Multihunter's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Survive The Future {Rebuild}]

Better build up than the other one

The other one got straight into it.
This one built itself up to a nice melody for a bit. But again, it was the same few bars or so of each instrument over and over again.
I do see that you put the layers on them so that it wasn't exactly the same. And there IS 2 new parts. They were there, but it took what, 3 minutes before you see them. After that, they come together reasonably nicely.
But I still feel like there is a problem with the actual putting the different parts together. I think all of the instruments are trying to be heard over the top of each other or something like that.

Being-Glass responds:

I will look into that for future mixes of this track. I had some other professional advice for the intro also. the idea is getting the track to where it has good clarity and tight percs to the beat. if those fall in line perfectly the melody or parts that seem repetitive will be all the more addictive. normally i dont keep anything steady in my tracks.

Thanks for taking a close listen to the track. and see you around!

[An Unconventional Tempest]

Pretty good

It sounds pretty darn good. But there's not enough in it for a 6 minute song. It started well. But got a little boring after 3 minutes of hearing what sounded like: "Chocolate Rain..." so many times. Maybe some different notes throughout the song to keep up with the changing music?

HappyHomicide responds:

to each his own, i guess

[{0125} Strive]

Erm....

4 notes, 2 drum instruments, and only one little tune that was repeated far far too many times. And the little tune wasn't all that great either.
You could have changed SOMETHING SOMEWHERE!
You really need to have got more than just one little tune make, and if possible make them flow into each other or maybe change the panning of the notes. SOMETHING!
I think I might be being a bit generous with a 3/10 for this.

0125Beats responds:

I think you might be being a little too harsh...

I'm new to this, and I'm actually starting to realize that I repeat the tunes in my songs. It's good feedback that you are telling me, to change the tune, but the way you are saying it (you keep stressing it over and over) isn't the best way to get it across. Say what you need to say to get your point across on how I need to improve and at LEAST have the courtesy to tell me "good try" when you are finished...you guys are too rude and take everything too serious when you are reviewing.

Thx for the feedback, it is definitely noted...but you do need to realize that I'm just warming up with these songs/loops, a LITTLE encouragement would of been nice...not just raw negative (although good) feedback with no emotion attached to it. Regardless, thx for the review anyway...

[New Leaf Turned {part 1}]

Reasonably good.

I think the problem I had with it was that it wasn't so "clean".
I'm not sure if that's the word for it; like a more pure sound with less distortion. But, yeah, if it was more "clean" I think it would be better.
Other than that, I think the snare may have been a bit too loud, along with some other drum parts, but mostly the snare.
Still, a very nice song.

Being-Glass responds:

I might have to do more work with Compression, I noticed the bass is a little higher in volume which in turn makes other sounds be a lil more muddy. and with a limiter that is also being used I might have my central band of frequency range off leading to why my snare might stick out in clarity more than other instruments.

Thanks for your awareness I have been building in surround sound these days instead of flat speakers or headphones so most of my work is slightly off with treble ranges.

[[Nightmare Session]]

Pretty good.

I would have liked it quite a bit more if it didn't spend nearly 2 minutes using almost the exact same bars of music before it got to the "random part". Which strangely made the whole thing more creepy.

imadethisfromboredom responds:

I do the same beat too much, and I will work on it. Thank you for the review and advice.

[Trippy Music]

Nice and eerie

Eerie music is always good, especially when it leads into some cool rhythm later in the song. This one didn't, and just stayed the same for 1:29 seconds. Seems a little pointless to me.

Sacrafan responds:

If you want, i'll send you the full 15 minutes, when you listen to it, somehow it stimulates a part of your brain to make you actually feel like you are out of it...

[Closed Carnival]

nice and creepy

But it just isn't entertaining...much...

Koji98 responds:

It's background music, so it works, as long as you get the feel for it. It really shouldn't be entertaining.

[Alien's Aura]

Could have been better

If you took out the part where you suddenly turned it into a deep thud thud noise at 2:51
Or at least make it less obtrusive to the rest of the song.

Otherwise the song is good and fits with the title.

Bobox responds:

Yeah, that "thud-thud" sound is annoying, can't change it, made it about 8 years ago :)

[AntiOxi]

Good. But...

It starts off very good, but it gets a little boring after about 30 seconds...

My suggestions are to get more instruments or make a more interesting tune with the ones you have and maybe at about 1:20 make the percussion a little louder.
(I don't give out 10's very easily...)

BacterialBag responds:

yeah, you can see it as a rather long intro, but I am thinking of giving atleast one melody change before it blasts, but its still unfinished. Thanks for the review :)

[March of Heroes]

Good but..

I thought some of the notes at 0:49-0:50 sounded quite off... maybe try using a slightly lower piano (Or what ever is at the front at the start) key. So maybe 1 - 2 semitones, whichever fits...

Other than that it sounded pretty darn good!

Devlfish responds:

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll keep that in mind while I work on it some more.
