Meonly70's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[-ganon95- Forever]

Awesome

The beggining starts off pretty swell with the percussion and bass, and when the melody starts to fade in, the energy kind of fades, but I see why you had to do that.

The melody is perfect, but the synths you used in the beggining were a little too low pitched for my style, but all is well, I cant complain about someone else's style, I mean that would be biased.

And the other fade in for the next melody around 1:42 comes in with lots of energy, its what techno needs and the high pitched sound you have during the playtime of the melody, just fits in perfectly and completes that part.

After that the song sort of lost its flow until around 4 minutes through, then the energy came in again, but with more complexity and ear pleasing sounds, good work, just a little plain throughout some parts. And for the last few seconds, i didn't think it was the best way to end the song, maybe try not putting the fequency or whatever you used to a high amount, just lower that a little.

ganon95 responds:

hm yea the beginning synth was modified and im still trying to figure out how to do that correctly and make it sound good

the high pitched melody you heard was actually the same instrament at the beginning

but im glad u liked it anyway

[Ph0ne - Jew Golds (Hopeku rmx)]

Dammit

Seriously, this is getting annoying. The same shit happens with my songs, and I hate it, i don't know if you would, personally.

But you know when you make a new song and post it, you're happy about it, right?
Well, time goes by, people like it, and over time, a lot of people start reviewing it nicely, but you look at the downloads/favs/views and their ratios are bad.

I mean this song is so excellent yet its gone underrated. This needs to stick out more and have more attention, its brilliant.

I swear, people never look at the structure of the song, they only go by what they like/dislike, so biased here. We should have only artists reviewing other people's work....

Nonetheless, onto my review.

You have an absolutely stunning set of sounds in this piece, lots and lots of energy, and huge amounts of orgasms. I haven't heard the original, and I don't want too, this is absolutely amazing. You have a great percussion, great amount of sounds that sound as if they were meant to be put this way into a song. Its almost holy.

The other incredible thing is that you made a 6 minute song, while keeping energy and constant changes throughout it, and did them naturally, which takes a lot of time and work, with loads of effort, in my perspective. The glitches you have throughout the song, make the style a kind of its own. The acid sounds are just a killer in this one, they are what catch your attention, and make you plead for more. My most absolute favorite part is at 3:35 where the native middle eastern verse starts and then goes on too sync into the rest of the song, and it fits so perfectly....

Godly work, props and good luck with your other compositions.

hopeku responds:

Hey thanks for your awesome comment about my song.

About the underrating thing, it's true that sometimes it is very frustrating when you submit a good song and you don't get any exposure. Still, newgrounds is probably one of the best portal i've seen. I never got why, but people here seems to enjoy giving their opinion, they aren't individualist. Sometimes artists here will review to have reviews back, but I am still very impressed on how much attention I am getting here compared to other places.

I stil believe that real good artist here will always, on day or another, have the right exposure they deserve. It's sure that if you submit only one hit song, people probably just won't see it anywhere. So all you have to do is to keep active and wish for a gentle mod to find your awesome song and put it on the front page.

So I don't really care about the everage newground's comunnity judment, I will always find here 4000 more listens and 40 more reviews on every tracks of mine than anywhere else on the web. Hapilly, I always get some great reviews on my song. And you're better put a great song and get 4 reviews on it than putting it on myspace and get absolutely nothing :)

And all thanks to Newground's flash portal, witout this, we wouldn't have a so great audio portal!

[[Hardstyle] The Fury]

Wow

Great melody, nice kick, and great percussion but I recommend putting the volume a LOT higher, great track though.

StompySan responds:

I understand what you said about the volume, but any higher and there is significant clipping that just sounds bleh. Anyway, thanks for the review.

[Chaoz Fantasy_RMX[Dj-S]]

Nice

Drum/snare/cymbal/clap are kind of sudden in the beginning. Otherwise I would say your buildup is great, your synth is nice as well, perfect for the mood and melody.

You just need some more variations of effects and it will sound perfect.

Sacrafan responds:

K, cool!

[Brando - Pure & Tainted]

Ehh

I feel kinda bad. You always give me advice on my songs, but I cant give you any, since I am not as good as this :/

Insane Track. Make it into a Hardstyle song and everything will be juuuuuust fine.....

PS. That didn't make sense. O.o

10/10 5/5

Dj-Brand0 responds:

Yeah It'll be fun making this hardstyle since it sounds soo epicc :D

It's alright if you can't give me advice, leaving a review is always great. :3

This'll be probably my next project in the next week or so. School has died down, holidays in 2 or so weeks. Looking forward to that. :D

Thanks for the review!

-Cheers Brando

[/SN/ Into the Light (Hard Mix)]

Reviewing as I hear

The vocals in the beginning were nice. I like the tail on the snare, and the added in bass with hard noises. It gives the song the sort of hardstyle emotion, and sound. The good thing is that you keep adding sounds to keep the flow going.

One thing i do dislike is the way you faded out those sounds maybe try an EQ fade on all the sounds? I like how you synced and reverbed those vocals, with your piano.

Your melody fade in with those vocals is very original, I don't see it happen much, though its a good transition.

I like your melody, everything is perfect (unlike my pieces lol :P)

I think a better outro would have been another piano melody without a fade in, more like a sudden-ish sort of stop.

Overall, this has minor things, which arent a big deal.

Answer to your question. Use a balance or volume automation along with the low pass filter at the the perfect amount to not have clicking. You can also try another frequency on the EQ filters to go along with that one, thus eliminating clicking.

SessileNomad responds:

yeah i actually did try doing that with the automations, making things with the EQ'ing fall as well as the low pass, i guess its just time to find out which band is best to fall with

yeah tail end no snare was just reverb that had a daley with it

yeah outro was kinda just thrown in there cuz i was really sick of working on this, plus piano outros are somthing that i do WWAAAYY too much

im glad you think the melody is perfect xD

thanks or the review, i realy apreciate it

peace out

[External Trouble]

Brilliant

Wicked sick man. I like your melodies, synths and everything else in this track. Though this song has quite a good sense of trance in it, It still sounds kind of like House to me, but genre doesn't matter, its a song and its good.

You know, songs like this good really do good with vocals, not the ones you have, but like a chick singing or something.

Slowp0ked responds:

Yeah I know the big problem is to find a good vocal which actually fits ^^

[Rock Civilization [RmX]]

WoW!

Now thats some great shit there! I Absolutely LOVE The bass, the vocals, and EVERYTHING ELSE!

Dude someone has to be here to recognize your work, your scores are so low....

Slowp0ked responds:

Thanks! glad you like it, I appreciate that<3

[Hardstyle- Hardstylerz United]

Damn

Nice shit. Never heard a hardstyle song like this before, lots of cool, new things. I like the bass, transitions, breakbeats, and synths.

How long have you been making music? And why is this score so low?

Slowp0ked responds:

Thanx! :D well trying out my own "hardstyle" I've been making music for about 1 year now. thanks for your interest!

[Hooligan (Nustyle redux)]

Hmm Not bad

I like your melody and all the other nustyle/hardstyle elements you have in here, especially the beginning, my second favorite part.

Love the bass too, did you make that or is it layered basses, or did you find it somewhere?

Also, I could have sworn your melody sounds like Keep it Coming.

Hotplurplegnome responds:

thats like 4 layers of kick:D
but yeah sorry man i sent you from wrong account this is the old one:D
the new one is Z-tone
keep it coming is a little different
bit you should defenetly check out the other account
