Benji-G's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Earthquake]

I really can't find the rythm when it's 7/4 lol, but good job anyways.
I feel like you should've used some other type of growl in the drop, but in general this song is pretty good! Keep it up and GL! :)

AceTAD responds:

It's always 7/4 the whole piece. Thanks!

[Cs - 'Slippery']

Ooo I love the little impact at 00:10. But the beat at 00:21, the cymbals are a little overused.

[Twilight Forest]

I like the string in the beginning, but at 00:40 it feels a little bit empty. Although, I like the drop, the strings really fit with the other instruments.

[Gapbrick - Vacillation]

This is very good, and with the sidechain, it makes it all sound really smooth and chill. GJ! :)

glutenfree responds:

Thanks man!

[The Kraken]

I can clearly hear that you used the Cynimatics Dubstep Pack, but I'm not complaining, I use it aswell. The drop feels very week for being dubstep. I feel like you could've added a stronger and more powerful growl.

[Life Views]

Wow, it feels very alive and it all just flows on. Great job!

[Rap Beat 1]

I like this actually, but for a rap beat it's a bit too happy, if you know what I mean.

[The dream]

This is quite decent actually, but I'm missing some drums, not big kicks & snares, but maybe a slight drum or something that's not very loud at all, just so the song feels a bit more alive. Good job though!

this is all my opinion so don't see it as a negative thing,

CielOuvert responds:

A slight 1-0-0-1 kick accompanied by a snare/clap fusion a a few times is what I imagine would fit. I'll try it. Thank you :)

[divjoci]

It's a cool stucture and all that, but I there is almost no melody. You only used drums and some kind of bass here and there. Although I like the jungle FX, they were quite cool. Maybe you should have gone with a bit more of an ambient style, and maybe add some kind of string to make it a bit less empty. I would suggest you to look up some tutorials on youtube how to make good sound designs, and stuff like that.
It's also very repetitive, and since it's over 5 minutes long, it can get quite boring to listen to.
Also think of making the song title capitalized, it stands out more and it will give you more listeners.
Sorry for the low rating, but if you just could add a bit more of what I just said, I would rank this a bit higher.

Kontiki responds:

Yeah im cool with your review as long as it's critical
Im beginner, i lack knowledge in sound design/synth but we're getting there

[endK - Ruby Saloon]

You're gonna win the contest so hard!

endKmusic responds:

Thanks for the kind words.
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
