRR

i wanted to like it. I was expecting it to come to a LOUD edgy synth coming in to replace the pattern of the bass. that would be EPIC. but it didnt happen and stayed kinda melow. :( there was a build with antipation..... then it ended.

YouriX responds:

Well im sorry buddy. But this submission was after all for a piano and drum contest. But that new synth idea i might use it ;)

[[NB] - Void (Trance/Hardstyle)]

awesome

love it. at first i was skeptical about the reverbed synth that doesnt have as much presence, but i kinda like the uniqueness of it!

amazing work props. d/l, 5

weemeee responds:

Hehe yeah i guess it has it's uniqueness to it ^^
Thanks for the review bro!

Peace out ~ Noisebringer! :3

[[SJ] Octane]

INTENSE

gwwwAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHHHH. love it. i think the intro could use a little better structure though. i also think around 2:25 'bout, you could take a little break! keep the bass out for a second. because that transition would make the ending seem more epic. Otherwise its intense the WHOLE time. (which isnt too bad, but slowing it down for a part just lets you relax before BAM its back.)

great work though. worth a download. and also its underrated atm.

SteakJohnson responds:

Thanks alertg, giving the listener an intensity break does sound like a good idea... I think what it mostly needs is more crazy bass modulations bcaz the bass gets repeptitive for me
