DjZeaklous's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[]}a{[Imagin. Revolution [prev]]

I would review longer..

But the guy below me covered it pretty solidly. I agree with every thing he said. I think that you need to turn up the column of all the sounds except the melody and piano. The melody and piano are good but I can barely hear the rest. This song has promise, just keep working on it.

alertG responds:

thanks a lot ofr the review :)

i already worked on the bassline, and it does sound really nice!

[Knights of Cydonia [EON Remix]]

Sounds a whole lot like Ciaran Begley's RMX

The intro is almost note for not like Ciaran Begley's remix.

Pretty good remix although I like Ciaran's remix better. Overall it doesn't flow as well as it could, a little more work would be good. To me and I think it is a little too long.

By the way, did you get permission to remix this? I don't see any in the author's comments.

EON responds:

You don't need permission to remix a song if it's non-commercial.
And I'm not sure what the laws are for sampling, something like you can't use more than 3 seconds/sample, but as this is public domain it doesn't really matter.
Also many artists make 'white label' tracks, which are never released, if they've used a lot of samples from the original song or haven't made special arrangements with the artist.

And who's Ciaran?

Intro

the intro is rough. Starts out slow then instantly fast. Fix that.

Overall good remix. The ending is weird. I would probably take out the sound at 4:28 completely and just let it fade out.

Anima-Theory responds:

I don't really understand what you mean by the opening. Perhaps if you could PM me and explain in more detail what you mean, that would be helpful :)

Thanks for the review

[You're in my mind]

Pretty good

It just needs more depth by adding more pads. Especially in the beginning.

The transition at 0:48 needs to be better. That sound comes fits well, just doesn't transition well.

The cut off at 1:09 probably wasn't needed that soon. I do like the soft part, just shouldn't cut off that soon.

The piano that comes into the soft part doesn't fit perfectly, but is good after the transition.

The ending was sudden and too soon. You should go back into a part like from 0:48 but still making it fit better.

Good start. I like most the sounds. All you need is more layer at the beginning, fix some transitions, and change the ending. Nice work.

Galestorm responds:

Im not done on this song, I know, thats why the ending sux. ;)
This one is going to be much longer, but I wanted some opinions

[XN - 7 Means Home (Pealex RMX)]

Good for a start

I like your style. It is unique.

I also like a lot of your sounds, they just aren't put together well enough to be a good song.

Love the sound starting at 0:34. Draw that out more and get better sounds with it.

Some of your symbols are off and the song is too random. Make it flow better.

All in all good first song, just needs more work.

Pealex responds:

Thanks dude, i'm learning more and more everyday.

Thanks for the review and for the votes!

[To Love's End - Inuyasha (YT)]

Pretty good

It's repetitive. Need more sounds.

I like the melody.

Good altogether, needs work and more sounds.

Yourz-Truly responds:

just a quick demo still thanks

[walking in the Shadows]

Vocals

It is good vocals and is good that you are trying to add them, but you need to make them fit better.

The sounds come in very badly and the song just doesn't fit well together. Need much more time on making this sound like a song. Much more work on the transitions and making it fit as a whole.

Without the vocals this would be a 5 oe less.

KRTStyles responds:

ok thanks for the information, i will try better the next time ;)

[(PM) Vitamin Z (LOUD Remi]

Dood

What happened the the score? 1.88? Wow. I have to fix that.

Is this only a louder version of the other song? It seems really similar to me. It might have a couple changes though. Anyway, good song!

Parkerman1700 responds:

Yeah, the drums are changed, and there is a soundgoodizer on the arp.

[Newtonize]

Pretty good!

I liked this song. Good job. The piano was a good part.

The trance part of the song was sort of repetitive and not thorough enough though. You need some more sounds added in.

Good catchy melody though. That's always good.

Good song, I think it needs a little more work though.

Branches responds:

yeah I enjoyed it too. Yeah after about two hours I kinda got bored of music and wanted to play halo or somthing but was determined to get it done so that has alittle to do with the repetition.
Thx Loads

[Honoring the Fallen]

DracAlucard215 responds:
