Gloudas's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[*- Filthy Logic(Loop) -*]

oo!

This sounds quite good. That bass.... I'm getting all moist in my private areas just listening to it. How'd you make that, or where'd you get it from or whatever? Because, I most definitely must have it.

:D

Jebbal responds:

The bass? It was too easy. You gotta give that knob a twist, push those 4 buttons, put a bit of super de duper distortion on it, then all thats left to do is execute some massive equalizing as you would to a banana pancake! That's pretty much it!

Thanks for the review!

W-where is it? I don't - I don't see it anywhere where did you p-put it? Is it on the front? The back? I'd really like to catch a glimpse!

I'm going to bite your teeth out! You sexy man you.

[Stadium Wave]

milk, eggs, waffles

Haha this is kickass! Its got the coolest, weirdest sound but still makes me want to dance :D

K so the goods:
Awesome melody. Its cool and ravey, and it kinda sounds oriental at the same time. Dunno if thats just me though. You've also got a sweet-ass bassline, it gives the song a really intense drive, and I'm realizing listening to this that a strong bassline like that has been why my songs have been lacking the drive I've been looking for, which is nice to know. All the percussion sounds in the background sound great also, they really give the song that ethnic sound its got. The breakdown at 1:30 is just awesome, and the high pitched melody that comes in at 2:25 kicks copious amounts of ass.

The bad:
Not enough pan flute

Excellent job overall, I'll definitely be using some of the ideas in this song for my next dance track. Im excited to hear more stuff like this from you :D

JohnnyFrizz responds:

Alright! Thanks for reviewing back man, really glad that you liked it! ; )

[Cave Story ~Moonsong~]

nice

Nice job here, I really enjoyed it. There are some great synths being used here, and overall it has a really cool sound, and theres enough variety that it stays interesting to listen to. It's got alot of emotion tied into it as well, which is hard to accomplish in an electronic song. My only criticism really would be the pads you use maybe aren't as good as they could be, as they're pretty much simple 1 layer pads, and maybe try playing around with layering a few different ones to create a fuller sound. All around though, excellent job.
5/5

[Believe Again (Original Mix)]

wow

This is amazingly good. I've listened to the majority of the mac entries, and this is the first one that's really made me think of flying. Its just such a pristine sound, all the synths sound really fantastic, especially the way they fade in and out, and you've got some great effects in there. Overall, the song is just incredibly atmospheric, as its got such a deep sound, and its incredibly entertaining to listen to.
I'm listening to this right now, and its the first song in a while that I've really just enjoyed listening to. Its a great song overall, should do real well in the contest.
5/10/dl/fav :D

JohnnyFrizz responds:

Thank you very much man, Im glad to hear that you enjoyed this so much, I really hope I get a chance in the contest with this.

[{-^MP^-} The Only Way Is Up!]

awesome

excellent, excellent song. More than anything else, it's rediculously funky. I mean that is just a sweetass bassline, can't get better than that.
And god damn, is that guitar good! I mean, the whole song is just one bad ass solo, its stays creative and catchy throughout the entire song, and thats hard when you're pretty much solo'ing for 4 minutes. So yeah, give my compliments to Frank, that is just crazy good
Love the drums as well, they serve as a great background with enough fills to keep things interesting :D

incredible job all around, sounds great, keep it up

[Rig - 2 AM]

mmmm

very calm and atmospheric
Sounds great in the background while I'm doing homework, it makes math seem much more epic than it actually is
I really like around 6:55 when that bassy instrument comes in, really gives the song a powerful dark feel
Sounds fantastic all around :D

Rig responds:

Why thank you. It's all just 3xOsc with some reverb and stuff, lol
Let me know how your math homework goes!

[{-^MP^-} Mellow Sunrise]

haha

haha this piece is awesome! I really like how its put together, sounds really authentic classical, especially the beginning. I actually laughed while listening to it; it has that medieval faire kind of feel, but at the same time its really upbeat and happy, to a point where can help laughing at the cheesiness of it. I know way too little about this genre to criticize anything, but the song sounds fantastic, so well done :D
5/5

Musical-Pants responds:

Thanks, I think it sounds medeval as well.
I appreciate the review!

[Petwoip - Foggy Seas]

wow

This is really a fantastic piece of music. It really creates some vivid imagery for me, its just such a powerful piece. Very very nice job, I'm blown away by this

Petwoip responds:

I'm happy to hear that!

[p4c-I'llBeLovin[LostSoul rmx]]

Awesome

this is an incredible song :D

Good: The vocal work in this is absolutely fantastic. I don't know how much of the vocals is you, but either way it sounds incredible, its incredibly high quality and the way the vocals are incorporated into the song is amazing. I also really enjoy the strings, especially at the beginning, they really give the song that mellow hiphop feel. Speaking of which, I would say this should be put in the hiphop genre; feels much more like a hiphop song because of how much it is centered around the vocals. In general, the background sounds and effects sound great, they really give the song a really full feeling that sounds great to listen to.

Bad: The only criticism I have is that at the beginning the drums sound more like a trance/techno drum beat than a hip hop beat, but later on the drums become a little more hiphoppish so thats not really a big concern.

Overall, this is pretty much flawless. Its professional in every way, and I could easily imagine this being played on the radio or in clubs. Really fantastic job, this is one of the better songs I've heard on NG

p4c responds:

wwell its a remix, so the vocals were definately not me haha. its from I'll be lovin you long time, by mariah carey. i just changed the speed, rearranged some vocals, enhanced them with effects, and spliced some parts. all the background, eq-ing, etc., though, is me.

im glad you liked it! while i cant accept credit for the vocals, i can accept applaud for the work :) i think i'll change it to hip hop too--while i personally think this is house, i see where ur coming from--its significantly slower than house generally is, and plays up the funk/soul part of the genre. so it sounds very much like that. maybe ill put this in genre mix contest...?
