Suspended-3rd-Chord's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Syntrus Presents: Synimatix]

sweeeet man

this was a really different type of hip hop loop. I rather liked the change. the synths all blended in well making a cool electro sounding loop. The one that sounds like a mix between a harp, piano, and bell that comes halfway in through the mix sounds damn tight and has a nice sad melody to it. taking a stab at changing the drums a bit through the loop would help, although the simple beat complements the song nicely. I love the atmospheric vibes I get from the background FX.

overall very cool song!

Syntrus responds:

thx man

[~On-yX~ Insomnia Remix Demo.]

Nice start off clip..

the synths and drums sound nice in the beginning..its a pretty sweet loop. I don't know if you were planning on including the slowed down part in there.

should you continue? definetly! very sweet intro, you could add more to this and you'll have a complete sweet audio track at your disposal.

On-yX responds:

Thanks :) Yes I did intend a slow part at the end. I just wanted to add a little touch for the demo xD

[- Virtue - ( PREVIEW )]

another badass loop by greeksta

great stuff here man...sad melodies, nice piano riff, and soothing strings.

great job on the beat-the bass drum and gunshots did cause minimal clipping on my speaker, but no big deal really. the piano wasn't audible enough, just turn the volume up a tad and maybe add a bit of reverb(while the other instruments are playing).

good job again man!

Greeksta-69 responds:

thanks for the reviews man i enjoy these type of reviews more than others they really help me out in the future thanks alot man.

[- Moving Up - Collab]

original rap loop here!

this one is sweet and sexy. the sitar and flute is sweeet, it really adds to the song. perhaps add a little reverb to the sitar to add some more sustain. I'm diggint the strings riff. Nice EQed bass and hip hop beat. great work overall!

do you mind telling me where you got the flute from? I've been looking for a soundfont or something of one for ages, and have had no luck. so if you could PM me or post it here that would be great thanks! good luck on the rest of your work.

Greeksta-69 responds:

Hey man im glad you liked the song. The flute... well i got it from a friend then we just made the melody and added pitch bend, most GM soundsfonts have the flute so search that up and just do it with some pitch bend and stuff and it will sound pro ! anyways thanks for the review man.

[[TMM43] Hello?]

sad, touching techno loop

this would be perfect for an intro piece...

the lead saw synth was too loud, so you couldn't hear the background synth as well. nice phase effect going on here.

I dig this song, its nice and gloomy.

TMM43 responds:

Thanks for the review.
I'll keep your suggestions in mind while remaking this.

[-WritersBlock-Processional]

nice classical clip

the melodies were nice and slick; they could have been a changed up through the song a bit. nice piano and synths. the piano riff played in sixteenths sounded really good. The synths were a bit blurry and could have been EQed a bit better.

the drum mixes are tight. I dig how you added them to a classical style of music. You could have experimented with a different bass kick sample, or perhaps EQed it with more bass, I couldn't hear it much in some sections of the track.

great work! reminds of me of the batman returns video game OST...

WritersBlock responds:

Thanks for reviewing.
Sounds too technical for me...
I think I just used whatever 3/4 drum samples I could get hold of, I might have even had to make one of the drum loops from scratch, I can't remember, it was months ago XD. I think there was only one kick I really used, the stock standard FPC sample.
Glad you like it. (Makes me feel good inside =P)

[~Boten Anna~]

nice remix, maybe a bit generic

overall, the mix could have been a bit louder. I can't fairly grade this track; because I don't remember the original song to well. perhaps a little bit of diversity wouldn't hurt, such as mixing the drums up a bit. the song overall is a bit boring, but that's my opinion, and your score shouldn't suffer from it. I won't hurt your 5/5 :)

[Dj Eagle - Rave all night long]

catchy rave music

nice spacey sounding riff in the intro. perhaps you should have went with this bit a little more throughout the track. not that the meat of the song was bad at all, I liked it. but it would have added some diversity to this piece.

the drums could have been a tad louder..

cool clip here.

[BFG23!]

nice mellow clip!

I really dig the background guitar that sounds like a whale..Nice rhythm guitar, drums, and keyboard. they all flowed very well and where nicely recorded. perhaps the rhythm guitar could have a bit more punch, possibly by adding a light chorus.

you or whoever has a great voice.

the instrumental end part around 3:10 is beautiful sounding..my favorite part of the track.

the only problem with the clarity was there was too much bass when the vocals hit...kinda of drowning out the singing.

great track man!

[In A Trance Redux]

pretty clear, nice track

the song was bit unoriginal and generic, such as the drums and some synth riffs, but hey, like most trance and techno songs they aren't very diverse from each other.

nice backing synths...some synths are too loud, like the one that kinda turned off and off...the little chord that starts off is cool, but you could have mixed it up a bit. the distorted panning synth is pretty sweet. everything else was groovy and catchy. not a bad track man.
