RyeGuyHead's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Zelda OOT Ranch - Orch. Loop]

Yes, this is good indeed

Its nice to hear musical talent put to use. You should have let off on the strings at the very end, for a better loop. Or repeat it one more time, letting some of the other instruments just traill off until just the acousitc guitar was there. Its a great song, Im not going to lie, and i wish to know how you made the sounds, how do you say it, sound AMAZING. Good job...

Khuskan responds:

Don't thank me for the sounds, thank reason. Thank me for the compositional element :-)

[°°Rainy Days°°]

Dude

You could realy improove immensely by switching your bassline up in the song. Not just the pattern of the notes, but the notes themselves. You're a keboardist too, formulate a new chord structure. I used to do what youre doing now all the time too, you really just have to make a concious effort to figure out when the song starts getting repetitive, as this one did, and make changes accordingly. Im only saying this, because it apperas to me you have mastered everything else that comes with making music. I have taken your words of advice into consideration as well, and i can see how superior sounds really just add everything to a song

Whirlguy responds:

Yeah, i had some trouble making this song. I know what you mean, im having trouble with that and try to improve it. It makes me happy to hear my reviews help people, i shall take your words into consideration as well(:
thanks for the review(:

Sweet cross-genre

But do you think you could mix up the bassline a little. The instruments and everything else built on eachother superbly, but the bassline made it get so damn repetitive that it grew hard to listen to. Drums were pretty sick though. Good job, but try and diversify a little more

Waterflame responds:

did it. ty.

[FTT(Ev!LM!X)]

of course i will look at it

You def used a preset sample from the demo version...im going to have to take some points off for that. Sort of makes me wonder the authencicity of the whole work. It sounds really cool though, even if it is mixing, you did a good job. Turn up the claps a little bit and add some reverb, it would make it sound really nice.

E-S-F responds:

Yea, i sorda had to use some sounds from the song im remixing...

[TheComet-NGCS "Intro"]

No but seriously,

I dont want to do this project if its going to be generic techno-dance. Just thought id throw that out there. Its not a bad song, and everyone will be able to build on the song pretty easily. Good start

TheComet responds:

rye, this is a very generic and basic sounding song since what I want people to do is take this and turn it into their own song with their own style and genre. I made this like this just to act as a starter to the project, because making a complex starter would probably be a bit of a deterrent for new people (based on past performance/failures lol)

[Just Smoke]

i get the god damn picture

i will take a bong hit after this, jesus christ. The beat wasnt bad, but the "just smoke" was girly and annoying. The strings sort of sucked too. Improve damnit

KAMZA responds:

dude
i liked it
if you didnt dont coment keep it simple with
"It wasnt Bad"
Fuck up

[FBX1 - Escaping Winters G]

Its very nice

The bells get a little too repetive, I would have gotten rid after a while, or justy have htme play the bassline, like you did. The drums are not loud enough, and they need more hi hat. But it is nice, and if you keep working, I can see you getting very good at what you do

Flashburn responds:

Hey thanks I appreciate your constructive review, and I will take your words seriously when I work on my next song

[Fillall-*+Heaven*+* Angel+*]

i feel bad for you

top 5 and no reviews. This song was pleasant to listen to. the main synth was too basic...i think you would have been better off having the short synth act as a bass and throw another melody overtop the song. The plucked pattern you used was pretty nice. Not a bad song at all. Bottom line, basic but nice

fillall responds:

hah, well... thanks for the review. Just to tell you, almost all the songs that i have submitted, i made over two months ago. And i just thought id submit them into newgrounds. I really dont see how my song hit the top five, but it happened. So cool. i have to start submitting new stuff, which i will very soon. So again, thank you for the review. Oh, and your music rocks.

~fillall~

[Thunder Storm]

I tend to stay more toward the instrumental rock

But I must say this kicks ass. This is all you? You layered well. I dont know enough about guitar to critique any of your riffs and whatnot, however i do plan on learning. Towards the end you had a little too much going on...when the double bass goes off. It got just a little choppy. The solo really wasnt loud enough. as far as i can tell, it was good, you should crank it up. It ended a little abruptly. I would have faded out the solo or just closed it off better

GoreBastard responds:

Thanks mate! Yeah, it's all me and my drum program. I always have a problem getting the solo's at the right level. It's something I should work on, but I focus more on the background music more than the solo's.

Anyway, cheers for the review mate.

[Sphere O' Rucklos(3min54secs)]

I must say that has happened to me too

Very crazy.....i would critique it instrument by instrument, but i have no idea whats going on. Nice effects with the delay. I would probably cut out the gritty hit type thing when the drums arent going...it sounds fine all together, but alone its....strange.

AdmiralConquistador responds:

lol, is it really that crazy? And no! I like the gritty hit type thing! poo on you Mr. Head

P.S. the 4 year old in me got the best of me there. Forgiveness, please.
