Kryptage's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Unified Fellas]

These are my thoughts as I listen to the piece!

-Intro is so deep, I love it. Bass drum might need a little less sweep into the sub though

-That classic acid synth is always loveable heh.

-Your snare is getting eaten alive a little by all the low end, and the bass drum is kind of ambiguous. You might need to work on cleaning that up in future mixes, especially laying off reverb a bit more.

-This section in at 2:30 is really moving though! I love the direction a lot.

-The way the song is progressing is really nice, keeps itself interesting!

-You did a really good job of creating the trancing effect. I was out of it from about 5:00-6:30.

As for final thoughts, as I say for most, you have a wonderful idea, and concept and you brought it out well. I just feel it suffers from the production. Just continue to work on clearing up your mixes, focusing more on post-production. It will make a humongous difference.

Great work though!

[It's No Time For Shenanigans]

Awesome! I always appreciate sampled sounds, it adds a lot of creativity and new timbre to any music.

The actual track and content is pretty fun, interesting and overall really well thought out and organized. It's very reminiscent of some of my favorite Psy/Goa Trance artists.

My only problem lies with the production. I think you are loosing a lot of power in your mix. The production is not that bad in comparison to some, but you could really salvage a lot of drive if you tighten up the bass sounds pay more attention to conflicting frequencies and just in general beef up the sounds themselves.

Otherwise, wonderful!

Thank you so much for your review, Kryptage! It's really helpful!

I'm glad you also like Psy/Goa Trance music. It wasn't very long after I started getting into that kind of music did my style change. My favorite artist is Infected Mushroom (Hence my track Mycophile) <3

Thanks for bringing up conflicting frequencies and stuff. I have a bad ear for that, which makes it hard to tweak and improve. I'll definitely focus on that part more, as it definitely makes/breaks a track.

:D
