Carf's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[City Bass Light (preview)]

This brights up my monday morning.

Wow that intro seriously caught my attension, well done. Nice build up, good use of sounds, nicely mastered. Not much to complain ;). Now let me enjoy this track.

(after 2 minuts...) Very nice build up, or as I like to say it, very nice storytelling. It gives me a bit that *Black hole records* idea from years ago. Tiesto's first mix cd's. In search of sunrise. Well, keep it up, you defenetly know what you are doing. First 10 that goes out today ;). And a 5+Download

[Flight in Freedom__RR (MAC 8)]

Good attemp

Good luck @ the MAC this month ;) I am gonna wait a while before posting. But its a very good point of inspiration ;) Is it an airplane flowing on your melodies? ;p

RenoakRhythm responds:

THanks for the good luck, I hope you do well as well. This is my first so i'm kinda clueless to what is expected. Oh and good news i'm exporting the file again with new pianos... unfortunately its taking over an hour so far to export, the nice thing about FL keys was that it didn't eat up as much CPU. Hey let me know when you upload your submission.

RR

Oh and the melody, i've kinda left out what i'm imagining while listening to this , but... the beginning is suppossed to sound like the plane is taking off then the rest is flying and the different emotions... then near the end where i throw it through a filter and it sounds distant and muffled is suppossed to sound like the passenger in the plane is closing his eyes and just taking in the flight, then he opens his eyes again as they are flying into the sunset... the end.

[Renegade (Original Mix)]

keep it up.

First thing that caught my attension was the way you managed to give the background an intresting vibe. I love mixed and fixed sounds on for and background, it gives a track lots of depth. Altrough I am missing a *stable lead* it sounds like a good background for a game or something like that here on NG. keep up the good work, you know what you are doing ;).

A-New-Decade responds:

Thanks for the great review, man.

[Kazmo - Satellite RMX]

Good job

Intro starts off good, so that is already promising. You got my attension. Its overall a very well balanced and standarized trance track, with standarized in a positive way. Overall it listens away quiet easily. Good job, that is for sure. Did you fixed the vocals aswell or was it a *stumbled upon* sample?

Keep up the good work

Kazmo responds:

Thanks for dropping a review!

I'm still not quite sure what you mean by your question "Did you fixed the vocals aswell or was it a *stumbled upon* sample?", feel free to PM me to clarify that.

Thanks again.

[Shoot em Up Level]

Oldschool

Good ol Doom feeling when it was all MIDI back then ;)
I would only like to hear a bit more crisp clear bass and snair sounds... it would bring a lot of smoothness into your track, but heej that is my point of view.
keep up the original work, I like it.

[This Very Moment]

Makes me wanna

play Tony Hawk so that means it fits the genre ;)
keep up the good work.

Set-Your-Goals responds:

Haha, thanks.

[First hip hop beat]

Good start

First beat ever made? Well then you receive some probs and I hope you try to get the hang of it. Some points of intrest. I hear a nice flow of melodies and I can hear that you defenetly tried to put some effort in your work. A point to keep in mind is that mastering is a form of art. Its the basic of getting a crisp clear sound so you have to balance ALL your sounds. the reason why I point this out is because you have tried to use a very low bass from time to time (that pooooofffff sound) and it pushes away the overall sound so you get an unbalanced 2 seconds each time as that hard bass comes in...

I hope these words help you to become better in producing music, its for sure that you should go on with what you are doing :).

[Elweed-No industrial revolutio]

Luvly.

At first, lovely mastered sound (after a few *others in the list* this sounds fresh to me)so you got my full attension. The sound of the guitar is proper and I like the little effects. The style of FBS is hearble, love the chiptunes that you have twirled trough the sounds itself. Decent mix. makes me happy ;)

[Instrumental Mokuba]

missing some important parts...

The start of the guitar line sounds a bit false to me.., also the track is lakking a proper bassdrum and a decent bassline at all. the idea is okay, the guitar sound is okay but still... I am missing to much to give it a decent number... :(

This is MY point of view. Dont feel offended by negative comments, if I didnt care leavning some hints and tips i would have left nothing at all ;). Creative sharing.
