carl565's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[What Once Was]

pretty damn good, only flaw is the quality of the mic. Everything else is perfect. I'm sitting here trying to compare this to a band, but I really can't compare it to anything. I suppose that's a good thing considering originality is a key thing. A+ work, and I've got to say, I really do like the lyrics to this song and the progression of the guitar was great. Keep up the work, btw have you ever thought of naming the song Lub What Once Was Lub (Love What Once Was Love)? hahaha, I can't believe I just thought of that, that's a great title. Not to keep dragging this on, but this is a definite download for me and idk the last time I downloaded a song off of newgrounds. I love it. You know what, perhaps the mic isn't so low quality, so I'm not going to take off anything for that. 5/5

Lublub194 responds:

Hey man! Thanks for the review! I don't usually get creative ideas for lyrics, but this time I had good inspiration. I always appreciate your reviews!

[Shipwrecked]

Dude, I love this stuff. its amazing quality. The only problem I have is it needs a better build up in the beginning. Is this just a preview of a full song? I would like to hear more, haha. Anyways, keep them coming.

Lublub194 responds:

Yeah, this is just a little preview, I suppose I could use a better build-up though...

Like I said below, I haven't composed anything in way too long, so it's a little rusty.

Thanks for your continued support man! I've always enjoyed it, and hope to for a long time! :D

[A Little Orchestral]

ill be honest, I love the chord progression. I was surprised, it also loops pretty nicely. haha, with it being so short there really isn't anything else to say. The only reason I'm marking off a point is because it seems even for being so short there should be something more to it, maybe another instrument. Keep up the good work and were you planning on making this into a full song?

ganon95 responds:

like i said its meant for something bigger, there is some extra stuff that will be playing along side this to make it more "full"

[Uneasy Decision]

Amazing intro, but I do have to agree with the reviewer below me. Awesome song, with the exception of the ending. What program, if I may ask, do you use? If it's FL Studio, I'd be completely blown away man, haha.

4.5/5
5/5

empire00 responds:

I use Abletone.

[Eye of Horus]

It's alright, I would say it needs more, but with how short it is, it might just be fine. I do like the intro, it definitely gives the song character. I really wish you could extend this and actually make a song out of it. I am planning on making an intro for my Youtube videos, so if I do pick this song, I will give you credit and also let you know.

4.5/5
4/5

WarfareDubstep responds:

Ya man you're right :P It's just the break in to the song I'm making. I keep procrastinating on the issue of progressing my sound through knoledge, I have to start watching tutorials lol. I'm going to get better, I swear!

Feel free to use this and please do let me know! :)

[~Flashback~]

I'm loving it man, there are only a few flaws that I can pick out. First, the transitions are a little weak, try to show that the melody is changing before you change it. Second, the song could use some compression. Other than those two, I cannot pick out anything else. Nice job man, and I love the drum kits that were used. Keep up the good work

4/5
4/5

KuroTheFox responds:

Thanks :D!

[Lolz Dubstepz]

What program did you use to make this? and was it easy? dude you have no idea how long I have been dinking around trying to find the right way to make dubstep...

anyways, I like it, but it is way too short. The bass could have been extended. Amazing quality however. It seems a lot of your projects are extremely short nowadays. Whats up with that?

4.5/5 because I would've liked it to be longer.

Lublub194 responds:

I used reason as always. Honestly, the only way to make a decent dubstep patch is to experiment. Tweak modulations, resonance, frequency, lfo's, etc. Just take your time working on it.

The reason everything I've been putting out has been so short, is because I've not been making as much anyways. Gotta work, gotta pay bills. So I've been branching out when I can to try and make new stuff.

Always appreciate the reviews good sir :)

[Terra -[LOOP]- (SJQ)]

hahha

I like how you comment on the pads going like "plunk plunk." I love the mood of the song, it gives it a dark feeling. You are right, this would be good for a slow moving game, or the pause screen. Great job, keep up the good work.

5/5

SvDMIssion2 responds:

Haha! That's fantastic! Thank you for your kind words and positive feedback. This is the first thing i've put up here since... well.. the "crap" era of my music. NG was my portal for random shit I wanted to put up for fun. My soundcloud has a majority of my "music", and this is so off for me, but it sounds pretty peaceful and game-like.

[Legend Of Zelda: Tp Overworld]

To be honest,

When I first heard it, I was like, "Alright, this guy just got the MP3 of the original and put it on Newgrounds." Thinking this, I listened to the original on youtube and noticed that in the original, you can barely hear the snares. Next time, try not to make the remake sound so much like the original, people will think you copied it. I will not rate you down for this though because that is my opinion. Getting to the song, great work, everything from the intro, to the ocarina, to the synths, and the drum line is all in tune. You have everything put in perfectly. Nice job, man.

5/5
10/10

thenewmidishrine responds:

Thanks for the feedback!

[Nighttime Bash]

Awesome

I like the intro, how the song just sort of fades in as time goes on. The melody of the song is really catchy. I like the bass also, it has a good sound and gives the song a more power. The synths that you picked for this song match together decently. There are no flaws, so I give you

5/5
10/10
