Steven-Polley's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[-ganon95- Basshunter DOTA Remx]

Every single one of your songs

Sound very midi-ish. There is no originality in them what-so-ever. 4/10 for the drums, automation and delay.

I recommend you learn how to patch some synths. Trust me, your songs will sound so much better, because you can have a sound in mind, and just create it. Because I'm not going to lie, your patches don't go good together, they're presets. And the mixing is god awful. I would check out some EQ tutorials, and effective reverb etc... (after you learn how to use a simple subtractive synth).

Remember, reviews are supposed to be constructive, so I focused entirely on the negatives.... BTW, I'm a huge fan of Basshunter.

2/5

[Uptown (Loop)]

Nice job

Very legit sounding, I can see it being used in a lot of flash projects actually. The only problem I see, is that the bass is very rumbly. Almost a constant hummmmmm. Which has no energetic "uptown" impact on the audience (me) really.

djInTheDark responds:

It was ment to a pad more than anything else honestly.

Thx for the review,

[B0UNC3 is a Pirate]

Weak bass in 2nd half

The entire first half was epic, and the build up, but it led to disappointment. The bass is very wimpy in the second half. It could be potentially that your kicks are too snappy, and the bass isn't being played on 2nd 1/4 notes usual, there is still a gap there? I don't know. It just didn't present as a fully finished track.

"Nothing much to say except it isn't finished. And as usual anything that isn't done mixingwise is turned off.

Things I will fix;
Lead melody, Lead sound, Bass sound, Kick EQ, Mixdown and possibly a quick mastering session."

I don't know. It just didn't present as a fully finished track.

It isn't lol. Kick too snappy? Noway :P I already adressed all your points in the description XD

[Khuskan - Fifteen Seventeen]

Freaken amazing

You really nailed Justice's style! I like it! Sorry I don't have anything negative to say, but I loved it all just because it's so much like Justice!

[XENOXX - Return]

Quite Full of Awesomesauce

You used a TE- sample at the very beginning lol!

:D:D

My headphones broke also :( unfortunately.

Anyways, I really like the drums, but the one thing that sort of bothered me a bit is that the drum pattern changed so abruptly at 0:38. It almost seems like there should be some sort of filler in there or something, I don't know... :S

Anyways, can't wait for more!

[We Are Lost (full Vocals)]

Pretty noice

I usually listen to house, and this is no exception.

Since it is 11:22 AM I am not going to give a full review for I am not tired.

Alright, first off your kick seemed a little bit... thin. Like it had very little low end to it. It wasn't *thumping* enough.... you know? House kicks need to especially be thumpin' Nothing that a little careful multiband compressor couldnt' fix.

The hats, I loved personally, they were so clean, the whole way through, even as you started bringing in more and more sounds as the song progessed.

I'm not a huge fan of the ambient-house stuff, more so the stuff full of action, but for what it was it was good.

The vocals were 1337. Not even kidding. They did seem a little out of place, especially with a higher voice, but for what they were it was great.

Good job!
