Katanaman's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[!--F1-Fire--!]

Good sounds

I like the sounds you put in too. But there's not a lot of content there. There's no melody so it's the sort of music you feel rather than listen to. That kind of music is very difficult to make. You need to make the sounds come to life. It sounds too dry and mechanical. Familiarize yourself with effects. Once you know how to process the sounds right you'll make better productions. From what I can hear, it seems your best friend right now would be the equaliser. Learn to make the best of it. Some individual sounds might sound worse with EQ than without but they'll sit better in the mix.

Thanks for the in depth review. I'll try to make it better :)

You're in the wrong website

People here just don't have their ears trained to actually listen to music. They're mostly kids or young adults who never strayed too far beyond top 40 radio. You've got some intricate stuff going on there. Very good music. This could easily fit in one of Mike Paradinas's better albums. The melody evolves slowly and smoothly and sound design is top notch. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for your music and store it right beside my collection of Aphex Twin records.

It's ok

The first few seconds are pretty good. But the rest just doesn't click. Those 4/4 beats are lazy. The melody repeats all the time. At first it seems like you're going somewhere. By the end it just feels like you're playing around with your software. Maybe if you add some effects to it (it all sounds too dry) and some cymbals it might sound better.

yeah I did this in 15 mins.. was pretty bored... spring break... and yeah just playing around with the software.. when I have time I'll make a short loop and I'll make sure I make it less dry... and cymbals doesnt sound bad, make sure to check out a better version later this week, and check out cynthias first trip to asia, I'm pretty sure U'll like that one better... maybe lol :P
