isub's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Piano Song-[Dj-S]]

diggin' it

This sounds more like a sad track, I don't think the beat wasn't nessisairy, if you add anything, I think you should add some other orchestral insturments, maybe just a violin.

Beautiful peice of music, please continue.

Sacrafan responds:

I was thinking that, but more of a synth feel still, giving it a chillout/lounge feeling. However, yes i was planing on putting a string in there, probably overlayed with a pad.

Thank you. And I will indeed continue it. For you two nice lads.

[Chain grabs mcdabs]

Make it your own

the pros:
The chords were great.

What needs to be worked on:
Default FL10 drums
Not drum and bass
The bass pattern
Unmastered
Chords would have worked better in a house/dance song (my opinion)

darcdebo responds:

Thank you

<3 oddworld!

LOL ODDDUB! :D, I used to love oddworld. - One thing I can recomend is fixing the drums, making them more prevalent, also, use more kinds of wobble bass :3.

YOU DONT NEED RAZOR OR MASSIVE (although they are incredable for dubstep) You can use 3xOSC / Sytrus / Z3TA ect ect. It has been done.

mako94 responds:

thankyou! ill message you when i finish!

[Morph - Unworthy [Dubstep]]

Crap?

You call this crap? well it sounds like a damn good dubstep loop to me... Really, really digging this, would be BEAUTIFUL in a breakdown.

Morphone responds:

Well crap relative Excision or xKore material. That's what I mean. And if you do think it is comparable to that level, then thank you, I should keep working that hard then.

[Fumigation Factor]

mate, some adivce?

You should really get a midi cable and some music production software such as ableton live to create better music, to master your songs. aswell, you're drums are really bad quality, it sounds like theres an echo to them i'm not exactly sure where thats coming from.

Furthermore, it's very random, there are no FX to introduce new ideas, it's not very interesting

Not trying to hate, just trying to give advice ;3 you should really try to get a midi cable

GreenSwitchDilemma responds:

While I appreciate your advice, mate, let me explain some things. This is random. Completely random, this isn't music designed to impress people or sound polished. It's spur of the moment improv done on shit equipment whilst being drugged out of your gord. It's not compiling tracks on a fruity loops, it's not using apreggiators and sequencers. It's a real live expression of nonsense that came out of the tips of our fingers. If it's not interesting to you, I could care less. You might not be trying to 'hate', but you are certainly condescending. I can tell you're music is completely computerized. That's why you garnered a three word review from me. It has no soul. Don't take this response as an angry one sir. I would just like you see you do better under the circumstances with the provided equipment.

[Synthesize (Trance, WIP)]

Jesus christ mate

that's sweet, idk what to say xD i think the only thing that could be improved are the insturments that you used for the song, otherwise it sounds AWESOME

Absolix responds:

Thanks isub! Yes, I agree with you, the instruments / presets used aren't the greatest which is why I plan on learning how to make my own sounds. I made the Sweep, and the bass which is slightly distinguishable in the background.
Again, thanks for the compliment! :)

[Be Cool <Seth Mix>]

haha! sweet!

way to remix a remix, sounds sick, its something new to newgrounds,

its a little overdone with the mixing part but i love what you added as far as the instruments go...

Just out of curiosity, what VST did you use for those chords at 3:00? it sounds awesome.

9/10 becuase you remixed a remix :3

SethKorn responds:

haha thanks for the review man!!! and i guess its better to over do than to under do xD.

i used z3ta+'s chords of life. a really great vst, man! Check it out!

[Ectso - Crafting Shadows]

ahaha!

the drum sounds like a slice for sure, the pitch bend doesn't sound great, but thats just my opinion... Alsooo, I recognize those drums, aren't they a reproduced version of Amen, Brother? I may have used them for a few of my old old songs.

anyway, not bad.

ectsoman responds:

Lmao, yeah. It's Amen, I actually found a tutorial that suggested using the sample for starters, I've still got quite a bit to learn and yeah, the pitch bends where a bit odd imo. It's no where near done, but I plan on cleaning this up quite a bit. Since it sounds like you've got some experience under your belt, maybe you could provide some advice since I'm completely new to this genre.

[Starlight: 2nd Ascension]

OMG!

I'm honestly liking this, pretty sweet! Reminds me of DJ Cammy!

balderdact responds:

Glad you like it :D

[Dreamy Sound Garden]

Beautiful

I love this, this is very well done,

I'm guessing you played the guitar part yourself (it sounds that way), the song has a great composition. the only problems I had were with the strings, you should have had them fade in or something, they came in too suddenly, and with the crash cymbal sample you used...

Overall, it was great :3

JJAmmons responds:

Thanks Isub, I appreciate the review and i'm glad you liked it. And yes I came up with the melody on my acoustic guitar :)
