The-XI's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dryad Whispers]

OMG PENIS!

This song is nothing less than 'magnificent'. The harp adds such a graceful feel to the track, and the flute compliments perfectly.

This song is perfect, no lies. Its diverse, clear as a bell, harmonics are FLAWLESS, and the insutrment choice was nothing less than professional.

You have no idea how much I love you now. Your music owns mine SERIOUSLY. I could never write something this... amazing.

Magnificent. Seriously.

KEEP THIS UP, OR SATAN HIMSELF WITH FORNICATE YOUR URETHRA WITH A LARGE IRON STICK.

^^^Disturbing xD

Grumbleduke responds:

Er, thank you?

lol much obliged for providing you some entertainment. And I'm not talking about the iron stick this time. Maybe later :D

[Eaten Alive]

Album?

Seems like anyone that can make music has an album.

A piece of advice : wait awhile until you make an album, because one day you'll at your older albums and say 'Man, I sucked back then.' And you'll regret making one...

Before you read that wrong, I don't think your music sucks, lol =P

The arp is nice, even though the other distorted synth that comes in kind of crowds the song? One distorted synth is enough =)

The drums were FL presets, it would be better if you strayed away from those. It makes music sound kind of 'bland', you know? Look around Google or something and find yourself some nice new samples =)

Good work, keep it up, and could you stop by my audio page and leave a review or two? I'd appreciate it =D

[Highway Tricks (remix)]

Very clean!

I love the beginning with the drum work. Very liquid, it feels. It also lives up to the same when the bassline kicks in.
The song itself was arranged pretty decently, but I would ahve liked the drum work from the beginning of the song to break in after the pad.
Try not to add to much stuff in the song without progressing it first, I need drums! I'm hearing a percussionless song =(

So, the song is good, yur ynth work is good, you just need workon your arrangement, is all. Then your set =D

Keep it up! Could you drop a review or two on my audio? Thanks!

Tanooki-John responds:

Im glad you like the drumork, but I believe I still need more practice, Im not as good as Psyguy, Choramut, Paragonx9, Bahamut reborn, and a few others, but I am trying. I will check out your audio whenever I have time, thanks anyway!

[Acid Flash Loop]

Very nice, but

its almost too clean? Sure, it sounds nice and stuff, but the smooth FL samples and the cheese lead make it seem too smooth, when I saw acid, I'm thiking 'hardcore'. Also, the acid synth is a bit loud... turn it down a bit?

The song is good, I like the drumwork. =D

Could you check out my songs and leave a review or two? I'd really appreciate it if you did =)

mariomusicmaker1 responds:

i will go listen to ur songs and i am updating the longer version of this song tomoro! thankyou much for your review. will be a bit more dirty at the breakdown then i dont know it will be good!

[Zeridox [CLUB]]

Awesome bassline.

The sliding does kind of get annoying after a while, but it IS catchy. Not doubt about that.

The percussion serves its purpose, but it cold have served its purpose BETTER, if you didn't use FL presets, and used open hi hats on the offbeat =D And, I beg you, don't use that clap again =( You have a great song going on here, but the clap is like hitting a dead horse with a 2X4, while all this magnificent horse riding is going around.

Also, I hear a lot of distortion, put a compressor on the main channel. If it sounds bad when you first turn it on, thats cause you haven't mucked with it yet. Turn it on, set it to soft, and turn the realease to about... 1200? Around there. Make sure the gain is about at -1 or -2, and make sure the ratio is 10.0 : 1. If it still sounds bad, turn down your instruments =P Don't turn UP your instrments volume so you can hear them, turn them DOWN, so the ones you want to stand out will. Don't max out the volume of any instruments.

Good work man, I enjoyed it, you ust got a few things to work on. Sorry if i sounded harsh =(

Keep it up! Could you drop by my audio page and review a song or two? I'd appreciate it =D

Bytt-Batteriet responds:

Smacking a dead horse with a 2x4... hahaha. Friggen funny as hell. I have to admit, sometimes the uneeded critisism can be funny. Yeh, I haveto admit.. that clap can get to you. But thanks for the long review.

Bytt.

[Overclocking]

Psytrance? I'm there =D

Wow, so far what I'm hearing, this pwns anything I could do. Magnificent string countermelody, and excellent 303 arps. Awesome...

One thing that is bothering me: The kick. The kick should be short, and full of bass. Its a little long.

Awesome work... you get all 10s from me.

dj-padman1 responds:

Thanks mate, I think you're right about the kick btw. :0

[Vital Atmosphere (reuploaded)]

Oh, i reviewed the slow one =P

Nice. Well, you already know what I said with the other review, same things apply. But the song DOES sound a lot better with a faster tempo =) Adds more colour to it =D

Keep it up!

[Vital Atmosphere]

Nice wind

its good to see that someone else knows how to use the noise wave length =P

This song is at a very nice, slow tempo, but I don't hear a definate bass synth? =( It would solidify the groove you have going a lot.

The song is good, but its getting kind of repeptitive. Try to make songs as diverse as possible. Sure, its nice to have a catchy pattern that everyone remembers when they think of the song, but its always better to build a magnificent diverse melody behind it. Like, add some harmonics to the arp so it just doesn't sound the like the same thing over and over.

You are doing really good, though. Keep it up! Could you drop by my audio page and leave a review or two? I'd appreciate it =)

ECLIPTZ responds:

Just to let everyone know. This piece was not intended to get higher rankings then Vital Atmospere (reuploaded). I would appreciate it, if everyone voted on the reuploaded one instead. (unless you truly like this one better)

[Pretty kickass]

Its pretty good for a loop

I like the whole feel you have goin' on here. Very groovy, it'd like to see this finished. It'd be very awewsome-like.

I don't like how it just cuts out at an awkward time. You don't even finish the 2 bars that this song is going >=/

When you make a loop, try to make it loop right =P You did a good job though. Very sick beat.

Keep it up! Could you check out my audio page and review a song or two? I'd appreciate it =D
