Little-Rena's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[From Inside]

Very Good

I really think this is a very good track, the quality of the audio in this is really good and very clear and it's very nice to listen to. The vocals are really good in this track, they fit in with the whole thing very well and the singing is very good, no problems with that, although the background tune does make it hard to hear the words at times for me, the quieter parts are much nicer in that sense.

The ending to this is very good, I like the way how the background music stops and it just finishes with singing, I think that is a very good way to end this. Aside from the singing in this, I have to say the background is also done very well, the quality of that is also very good and plesent to listen to, overall, everything sounds good except the louder parts with singing is hard to hear the words to me.

5/5

Hey, sorry it's taken me so long to respond. I normally get to these a few hours after they're written. Anyway, thank you for the review, and thanks again for listening. Bands would be nothing without people like you.

Intresting Beat

I like this in a way, it sounds like it has quite a calm start to it which sounds good to me, then it starts to sound a little darker and a little mysterious even, which does sounds good I have to say. The ending half of this with the kind of strange sounding voices came together well in my view, so nice work on fitting those in, though it's a shame this is a little short, a bit longer would have been good.

I liked the opening to this and much of what followed, which is good to hear, it's just a shame it ended so soon. I do hope that you make a long version of this, that would be good to have. There is nothing else wrong with this, the ending here does kind of work with everything.

4/5

jxl180 responds:

Thank you for the review. What i fear of when posting longer songs is repetition. Even though this song can't really get repetitive, repetition has been a problem with my previous three minute songs.

I'll see what I can do, but no promises,

[Summer Days (N)]

Good Work

The lyrics here are very clear, though I might suggest putting them in the description anyway, lol. It's hard to find many songs that have vocals to them in the audio portal in my view, which is nice to hear some. One problem with this is that at some points with the singing, it crackles a little, so you might want to fix that. Though, not sure what the problem is, but eh maybe look into it.

The singing really fits in well with the background music, no problems with listerning to it, everything here seems to flow very well. Though some of the lines seem to be a little long but it seems the singer here managed to make them sound shorter, which is good, so nice work on the whole here.

5/5

Thanks for the feedback.
I'll look into the crackling you mentioned, cause
I don't really hear it on my setup.

[-Stormy Dream- |[Glou]|]

Intresting

Well you have quite a happy sounding tune to this considering it's suppost to be a storm type song, I would have expected something a little more dark, but alright, not saying it's bad just kind of diffrent, lol. The quality of the audio is good, everything is very clear although it's very hard to make out any sound of a storm for much of this, you might want to work that in a little more.

Not sure what else I can say about this, I mean overall this sounds pretty good to me, everything seems to come together very well with this tune, which is good to hear. Plenty of diversity through the whole track as well, so there is nothing repetitive that I can hear from this.

Cool, glad to hear you liked it. Thanks for the review :D

[MAC 2008 - Monster]

Neat

It has quite a dakr tune to it, which comes together well the way you have done it and everything seems to sound very good to me, a little slow for most part too. The main background seems to be hidden at parts over more dominant sounds, which is okay, I mean it does work in a way and it can still be heard by the listner, keeping something constant there.

There is quite a long silance at the very end, I can't see why you don't just cut that off really, lol. The opening to this sounds good and the build up is very good but somewhat slow which I'm not too keen on, the closing part of the song is also very good, except for the long silance.

4/5

Scribbler responds:

The silence is a sort of opener for the following track I was going to submit a day later but decided not to. I originally was going to make this song a bit more fast-paced but realized that it ruined the mood so then I slowed it down a bit and it felt more like what I wanted. Thanks for the review.

[.:Sleepless Nights v2:.]

Calm

This sounds like a pretty calm track overall, there is nothing here that really stands out from the rest of the track though, so not a whole lot of energy in this but it's still pretty good all the same. The piano sounds to be played pretty well, which sounds good and the rest of the music that goes with it really precents this from sounding dull, so nice work on that.

You have done some good work on the opening to this as well as the ending, both of those seem to sound very good to me. Overall I have to say this is a very decent track and very clam, there's nothing I can really suggest for you to change, because adding more energy into this would probably just ruing it, lol, so good job.

GronmonSE responds:

Haha interesting, other people say there's a lot of energy in it. Oh well, matter of opinions :D

Thanks for the review.

[Jxl180 - Run With It]

Distorted

I'm not really very keen on the quality of much of this track, it sounds to be very distorted, not sure if you did that with intent or if it's by accident but I'm not really keen on the distortion. Other than that though, from what I can make out of this, everything does sound okay and such, much of this sounds to be played very well and comes together well.

Though at the ending you have some kind of instrument that doesn't really fit in with what as playing through much of the rest of the song and I find this inconsistant and not really working with the overall tune. The opening is pretty good though, so nice work on that but I would really suggest a new ending and making the sound cleaner.

2/5

[Alive(Original)(emc)]

Intresting

This started off sounding quite promising in my view but it didn't turn into what I was expect, it just kind of kept with a pretty low and slow sounding tune. I mean it's not a bad thing but it doesn't really stand out, it's only when it gets about half way through that it starts to sound a little more intresting, which is good but for a long track I would have thought to have it get into the main thing a little sooner.

I do like long tracks, but usually when they have a bit more going on towards the start, the long intro isn't too much of a problem if you listen to this while doing something, I mean it's not very distracting which is a good point. I didn't notice much repetition through the whole of the track, which is also good, though you had a few things that where there for much of the tune, it didn't sound repetitive.

The length is nice, as is much of the sound overall, I have not problems with the audio quality or the way everything comes together, it does flow very well through. The ending part seems to go on for as long as the opening though, which I guess is okay but does seem like it drags on if you know what I mean, everything is done well, I'm just not personally keen on the dragging out of the intro and ending.

genee responds:

hello little rena, the song is long for a reason, its a trance song, besides of being trance, it is done this way to let djs mix it with other songs, and the structure its based on on many other trance profesional songs, sorry bout it being long but it has to be, its a slow, 130bmp and well what else can i say, instead of being a song from start to end in 3minutes you actually need to prolong the time to introduce the elements and in the same way kill them without giving the feeling of sudden kill of the sound. and again im gratefull for your review. :)

[/BBQ\ -- Once]

Okay

This sounds very good from what I can hear of it, there is nothing wrong overall with the sound, everything seems to come together very well and the quality of this is pretty good, although maybe work on the ending a little more. The opening to this is done well though, so good work with that, I can't hear any problems with the gradual build up in volume.

Although I think that some parts of this song do sound a touch too repetitive, there is nothing too wrong with it. There is enough change to keep it intresting to listen to, decent use of the length here to, which is good, almost reaching three minutes, lol. Nice job overall on this.

Thanks for the great review :D glad you like it ;)

[<==Silver Strut==>]

Nice Song

The beat you have in this is kind of upbeat in a way though it also has kind of a dark sound to it, but I do like the way this flows through the whole thing, though I'm not too keen on the way this starts, seems to just jump right into the peice, also I think the ending here could do with a bit of work, it just sounds a little like it ends too soon.

Other than the opening and the ending to this track though, it sounds like everything comes together very well. It's not repetitive from what I can hear and I think the beat you have going on with this is very good. I must say, good work with this overall, although I don't like summer, lol.
