Flash-MX's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ambrosia]

great sounds!

liked its fat feel, the bass/synth/pads etc.
had a bit of an 80s Axle Foley theme,
but extremely original
nice work on the clavinet, not an easy instrument to sound nice
excellent job!
i took only one star for some piano sounds that sounded a little cheap

9-5 here

Phishrcool42 responds:

Thanks for the review, it's always great to have some constructive criticism.

[DessertTearz]

no saw, but less whistle

the whistle seems to be the only melody, so either darken it up a bit or have its placement a little more scarce, i wouldn't use saw synth on this though, this seems to be more of a resident evil kinda track, the whistle sound is fine, just "minor" it up a bit, or cut some parts

this is a 9-5 for me

LollipopNightmare responds:

Thank you for your comment. You rawk!

[~{ Ice Caps Update }~]

yeh

beautiful transition, warm chords, well balanced between perc and synth

i give this

a 10-5, well deserved, good job!

[As Time Leaves Me Behind]

this is it

yea this is it this is good, you put some new guitar stuff in there, bass very nicely done, no complaints on this one

10-5

vvv yea, yea quit blowin' yer horn already lol

AfroShine responds:

lol, thanks.

[Alone on the road]

very cool

Reminds me of some survival horror game tracks, (SH, RE, ETC) its got that ambient yet agressive feel to it, I personally liked the style, just a lead would be nice is all

8/10 for no lead, overly repetitive
3/5

[Peaceful Oblivion]

peace..?

the whole song basically sounds disharmonious, I dont hear any relationship between the different lead parts, the drum track was ok, nothing above average, there could be something here, but make it sound like its got somewhere to go next time

6/10 for some fat lead sounds
2/5 for no harmony

killodon responds:

Thank you for the review i will work on these points in the future.

[Calix Meus Inebrians]

true

Just finished with Violence Lounge, id rather hear this, although ill disagree with piano players review here, i think if you stick some more riffs, fills, this can be pretty good

its still pretty raw as of now though

6/10 for some fast parts at the end
2/5 for now

RedEyeNorn responds:

Thanx for the review... Unfortunately, I've lost a good part of my work...

I'm sure as hell your advices will help me out, in this possibiliy of 're-writting' the music...

I'll post it here (again) when I finish it!

[Violence Lounge]

a little more specific...

I felt it wasn't good either, but heres why

1. NO drum track, when this track is clearly calling for one, begging even,
2. Sound FX at the end killed what wasn't there basically
3. Bass is so dull, uninteresting, regardless of it being a violence lounge thing, just nothing to like on the bass
4. The effects though were nice, if used right could make a good song.
5,Extremely repetitive, especially the bass, vary it somehow!

3/10 from the genre
1/5 for being halfway decent

[Melancholy [Sitar Solo]]

it is.. nice

i felt it was a little repetitive in some parts, the pitch bend was used nicely in some later parts, then overused some parts, overall was ok, the end was pretty disharmonious, question though

what patch did you use on reason? or did you use bandstand?

ive been looking for a decent sitar sound on reason

8/4

GrysonOC responds:

Umm..the one for the advanced sampler. And yeah...this was made a while ago. Not a lot of my older Reason stuff is that great.

[RC - Impeccible]

finally

some well processed drum tracks! good stuff, just would like to hear the synth and bass parts come out a little more, feels a little overpowered by the drums to me, fantastic song though, great job with the drum filters too!

10-5 here
