Dj-Gonzo's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bit Land]

R4R
--------------
Wow, love the melody, the title fits it perfectly. When I listen to this I feel like I was in a classic GameBoy Platformer in a robotic themed stage. I love the background arpeggios you've added, it makes it more complex, and gives a funky feeling to the song. Keep it up Edman!

P.S: By the way, I've scouted you to the main audio portal, so your next releases will appear with the rest of the admitted artists. ;)

Edman520 responds:

Wow I can't thank you enough! For the review and the scouting! I'll try to not let this audio portal down!

I love the simplicity of the chords and the lyrics, you've found a great emotion througout the song. I can feel the pain of the man in the background you've built to the lyrics, a great history and an awesome message. The only thing I would like to hear maybe is a bit more of the pads you added in the end. All in all, this is a great work, keep it up! :D

>GTB

IndustryStandard responds:

Thank you! I'd actually originally had the pads going throughout most of the song(starting at the first chorus) but it was hard to keep them from overpowering the song. I'll keep that in mind for the next track though, maybe get something a little softer throughout the whole song and have the strings pad come in later.

[Left Behind]

Love the melody, pads and plucks man! Pretty uplifting stuff, I would like to listen a deeper bass on this one, it would definitely give it a massive sound,but that's just my opinion, it sounds great as it is. Keep it up!

P.S: Please, if you have time I would like you to review one of my Trance songs here: http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/637466

[Une Nouvelle Chance]

This is from R4R thread

All of this work came JUST from a NES soundfont?? Wow, man incredible work, I can't believe it.

I love the uplifting vibes and optimistic feeling this tune offers, especially the arps that sound behind the main saw. It is a simplistic tune, yes, but it makes me remember all the memories from 8-bit/16-bit gaming from my childhood. Amazing work, keep it up! :D

[NGs DnB]

OMG, here I can see some good ideas, love the PX9 and Dimrain47 influence, they're legends of NG. Also the beats and arpeggios are catchy as hell. I'm in love with these guitar riffs in the last part of the song. 10/10 Favourited/Downloaded/Voted. Keep it up! :D

[DJ Neat! - Stardust]

This is a R4R review

This one reminds me when I started in music production. Good melodies and ideas, but they lack the correct mixing, especially in terms of compressing the leads or the vocal samples. I gotta say that I enjoyed the breakdown at 2:05, that dry bass fits perfectly with the chords. Keep it up and try experimenting with compressor, Maximus (if you use FL) and limiters. Hope it helps you improve! ;P

GGMiXsiMusic responds:

Thanks for suggesting those effects, i DO use FL, i will try more of effects in future

[Into The Night - Doghouse]

Hey D00fy, long time no see!

I love this song of yours, the different chords and "videogame sounds" (?) blend perfectly. The only thing I notice on my headphones it that sometimes it seems that the transitions are out of the tempo. Anyway, mixing, composition and the idea of introducing all those different sounds is great. Keep up the good work! ;P

[The Prophet *WiP4.8*]

OMG, this song is getting better and better. Keep it up Timo! I'm sure you'll reach whatever goal you want with your hard work. Greetings from your Spanish mate, Gonzo ;P
