Ryskie's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Silent prayer]

This one has an urgent feel to it. When the beat first kicks in, would be nice to just have the beat and the strings play for a few bars, but that could just be because this almost reminds of something I heard in the Matrix (I think).

Aside from a few minor sound quality things, the only thing keeping this from a 5 star rating is the flow of the melody. I find that it's not focused enough, and kind of goes off track a tiny bit. But ultimately that's personal preference on my part.

Keep it up, did a really good job on this one!

Tulvadar responds:

Thank for your time to listen to my song and to write a review. A liked your ideas and i will see to it that i put some of them to use in future songs that i create. Cheers. :D

[Patience (Ambient Loop)]

I like the mood you set with this one, very nice work on the sine synths with the volume control, definately adds depth to it.

My only critique is the clap you used has too much mid range going on it, it stands out just a little too much.

Aside from that though, it's a great loop. Keep it up!

Solfias responds:

Thanks for the review! I can hear what you mentioned about the claps now, I'm thinking about just lowering the overall volume and boosting the highs.

[<HeavyDuel>]

I like the ideas you've come up with. There are a couple moments when the sound gets a bit 'muddy' when you have the synth playing two notes at the same time that are too close to each other while in the lower register.

Overall good work though, keep it up, my suggestion is to work more on the eq and compression on your drum sounds.

Cheers!

DESHIEL responds:

Good to know. I'm still in training when it comes to mastering and those muddy parts you hear are the result of my current inability to deal with everything. :D

Cheers!

[Carefree]

I have to say this is quite a good track you've got here. It has a bounce to it, and like you said, it could be taken as happy, but I feel it also almost has a melencholic feel to it. Could see it being played in a movie, durring a scene where the character(s) are just sitting around bored waiting for something. To me this is a fantastic job because it both was pleasing to the ears, and made me think. Great stuff!

johnfn responds:

Wow, I definitely wasn't expecting someone to describe this as melancholic! However I can totally see your description, it lets me see my song in a way I hadn't considered before. Thanks for the review.
