DarkEpiphone's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Karco - Cycles - WIP]

Good stuff

This is a quality track. the lead melody/arp should change though.

Good overall production. I like the strings part.

Karco responds:

The melody/arp is an uncertain thing I'm still working with - and then leads aren't my strong point anyway. :P It's something subject to change as the song progresses.

Thanks for the comment. :)

good song bad quality

If you can get a more realistic guitar simulation vsti or use a real guitar, that would help. The piano sounds a bit flat. The melody and the music is good just work on quality.

Keep your head up

The song had a nice theme but not all the instruments fit well together. A few of the notes between the different melodies being played simultaneously clashed especially the baseline. Ur probably new to the whole makin music thing, this is good for someone just starting to make music. keep your head up and continue doing what you enjoy... makin muzic :D

Honestly I get 4's 5's and 3's voted on all my submissions and this one isn't the BEST one I subbmitted but I made the instruments clash together at some points in order to show some symbolism in the whole "Across the Planet" Thing. he REAL song is like 45 minutes with all kinds of stuff in it but I did not sub it to newgrounds. =D

Quick Tips to a song with potential

-The melody leads and the whole theme to the song was great
-See if you can get the song from being all mashed together by learning a few simple mastering techniques
- get some better quality drum samples. or it may just be the quality of the song thats making the drums sound flat. By quality i don't mean the bitrate.

catchy

really catchy song. a million times better than the first one you ever made. it would have been nice if there was a keychange somewhere in there. where everything went a few notes lower. i love the slow part of the song. what kick samples did you use and what plugin did you use for your synths, basses, and pads. please... pleeasse msg me back. this song is wonderful :D

[first techno]

cool first song

i rated this keeping in mind this is the first techno song. The intro is pretty weak and the lead is very repedative and the bass isnt allways playing the right notes and sounds fakish. i'm gonna check your other songs maybe they are better :D since this is your first.

[The Prototype]

its pretty good

one of the better songs i've heard in some time from NG artists. the kick is a little weak though. i like how your songs are very unique.

5/5

check out my latest song The Epiphany and tell me what you think.

[Test Me]

its alright

very repedative and has an overexadurated kick, in the sense taht you turned up the volume on it way too much. the choice of synths and bass isnt too good either. lower the volume on your kick and maybe tone it up a bit by adding a snare on it or find a totaly new kick sample to use. can picture this being transformed into a good song but it would be better if i could hear id :D. keep working hard and try to study other peoples music and see what you like about it and incorperate their ideas in your songs.

p.s. check out my new songs (pwnology & The Epiphany) maybe it'll give u some ideas.

[Love Complications -Piano Only]

pretty good

this would have been an extremely awsome little song if only it had been better quality. its still very good.... kinda sad yet still inspiring and positive. keep up the good work.

[E-Xploration]

ok

this isnt bad. the beginging was great but it just kept going i thought the whole song was gonna be like this. but i gave it a chance and then it got pretty good. your kick was kinda weak however. you should definatley continue to work on this song it a shot at being really good. remember that you song must appeal to its audiance therefor don't keep em waiting so long. i suggest you shorten the begining. anyways its a pretty good song keep up the good work.
