Neon-Crepth's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Draze - Satisfaction [RMX]]

i like most of the original...

this was an okay remix. i like your style of remixing but it didnt do it for me this time.

this song is supposed to be based mostly on 8bit vocals and loud pumping bass. should have been more bass...way more. there was a sound fx somewhere in the intro thing. it reminded me of an alarm clock combined with a throbbing radiator, maybe if it were quieter...idk, w/e. also the crowd noise was in the bg for too long in my opinion.

im being strait forward with the negative points. i did enjoy it. you had, like usual, good mastering.

4/5

[Destruction of a Dream]

cool song exodus

i liked the beginning choir. cool piano like the other guy said. i think you should have added a little bit of reverb on some stuff like the drums and cymbals. i didn't like the:

-synth pitch build up (seemed off key)
-choir pitch swing (didn't really fit the feeling of the song at that point)
-slayer solo (same reason as the above one)
-that one general melody (1 3 5 3 etc. i think you over use that a little bit too much)

on the other hand, great job mastering, i know it didn't show in this version but in the better one it did. lol, i knew you'd be on my back about that one... most of the instruments were good.

i was only pointing out the bad points there, over all, cool remix...

i dont really get what you mean by that.

the synth pitch thing, was on pitch. it was G, the song was in G minor.the choir pitch and guitar were meant to mix the song up, i thought that the song had alot of diffrent elements and those two mixed in with the whole diversity of instruments. maybe i went too far...? i also changed up the melody tempos and pitches alot in the melody, i guess it wasnnt enough for u. that melody sort of acted as the chorus of the song, so to say. im glad you liked it though. thanks for the review.

[Rave Anthem!!!]

nice song carrot...

i would have chosen a different kick and a different clap for that beginning thing. i liked most of the notes and instruments, however, there was one kinda wah-wah synth in the back ground that was pitchy at times.

good transition in the middle, perhaps a little bit of reverb on the previous instruments to it though. (so its not there all alone) there was a cool knocking echoey thing that caugth my attention and fitted the song perfectly. i Liked the whole i dea of the song.

just a few things i would have done:

-master it
-added i short riff that repeats well
-and ended it a little bit better (it seemed too abrupt to me)

good catchy rave you got here, work on melodies, and you might want to tone the instruments down a little bit. ( make them softer)
5/5 and a 10/10 from me. I've got another one coming out today maybe, look for it if u have the time. And i also have an old account, BMC-audio. you can check out the songs there. (it is a shared account and my songs have mawkeetus written in the title)

kk thnx

[Fantasy Piano-Tech]

i enjoyed this song...

interesting choice of instruments in this song, like your other song it had a cool modulation change in it. the drums i thought could have been a lot louder and thumping with some reverb n' mastering. ya know, this song has incredible potential for being something great, you should definitely consider a remix of this w/ louder drums a wicked bass that is catchy, there was one part where an awesome melody could have just smacked you across the head and melted your face with a sick, whaling synth melody up in high octaves. like i said b4, great potential.

5/5, 9/10, and if you do a remix of this, I'd definitely download it! (just make sure you change that one synth near the quiet part in the middle) great job on this one man, keep it up!

Mr-Carrothead responds:

I can see were ur coming from, I didnt really pay attention to the drums because I wanted to make the melody stand out a bit more, but point taken

[==(Light Flow)==]

awesome ambient..

i really liked this song, it seems that you're in an ambient mood lately, and it also seems that your ambients would fit very well in a game. (the flute stuff many helps with that) hmmm, on second thought... it could have used a lot more. i realize that it is ambient and all but perhaps some faded out hi hats would do well. idk.

good song and all 4/5 and 9/10 from me, i would have rated higher, but it got a little too boring for me. keep up the good work though,

and when ever you get the chance check out my song Neon Grudge. i also have another one coming out soon if you're interested.thx.

Buoy responds:

No I'm in a constant no changing ambience wave resulting in something

Make that game good seriously

also who knows what I could add I wouldn't have submitted it if it wasn't for the friggin swede

[==(Transparent Machine)==]

great song...!

man, i really liked this, even though it was a loop it was a great one. the drums had just the right amount of reverb on them and the little shaker instrument was mastered to perfection and was used very well. this would be very fitting in a game my brother's making kinda mysterious background music.

the marimba sounding thing i thought could have been a little more diverse but it was fitting either way. the synth that swelled in could have been a little softer to fit the rest of the song. oh well.

5/5, 10/10, and perhaps one 'used in a submition' from my brother. great job on this one. plz check out my songs when you get a chance. thanks.

Buoy responds:

If he's gonna use it in a submission he's gonna use the wav right, then it loops at least >:P

tell him to use this song or I'll get angry >:(

thanks for the review dude, I'll review a few of yours a liiiiiil laters

[-:: Funky Action Beat ::-]

good first song man!

this isn't bad for your first time. i really liked it, it was some what catchy, but it would have been great if you had just added a little melody in there this chord progression is very easy to form an awesome song off of. the melody probably would have helped with the diversity. i would like to complement you on the drums! the were very good, although, it sounded like a drum loop, its better not to use those. if you're using FL studios, you can find some great drums in dance and real drum kit. i liked the bass, but, i think it would be beneficial to make it an octave lower. btw, that bass instrument had a cool modulation change in it.
this song it very good and all, especially for your first, but something to think about for future songs is mastering, if you have FL studios and are interested in finding out more about it, PM me sometime and I'll tell you all about it.

5/5 and a 9/10 from me, nice job. oh, and if you get the chance, plz check out my songs sometime. i recently submitted Neon Grudge. thx.

thnx 4 a gd review, ill take note of wat u said :D

[Ultimate Basshunter Song Remix]

cool song...

this song was very well done!! kudos to you on the mastering and such. there were some parts that seemed abrupt, example: the drums parts. there were many parts in this song that were packed to tightly together, like Maestro was saying in his review. the whole gabber part was way to random and scratchy and low quality, im sorry to say, it was also too random. and some parts were very unclear and odd sounding, scratchy . i also thought the ending was to weak for this song it should have been more dramatic.

overall this song was well put together and it was a good remix. however, some of the melodies were blocked out and didnt fit the rest of the song adaquitly.

5/5 9/10 and a future download from me. good job!

-crepth

x-Exodus-X responds:

lol we both know i didnt make that part. it was, however, well mastered, and i dont know why you said it had bad quality. it was just a bit random. the ending was deliberatley made to fade out, an abrupt ending kills most songs. the whole song had been falling to that ending since it's climax point, the post-gabber part. if you want a clearer, less muddy part, you should have read the caption and asked me for the better version. the quality had been reduced greatly along with the file size to fit newgrounds' limit. thanks for the reviews, and fives! the only parts of your review that didnt make sense were that firstly, you said we did a good mastering , but later in your review, you said the song sounded unmastered. also, you said the song sounded packed together, but then you said it was nicely put together. but im glad you enjoyed it, and im sure you would enjoy the full quality song even more! thanks again

[Duet of the Twin Moons]

awesome...!

holy crap man! your songs are amazing! they are perfect for video games! this is definitely Sword of Mana type of music. like the other guy was saying it was sadish like someone dies or leaving or arriving, or doing something!!! lol, but yeah, i thought it should have longer and a little bit more diverse but it fits its job just fine. you should have gotten rid of that little fuzzy scratchy sound in the background. great song though!!

i think the only problem you have is low publicity, go around and make reviews asking for reviews, making buddies and stuff, then your songs will do a l ot better....( that's what im doing right now)

like before, plz check out my songs when ever you get the chance. thanks
