Flash-MX's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[melow groove man]

good stuff

great balance, everything can be heard and at a comfortable volume too, great job with the keys, very cool chords there, the bass was the only thing that sounded a little cheesy, but doesn't take away from the song much, drums were nicely done

good job

10-5

groovatron responds:

thanks and i just wanted to make the bass a little more interesting =).

[Modern Japan]

japan house?

sounds like some cool japan pseudo-house track, my only complaint is that the bass starts to get pretty distorted around 1:15, and at higher-volume becomes unaudible (the song's bass)
my advice: tone down on the distortion some, keep it but scarcely, so its like a spice
cool shamisen riffs there though

8/10 for distortion and some cool house chords
3/5

liger-030 responds:

thanks for pointing this out, i'll fix it soon.

[ProtcentA - Criminals]

been to tha dogg pound?

sounds a lot like something out of the '90s in California, the chronic-lead is what does it for me, original track for the most part, the bell/worm lead is a little overdone on some parts, but not to a really bad point

good instrumental, but could use some rapping/lyrics/scratching

9/10 for the old school style
5/5

protcentA responds:

thanks ya,california fo sohu ;)

[Metal Mario's Gone woodlike]

cool melody

but the drums kill it over, and over trough the song, if you bring down the volume on them or lessen their "abundance" on the track, it would be good, the drums are also out of sync with the counter-melody

7-10
3-5

BowserThedestructive responds:

drums ya they do kill it..but it sounded cool to me for awhile in V3 ill have no drums or alittle bit of drums but lowerd in volume and a "MAIN TUNE" of the song take over

[Wave of Ice (Demo)]

well balanced

the sounds (unlike some others here on ng) are well balanced, i.e. the bells don't kill the synth with high-freq, well done for a demo, 9/10 for the lenght though, sorry, but if your final is like this with some bass, its a def. 10-10

9/10 for lenght
5/5 for balance/mix

Saxturbation responds:

Yeah my final will have some bass and it took FOREVER to balance the sounds just like I wanted.

[Madhouse Blues]

good guitar

the guitar playing was great the whole song, just needed some drums, woulda made this track epic really, wouldave loved some more pitch bend on the highest parts, squeels

9/10
5/5

CompleteSilence responds:

Thanks! Ya... I should have used the drum machine on my pedal. And pitch squeals hmmm... a good idea!

[Forest Fire]

pan much?

good for being and industrial track, although could use less of the panning, after a while can drive one crazy

8-10
4-5 for some insane guitarish sounds

Stickfire responds:

Thanks. It is really hard to follow when you have headphones on because of the panning. I'll admit to that. Thanks for the positive feedback.

[Hazel Eyes In Full Bloom DEMO]

deus ex

excellent track, very deus-ex sounding (if you've played it, you'll notice it has the same style as some of the fight sequences), however your piece is original, liked the synth intro at 1:28, keep it up!

cant wait for the full version!

10-10
5-5

DJ-Draken responds:

I've heard of it, but never played it. Sounds cool.
And thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed this, especially since it's just a demo and such. I'll try hard to work on a full version soon enough =)

[wicked mind]

random

very random, yet it all makes sense
however
with the skunk/snake randomizer
this thing is incredibly trippy

9/10
5/5

cnshadow responds:

That was the point ^.^

[Phoozle-SNow]

cool

i like the 8-bit kinda remix with it (if thats what you were going for), well thought out track

10/10

5/5

phoozle responds:

Haha, not really. But thanks for the review :P
