Redse7en's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[[FG]AreYouReady[FG]]

Kewl!

This song has what I call your "General Euro Feel" which is not much emphasis on snare or hats but more on the kick and bass going with sounds of a crowd roaring or a person singing something. Euro techno in my opinion is almost like how Earnest Hemmingway wrote his books - short, sweet, and to the point. Im going to say that this song sounds like it fits in more with techno but really its up to how you define these music genres as an artist and master of your own work.

I like very few songs out of this genre of music however I find that if I do actually like a song from this genre, I keep it on my immediate playlist. This song I can be safe to say that it will go on my playlist :) I love how the intro and outro played out. One thing I can critique about is how I wanted the main melodie to be longer and more unique but thats just me. I've never tried this genre in its true form so what I just sugguested could also butcher your song. Hope I've helped some!

wow thanks for this great review!!

hmm i think the genre is HandsUp! but who cares about this ;)

"This song I can be safe to say that it will go on my playlist :)"

YES!! :-)

yea the lead is a lil short, but that's just right for this genre.
this is a review that helps a producer to make his songs better!
thanks again!

Amazing!

I have always loved the sound of Nine Inch Nails and you seem to as well or atleast mimic their style to perfection even they could not achieve. Excellent sound track to someone looking for an industrial animation with a setting in the near future with a dystopian theme. This song reminded me of the game "Deus Ex" with suddle yet powerful flow of rythmic and highly distorted samples taking in account the need for people to listen to music now adays in stereo and not mono like some ng users still do. You've inspired me which at this point of my hobby/career of music mixing, was thought to be impossible. Keep up your great work. All I can really say to critique you is that I see alot of songs submitted very close together in reference to time. If true quality of your talent could be reached by taking some more time to tweak a song then I sugguest you try that out and see your full potiential.

dj-padman1 responds:

Thanks for taking the time to listen and share your ideas.
thanks for the NIN comparison! I feel I have a long way to go though. Deus Ex, I was hooked on that game for ages so maybe some of it rubbed off onto me ;)
I'm honoured that you've been inspired, great to hear, anything can set it off if my music can!
You've raised a very good point about the duration that a song takes getting prepared. Some songs I do slave away for a week on, some in one session. I suppse quality over quantity is always the way to go.
Well, thanks once again!

Hey!

Sorry its been so long till I got to reviewing your music but here goes. In the beginning, I found it kinda hard to get into the song cause it didn't grab my attention right from the start. To counter act this, I normally add a ton of effects and different synth lines to make everything unique then change things up in the body of the song. Your melodie rocked but I felt like it needed more body to it. Add a couple of different melodies to it and use multiple different synths playing the same melodie but only in different pitches or using different effects. The long pause got me thinking that the song was close to being over. People might hit the stop button if you leave them hanging too long so be careful. Over all I enjoyed the song but just felt that it could have been sold to me better. This is just a critique so only use the advice you like :) Keep up the good work!

Sup

Lets get things started :) I think you should play with effects some. It sounds like when I listen to it with my headphones on that its playing in mono (and mine are stereo, I checked) I obliterate this sound in my music with some stereo enhancer or flagus. Gives me an edge over the raw sounds. Some sounds were peaking a tad so you might wanna go over em a little. While I was listening to this song I could definately imagine a small beat in the background of maybe some ethnic drums doing something else. If you message me and stuff I could show you what I mean. Very good though, keep working on it and let me know when you update it :)

Happy :)

Very nice tune man! I'm loving the melodie! People will download this definately for rave parties and stuff lol. This is a True Happy Rave in my opinion :) I wish it lasted longer though and didnt have such an abrubt ending so that flash peeps can use it easier without tweaking maybe. Other than that you got everything down and I'm very proud of you! I'd really like to remix your melodie sometime and maybe mess with it a little and see what you think. I do like this song because it seems like now instead of listening to mono headphones its all stereo and you got a surround sound going. Very professional to do this type of thing which average people seem to struggle with. All the luck in the world with music man :)

Feral-Fox responds:

Another Awsome Review by Red7!

Thanks, im glade you liked it. It will be longer since this is just a demo obviously. The mono and surround thing is basicly me getting little better eqing I guess huh :p Thanks much for the review.

Nice

I love the sound of the first tune its almost like the acid sounds that are in fl sytrus or that other sound. You definately have the build up but I was expecting the song to get much harder after all of the build up. A fat drum piece would help it out. Also it seems like you have reverb and delay on all the other synths but at the end the last synth had no effects which made it kinda stand out a bit. It's up to you on how you wanna approach that but if I like to make a sound almost with no effects I still put a stereo effect on. Also watch out for certain synths. They might be able to play that certain note you want but sometimes it might not be able to play it well. All and all I enjoyed it. Great flash music.

I get ya...thanks for the review...

Liquid

All of the phaser and flanger on this song reminds me of something that deals with liquid... Sorta like a waterfall in a tropical rainforest. Overall the song is very nice. One thing I might sugguest is watching the peaking on the flangerized parts because at one point it overthrows everything. Simple drum beats that are very quiet make the listener pay attention to your melodie which in this case worked out. This song would be an excelent transitional song from one song to another. You almost could go back to this song and add something more hardcore at the end. I enjoyed it cause it gave me some nice visuals / ideas :D

~Red 7

TMM43 responds:

Thanks for your reivew Redse7en!
This reminds you of a liquid? OK! haha. I guess it could. This song reminds me of a lot of things, and yes, it is kind of like a liquid. xD
Thanks for the review!

[ES- Keep on moving [Demo]]

High voltage and powerful

I enjoyed this piece for its high voltage. Not so much the tempo but the hardness of it. It was also great you shadowed the hard stuff with that piano. Not really much I can say about for you to fix on this piece. It definately sounds like it was downloaded from a club dj but I know your stuff is origional :D Keep up the good work. This is the kind of music I enjoy. One thing I might say is try and work on that hat you got there. The treble for that kinda hurts a tad. Otherwise very nice work!

TT

You made me a sad panda today. Im dumb when it comes to classical music but if I were to choose you vs. some classical group who did music for starwars or the lord of the rings I'd choose you. Keep in touch please cause you give the best reviews I have ever received!

MaestroSorrow responds:

Thank you Redse7en. I will definatly keep in touch. You make some excellent pieces yourself, I look forward to all your works. Do keep me up to date.

Thanks for the review.

Hey

This song I agree is very nice in the beginning but once it gets in you can definately tell it's more of a midi song. Kinda takes away in a sence but still leaves you plenty of things you could come back to in the future. Origionality you have but I'd sugguest some effects and things to spice up your songs. Hope my reviewed helped. Keep working hard.

~Red 7

itsameyayo responds:

Yeah, originality is my best feature, but it does take a little to develop something from nothing. Effects? That will be noted! And the midi song part, man, that's been repeated, but that's alright. More afirmation is always nice : )

-Thanks for the review!
