Sequenced's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[xKore - Splatterhouse (WI]

Oh hai

Fix up those high ends then your good to go. Snare needs more high punchiness too.

kthxbai

[Solus - Endless Space(CFremix)]

I miss this style on NG.

Good stuff mate, this brings back some memories :3 Just work on your high end EQ and then it's pumpin'. Keep it up.

[Sois Side Soldier v2]

Oh my god.

I'm still laughing.

LOL

[Tetris On The Toilet]

Lol

This isn't something you hear everyday.

[==(IMPACT)==]

Neat.

Good rhythm, good melodies, sick bassline. The kick was a bit too sharp and punchy for my taste though. Sounds like you over compressed it too.

Love the Arabic parts mate :)

[Rain.Ocean.You.]

Beautiful.

You rarely find songs like these on newgrounds. Beautiful guitar riffs and great atmosphere. The rain effect really gave it a sleep type mood and I loved it. I've been listening to this song three times already and I can't get enough of it. Please make more songs like these. I'll definitely be checking out your page later.

[Stargenx - Greensleeves]

MIDI rips are a bit frowned upon here...

... that is if it is a MIDI rip. Sure, you changed the style a bit but it definitely sounds a lot like the original. Perhaps change some chords and / or arrangement? It'd be fresh to hear than just listening to a MIDI of it.

One thing I'd like to comment on is your volume levels. I believe that the drum kit could be a bit more louder and the guitars seem to be over everything, unless they are meant to be that way because the piano has some important parts in here. The strings could also be brightened up in the mix, as it is somewhat low.

I would also like to hear some bells ring out on the main notes... test it out, see what you think.

I really got nothing else to criticize on, so you made a pretty decent remix, if it is a remix anyways. I haven't heard this song in ages, so it's nice to hear it again. Keep up the good work.

No midi rips here! :o
I wanted this to be mostly true to the original. I agree that the mix could be improved.

[Big Red - Le Rap de Gangster]

Better than most rap.

I usually don't listen to Rap, but if you made a full song out of this loop, I would definitely listen to this one for a while. Your song has a nice flowing beat, good riffs and the lyrics fit really well. The lyrics point out a good message that much says that people should be ashamed for the destruction that we've done. ( At least that's what I think it says )

The overall mix is kind of weak. There needs to be a stronger bass, if there isn't one then you should consider putting a bass in your song. The synths needs to be brightened up if you get what I mean. Adding a stronger compressor and EQing it more would help.

The only thing I'd suggest for the instruments is the rhode sample you have. It sounds a bit too cheesy and lacks professionalism. You should look up sound fonts for the pianos / rhodes - Ableton does not really have many good sounds that would sound realistic.

Your variety in your beats is really good. It's not something you'd usually hear in Hip Hop. Everything fits together nicely, nothing seems to be out of place. I give you props for that.

All in all this is a great potential song you have. Keep up the good work. I can't wait to hear the full version of this.

[B.T.P.D Remixed]

Ear Rape dude..

Seriously, don't be lazy when you are making a song and turn those volume levels down! Everything is clipping which as a result makes everything distorted. The whole mix is muffled and it the EQing isn't strong enough. Please, work longer on your songs and take the time make everything clear.

There were a couple FX noises that seemed unnecessary. It pretty much ruined the flow of this song. The Kick is too weak and needs to be more punchier. The rest of the percussion needs to be turned down to level out the mix. Trance songs aren't easy as they sound, it takes time and experience to get a clear sound.

Last thing I'd like to point out is that there was not any real melody what so ever in this song. All I hear is just a few plucked instruments playing a small rhythm.

Try again next time. Put more effort into your tracks so that they are not as ear raping as this one. Listen to some professional songs in the genre that you like to make so that you can have a good view of what the mix needs to sound like. Remember, practice makes perfect.
