Joobles's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[[Cyme] Everytime]

Bombardment away!!

First, the positive stuff:
The mastering, I thought, was good for the most part. Nice balance on all the instruments, and no clipping problems I could here. Also, the song flowed nicely from one part to the next, and felt natural as it progressed. Also, you didn't begin or end with drums, which I liked.

Now, I have nothing negative, per se. However, I couldn't exactly tell what you were trying to do with the song. Was it Dance? Was it Trance? Was it both? If you add, say, a high-pitched sliding synth, you'll have an awsome Trance song. Add more prominant drums with a few extra synths, and you have an amazing dance song. As it was, it felt... incomplete.

That being said, it was still a very, very good song, but I would love to see a remake of this in the future.

Cyme responds:

Thank you for such a great review ;)

I don't know, I'm not really trying to hit any certain genre, which is why I have trouble actually choosing the right genre.

I don't really have an idea of which genre I'm going to follow when I begin a project, I just use and create sounds that sounds good and fit together, and I focus a lot on the melody.

I've just gotten my hands on the plugin called Nexus, which is loaded with awesome instruments, but there's too many sounds in there, that you'd feel cheap for using, as they've been quite difficult to create originally, and if I use them, I don't really show any talent other than mixing them together.

[Sum of One]

Daaaamn

This is EXTREMELY cool. Almost Epic Indie. I don't have much to say on this, other than it was awsome. The only thing I (maybe?) found was that the wind? noise abruptly cuts of, seemingly unaturally, at 1:06. Not sure if this was on purpose or not, but I would have liked to have heard it fade out as opposed to just stopping. This isn't really a complaint, though, still thought the song was fucking sweet.
Also, this would be pretty epic with some choruses. That, and maybe fade out with a melody and the drums at the same time.
Though, once again, just suggestions.
I will definately be downloading this.

Anima-Theory responds:

Yeah the ending had a problem. I bitmucnhed the end and it sounded crap, but I couldn't edit the whole song, just the end, but it took out the wind.

It sounds better than the bitmucher :P

Thanks for the review man :D

[DXM - Brainstorm]

I don't know why this has such a low score.

I thought it was very well done. Smooth, relaxing, and with an awsome taste of the oriental at some parts. I didn't hear a thing wrong with it. You've got a five and a download from me.

tijnn responds:

Great review! And thanks (:

And the score... well i guess newgrounds needs more 2 minute songs
with ADHD synths and D&B drums than relax club / ambient ;) zerobombers ftw

[Like a rocket (Dj Janze REMIX)]

WOW

That was very, very good. I just wish that the higher synths had a bit more volume to them. I was expecting them to "punch" me in the face, and they never did. But besides that, everything was kick-ass. VERY good job =D

DJ-Janze responds:

i try your tips too :) it gonna rock then more i hope. helpfull comments , thank yo.

[Taking It Easy (GD)]

Excelent.

You've gone and done fucked ambient up in the best way possible. I liked the almost Tokyo feel of this track, very, VERY good indeed. The melody was chatchy as hell, it almost seems as if this could support lyrics (but not that sappy shit that's all to common to techno). I will be downloading this, excelent work.

whitewolf2759 responds:

Glad you enjoyed it, and I would be more then happy to add lyrics if I could find a singer :P

[So It Would Seem]

Relaxing

As it should be. I enjoyed this the entire way thorugh, you switched it up enough so it didn't get repetitive by Ambient standards. All in all, great job. I will be downloading this one for sure. And also, nice addition of drums =D

KuromoriBarba responds:

Thanks a bunch!

[No Stranger To Love]

All in all, pretty good.

But nothing really spectacular. Still, it's a solid remake, and I enjoyed it.

FullMetalROXAS responds:

Thanks alot man, I wasn't really expecting to get far.
I just got so bored and decided "Hmm... RICK ASTLEY TIME!!"

Yeah, it's 2:55AM here.
I'm THAT bored. :P

Anyways, thanks for the vote. :3

[Dreams; Aehains Song]

Well...

It COULD be an excelent experimental track. But for one, the talking is just horrible. In some parts, it almsot fits, like around 1:40. And the kick is horrible, to, it needs to have a CRAPLOAD more bass behind it. Althgouh, I actually liked the melodies you used in the song. But it's the sound of the VOICE!!!! If you want the voice to fit more, you need to have ALOT more going on in the song. Like, a ton of melody, so it in a sense overpowers the voice, but not enough that you can no longer hear it. Also, distorting the voice might add a cool effect. So, all in all, I would say add more melody and change the sound of the voice. But still, good job on the melodies that are there.

hugandthewhip responds:

Yeah, I noticed that I got the delay thing going on, and my voice is pretty high. As for the bassline, for some reason the one I put in there was overpowered. Hmm... And my voice effects seemed to have no effects working. Oh well. I'll try again next time.

[Bloody Mocha]

Fuckin' A, skippy.

I don't normally like classical music all that much, but I LOVED the hell out of this. Twas' superb on more levels than one.

SilentTakedown responds:

Wow, means a lot!
Thanks!

[Enigma of the Mind -DXR-]

Twas alright.

Not as god as the last one. It seemed... thin. I was expecting the song to build up, but it never did. Basically, everything seemed quiet, even the bass whose quietness slightly overpowered the quiet melodies. A nice, piercing, clear synth would have sounded great. It was also a tad repetitive. So, in general, just needed to be... louder. However, the mastering was impecable, I liked the melodies. This song seems to have a lot of potential, jsut needs more BALLS. Still 8/10, 5/5 (I don't give less unless it REALLY sucks, then I don't vote for it at all), and still free publicity.

Digital-Xcstasy responds:

haha this was not going to be that hard song you know? its a Enigma you know? so it haves you thinking and shoul make your thoughts race at the speed of light tothe sound of kick assness! you know!!!!! CAN YOU FEEL IT!
