Indigorain's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Antiskill- Balearic Dreams]

Soothing

Starts out great, I like how you build up the instrumentation.
The kick is really nice, not too loud, still doesn't lack punch. I like your subtle transitions, like how you used that filter at about 2:45.
I really like the beat you used, it's kinda disco/trancey :D
Your buildoff is great, nice transitions and slowly dropping instruments.

I really enjoyed it, great and soothing, keep it up man!
And now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna listen to your 'sex' track. Damn, I've missed that.

YakovlevArt responds:

Hey, thanks a lot for the kind words. Glad to see you you really appreciated the ambiance =]

[Strength From Within]

Starts out with awesome

Great arps, I loved the way you introduced them immediately.
Your percussion sounds crisp man, only thing that could be changed a bit is the clap, you could place some EQ on them, along with some reverb.
I totally loved your breakdown, the filter was really nice and soothing.
I loved it man, Keep it up! :D
5/5

ReWired responds:

Thanks for the kind words and good advice. I started working on a new song with a much more upbeat (170bpm) kind of feel like your songs and so far I've got a pretty sick melody figured out. I hope you'll check it out and give me critique on it once I get it finished and posted.

Cheers,

[Noisebringer - Disaster WIP]

Do you have symphonic choirs?

Or you must've gotten some people that're able to sing this epic :P
Anyway, the choir is epic man, you should finish it!
The only thing this song could use is some more work on the transitions, I didn't notice any sweeps or cymbals in the song, especially the buildup needs it :]
Anyway, I hope you finish it soon, looking forward to it :D

weemeee responds:

Well i still have to make the intro for the actual song, so when it's done there's gonna be transitions and all the traditional stuff, obviously :P. thanks for the review man.

[The Rise of the Cheshyre]

Strangely good

The intro was weird, but the distorted percussion was amazing there.
The beats were really cool, I loved the glitchy effects.
The only thing I would recommend, is giving the piano some nice effects, especially reverb.
I loved it, keep it up man!
5/5

cheshyre responds:

Thank you!!! I've got a couple of songs in the works that also use piano, so I'll work on making them sound cooler. Thanks!

[-Killstealer-]

I'll tell you what I think, young man!! D:<

It's awesome! <:D
The intro bored me a little bit, but that could be the mood I'm in right now :P
Anyway, when the melody kicked in a little after 1 minute, it started to get seriously awesome :D
And I love the dubstep twist you gave it there in the middle.
The basses and the main melody are awesome. So is the rest of the song, but those are even a little more awesome :D

Waterflame responds:

Thanks man! glad you like it :D yeah the introduction might be a bit too long. thanks for the tip!

[Solar Arc]

You could use some extra effects

Try adding some more effects, after you build to something, for example with a reversed cymbal, it's best if you release the sound you've built up to that point. You could use a sweep down and/or crash, just to give it more power.
You could also add more percussion. An open hihat after each kick could do wonders. Just gotta know where to place them a little.
Keep it up man! :D

DjRubix responds:

Thanks for the review always trying toi learn!

[DJ T3chnic - Once Again]

Excellent work!

I loved it, it might be a cheesy dance song, but I'm so glad that I finally stumbled on one that's mastered properly :D
Great job on that mastering, it's great! The vocals were really cool man, great addition.
Only one point of criticism, and that's when the beat first kicks in at 0:29, you use a snare from the beginning over every kick. I recommend removing those for about the half or 3/4 of that section (the bass kick-in until the next break), it gives the song a lot more build and it makes it start with a nice kickbeat, giving you (as said) more opportunity to build.
Anyway, great variation, nice synth choice, great mastering, good breaks.
Great job man! Keep it up! :D
5/5

DJT3chnic responds:

Thanks man! =). I personally really like the effect the snare gives the kick, but I guess I agree with you, because it does kinda cover up when the build is coming. Anyways, I appreciate the feedback!

[Swish [WIP, Dubstep]]

Awesome-teh-bawesome

Great, the mastering, the synths, the panning, oh god the panning! :D
I loved it, it's great.
I'd love to see the end result of this :D

Or4nges responds:

Thanks man! Good to hear from you again :D
I'll letcha know when it's done

[Antiskill- Caribbean Sand]

Nice!

After looking through your recent audio, I must say, this is excellent! :D
The great simple sound of the beat, the ambience in the pads, the nice caribbean bells, the subtle bass. Great sound! I think this deserves more than a score of 4.24! :D (and more than 78 views)
Great job man! Keep it up, I really loved it!
5/5

YakovlevArt responds:

wow.
That means a lot man. I really appreciate this review.
I don't like to spam or "sell out" but i mean you can just tell people about me. I would love if one of my tracks made it to an animation or flash game =]
Man this great compliments coming especially from you ( your talented man).
Glad you liked it =]

[Drifting On Cloud Nine -SG]

Few things here

Great song, honestly, I really like it. Great melodies, Nice use of filtering, nice and upbeat, good variation. I loved the outro I just heard. A few things to it though. I loved the outro I just heard.

I'd definately call this dance instead of trance. But of course, I'm not that much of a genre-whore, so that's not why I don't give you the full 10 stars.

Something I noticed here in your song (and in lots of others) is the fact that you use the same percussion for the breakbeat in the intro as for the rest of the song. But a dance-ish drumkick isn't very suited for a breakbeat drumpattern. I recommend taking completely other percussion next to your 'dance percussion' just for the breakbeat. You can give it a much nicer sound with a more compact and a little softer kick, along with a more breakbeat-y snare. It would give a much more professional impression in the intro, and mind that that's the first impression that listeners will take from your song, so it has to sound good.

Anyway, I've talked for too long, overall, despite your slightly cheesy chords (which are pretty essential for dance) and the breakbeat in the intro, it had great synths, beats, use of filtering and breaks, breakdowns, structure and a good use of effects. I really liked it.
Keep it up man! It sounds great!
5/5

SKILLZmakeKILLZ responds:

i will improve as long as you keep up the reviews, because they are very helpful ^.^

i will keep in mind the intro breakbeat thing for future songs :3
but i cannot help the cheesy chords, because its just the style of music i like to make.

ty again.
