p4c's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cycle of Love and Hate]

meh

ill jst give u comments as i hear stuff. since ur just experimenting, ill just give u feedback. sorry if i sound kinda cruel but thats a good way to get better.

1. beginning the chord-ing synth is kinda annoying
2. the dramatic bass drum thing is nice. not so much the 4x4 beat, it just sounds out of place and annoying.
3. good that the hi hats are goin fast. until part 2, in such case it doesnt fit in.
4. that synth is annoying again. and its lagging to the beat.
5. that ambient pad in the back isnt bad
6. the bass drum came back its too fast and not diverse and so its annoying lol
7. choose something different than those claps they just sound too lofi and out of this generation already since [i assume] ur not aiming for something really old-skool.

none of ur instruments are edited/distorted much at all, and theres a huge lack of effects to make this more interesting. but dont worry with experience ull get better. it took me a year to make anything half-decent, and im not that good yet, ive gotten significantly better. keep hope alive ;D

[the techno beat]

meh u can do better lol

well i was expecting a techno beat but there was no beat lol. well the random synth bloops just sounded unorganized. the high-low thing doesnt stay on track with the other crap. the synths themselves sound like teletubbies on crack (hence an 8 for originality lol) so that could be renovated. theres no bass, it hurts! theres no beat either.

there are too many organizational flaws and crappy synths for me to every really want to listen to this. i dont think i need to give u any more detailed response cuz u can do much better.

and seeing how u steal demos from fl, according to other reviews, get good. and make stuff. or bust.

[Quarl - Antagonist]

not that bad

i think the drum patterns were good and overall the entire piece was clear. the way the bassline stops and starts was a nice effect (though i think the bassline sounds like it lags a bit too much from the beat of the song, but thats just me.)

my main complaints are-1)those screaming voices just got kinda annoying lol 2) i think the song would sound cooler wtih more electronicky drums than what u have right now, but its okay 3) i like the bassline but for some reason i dont like the synth u used that much, i might just like more passive stuff or something but i dont know. lol. and 4)the kinda high ambient sounds seem to be off tune from the bassline and stuff so it sounds disconnected from the song.

sorry if u dont like feedback like some people do. lol overal its an okay dnb song.

check my stuff plz :D

Quarl responds:

No! I love reviews, the feedback always helps. But I also like it when people vote , or more importantly, download. I love it when I know that people are listening and so do other AP artists. I'll check out your stuff post haste.

CHIPTUNES@NEWGROUNDS! YAY!

check out my stuff plz :D

jared-meyer responds:

yea... i really like NES style music, and i will probably be making more songs like this :D

[Angelmass]

sweeeet

im lovin this, the drums feel strong and bassy, so i like that, and i love that pulsating bassline--its sounds legitimately cool unlike 99% of the songs on newgrounds. gj dood.

check my stuff :D

[(( Illuminate ))]

some flaws

I think that this has potential to be slick, but needs to be touched up a bit. the drum arrangement at the beginning seems to sparse and spastic, but later on it gets a bit better. i think they can use some editing to make them sound more intense.

that guitar-pad thing that you used sounded pretty coool except that im not too keen on those twanging sounds. i think that the feel of this song could be better achieved wiht something different, something darker.

lastly, ithink itd sound muy awesome if there were multiple melodies at the same time rather htan concentrating on one and one alone.

overall, this is a good start. :)

[sorry if im brutally honest; im jst trying to give feedback to improve rather than flood ppl with flattery. apparently some people dont like me for that :( c'est la vie.]

check my stuff plz :D

MasterSpanky responds:

i appreciate the feedback. I'm still kinda gettin used to using this and everything. thx alot for the input.

[Karbon - Amphetamine [Preview]]

just sounds too empty :P

yeah, i like that weird bassy thing and the ambience of the song. however, i feel that the drums could hvae way more variation (its just hte same thing over again!), intensity (the drums as of now are weak and distorted/compressed very little), and distortion (if done well, can make the song way more energetic and cooler), with this being a dnb song and all. also, the song feels so empty--nothing but the unfeeling bass and the semi-weak drums. there are some things to be improved on, but i think this is a good bass for an awesome song imho. seems kinda like hollow man by cornandbeans :D
--
check out my stuff!! :D

Karbon responds:

Well, I understand that you're trying to help me out with criticism, and I thank you for that. But this is a preview. There is alot more to improve and come. But, I'm not going to be publishing the full version on here.

Thanks man. I'll use your points for improvement.

[NICE Feelings]

its okay

i like the pads that you used, and the noise in the background. the main things i fault you on are 1) more bass, this is a dnb song! 2) the drums are not chopped or distorted at all. you just like took loops and played them as the drums. be creative! slow them down, speed them up, distort them into noise, thats what jungle's all about. but anyway, this is a nice song, so gj.

check out my stuff plz!! :D

Paroxym responds:

thanx for the review but this was not meant to be jungle bro.

[Slow Night]

nice, but can be better

i like that kinda creepy choir and the piano pad u used. it gave it a nice feel. however, i think you can improve on the drums you used--it doesnt fit in with the aesthetic of the song. same thing goes for the synth that comes in like halfway through. and also, i think you could use more instruments-the song seemed centered on only the piano-like thing and the voices, and other elements to stress the feel of the song would be greatly appreciated. otherwise, gj!

check out my stuff plz!! :D

[MegaMan 3 title RMX]

nice dude

the piano sounds dramatic and nice [although some chords would be cool] and the synths u chose were strong and nice. the only thing id suggest is stronger bass, but thats just me, it might just be my headphones. well this was dramatic sounding and overall good. gj dude :)
