Buoy's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[_=Trippy Techno Shitz=_]

lolwtf...

this is extremely unstructured and sounds more like some small loops put together... the start is... a synth loop with a completely different techno loop with a small drum pattern... sounds so horribly off-note, it makes me want to kill something
then................................... a panning thing with an effected snare?

wtf

and a dance loop coming in plus the loop in the start....
...now for a lot of wet wraps put together.
and so it just restarts...
this is complete and utter audio-nonsense. as weird as it gets, also it's nearly inaudible at times.

I suggest you to try and keep structure by having the loops and samples you're using at the same tempo, and making a structured setup with verses, small bridges/fades/changes into the main part on your techno/dance/whatever you're making for a MUCH better song. Also try to not make it blindingly obvious that you're just using loops by for example making playing the synths yourself too...

:D

Because, I have no life. I'm buying FL sometime, so I might actually be able to make something that's worth listening to.

[_-={Arise Sleeper}=-_]

jeez...

now that's gotta be a long poem, lol.

this song I felt is actually even more dramatical than the other tracks you've made, maybe mostly because of the huge orchestral kick in it. Sounds pretty before-battle ish there, but it evolves into something that still is dramatic, but it doesn't have the same dark style then.

the start could have been outdone even more, and I mean the very start; aka lengthening the very first note on the string section and then go on on the note progression for the strings in the intro and finally release the rest of the track.

The choirs sound crazy good, but I can barely hear it through the strings. The second bunch of strings which play a much lighter meldoy are also of a very low volume, so for the flute. these instrument (in my opinion) should have a more significant role in the piece.

the super-light chime was obviously made several octaves too high-pitched but could've been removed entirely.

There I'm done with suggestions/critisism, I'll just say that this track IS incredibly beautiful and overwhelming, there's really not a lot that could possibly get better.

This track is really dramatic, but at the same time, it's incredibly slow and not overdone at all. It's a very weird mix which strangely suits this track perfectly.

MaestroRage responds:

quite an interesting review SBB, i'll give it that! There are some valid points you bring up, now allow me to defend my choices :D

You see, the choir was lowered in volume because making it louder drowned out the rest of the instruments. I am not yet versed well enough in equalizing to be able to make a choir sound great without killing it's core.

Poor core... how I killededed you...

The chime was a little loud, i'll give it that X(!

There was a volume controller that didn't work during the export, which as a result made the booming transition a little "too booming", but it turned out that people didn't mind it, so i'm not going to complain. Maybe it made the piece more interesting!

The intro idea you brought up, is quite an interesting one. I did not contemplate that during the creation of the piece, and now am interested to seeing how that would have affected the piece. I will have to do that tonight if I get the chance.

Thank you for the review SBB, I apologize for the super late response, i'm so overworked T-T. I'm glad you enjoyed the piece!

[Lion King]

you're confusing me

Why the hell do you post "FUCK YOU!" to all the reviews? Is that some retarded way you want to gain attention? holy hell I wish I could flag author comments as abusive.

The only musical thing I heard was the start, which isn't interesting, but quite a lot like your other tracks, trancy and cheesy. And then you come in with some stupid roar. what the fuck is that?

I can hardly call this music. It isn't genius anymore either. Why are all your new tunes just short half-assed attempts at being funny?

You're dissapointing me so much...

Father-of-Death responds:

pfft xD hahahaahah omg dude!

wtf was that!

who craes about my msuic i'm just havin fun doin what ever i wanna do.

if you dont like it you can go listen to someone elses song...

plus... i was fuckin buzzed as hell when i made this and repsonded to all my reviews.... =/

yeah...

i gotta stop doin that....

[-Orr- The Pharaoh's Tomb]

story track eh?

teh intro is pretty friggin awesome. It doesn't entirely fir the rest of the song, but it's a great beginning.

Then it's getting really fast and heavy...loved the synths you used. the guitar is pretty awesome for being inside an electronica piece.

The drum work in this piece is fantastic, and the samples are great too. The only thing that wasn't superb here was the arabic-ish lead sounding far-away and that it (apparently) comes into only one speaker...

friggin awesome industrial piece!

DavidOrr responds:

Yeah, I'm still not entirely happy with the panning and reverb of the piece yet. I've been trying to give it as big of a sound as possible, but I think I threw the lead over a bit to much to one side :(

Thanks for the review!

[DJ Comet-Stubborn]

aaahhhh...

I don't listen to breakbeat but I really hope that screaming synth isn't used regulary, it sounds terrible :(

The lead that comes in later sounds pretty cool, quite a lack of diversity on the melody, but the rest of the synts, especially the flute-like one and the droplet thing changed it to get quite diverse.

overall good work.

[Open Mic Night]

you know what

when people don't respond to the reviews i give i feel like you're just ignoring it or never saw it or it may look like you're being ">:("and back i sit with a big with a small ":(" on meh faic for you not responding so plx respond to your reviews, it'll give you buttsecks

this sounds very loose, like you put together various parts of songs into this song. The wah wah doesn't fit also all the instruments are off- tempo. But the samples here might be set together in a good way and you might have a nice tune right there

[LOL, COCK!!1]

this tune

is making me hard

[{Hollow Man} [NG Cut]]

and I shall check

awesome buildup on this song... actually I don't think I've ever heard any more powerful synth patterns on a buildup ever before... and the drums are really heavy after it too, and it all fits together :)

then there's the main part... is that a string section I hear there? It's great, but it kinda drowns in all the DnB of it...

the rest is awesome :L

[XGM Zeth - Festival]

hey

I remember you from long ago the only thing I remember was you being norwegian... yay ^^

I don't know if you're even on this site anymore, but I gotta say this is a great "happy" orchestral track, which lacks in style. It's great as I mentioned earlier tho. Not much to say here really.

ye

[Pokemon Gym Music]

pokemonz eh

the synth sounds reaaaaalllly cheesy, like an acid bass or something, and the gong kicks are clipping way too much.
It's really short. You didn't do a lot to it except for a bassline and a drumline. Also improve your notes, it sounds terribly false. Has a chance of getting something great tho
