[Key to the City]

Awesome make

The piano is very nice and blissful. The electric static and small amount of voices I slightly hear makes it sound and feel a bit like a Kingdom Hearts song actually. The synth and bass add to the good song. The drums come last but make it very good with their short and upbeat sounds.

The way the song flows together is good and makes you feel a bit better strangely. I actually could see this being more than likely used in a video game as a theme for a cut scene/character/ or simply an area beat to enjoy as you explore world and the such.

Overall, a very nice and blissful piano beat that incorporates other sounds to make it sound really nice and soft toned.

Thanks for the review

[Protagonist (DEMO)]

Beaitful....

I have to say, I thought this was rather nice sounding actually. The guitar riff is actually rather soothing and calming. Also makes you feel very sad actually. Then again it is about a hero who saves people. Your voice also sounds very nice as well so that turned out quite well for your case.

The guitar sounds pretty good overall though. Also liked the vocal breakdown with multiple voices as well. Like how it just makes you feel like you should be out saving and helping something you like a lot.

Overall, creative and nice.

[-Fuck Me-]

Pretty good

However the intro was a slow start, could cut off the few seconds of silence at the start. Also slightly disappointed at the lack of guitar distortion here as most grunge songs have them. This sounds like a mix of country and soft rock to me actually. Your voice sounds like someone doing a sex commercial which is ironically one of the few cool things about this song.

The guitar riff was very nice and I enjoyed that a lot. The lyrics were pretty good as well. Sounds like someone is having a rough life. The bass is barely hearing but most of the time no one can ever hear the bass in a song sadly. The drums were not that bad either though.

Overall, a pretty nice song so great work here. Just make sure if you put it in grunge that it has a good grunge feel to it.

I didn't realize I hadn't responded O_O

Yeah it would be cool if it was possible to specify the genres better here.. But I consider this grunge, only it would be cool if you could put "Acoustic - Grunge". ..Country? :D

The sex commercial comparison was hilarious :DD I guess singing with a deep voice always kinda makes it like that. Listen to Faith no More's RV for instance, he sings about a fat guy sweating on a couch but it still sounds like he's selling you strap-ons.

I'm shit at mixing bass but learning, slowly.. the problem is that how you hear the bass depends on the listener's sound reproducer too..

Thanks for the review, finally!

[i9incher - i hate you]

Very good

The quality of this song is very nice and I like how I get a really nice rave feel from it as well so this is turning out to be a sweet song to my ears as well.

The drums, bass, and synths make this all come and flow together as one incredible piece of work that just blows your mind away again as usual. You have yet to let me down on your work as they are all freaking great to me.

Really enjoy how it just gets you pumped up and makes you feel great as well even when it lowers a pitch and adds the unce to it. I have no idea why but this song just makes you feel like a winner of some kind.

Overall, excellent piece of work.

haha I am glad you are a fan of my work. for a guy who reviews a ton of submissions to have you actually remeber who I am is a great honor I have to say. thanks and I am glad you enjoy my stuff and I will continue to make more songs in the future.

[El Fudge - Ascendo Tuum]

Pretty basic

I have to say that I started out expecting something awesome but it is just a drum sample with some clicking sounds and the slow bass build up was alright though. I think the drums should have gone in more of a pace of four fast hits followed by three fast hits, four fast hits, then 2 slow hits and kept repeating itself like that.

The synth, and bass were pretty mediocre as well. I was expecting something a bit cooler but sadly you let me down. I think if you changed up the drum beat and made the song a bit cooler and faster it would be a lot nicer.

Overall, good luck should you ever decide to redo this song.

Syztm responds:

You're right, it is a pretty basic track, and I should have one some variation in the drums. Like I said, I guess laziness got the upperhand here.
Thanks for the review :)

[Hackd Station Ii W/mcmao[nc]]

Pretty weird

I notice that this hip hop song like most other hip hop songs on Newgrounds seem to have a problem with voices. I have no idea what it is but it always sounds like the voices are slightly mixed with using a good mic and a bad mic, really doubt it but that is what it feels like.

The back beat I hear is rather sweet. Sounds pretty good there though so good work there.

The lyrics are pretty good and I enjoy the video game references that are made in almost every stanza. Pretty cool.

Overall, very good overall.

[ECHO - Faith WIP]

Pleasant

I enjoy how this has a very soft yet pleasant tone to it. Starting off kind of slow yet happy in a strange way with other soft instruments soon joining in the song and making it very nice as well.

The piano, violins, and drum sounds are all pretty soft and soothing on the ears and make you feel nice.

I kind of get a feel as if I were walking through the woods and noticing a leaf fall on my shoulder. I look up and notice that spring has arrived yet no one cares that I am standing there. People walk by on the city street without noticing as well.

Overall, a very nice tune but it gets cut short and loops which makes it kind of sad.

"I enjoy how this has a very soft yet pleasant tone to it. Starting off kind of slow yet happy in a strange way with other soft instruments soon joining in the song and making it very nice as well."

It's good that you felt a mix of emotions in the song, since thats basically what i aim for in most cases.

"The piano, violins, and drum sounds are all pretty soft and soothing on the ears and make you feel nice."

I've got East West's awesome quality to thank for that :D

"I kind of get a feel as if I were walking through the woods and noticing a leaf fall on my shoulder. I look up and notice that spring has arrived yet no one cares that I am standing there. People walk by on the city street without noticing as well."

Interesting way to describe it. I like it when people come up with scenarios of match my songs since i always try to involve some kind of a storyline in the whole piece.

"Overall, a very nice tune but it gets cut short and loops which makes it kind of sad."

Don't worry, the full version won't be short :P

Thanks for the awesome review!

[S.U.I.A-Raptor]

Good balance

The intro is cool and I like how it has those African sounds implemented into it to give it a more weirdly spiritual feel to it which is pretty cool as far as I am concerned. The little sounds matter just as much as the big sounds which seems to be something you did well.

However there is still one thing I am wondering. Almost all the dubsteps I have heard as of late are incorporating that deep "wah wah" sound. What is up with that?I still love this song but I think that sound is starting to get a bit overused don't you think?

The bass, drums, and synth all sound very nice though so I am enjoying those a lot.

The song kind of tells a weird story as if one was attempting to escape from a facility of some sort.

Great work.

[NGHH KO4 - Exceptid vs Gloine]

It is pretty cool I guess

The intro with gun fire was a bit interesting I suppose but I came to hear a cool beat actually. After about twenty seconds I get my wish.

The lyrics are pretty nice as well. Very harsh but he sounds like he has a good future in the record industry if you puts that much soul into every song he does as well.

The back beat, drums, ghost feel, bells, and bass line were all pretty good. This is actually a very nice versus song so great work here.

Overall, a good versus song but I really have no idea which person was better as they were both that good. D:
