TaintedLogic's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[This Meeting-FYP^^preview]

I like the climactic nature of it as well as the structure. The effect at :08 seemed a little random and unnecessary, though, and the instrument at :17 was a little too penetrating and harsh-sounding for my tastes. It's not bad, though, considering it's a work in progress. This could make a pretty cool full-length track. You should keep working on it! ;)

aevidal88 responds:

thx yea definitely still in the works. The intro is a lil harsh i know. I hand made the rythm synth which im finding to be quite fun now these days. thx for the encouraging review. means a lot! : )

[Minotaur's Labyrinth]

I love the mood and instruments, especially the one at :53. It got a little repetitive at times, but I still love the harmonies and suspenseful atmosphere to it. The ending was pretty cool, too. Nice work! ;)

GamekrazzyProduction responds:

Thanks for taking the time to review!

[I Miss You]

I like the mood at the beginning. The piano was cool, and the beat and bass really added a lot to the piece as a whole. I liked the transition at :51. It felt a little repetitive at points, and I'm not sure I liked the instrument that becomes prominent at :58, but I liked the part at 1:32, and I think the title really reflects the mood of the piece well. Nice job getting across that sense of longing! :D I also like what you did with the percussion later in the piece, and the ending was good, too. Nice work, BlueOceans! ;D

Everratic responds:

I disagree with your criticisms, but thankyou for the review! I really like all the instruments used in the song. It didn't feel repetitive to me at any part of the song.

[Song Preview 4]

I like how that mid-range bass almost sounds like brass at times. The beat was cool, and it loops really well, but that sweeping/pulsing transition noise got a little annoying. I'm interested to see where you go with this one. Keep at it, BlueOceans! ;)

Everratic responds:

Thankyou for the review! I will most likely change the mid range bass. And I will make the sweeping/pulsing instrument much lower and it will not play for the entire song.

[Touhoushinki]

The piano was instantly engaging, and I love the beat and climactic nature of it. I thought the instruments and melodies were really good, but you overused that sweep and crash a bit. The harmonies and mood were great. It's well-structured and smooth-flowing. The ending was cool, too. It really left a feeling of suspense and apprehension in the air, which I liked. Keep up the good work, Malifex! ;D

fxarchive responds:

I didn't notice the use of sweep/crash until I read your comment >.< When I make stuff everything just kind of flows together and I can't tell if anything sounds weird or overused until someone points it out to me

Thanks for the comments ^^

[Sequence]

Hell yes! >:D The build-up was great, as it always was, and I love the changes you made at 1:01. I love the instruments and structure and transitions and mood. The piano was a nice touch at around 1:30. It added a lot of chill relief to the energetic nature of the rest of the track. I love the melody at 2:14. I also appreciate how you varied it again at 2:44. The outro was pretty cool, too. Overall, just fantastic work! :D Keep it up, Khrossfire! ^^

Lockyn responds:

YEAH! YEAH! YEAH! Hello TheDoor, I still gotta review your newish stuffs... damn I am lazy xD I will get to it, I promise! Thanks so much for the reviews, and I'm glad you enjoyed the changes I made ;3 hopefully I did the WIP justice! THANKS THANKS THANKS!

[Dangerumba!!!!!]

Some of the instruments seemed a little too penetrating and harsh at first, and it could've progressed a little faster earlier on in the piece, but once the beat came in it was really energetic and intense! :D I like the structure and transitions, especially at 1:01, as well as the frantic synths later in the piece. It loops really well, too. I think you've convinced me to play this game. When does it come out? :D

bluebooblue responds:

I'm glad you like it!! and I'm happy it loops well too xDD
I did what you told me!
This track isn't for the game tho, but it's a lot like the ones i'll be making next, I'll use your advices too!

This track was a little gift I made for dangeru.net cause they're nice people and I just felt like it haha!

Thanks!

[Rainbow Spell Remix]

I liked the melody, although it got a little busy at :30. The instruments are cool, and I liked the transition at :29, but you seem to overuse the effect at :26. I really liked the variation at 2:06, although that melody instrument sounded a bit too harsh and loud at that pitch. The song seemed to lack much of an intro or outro as well. It's good to hear a song from you again, BlueOceans. You hadn't posted in a week or two, which is a long time for you! :) I'm looking forward to hearing some more of your original work. ^^

Everratic responds:

Thankyou for the review. I posted 2 other songs in the last week, If your following list is too big, it's possible you didn't see them. I do overuse that effect at :26. I like it a lot but I will use a different one in my next song which will probably be dubstep. My headphones broke so I have to use super cheap ones for now, so sorry about the harsh melody. I probably didn't notice it with these headphones. Im glad to see one of your reviews again :)

[-The grand sea remix-]

Very catchy and cool. :D I love the instruments and melodies! I thought the transition into 1:15 could've been a little smoother, though. It certainly is very blissful and upbeat, however. Perfect for a videogame! ^^ Perhaps the melody could've used a bit more variation, but at the same time I like the structure as it is, and the outro felt very conclusive, which I liked. You should make trance more often, Waterflame! :D Btw, may I ask why you didn't enter NGADM this year? I was looking forward to seeing what you would make for it. Anyway, awesome track! Looking forward to your next album! :)

Waterflame responds:

Thank you! and thank you for the constructive criticism :) I decided not to enter cause i have so many projects going on this year, both for companies and for my own sake. So i figured it would just stress me out on top of it all to join this year. Ill apply for sure next year tho, if there is a next year! :)

[F Trance V2]

I like the instruments and the mood. The transition at :23 was way too sudden, though. How you distort those instruments is really cool, however. The effect at :49 seemed really random and out of place. You seem to struggle with transitions. Might I recommend using builds/sweeps/crashes? Other than that it's pretty good. I would've liked to see some more variation, but it does loop pretty well and is pretty catchy and all. Keep at it, man! ;)

XxSwissNinjaxX responds:

Im still new as shit to fruity loops so any information is good information, and yeah i was having second thoughts on the effect at :49 but like you inferred im not great at transitions. I don't exactly know how i did all the effects in this song its all just trial and error from me messing around with everything, cheers.
