duckson's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[MrCookie's techno beat.]

Screw that it's not good

The melody is addictive, and the song is constantly surprising but not jarring. The only problem with the song is how you ended it, other than that it's great.

Keep composing, this stuff is awesome.

[J.D. - In My Head [AMP Remix]]

Wow.

1300 listens on this? It's obvious that the Newgrounds audio portal is going seriously down hill when a song of this caliber only has 1300 listens. The mastering is fantastic, the melody is addictive, and the whole thing flows wonderfully. Good job on this one, you seriously deserve more than you're getting.

AMP responds:

Yeah they should revamp the Audio Portal so it will get more traffic.

Thanks for the review duckson :)

The chord progression is painful

The songs chorus starts out sounding like it's going to flow beautifully, but then the 5th note clashes, and more terrible notes follow after it. If I were you I would work on the way your notes flow together, the awkward notes ruined this song for me unfortunately though :(.

Nice mastering though, everything fits together very clean.

The mix of instruments is questionable

The song had a really nice groove going with it up until 0:15 when the screechy guitar came in. The Lo-Fi squealy guitar just kills the song for me, if you replaced it with a more appropriate instrument (With less treble) it would make the song a lot better.

The Bass line makes this song.

yea im thinkin about completly ditchin the guitar parts in the song and replacing them with the synth u hear in the background

[Ascensionesque]

Would make a good movie soundtrack

Overall the song doesn't progress very quickly, which makes it get a bit repetitive. It does start to get really nice when the drums come in though, you've done a really good job with that. The break in style at 2:45 is unexpected, but done in a way that it fits very well, but it breaks into more slow progression, which may be good for some people but I just don't appreciate the slow progression. Some sort of lead instrument coming in would be really nice, but again, it makes a great soundtrack piece how it is right now.

Well done on this one, this is really good.

[Happines is out there]

Wonderfully Epic!

The first 30 seconds of the song did a fantastic job of hooking me in, and I'm glad I stayed for the entire song. The song has alot of emotion to it, I can really understand the feeling this song portrays, and its not very often a song can do that. Wonderful job on this, its absolutely fantastic.

Oh, and the snare sound you've got there is awesome.

Tulvadar responds:

Thank you!!! :) Check out my other songs here on NEWGROUNDS. I would like to hear your comment.

[Epic Jam]

Nice song man

Really well done on this one, especially the Snes style synth solo around 1:30, thats about the moment I rated you a 5 :P. The only problem is that it gets a wee bit repetetive near the end, the song was good enough to allow me to get past that though, really nice work!

[Data Traffic Highway]

Great tune,

Sounds awesome, A nice relaxing tune thats mixed really well. The only problem is that the lows are way too loud, and that results in a painful ring. Other than that, nice job!

Tysuru responds:

The instrument is quite painful.

hmm...

but thank you =]

[Happy Flashback Loop]

Very simple...

The only problem with this is that it needs some sort of backing, like an orchestra or something. Pretty addictive tune though :P

[I >3 Audio Portal.]

Very nice.

Indeed. No comment needed, I think you can see the problems with this already.
