Stargenx's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[requiem fo' a dream DNB RMX]

Dissonant.

The first strings didn't really match up at all. It made it sound very harsh. When the bass came in it made things a little better but it still needs work. After the synth came in the song because repetitive for a while until you had just the synth alone which was somehow much louder than everything else was. (Compresser maybe? I don't know)

The song went on a for a while in the same fashion as it had before the bass-less five-odd second interlude and then reverted back to the very first part. It could use a lot of improvement. I felt like it didn't capture the spirit of the original piece. It didn't remind me of it at all.

jpgregorio responds:

thx, the louderness was caused by the synth an the strings playing at the same time i think, but thx anyway.

[dubstep wip]

Wobbly 0.0

Sounded very wobbly. One thing I can say is that the wobble changed frequently and I liked that. The snare had a good amount of crash to it. This song could be very good if you started bringing in some bass and pads. You could also add some faster drums later on to speed up the song. Great first attempt.

lol never seen a semi review request club b4

i thought about taking the speed up in this, but i dont know how well that would g owith the genre, most dubstep ive heard is UNGODLY slow

[_Dancing With Demons_]

Very good!

I thought that the soft drums at about :35 were very well done and the song is pretty rockin' in general.
What I thought could change however was the clap. Perhaps you could add a more punchy clap or replace it with a rock snare drum, I don't know, I just thought it sounded a little weak.
Another thing to consider might be adding more melody to it. A large part of the song sounds like it's the background to a song rather than a completed song.
In the way of sounding like club music, it's not quite club music. It's more like chill music rather than club music. It doesn't pump as much.
The length was fine and didn't seem overly long or too short. It was just a smooth ride the whole way through. This leads me to another issue: it needed some surprises in it. Just a little crescendo or something to mix it up a little. This was a good song in general though. This could be better but it's not bad.

Birdinator99 responds:

Pretty sure I've got crescendos in there dude, but good point about the clap -- very true. Melodies are not my forte, so sorry about that!

Thanks for the review!

[Stray Memories(Demo)]

Needs work

The tempo seemed to randomly change. The parts were sporadic and the order in which they appeared also seemed random. The synth didn't play the right notes on some parts. It had some weird compression issues in it too. You could be a lot better if you mixed and mastered better.

Mayvix responds:

this was mixed out of Different Versions. It a Demo Real Really.
i was actully fixing to take it down!. lol thank you for trying to listen to it.

[Drop Style(Remix WIP)]

Shudderific

It had a sort of sharp edge. Some parts sounded muted. It has your distinctive repetitive parts but with a weird sort of disorting static added. A step lower than some of your other submissions.

Mayvix responds:

yeah i know i upgrade my speaker system & have a New version to upload but haven't got around to it yet.

Thanks for the honesty.

[Kiss Me Through The Phone RMX]

It's ok.

The song is fine but it just seems like cheating to post other people's songs just to make them popular.

giftedbuttwisted responds:

Well it's my cousin's, and he's mixing our new cd so I wanna help him out ya kno?

[Crystal Overdose]

Gut!

Ich mag es! Sehr gut gemacht!

Pocketpod responds:

herzlichen dank^^

[Dreams {durn}]

Sounds long.

It sounds very long because it has very little change. This song needs more variety in it. It sounds nice for a while and it seems like you like the sound but it needs some surprise or change in it. It sounded a little bit bland and superficial.

durn responds:

lol, dude, it changes throughout the whole song. I'm not sure what you're listening to this on but it progresses through the whole piece. *boggle* as for it being bland and superficial... o_0 seriously? haha, alright there. to each their own I guess. :p

[At night (DEMO 50sec)]

Sort of...

The drums and the instruments in general were very loud. The drums overpowered lots of the song. I thought that the first few seconds until the drums came in were the best part. The song sounded muffled. I like what you have there though. You should try adding some more instruments to the song and making it longer. An interlude would be great.

IgorCZ responds:

I have finished whole song, and only wait when my friend will record his voice for it. There are more instruments, and much more intensive sounding. I added some sopranos, killed mid and little bass, so that's not muffled now. I know almost all things what you said, but I'm very thankful for your review.
Cheers!

[Snow Burner]

Pretty nice!

That's got a nice retro sound to it. I liked the intermixed melodies. The beat was kind of nice as well. It harmonized nicely and seemed pretty slick.

Shellac responds:

Thanks! Glad you liked it!
