WizardSleeve's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bout' it Bout it]

BANGING!!!!!!!

Seriously this is a really good track. How did you make that high pitched noise? I been trying to make something like that for ages.

Love your beat work, good job on that although the main banging bassline muddys the drums a bit, might want to get some compression on it and a lp filter on both at differat freaquencys.

I loved how ever time i thought this track was going to end it did get better... My 2 subs are loving this tune, its not often they get any action out of the audio portal.

Nice to see some one who knows what dnb is as well!

[Trashcanned - Synapse]

Sveet!

Fucking cool riffs, I tell ya what the voice sounds actually pretty good.. bit cory from slipknotish. Wow dude, nothing stands out as being wrong in this tune at all. I am gonna have to listen to it a few times to get the lyrics tho.

I seriously see your band getting somewhere some day. Well I will have to listen to more of ur bands stuff to make that call really but from this tune alone i can tell that ur gonna go somewhere!

Questionauthority responds:

thanks dude! I'm glad to hear that from a great NG musician!

[Silencium]

not bad for first FL attempt!

This was certainly interesting. Some of the piano sounds so dischorded but that works in this instance. The begining is very dark.. the tune then goes a little gamey with that faster section its alright but not as good as the slow bit. Then what you take it too is pretty fucking cool, when you get better at FL this is definatly a tune that you should look into improving. It defiantly shows promise

Questionauthority responds:

thanks for the review! i'm working on getting better with it right now-so maybe i'll work on silencium again!

[PaNdOrA-Spirit of a warrior]

Not bad but still not quite dnb

Yeah dnb is at 160-200 bpm. I choose 175-180 on average.

This is a very well made tune tho, couple of little bits need refining, i am not sure what it would be classed as.. dark ambient electronica i guess.. but i like it. Its sorta something you would almost like to have on a FPS (first person shooter)

Pandora-Tranquil responds:

DUDE this was DONE AT 200 BPM!!!!!

you musthave listened to it in the player, DOWNLOAD IT, there is a huge bug where all songs are played at a lower BPM if you listen by clicking play.

[PaNdOrA-The Striker]

funky

This had a kinda funky vibe, and i love that synth, although it sounds a little quiet for me. Its a bit housey!

I really like this, very well produced man, the only thing I would change about it really is making it longer so i could listen to is some more :)

Pandora-Tranquil responds:

lol thanks, this is one of my best trances i have to say. even though i made it a while back.

[PaNdOrA-Maintain.]

Ooo bit differant :)

I like how this starts, wow thats some fucking good production. thats some good beat work man i am very impressed. Please say you made them urself!

I like the way this progresses. That high pitched sound was good but i found when some of the instruments died down it became a bit annoying.

I would have liked this to build up to a massive drop and come in with some sick bassline and amen style beat. It didn't, if it had you woulda have got a 10 but i think the work you have put into this is deserving of a 9.. I just hope there is an extended version with a drop coming out :)

By the way.. because your songs are so obviously being Capped by assholes who care about being no 1 in the ratings and making so none of your tunes ever get a listen, I have gone through giving them all 5's so at least they should be closer to the score they deserve. And everything i have listened to of yours is worth 3-5

Pandora-Tranquil responds:

Thanks a bunch dude!
maybe ill think about making it like you said, but again, how bout a collab?

we could work on the next version as a remix\collab ?

lol ill post about it in the audio joint thread.

[PaNdOrA-Wandering Flames]

I like this

Its not exactly funk all the way through, but it is very funky, the intro did put me off at first it was a bit basic and the sound was kinda cheesy, but it grew on me for some reason, with a bit of processing and improving on the actual sounds u used, i can see this being quite a good track actually

Pandora-Tranquil responds:

when i first made it i didnt think it was that good, then i went back and listened to it, and it has a really basic sound to it, and it actually sounded pretty nice so i submitted it.

[PaNdOrA-Armageddeon(DnB M1X)]

Not Drum and bass again my friend

Drum and bass does not have a 4x4 beat, it uses the jazz 4x4 off beat

Kick X---------X-----
Snare ----X-------X---

And variations of that, with ripping roaring basslines and other stuff like that.

Here are some drum and bass artists you can look at so you can get some better knowledge, and see that ur creating techno.

Dillinja
Pendulum
Concord Dawn
Andy C
Ram Trilogy
John B
Roni Size
Twisted Individual

There are alot more artist, but check them out, might give you an idea eh.

I hope this helps, you definatly have tallent, can't wait to hear something new.

Pandora-Tranquil responds:

yeah i guess, thanks i guess.

im glad you like some of my shit, thanks for the comments, its jus a catagory, so its not that big of a deal, but maybe u gave me some ideas for drums, well see.

mainly i stick to trance type music, but i like DNB and techno too.

[PaNdOrA_Death From Below]

Not D+B

This is not drum and bass... this has a 4x4 beat and a typical trance style bassline. Its not a bad tune particularly, but there is nothing that stands out too well.. had you put this under techno you might have had a couple more points from me, cos I do like some of the backing beat work that is in there.

You could actually take this tune somewhere..

I am going to have a listen to some more of your drum and bass and see if you got that right.. if you haven't i will give you some artists to listen to so you can find out what drum and bass is

Pandora-Tranquil responds:

ur right about the dnb shit, but i wish u wouldnt vote lower jus cuz its in the wrong catagory.

thanks nevertheless for the review u damn critic lol

[FFX Piano Medley]

Good shit

Liking this one man, very well done, u sure do have some good piano skills. Glad you are doing FF games aswell hehe.

I'd love to give you a full detailed review but their isn't anything to really comment on, because this is a very nice piano piece.

Would be good if you did a version with a beat and a bassline tho

Bezo responds:

If I was going to do that, I'd probably only use one or two themes, which could actually work really well. It may be something to work on, since I've only got one game music project on the go at the moment.
