Djflashstep's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Do it right ! (instrumental)]

damn

pretty funky shit, but good none the less

Crueltool responds:

OKY DOKY!

[DFR- Dream Catcher]

very nice track but

i dont know, it just needs to sound a little.... bigger. like, most of the time it sounded like it just the drums and the arp you were using, with a small build up sound every now and then.

DesoFreelanceRecords responds:

Yeah, I know what You mean. this track have poor basssline. It should pumpin the whole song... To be honest, It's not my best production hehe.
Im happy that You enjoyed some part of it :]
Thanks for the feedback !

[Sjwiajxizjskgq]

well

there is a limit to how confused breakbeat and can sound, as far as rythm and pitch varying, you were all over the place. when it first started i went, well maybe we will have a quick little super confused break intro, then go into some kind of steady rythm with small confusions, but to my surprise, everything got cluster fucked, and then that strange noise came in about half way through and that just scared me a little. Shame, i can sense alot of rythm and potential here, maybe its just not my style.

Mechabloby responds:

I wanted to try something that was all over the place, really (in terms of pitch and rythym as I wanted a raw edge) - maybe as an attempt to unnerve listeners, I started to sing and distorted the recording. It's more of an experiment, but if somebody can enjoy it, then that's cool.

Thanks for the review. :)

[ThoughtsOfYou]

i would consider this more ambient than classical

but regardless, i gave you a 5

michaelt15 responds:

I would put it under contemp. but I didnt see it haha.Thank you :)_

[Kami | Deeper things]

wow

is one of those submissions that i am surprised to see on newgrounds. sounds real professional, almost nujabes-like.

10/10
5/5

Kamikazi1 responds:

Thanks man glad you dig!

[Strang]

ugh

am i the only reviewer with their sanity still in tact? this hurt to listen to too be honest. The main synth was really annoying, some of the melodies had potential but i feel like most of them just had extra notes added in to make the song sound moire complete. Also, nothing is nearly busy enough to have your percussion be this basic. You literally just have a kick and a clap. also, there is almost no bass. please work on it, you have potential.

Cuzone responds:

No way, I only have a kick and a clap? Thank you for the warning, Christgau!

[Team4tress]

meh

your lead square gets old fast. the ambient soundscape you have at about 20 seconds really doesn't fit, also, your in between hi-hats should come in at 20. i dont think you had any hi hats now that i think about it. also, no offense, but the whole thing just doesn't sound very good. the only part i kind of felt was the very end breakdown, for some reason that sounded the most right.

zenodio responds:

I have the same feeling, really. I honestly don't like it.
But as i wrote in the "author comments" box, i didn't really make a big deal out of this.

This reack is below my standards, but thanks for the review anyways.

[Unison Power -Dj992]

you claim this is an expiriment

well, its safe to say, expiriment failed. You are using shit default drum sounds, you have very inactive and low bass for a house song. the temp is incredibly slow and the whole song just drags along spitting out shit sound effects and noises every 2 seconds. d yourself a favor and download "The vengance pack".

TreeDonkey responds:

The drum samples that were used are as follows:
VEH2 Hard Kicks - 023
VEC3 Snares 042
VEC3 Cymbals Ride 04
VEC3 Cybals Ride 03
VEH2 Soft Kicks 032
VEH2 Open HiHats 014
VEH2 Open HiHats 017
VEH2 Open HiHats 018

These are ALL samples from the Vengeance Soundpack. You have a bad ear for music I can see.
My bassline goes; 'sa titi sa titi sa ta titi sa'. I agree that it is pretty low and it could be alittle more active.
I wouldn't say the tempo is INCREDIBLY slow, it's 132BPM.
Because this is in unison it doesn't have a melodic structure what so ever, so my only idea was to have that "shit sound effect" to add more of a rhythm to compensate for the missing melody.
This was more of a challenge rather then an experiment. I appreciate your review and I see that I haven't risen to my challenge.

[Pent up]

its okay i guess

should really have quiet bass and light percussion, ambient is no excuse for laziness, though it sounds very calming and interesting, if repetitive

Mushroom responds:

I tried it with percussion and it seemed to ruin the generally pentatonic nature of it. Besides, I thought the kalimba-type sound gave it a sort of rhythmic bounciness without being actual untuned percussion.
I agree with you that the bass sound should probably be different, but this was just an experiment to see what I could make in exactly 15 minutes, so I'm content to let it lie for the moment :P
Thanks for the review.

[Super Mario Bros. - Over world]

haha

made me smile, very good cover

Stage3-1 responds:
