Darkfire96's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[ZP || True Nature]

Man im jealous.

Surprised at how many views you have within a few days.
Anyway I like how the progression is, but the lead synth....it just didn't pack enough power. The melody was superb. It truly was. But the synth hindered it. I really like the kick, but I wouldn't say its a hard trance kick. It needs to be harder. I can send a file in case you need it. The speed was too fast. Or at least I think. A Hard trance should be between 140 and 150 BMP. Anything higher or lower than that is not hard trance. Can i have the flp? Basically tweak those and an instant 10 from me.

ZachPayne responds:

Hey I appreciate the great review dude! :) Thanks for all the tips! And honestly, I didn't even realize or pay attention to my views. I didn't think I was even well known or popular at any rate lol. And sure, I'd love a hard trance kick :D . Would help me out a ton since I like to make hard trance tracks from time to time. Oh and PM me about the flp if you really want.

@ SoulreaperX

Isnt Act 2 the Twinkle Park Original? In that case i have the MIDI i created if anyone wants to use it. And to be honest i actually didnt like Sonic 3d blast due to the constant camera angle. But the idea was good back then. Never truly beat it though V.V
@ DJ Sonik
I Really enjoyed this piece. After the intro it gave an underwater type theme from it.
The kick complemented the entire song, and thats a +. I loved the piano. What was the VST? I really could use it. If possible could you send me a link or something? The effects in the song was used very well, The only thing i have to say is extend it because when i was righting this review I went through this song nearly twice. Try having it a 5 minutes to make it not seem abrupt in the ending.

Regardless i really love this song! You did warn me that it was slow, but its slow XD.
You hit the melody spot on. And the bass was awesome. I loved the 8bit sounds in it. And the filter was a great effect to use. I dont think there will be a day when I regret faving you as an artist!

[_/Stereo Love\_ [SS rmx]]

Man z3ta is awesome!

I Love this, but to be honest the best part about the song was its bass. That was probably the best thing you couldve kept and i didnt hear any. I loved everything else, but this song needed that bass. Oh well. This song is still god anyways. Sorry for not giving professional Criticism and giving an opinion.

ShootingStar responds:

Alright - I can see that, I think there was a bass, maybe just not as loud as you would like.
Thanks for the comments! :)

Sweet!

I see that this came completely from emotion. Sorry ive been gone Semore, but i had a workload of old songs that were dieing to be updated. Now about this song.
Yes i have felt this way. I Like your choice of plugin, but the piano either should've came in later, or you shouldve extended the entire song altogether because the pianos amplified the effect of the song. Now going into the emotional part of the song i have chills listening to this. I never did before, and now i do. I Think i shed a tear. I my opinion the pianos should have never come in at all, but this came from pure emotion so i have absolutely no say in this. I really enjoyed this piece and i hope to hear more.

thank you so much Darkfire =)

[One (Your Name)]

i liek it

like the guy under me said it does have a futuristic theme to it. Well not futuristic more like post-apocalypse type thing. The song seems empty a bit so add a second pad. The bass could be heavier, but it doesnt matter. it would be great if u lengthened it, but its cool as it is. Could you send me the flp Marc? Thanks in advance.

what flp?

[Knock on the Door Again!!]

Lol Happy bithday.

Because the 8th was my birthday! I had got a ps3 >.>
Its an intro, so i cant really say anything now. Finish it then i will say something.

ElectroLord99 responds:

haha nice :D happy birthday man!

[[DEMO] DJ Opaix's Dilemma 01]

So i get to help? Sweet...

Well first thing that i would say is to change this song into a hard trance. Give if a good pad. I recommend z3ta+ And i do have the files in case you need it. Second this is to change the lead to a bassline. For a song like this i imagine that a....i guess raspier sounding synth would do the job. And knock this up an octave. It feels to dark. Thats all i could think of now.

ElectroLord99 responds:

lol all this has is a beat and bass, just an idea for stuff i guess haha XD
but yeah, it would be awesome if u could help me out! :D
send me a PM

[Dj Lithorph - Iseeyou(WiP)]

Im gonna get as good as you one day!

But for now im gonna learn how to master and come up with good enough melodies. I can say that im somewhat good, but i could really use some tips for my songs. Mind coming and reviewing my New song Better Dreams? Also what plugin did u use for the lead synth. And are those vocals from a rock song? Im pretty sure i heard it before. Oh well. Anyway the pianos were perfect in the song, but the bells were kinda out of place. But i like it that way, so please dont change it. I have to admit that hearing this song inspired me to keep uploading to Newgrounds in spite of the zerobombers. Your bassline....i want it so bad...
Can you make a sample? I dont have every plugin in the world, and it would help alot if i had that bassline. When you finish this I'd recommend that you add more vocals when the song takes some time to "breathe". So like after the intense part you can have a breakdown where some really good vocals would kick in.
Well i really want this song to be finished so good luck. Also can you help me with mastering? I really am starting to need those skills right now.

Lithorph responds:

Thank you for your review. And yes ill check your stuff out.
Im really not as good as you appear to think ^^
The vocals were from an acapella pack, think it was like mutteki vocals or something. What i did was, i cut the words out and then changed the notes on the vocal to fit the bassline.
The bass is something ive been trying to master, its a pitchbass. This song isn't that well done, i will post alot better in the future as im still learning stuff.
I could help you with some stuff, but the musicmaking is all up to you. You need to really work hard if you want to be a good musician.
If you want to learn the basics of mastering , check youtube, kick / bass is low freqed, melody mid/high. Its hard, and its tough but thats the way.
But please do remember, dont master like they do on the video, mix it up, change something, just listen to your song and see whenever you've got the best mastering.
Thats about everything i can say atm.

[DJ Babokon - Elysium Universe]

Just like me.

I was in your profile and i saw that u r the same age as me, and you cant read music. So i guess you are my idol until i surpass you. ANYWAY
The track entirely is pretty good. That bassline....i want it.
The lead synth. z3ta+? Sorry, but im using that now, and everything i hear sounds like it now. I like you percussion, but in my opinion this needs slightly stronger hihats. When you filtered it did u boost the treble? Try bringing that down a bit. But those are minor tweaks. This is a good song, and i cant wait to hear more from you.
Regards...

Cool! Now there's two of us!

Idol? Wow, thanks.

The lead synth is a mix between "Libertin 2" Bank C on z3ta and modded "LD Dancelead" in Sylenth1
