dj-skeetskeet-69's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[[EpicM] DDADSM]

pretty good

mm you probably could have taken it easy with the high frequencies on the saw. this has a lot going on in the high end but not in the low end. the kick needs to be heavier, the bass is alright. good job on the percussion overall, and it's not too repetitive or anything like that. good job overall 8/10 and 4/5

EpicM responds:

im too inexperienced, i only adjust volumes and stereo channels to keep it a little clean from blowing the sound to 0db at every kick :P

The lead by the way gets Legato if 2 high pitched and mid bass cross, so i didnt have much choice of making it really high...

thanks for the review :D

[New Beginnings [APEuro]]

neat

i guess you could call this trance, but if you slowed this down and made it a bit softer sounding it would be a good ambient song =P kind of has a laid back feel to it. you did a good job with the drums, you avoided the four to the floor that most trance songs have. you use a crash each whole note, i would replace that with a softer cymbal like a ride or an open hat. otherwise, good song!

APEuro responds:

what do you mean by four to the floor? Forgive me if I'm a noob.

[Revolutions]

lol

lolol wow the percussion in this is pretty awful. also the synths arer really bad. you should seriously just compose classical, you have great composing skills and if you actually learned how to use fl studio your songs would sound a lot better, and even though this is 3 years old i've heard your newer stuff and you obviously still haven't tried to learn anything new about fl studio.

[Evil Darkness remix]

better than last time

try not to use fl slayer, it just sounds corny =/ it's a bit repetitive, you probably could have shortened this to about half the length. it doesn't really have a melody for the first minute and a half, next time try using a melody to go along with the lead. nothing else to say except keep making music, the more you do it the better you'll get.

[Desecration (PrEmoEffect)]

mmm

good stuff. i would've used a heavier kick, raised the lower frequencies' volumes some more, but that's just preference. the synth you used for the bass definitely should have been lower though. overall pretty good, 9/10 and 5/5

PrEmoEffect responds:

But its Goa! lol, you need a high bass and punchy kick. I guess ur a big fan of club music? Tis ok, thanks for the review.

[~EnV~Heaven Rd. 2 (Ng mix)]

wow

the last time i was on this page it was when the song was first submitted and it had like 2 votes. damn. this is really fucking good, the only thing i miss from the first version is the glockenspiel. love them glocks.

[.X. Welcome To The Matrix]

finally got around to reviewing you back =P

cool intro. i like the piano a lot, and then the way the gate creeps in is pretty cool. at 0:45 to 0:55 you make a good transition, then when the steady rhythm kicks in it sounds pretty good, you have a good kick/clap combo going there. i would make the hat louder, but that's just me. it sounds like you put a solid amount of effort into this, and you were right about it sounding unique =) good going, 9/10 and 5/5

[little trance song]

i speak a little french

but i'm going to review in english. i will try to use words that are easy to translate from english into french. it's apparent that you are new to the music thing, so i will give you some general pointers. try to get some different drum samples, the ones that come with fl studio are okay but they are overused and aren't the best samples available. ask people on newgrounds, plenty of the guys here will be more than happy to provide some good drum samples. since this is your fourth submission, there is not a whole lot i can really say. my fourth song was about as half as good as this. just remember that the more you make music, the better you'll get. practice makes perfect! another thing to do is listen to the music of other people, and of course review other people and ask for feedback. good luck with your future music =)

XELAPA responds:

thanks for your review! I am working on a 5th music, I am going to try news things, will see definitely what this gives!

[{Stay With Me} (FL Core)]

woo

i wish i could make the samples that come with fl sound that good...i have to use those ridiculous samples that pretty much every slightly popular trance/dance person on newgrounds uses
this sounds kinda fuzzy in some parts
i like the melody a lot though, catchy =)
if you read this you should explain how you made the pad, was it 3xosc? i've tried making a pad with 3xosc, it didn't go very well.
anyways, good work on this one, good luck in the contest
