RyeGuyHead's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[|| ChilledMasta ||]

Id hate to rain on your parade

But there wasn't really much going on in this song instrument wise, which i suppose is acceptable for the genre, but it left the song overall sort of bland.

The drums were nice. a bit repetetive, yet for the genre. You REALLY should have expanded on the riff when the drums filtered out in the beginning by throwing in more instruments with it.
I fact, most of the song consisted of just one instrument playing alone. Work on your polyphony

HouseMasta responds:

RGH, why you gotta bust balls? lol. thanks anyway for the advice, ill be sure to do what you said if i make another ambient piece

[|-Hard Binary-|]

Not bad at all

The production is definatly there...some of the instruments could have been mastered a little more though.
Great effects, nice little swing beat, good shit.

There were some dry spots, but it was overall very nice

Dj-SilenT-HunteR responds:

Yeah, i must master the song. i will wetten the dry parts too, if i find them :P
Thx!

[King of Hyrule]

that last review was a little

harsh....
But this is an overly remixed song. You threw in your won elements to te piano, s good for you. The piano needed some reverb to make it sound more realistic. It ended too soon, right when i was getting in to it...
Oh well

Wopatshki responds:

this is a review i like
its helpful, and fair

i know it should be a lil longer
i try it with reverb but i dont submit it again

thanks a lot for the review

[<KZ> Drumz N' Choir [Loop]]

why the hell not

Go right on ahead

Throw in some hi hats and pads while your at it.
I can see you making a sick little bass riff to go along with the drums.

If you do extend it, throw another choir part an octave or two higher overtop the one you have, itll sound sick

I would review more if you left me more to review.(check out my new song) ((cough*))

Kirizzle responds:

Thanks for the suggestions. And I'll go check out that new song of yours. *cough*

39 is such an unsteady number

so heres review 40.

The peaking on the intro should have been controlled a bit more, the second bar sort of overrided and made my ears hurt.
The drum fill didnt lead into anything.
The strings were repetetive
Nice voice transition, but the next synth to come in was too similar to the first.
In fact, the second part was too much like the beginning in general
My advice: stick to remixing and collabs....or keep these thoughts in mind

The effects and filters were pretty freakin sweet though

HouseMasta responds:

thanks i guess. sorry i couldnt please.

strings werent repetative, there were 2 sets and the theme varied if you listened. glad you at least enjoyed the effects and filters

[C3ntauri0n - Orchesta LOOP]

Fairness is...

what it is
I thought the beginning dragged a bit, the first four bars at least, but its trance so it will slide. Perhaps some key changes wold be in order, or at east take out the hit on the first beat after the intro or something.
The bass groove was sort of cool, wished it was longer, some diveristy, that would be key. The drums were nice.
The interlude with the vocoder was sick. But then it was more of the same.
I see room for some nic improovements

C3NTAURI0N responds:

well tnx for the revu and ill see what i can do 4 the rest of it.

[Final Ascension]

I could offer some ideas....

It started too soon, from a song standpoint, twas fine for a loop. The bass riff you ended the song with might even work as an intro. Just throw some a more basic beat with the strings in first, then elaborate the drums.

What this song needs: DEEP bassy pad, synth line(waspy short synthish, elaborated piano, some spizzazz

Cant help you with that last one....

LoneEagle responds:

Thanks for dropping by. Sorry for answering so late, maybe too late. It's been 2 years since i haven't been on newgrounds and i also had to fix/reformat my computer so i lost all my old projects but it doesn't matter. I'm starting again... slowly but still going.

Thanks for the advice and the review.

[Energy Flash]

Lets do it!

I liked the synth beat, it was something very solid to build your song around. The drums could have been tweaked a little more. Throw some FX on them, adjust the frequency of your hi hats a little. There was some nice diversity in here, switching keys and waht not. The other synth, i guess it was the melody, it sounded like a square sound either way, might have been nice with a phaser.

The bell delay had too much feedback, sort of made it muddle together. Some open hi-hats on the 3rd beat would make this song funky, but its cool as it is.

Nice job man

LoneEagle responds:

Thanks man for the good advice and comments. I'll have to be careful when using echo/delayed notes in my future work because it is something that i tend to do... i remember doing this in an older piece as well and it was mentioned to me that it was to much and created some echoing chaos.

Thanks for the review.

[cKs - Beyond the Abyss]

oh shit

break it down.
Quite build on this one. The lead that came in was stylin, but you probably should have changed its melody once the dums came in full swing again. Very funky, all the add-ons, the plucking, and polyphony of it. Quite the improovement, good job

coMpLekS responds:

Thanks homie. I worked hard on this one. I agree with you when you say it lacks a bit of diversity. Glad you liked it.

[regretamine (early version)]

Had some very nice touches

The subtle strings when the piano and rums went solo was nice, and the part after it was intense, but the drums need to get intense at the end, and not fall out to a basic beat. Throwing in the trance pad or whateverat the end could boost it up a bit too. But twas very nice and orginial

snoballandthmonyshot responds:

thanks pal, a bit of constructive criticism is what i was after when i posted this so, yeh, nice 1,will build it up at the end instead of dropping out... bo
