Box-Killa's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Majorgeneral's Grand Entrance]

lol

You should really make a more complex melody, not just 5 notes lol. It is repeditive, short, random. Try using the major scale. Or minor scale. Not the random scale.

fl can show you.

Majorgeneral responds:

thanks for the review

[Majorgeneral's Escape]

lol

This is very industrial. Ehhhh keep trying and you will eventually make something really good.

Try make a few melodies, a drum beat. No matter if its real simple.

Majorgeneral responds:

Thanks for the review

[Phobia (WIP)]

yo quarl the efects in this song r of the shizang!

I love the effects, they totally kept me entertained.

The melody was a bit repetitive but I didn't get bored.

at 1:30 that breakdown thing was pretty good.

But this song really is not that easy to listen to, or nice to listen to, exciting but deffinately not something I would try and relax to.

This is more like industrial, def not goth.

:D

Well good job :D

can you check this out for me ?

Quarl responds:

lol. I thought of putting the song in the ska section but decided goth would piss off less people... the song's genre is actually dnb. Dnb has had two decades to evolve into what it is today so there's no confusion as towards where I should have put the song. I just put it in goth for teh lols.

As for the repetition, that comes in to play when working an electronic dance song into a DJ set. While most dnb songs come off as 5+ minute bore-fests, when mixed properly into a DJ set a dnb track only plays for about a minute before a new song gets mixed and played. If you think this is boring then consider yourself lucky I didn't add the extra unnecessary second chorus repeat you get in all pro tracks. Note: all professional electronic dance songs follow a few main structures to make them more accessible to the DJ set.

Here... while I'm checking out your song, listen to these two tracks and compare their song structures, then consider how you would effectively mix them into a DJ set.

If you want added lols, compare those two songs structures to Alice DJs "Better Off Alone." Note the structure: introduction, relatively ambient break down, chorus, relatively ambient breakdown, then the chorus again.

[Nezumi - Becoming the void]

nice

Really like that dark piano

Could have some better instruments, other then that distortion sorta thing, that ruined the nice song.

I like the calm/dark aspect to it

:D

Good job :D

[Soldiers of infinity]

Nice kinda wierd effects

Wierd, lol, i see you were playing around with some effects, which is all good, but dont submit it to newgrounds, we have enough crap here lol

make a song using those techniques, creativity and things you learn along the way, make good songs. LD

:D

Well anyway,

nez1536 responds:

Heh, most of the songs I put on NG are 'regular' tracks, just this one is effects-based. But I get it, it might not be suitable for NG as it makes less sense without the rest of the album.

[bottle o' brass]

nice

I like that strong middle range thing that you did, nice groove. Drums were a bit lacking though, but they were wierd and groovy

nice song though, very creative and wonderful. You are on the road to happyness because your music is original.

:D

Good job :D

[MH16: Piano Dreams]

awesome

I love the sound of the piano, and the whole feel, it is sort of mellow but bright at the same time. That low sort of pad bass thing was pretty wierd but cool. I liked that nice snare panned to the left XD

Good job :D

can you check this out fro me ?

FairSquare responds:

The snare isn't panned to the left :p
Thanks for the review and i'll see what i can do for you. I cannot promise anything though, but i think i'll leave a review :-)

[{425} XenoxX]

awesome

That melody is so clean and lovely and melow, sounds nice

Sounds a bit more like tracnce

could work on the drums though, make them louder and compress the hell out of em

now can you check this for me :D thanks

Michael425 responds:

I'm glad you like it. I think it could fit in the Techno or Dance genre. Trance might be pushing it.

I lost the project file so I can't alter the song, but I do have another version with louder bass notes and kicks that I might put up.

I will give your song a listen.

Thanks for the review.
