DjGubkafish's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Overdose]

Beginning is very cool . Although maybe you should have kept the energy up instead of going into mellow moment .

The high pick of melody is missing I would say but the build up and rest are good . I would just add another faster pattern in the middle with different drums .

Exilious responds:

I agree completely! The melody felt really bland to me. I should've done a better job with that. I can't place what was missing. I think I'm gonna go back and fix it. I want it to sound REALLY complete. I'm glad you enjoyed it though! Thanks for the review man. ^~^

[Slow Tides]

Would work nicely in Silent hill game .

However doesn't sound aquatic to me . Feels like abandoned city or caves .

[Lullaby]

I like the mellow moments and melody is very nice . Not sure if 8-bit analog works here .

Some pads feel out of place .

Personally would prefer if it was more ambient with less drums and 8-bit .

Not bad though

[Going Away]

It could probably use another Lair to main melody .

Although it sounds like early console music the way it is .

Pretty enjoyable

[Sun Aria]

Try to progress the music a little faster . The 0:00 to 1:20 part should have taken 30 seconds .

Interesting choirs . Also I would like if there was another pattern on top of those piano/string solos

Overall I like what you did here . More unique patterns would help though .

[No Joy Here]

Your composing isn't bad at all . Seems like there might few harmonies issues because instruments don't sound alike . Just be mindful and expand your instrument bank .

I don't do orchestral music but there is nothing wrong with this aside from mixing .

PirateCrab responds:

Yeah my bank is fairly limited! Like I said below, I only had 2 days to do this. Having never made orchestral before, I'm not surprised it's so badly mixed haha. Nevertheless, thanks for the criticism. Taken on board! :)

[Sleepyhead]

I like the atmosphere but that static background . Not sure if it was intentional but It would be much better with something different like maybe rain ambiance .

MrNightVarga responds:

The static whatnow? I'm sorry, I don't hear any static, as for the rain, I thought about it but since I already used it in like three songs, kinda didn't want to overdo it. Thank you for listening and for reviewing. =)

[Rift of a Soul]

I think you have the right idea for composing but the sound quality is a bit rubbish .

I think if this was done completely digitaly it would be much better .

There is some nice feelings somewhere but again sound quality .

ShinyArmor responds:

it is all digital...
