pr0-pr0's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Random Glitchstep]

not bad, loops very well.

Pissomatik responds:

:D Thanks for the input. Word of caution. Hits a tad too hard in headphones but sounds straight on a proper surround sound setup.

[God Complex]

It needs to be shorter and loop-able. Definitely drop the intro lead in, we don't need 7 bars of a kick if it's just going to turn into... the same kick with a hihat.

Minus a few flourishes this is pretty much an unchanging kick going on for 10 minutes... seriously?
Not to be harsh but it's not really usable as a beat, and its not really a song to listen to either.

Also there's not much discernible syncopation, which is pretty important for beats, or so I've been told.

vince-galaxy responds:

This beat isnt actually 10 minutes. There's something wrong with my Newgrounds. I think its a glitch or something. My songs are all less than 4 minutes, but its labeled as 2x longer. If you skip through it, it extends the song. You just kind of have to let it go without interruptions. That is until I fix the problem.

Further more, thanks for the constructive criticism. Not used to making rap beats yet haha

[Boundless Rage [Freestyle]]

You sound too subdued, especially for high bpm free-styling. The song is called Boundless Rage so show us that anger.
Also, even the best rappers muddle their flows in a feestyle, but it should sound like you are trying to hold your speed back to match the song, not desperately keep up with it.
Try recording your lyrics first with absolutely no beat or accompaniment. Get in tune with your own rhythm and flow, in hip hop your words should be dictating the beat, not the other way around.
Also, you sound like you're worried about bothering the neighbors. If you want to rap, fuck your neighbors and let yourself go.

Carefoot responds:

its 4am and yeah i agree with what your saying but, no I do not want to rap lol, i prefer dancehall/grime yeah?
Edit: I was attempting to keep my room mate from waking up. spoiler they slept!

[Rhythmic Bounce]

Wow. I don't see how something this breathtaking only has two stars. Don't remove the white noise, it's classic techno and works well as a 'shaker' of sorts, it also creates a very profound effect whenever it becomes suddenly absent, only to subtly work it's way into the song again.
Great track!

SilentShadow97 responds:

Thank you very much sir! for your kind words, I also agree about the white noise, although I see where the other guy was coming from.

[Fallen Angel]

Love the tune, hate the title.
You lost the two stars for something much more important then that however. I would say your mastering is awful, but its pretty clear you didn't master it at all.
You got lucky today, I was wearing ear buds so you only gave me a headache. If i was on my PC you could have easily shrekt my sound system.
Go back. Put your master output at 75%, level everything to zero db (better yet lower) and re export it.
A laptop shouldn't need it's master output below 25% ever to listen to ANYTHING.
Please take this advice to heart, and pass it on. I don't want to be too hard on you, this is a big problem with today's producers.

Djjaner responds:

So do not listen too loud. ;)

[Sunlight Desire 。]

Beautiful

Tarenlee responds:

Thank you.

[Lonely]

Very nice!

[The Joy Of Nerdhood]

A very nice melodic piece. I don't know why this has such a low rating being very well composed. It could use an ending though, it kind of abruptly stops. If this was the intent it's not bad, but the intent itself would be more noticeable if some sort of finale ensued.
I quite enjoyed it.

AyzanNightbane responds:

Thank you very much. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I hope yo advance in my musical style. This was an attempt to experiment with different styles and combinations of music. Well sometimes I do reach a roadblock, music block which could be quite fatal heheh. At the same time I wanted to keep the mudic short as well especially for use in a loop kinda like a bgm.
