Brendonian's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Attack Mode Engage (EA)]

Pretty cool (for what its worth)

I think this is a good start, but it could definitely use some work. That high pitched synth (the delayed 8th note) gets too loud and piercing a lot. Also, that hissy percussion sound is WAY too loud a lot of the time. I think you could use some more harmonization, maybe some strings. I hope you keep working on this because it sounds good so far.

superchao responds:

Yeah, I definitely agree with you. Most of this stuff was done experimenting with different filters and gating techniques, so yeah, it was basically a hit and miss run, with more misses than hits, lol. :P
And yeah, I've been meaning to add something to the effect of strings, because my original goal was to make this as ambient as possible, so I'll hopefully have that fixed up soon, lol.

Thank you again for your review, and I'm happy to recieve the advice you're giving me. :)

cluttered a bit

You have a pretty decent arrangement here, but it sounds very cluttered, and having a piano as the lead is kind weak for an orchestral song of this magnitude. The cymbals are also overused and most of the percussion is overpowering.

Good start, but it needs a lot of work

superchao responds:

Thank you for your review! :) You make valid points, and I will definitely remember them when I make another song in this style. Thanks again for your review! I really appreciate getting the feedback and constructive criticism. :)

awesome

Hardcore dude! I Love it! My only complaint is that the levels are so high it's clipping a lot.

Thanks for the Comment!

Yeah I know the sound waves are lagging, Thats because the program was crashing most of the time so I had to redo the Volume and so on, I am greatful for the score and review!

nice

Hey this is pretty cool. I think some elements need to be toned down a bit, like that backup synth...it's acting like a lead with its comparitive volume and EQ to the guitar (which Im assuming is the main lead)

XxX-WOLF-XxX responds:

Hey thanx a lot man.
Yeah, i see what your saying, i'll work on that.

Levels

Hey man...this sounds pretty cool, but you gotta fix your levels. So many things are in the lead when they shouldn't be (at least they dont sound like they should). Im not familiar with the original, but Id like to hear certain things pushed back and others brought forward...like that guitar lead and vocals.

thedwexperience responds:

yeah its kindof like i was going for a jazz metal hybrid... that is an undertaking. its supposed to be kindof mellow. read the dude below yous's coment and my reply.

and come back when it says its finished!!!

Nice!

I liked it for the most part...save for one thing: transitions were about as smooth as a car flying into a brick wall...other than that, each section had its shining moments and I LOVED those synth strings.

Spacey

Sounds like a good track to use in a space platformer designed to be oldschool...As a standalong track...eh, it needs work, but as a soundtrack for a 2d platformer in space: Thumbs up!

Frostbreath responds:

needs work? It's almost one and a half years old, i quit making music a tad while ago
