DJ-Nomad's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

nice

well mastered and a lot of fun!

NX177 responds:

hehehe thanks man i made this in one night :P

[Dance Attack]

umm...

The weird alien noises in the back ground did not fit. The effects were cool, but the instruments were both poor and pre-sets.

EggPremier responds:

Thanks, for the review. I didn't quite get what you meant by pre-sets.

[Ridiculous 1.1]

cool

If you want to make it a dance song make sure that low bass kick drum is low, punchy, and (for the most part) always there.

Some of notes in the 3rd theme leave the major scale and go into the Spanish Phrygian scale, It seam cool but it just doesn't fit because the chord progression clashes to violently, creating suspense in music is important to keep it interesting. In classical composition this is often done with key changes however in dance music it is often a better idea due to the greater presence of ambient tones to create this suspense by means of altering the rhythm (i.e. a tempo or time signature change.)

I think in this case it would be a better idea to clean up some of those ambient sounds that are spawned by your instrument choice. That way you can make it interesting without altering the time at the same time as producing a more driving and altogether more dance-able song!

good luck,

Parkerman1700 responds:

Thanks, I'm improving this song all the time, and that'll help a lot.

[something much greater]

cool

It has a very jazzy sound to it. It kind of reminds me of some of the weirder Asian games out there. I really like the piano brake-down around 2:00

asian games????....k?...any wayz thanx for the review

[Intel]

not bad bro

The vocals were a really nice touch. Good call! You should add some stuff later in the song (not much, keep it ambient) but enough to distinguish between the beginning, middle, and end.

ylwsub68 was right, it loops seamlessly.

keep up the good work
