ThePal's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Road Block]

It's good to see that you're on Newgrounds now as well, I've given you a scout. I hope you'll get the exposure! ^^

Thanks, buddy! ^_^

[Timed Out]

The bass that kicks in at 0:17 could be more refined, to let the listener know that this is where it begins.
0:32 the lead is very catchy, but maybe a tad too loud compared to the rest?
0:51 I love the background leads/bass here, how they play so well and stereo out. Great job!
1:05 Nice transition, worth a good mention!
1:20 I'd wish for some more reverb on that lead here, but that might as well just be a personal preference.
1:40 The noise synth FX here is amazing, very creative and fitting! The disharmonies here at this part doesn't really appeal to me as much as in the other parts, but that's just me.
2:30 The part here could as well just be the start of a new song. You get it back well on track, though!
3:35 The main lead here and the cutoff play is absolutely marvelous. You should be proud of this part. :)
4:20 #BlazeItHurr, Back on track again, good transition.
5:15 same as with 0:32.
6:10 A fine outro, no remarks here.

Overall:
The lead is as said earlier a tad loud, but also tend to screech a bit, I'd maybe put some minor flanger/chorus/cutoff to it, to let it be less sharp for the ears.
Else you're very creative with the melodies and you work them well together.

Best of luck with the contest, we're in the same bracket! :D

TheSpacePunk responds:

Wow Ty ThePal!

0:32 (and 5:15) : Yeah I know, I did it that loud because every music I made, sounds too "flat" on speakers, compared to headphone. ^^ That what I learnt when doing final mixing.

0:51 : Thank you ^^

1:05 : yeah, but, it was an error when placing notes (for the chords) x) Each time I "failed", It's sounds good x)

1:20 : Now that you tell me, I agree!

1:40 : so hard to make it very noisy but not too much.
In fact, it's the bass ^^ with some secret effects of my recipe!

2:30 : I often do "2 (pretty short) musics" in 1, It's my procedure ;) (sometimes, 3 in 1)

3:35 : I am :p

4:20 : Ty ^^

5:15 : Yep, but did you hear the piano and other pads plays background?

6 :10 Ty :)

Overall : I really appreciate it, thank you for your review so detailed!
And obviously, big thank you for the almost 5 stars!

[Electric Lullaby]

I'd wish the vocals were a bit more clear, could maybe be helped with some backing noise on it?

The rest is absolutely marvelous. Very catchy and has some creative approaches. Good luck with the contest, we're in the same bracket! :)

TheMoebiusProject responds:

Thanks, Pal! Yes you are right, it still has lots of space for some work but its not bad for just 2 days of work, I think jaja. Same bracket, are we? Then...LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!! :D!

[(NES) Gothic Quest]

Some great 8-bit right there!
It works well all-together, I especially like the drums. Gives a great feeling of the whole atmosphere. :)

GamekrazzyProduction responds:

haha Glad you liked it Pal! Working on 8-bit styling "Gothic Heart" as well. :D Also working on some more 8-bit songs for this project!

[Gothic Heart]

Lovely chord play right here, great stuff!

The only thing that was a little out of place is how rough the low EQ are on the bass voila-thingie. If it was a little! bit lighter, it'd feel more whole , and not too rough in my opinion.

Keep up the great work! :D

GamekrazzyProduction responds:

haha thanks Pal, but it's a Cello, not a voila. ;)

[Gothic Quest]

Very halloween'esque. I like it!

Lovely play with instuments as well, you should be proud!

GamekrazzyProduction responds:

haha! Thanks Pal!

[[Ao] sketch #22 (piano)]

Lovely piece right here!

[Flutterwonder [Acoustic Cover]]

The guitar sounds crispy and clear, point up there. :)

Like Seprix said, I'd wish the lyrics would be more clear, but I myself don't know how to master those yet. Search it up somewhere on the web, I should do the same. :)

The flute is incredible, I love it, ONE MORE!

The "aaaah" at 1:44, it's alittle sad that it's autotuned, but oh well. :)

Also, the voice getting put over at 2:29 is too loud in comparison to the rest of the mix, you should (as said before) find a way to master this so it fit with the rest or leave it out, in my opinion.

Everything said is me trying on constructive critism, I'm sorry if I pushed some bad buttons. :)

NyxTheShield responds:

Nah dude that what are reviews for dont worry hahahahaha

1:44 clips were touched a bit with melodyne (like everything) but nothing big, it still sounds pretty good (what i had to do is move the different clips up and down, i only recorded the C note Hahahahaha) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/93823550/Do.wav

Thanks for the feedback ^^
