Buoy's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[*_Techy Loop_*]

Very techprogish

But again, this isn't much more than a loop. There are drums going and a dirty synth lead. A typical Flash soundtrack actually, but not a very good track to review.

The lead sounds good, though it needs to have a lot more cleansing effects- it sounds kinda naked and doesn't have enough in it to make a good sound.

The melody it's playing sounds very techno-ish, very much like what most people make.

the drums sounds good, a bit sample-ish and simple for me, but not the worst thing I've seen.

Keep working.

That's funny, this one took me the longest out of all of them.

Thanks for the awesome review! =]

[~*Piano*~]

Much, much better

I actually loved this track!
I hardly ever listen to piano only or classical (I have no idea why you put it in Trance...)

The melody is great, and has a perfect timing. (Do you use samples- seeing that yo requested them a while ago? The timing is possibly a bit too perfect.)

I still could see some more in this track. Piano usually isn't enough for a track except in insane classical tracks. I see you have a bass there too at times. but it's very low and could have an insane volume, that'd sound a crazy lot more bad-ass. And probably make it a trance sequence too.

You could add some drums, not neccesarily any huge stuff, but maybe just something small and really simple to keep the rhytm in it. (As I did with my last sumthin)

this is actually a great track ever how much I wrote about where it could've been improved (I seem to do that all the time), it's a beautiful track with a great melody.

(make better titles plz thnx)

eyechieftrees responds:

Well what the fuck else am I going to call it? =P

Thanks SBB, Your review means alot to me. =]

[Wings]

Great song ^^

And indeed you area allowed to sumit full songs, but loops have much smaller filesize, so they are smaller and easier to use for Flash Artist. I suggest you submitting full songs instead of loops. ^^

This is good, it makes me kinda think of running from some gay murders combining all their powers to rape you to death.

This one does actually get burnt a bit too much into your brain.

All the drums are good, diversed and complex.

Great fx and efx. Shouldn't have been there all the time though.

bah I'm running out of stuffz to seh

Karco responds:

Hah. That's a new one. =P

By burnt, do you mean "stuck in your head to the point of sheer infuriation" or "stuck in your head to the point of going 'wow, catchy melody'" or do you just mean really, really high temperatures? =P Hah.

The drums I actually feel are fairly second-rate in this song... maybe it's just the sound of the FL defaults. Bah. I hardly use them anymore anyway. =P

FX and EFX? I don't know what you're talking about. XD Maybe it's the synth...

I don't mind that you're running out of things to say, though I do have one thing to point out - if you listen closely in the beginning and the big buildup in the middle of the song, you'll hear a bass/sawtoth thing going up in pitch up to the gunshot, and then it'll be playing a bassline-ish role throughout the rest of the song... bleh, that you didn't mention it probably means it was waaaaay too quiet. =P

Oh well - thanks for reviewing anyway. =)

[Gunshot *BOOM!* (Loop)]

catchy *WHEEE!* (loop)

Wooohoo! Should I finish this review?

Karco responds:

Yes. XD

[Phantom Zero]

Yah

A very good song indeed. the start is really making it sound like you're going to get out on a big space journey, and the sfx coming then makes it complete, also it is a very good addition for the sound of this piece.

The background synths and stuff are great for this piece, but the melody the pad plays seems off-tone, and the order of the notes, and the notes, are not making harmony, and they doesn't sound melodical.

You could change the notes to one full note up and two down (I think that's what I'm thinking about), which would have made it sound really great, and also it would have made it sound more epic-ish-y.

The percussion in this is good at times, but I don't think clap only is good for percussion, even though it is only on parts. Yu should have the percussion much more exciting the whole track over.

'nuff sed. >:(

Karco responds:

Yeah, I've experimented with the pads - everything, actually - and the song sounds a bit better - it has a slightly different attitude, too. I'll probably submit it sometime soon. In a day or two, maybe.

I'll look at the drums, too, but I don't see what's wrong with them. Maybe I'll have them fit the buildups a bit more, but otherwise they gave the feeling the rest of the song gives in my opinion. Hmmm.

Oh well, if it's still deserving of all 5 10's then you apparently think it's more than decent - so glad you like it and thanks for reviewing. =)

[Get Up, And Go!!!]

wooooot...

I never reviewed this song? blargh.
This is a fantastic trance-ish song, not as monotone as most trance songs.

I loved the upbeatness on this song, it has a lot of drive in it.

It sounds most like a kind of boss battle soundtrack or something on the boss level.

I can't understand how you ppl make your drums so damn good >:(

vote fiev

Stealth-Emergence responds:

w00t Thanks SBB, sorry about the delay in response, I'm normally quick off the mark, but I've been a bit tied up with my "project" lol

Thanks man glad you like it

Peace Out!

[Dance to the beat]

My gawd

I hear this kind of music too much in the Audio Portal- Trance and techno doesn't have any feeling- you should try having your own style.

But for a tranc ytune this is a good one, it has the usual nonsense melody which could have been made good if you took the effort that would take...

The drums are ok though they don't make the tune a lot better...

The only thing I don't like is that it is a so... overused genre >:-

but keep making music anyways.

Aaron-Miller responds:

lol! still, thanks anyways =p

[M3llo]

What the friggin hell?

Did you just take out the samples from the loop window and put them into the track?
I remember every single loop in this song in the loop window.
You may at least make the music yourself instead of just dragging the samples, and if you use them you could at least change the midi loops.
