Sequenced's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[AIM 2021 - Bridge]

Epic jam band sesh.

AndieCiambotti responds:

Thank you!! I actually recorded everything separately... It was like a mental jam :D

[AIM 2021 - Citadella]

Top!!

Your sense of melody and structure is very mature, well done.

I bet this will be Top 3 for AIM.

Albe responds:

Thanks a lot, Sequenced!!

[AIM -Angelopolis-]

Make sure your bass is mono!

Melodically cool track.
The string rhythm part in the 2nd breakdown doesnt fit. It can use more work.

Add a bit more reverb and delay on that guitar to fill it out inbetween notes.

[AIM - Sunset]

Kick is wayyy to clicky and loud.
Makes it harder to hear the rest of the elements

A more punchier kick and less “sub and clicky” would work better.

[AIM - Stomach of The Beast]

Claps can be louder.

The 808 has too many notes for that portamento effect you have on it I think

WakerLink responds:

yeah, went a little bit overboard with the amount of 808 notes, I don't know why but I go overboard with them a lot of the time, thanks for the feedback

[AIM - The Unmatched Power of The Sun]

Only thing I don’t like is the static quarter notes bass in the breakdown.

WakerLink responds:

kinda ran out of ideas as to what to do with the bassline there, thanks for the critique

[AIM - Fox Dreams]

Using the RuneScape sound fonts? Haha.

Some of the bass notes don’t fit with the chord progression.

Add a bit of reverb. It will help fill out the space in between your guitar notes.

Petrol4brains responds:

You caught me on that bass line! Wasn’t sure if it was super noticeable, but I’ll look into it. Thanks!

[AIM - Twin Cities Under Blue Sky]

The first arp doesn’t sound in key.

The breakdown loses a lot of the energy from the first part. A shorter breakdown with some of the percussive elements could keep the energy going.

Outro is way too short for a long breakdown like this.

CryNN responds:

Thanks for your criticism. I never thought about people disliking the long breakdown since a huge majority of trance tracks have a breakdown actually losing the energy on purpose. For better transitions i would suggest to listen to the extended mix because ive had to cut this version to follow all the rules of the AIM (max lenght must be 6 minutes.) I was lacking ideas how to finish the outro so i ended it abruptly with the guitar

The arp is in key (or it should be :D )

[AIM - Acid Frog]

Change the snare!!! It’s too weak for this.

Shorten the kick too. It clashes with the sub.

PandaThePanda responds:

Thank u! It takes someone pointing it out for me to notice sometimes!
