Dj-GST's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Digesting Earth]

Good but a little too simple.

This was good, I liked the intro with the fading in and such.

The synths were good and suited the mood of the song.

A few things though, the start was good, nice and varied, but then the song took a very repetitive turn. The rest of the song was basically the same thing, looped.

The drums could use a bit more variation, they sounded pretty well the same throughout as well.

To make this sound fuller and less plain, you could add some additional effects and instruments as well as some pads, transition, and a pumping buildup.

Not bad for NG house, but could use a few improvements. This will turn out to be a great song!

[Hou5Music]

Pretty Good

This was good, and had a nice atmosphere to it.

I liked the part starting at 0:44, but after that it started to get quite repetitive.

In some parts it seemed to simple, and could have used some more synths/instruments to spice it up a bit.

I liked this. It was pretty good.

yeah I've gone back and worked on it some. I might re-upload sometime.

[Space Station Pause Screen]

Hmm

This was pretty good. The atmosphere and synths in this live up to the title.

I would have liked this more if it had been a bit faster and a bit more upbeat, and if the drums had come in a bit earlier.

This really would be great pause screen/menu music. I'm sure someone will use it in their flash.

[<EagleGuard> Project X]

Nice and upbeat.

Quite an upbeat and happy song, I like that.

A few things though,

I didn't like a few of the synths, they took away from the song and seemed out of place.

This would sound better with a harder kick. It was very soft and was unrecognizable in some parts.

Some faults, but overall good.

EagleGuard responds:

Oh well, everyone has their own opinion. I think making the kick louder would completely ruin the song, to be honest. The synths have been mentioned before, I'll think about it.

Thanks for the review =)

[Stride (Mans0n)]

A little repetitive.

The synths and effects used in this were quite good, and made this sound like an authentic House song.

The drums were quite repetitive, along with the melodies. With a little variation this will be a very good song.

Mans0n responds:

a 6? really... I don't think you listened to the whole song.. because the drums do change and so does the melody.

But ohh well..

[Demolition- MYD_Boi]

yeah

this was really good man. keep up the good work.

[Paradise Man]

haha good

great melody, i kinda recognize it but i don't know from where...

nice and fast paced, the drums were average, but the piano was good.

nice synth used for melody, i always love supersaws.

[Parasomnia]

....

well, this would sound more like hardcore if it was faster, harsher, etc.

i'm not trying to compare this to a professional song, but here is a great example of hardcore and will give you a good idea of tempo, synths, melodies, progression, etc.

Mellow Moenie Mauwe by Bodylotion

on the right track though man.

cky12qxz responds:

Thanks for the tips, mate.
On my next hardcore track I'll make it faster and more distorted.

[[GF]6-LiL-EggZ[GF]]

fucking awesome

i fucking love this. you are awesome. i must listen to the original now.

you made my day man.

[Destiny_Eletric [Box-Killa]]

Quite good

I enjoyed this. The drum patterns were good, and everything was mastered quite well.

It was a little repetitive, and I didn't really like some of the synths used.

Sounded alot like Psytrance is some parts.

I liked this man. Keep up the good work.
