Decibel's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[AF - Breath (Alfa Mix)]

I makez review nao :P

Beautiful, just beautiful.......

I love the sound of it, so crisp and clean, i can hear absolutely no clipping at all.

Now, the sounds......

The lead synth is familiar, but is a classic trance pluck so it don't get any better than that, the melodies you made with it are beautiful, your usual, obviously.

The rest of the synths were MASSIVE!! I loved em all, the purity of this entire track is just.... dude =O =D

A definite win =D

10/10
5/5
A definite frikkin download =D
Song fav'd

>DJ<

By making a new paragraph, i made the review look good :P

aliaspharow responds:

You didnt even fav it!

[SR - I Forgot in You]

Wonderful!

I love it, it's laidback and soothing.
The drums chose were 'all that' and the effects addedto the were awesome.

The instruments were vast and had that psychadelic feeling to em.
All in allthis was nice, the only thing i didn't like was the guitar, i think it was over-reverbed so it thre off the ambence too much.

The rest is fantastic though.

I wish you luck, oh ambient one =D

SineRider responds:

thank ya, and good luck to you too.

I see what you mean about the reverb. I tend to drown a lot of reverb on everything cuz it sounds soooo dreammy, but it loses some definition with that.

Thanks for the review

[NGADM Round 1 {Dj-Abbic}]

Very Nice

I love the way starts off so emotional, it's beautiful, then enter the synths, very nice, house synth the transition to it was very well done.

The melodies were very nice, I found myself humming them constantly.

Enter Square. The square is very nice, it's not that kind of headache square and it's not so soft that you can barely hear.

The transition to 2:00 was good but i feel as if you you faded into another song, you could have kept a seconadry instrument in the background to keep the flow going.

The meldy itself is klaas-y and very good, And the instruments keep comin', they keep amazingly insteresting.

The whole song was amazingly dance-able but at the same time, it was calming and soothing.

I think this is my favourite song so far, nice job.

Something I didn't like was the kick, it was too soft, I could hear it, but barely, the rest of the percussion was awesome!

So 8/10 because of that 2:00 thing aand the kick.
5/5 cuz 0-Bombers suck
Download cuz it's kewl =D

>DJ<

DjAbbic responds:

^^.

I guess a nice slow intro has been my recent style.

I did try to keep something going at 2:00 but nothing seemed to fit.

The melody IS klass-y and I just love that rhythmn, so yeah.

The kick sounded fine on my earphones. Are you listening on bass concentrated headphones? The low freqs in the bass may be intefering with the lows of the kick.

[{dj-N} Ambientronica]

Go Easy on Us Dude :P

Personally, I loved this, the feeling of it was spectacular and it was very creative blending soft genres with hard, fast=pad genres.

The intro was very straight-forward, The bass IMO isn't the best one, it seems a little bit too wet i think, It just doesn't sound right to me :/

But the bass is my only cmplaint, otherwise, it's a brilliant song.

It blends a lot of genres which requires different instruments throughout, they were chosen very well and varied.

The ambience was beautiful, even though it had DnB drums, it was still calm annd serene =D

Anyway, Nice Job

dj-Nate responds:

Just modified the bass good sir :) Thanks for the detailed and helpful review.

[SN | Music is an Expression]

I agree with SBB.....

The synth in the beginning could have been much better.
The song all in all was nice if not a bit random, you're getting very good at hardstyle and i can see that you like the genre through you msic =)
Although i wa hoping for some IDM song, i quite lked this =D
The sweep and breakdown was very nice, then enters the voice saying stuph...
Then enter awesome hardstlye melody!
It was Wowwin', I rly liked it =D
Your opponent hassome tough competition, seriously =D

Anyway, all in all Im giving thissong an 8 because it's a good song, the intro synth wn't the best you could have chose and it was sometimes random.

SessileNomad responds:

yeah hardnoise is pretty hard to work with, its not something i play around with much

dont worry, ill do IDM for next time

[[dj-Jo] Amatsumi]

Haha, nice =D

It was very nice, original and awesome in a lot of ways =D

The intro really grabs your attention, and the way you glitched that reverse sweep was very nice.

The drums chosen were awesome, very strong yet, not the kind that give you a headache, which is pretty difficult to do........

The melodies were wonderful, both the melody and the supporting melody in the background were very nice.

The instruments chosen, were original, immensely orginal, i've never heard shamisen in a dNb song.

Transitions weren''t bad but you could have eased into some parts rather just BOOM and that's it.

I saw 2:20 til 2:25 very random, i couldn't catch up : /

The intro and outro were very nice too :D

Summary :
Fast-Paced, interesting and orignal, but a little bit over the top for my tastes =D

Naic anyway =D, very very nice, as i stated before.

The only thing i didn't like is the voice, it's not the voice itself, but it just doesnt sound right, yes it keeps it interesting, but it's not so nice to hear.

anywayz

dj-Jo responds:

Thanks for Reviewing :D

and the part at 2:20 through 2:25
My brother said it was kinda weird lol

I'll see what I can do :)

Thanks again for the review :D
PS did you get FL Studios to work yet?

[Timbre On The Walls]

Okaaayy

Hai :P

So the intro was a bit strange, i wasn't so sure about that filter either :/
Those notes before the piano added depth, but the instrument itself wasn't very nice, and one of the chords didn't sound so good.

But on the other hand, the piano was divine, it sounded brautiful, the mix was perfect, and I loved the melodies, every one of them.

Not to be a negative nancy ( that tankman in the chat called me that, rhyme unintended) but i didn't like this very much, despite all the work put into it, i don't think this is deathmatch worthy, and take my word for it GronmonSE makes some damn good songs.

Although it's not all bad, the structure was pretty nice and the mix was very well placed and well chosen.

I like it, but it's not your best, work on it a bit more, we have more time :)

>DJ<

Kirbyfemur responds:

You probably are being thrown off by the dissonant chords being used in the beginning. And if i change the notes, i would be taking out a huge part of what makes the introduction the way it is.

And i can understand, not everyone likes dissonant chords. And unfortunately i really do. But the chord to me just fit to perfectly, if i took i tout the entire song sound would change.

To say this isn't deathmatch worthy seems a tad bit too much if you've heard some of the songs that have ran through the competition.

If to many more people complain about the dissonant chord i might change it, but i am really fighting against it. Thanks for your review though anyways :3

[Invaders {Dj-Abbic}]

Naic Songz

Very Cool, it sounds f'kin creepy =D
The Intro is Hectic and crazy, and i haz to say teh same about the whole song, the genreric Drums in the beginning, im not a big fan of, im sorry to say.....

Idk why but it I think it fits the name too :P. It was supposed sound like this because I just love Dirtyloud's remix of Apes From Space style. Anywayz, I'll shoot ya a pm. Thanks again.

[DJ Bossler - Shoot To Kill]

Naic

Quite nice, although the snare isnt the best you could fin, im sure of it.
The bass could also be a bit louder and more bassier (pfft :P)
Although the drum beats were very nice, i especially like the hatline.
another problem is the song's randomness.
Good, but not quite there
>Dj<

bossler13 responds:

i agree on the snare. it definitely wasn't the best one.
i didn't want the bass to be too loud because I normally have a problem with that XD

and i do think it was a bit random, but that's just how it came about. randomness.

anyway, thanks for the review man
