DjRin's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[DJ CGL - Sinborn]

Dang this has a tight atmosphere!

I like this! The flute-ish sounds really good! The drums accompany this well I'm curious where its going... (I'm listening right now)
1:14 when the synth comes in... eh its not my cup of tea personally.

Ooo but the guitar that comes in after, I do like that. and the little bend at the end of the riff :) thats hot.
Not sure if I'm feeling somebodies death with this song, unless its like a action scene death.. but thats besides the point

I like this its fresh and has good direction.

crazyguylink responds:

Actually, the scene where the character dies is in the middle of a firefight with his father/team-mate right next to him. The scene is supposed to get more intense as the father goes completely berserk and shoots his way through anything in his path. It was actually supposed to be the key action sequence in the story. Thanks for for the compliment. I'll try to make more like it.

[DJ CGL - Fueled Blaze]

I'm seein potential here :D

I know what you mean about finding good music creators, you work with fruity loops at all? their demo is basically the full product but you can't save... however you can still export mp3's :D

Anyways onto your song... I like the start! I feel like im in a tribal festival someone should be yelling AREEBAA!!! I think a little polish on transitions would help, like a reverse crash before the synth comes in or a break in the drum beats, the synth is good but im kind of thinking a little harsh for some around 1:15 or so that higher synth noise. Ummm.. Maybe a bassline would be good too. I like the feel right now though its got a solid direction. Haha the noise at the end sounds like a popped balloon :)

crazyguylink responds:

AREEBAA!!!! LOL. I agree now that I took the time to listen to it again. The idea of the title was from being Fueled up on too much coffee, and the Tribal aspect to the music. I thought it sounded a little like festive, dance around the fire type track and used that image in the second part of the title. I don't have a reverse crash on the program, but i probably should have tried the reverse chord in the guitar pool. might have sounded better. I'm planning to try to make a track with heavy bass in the future, for a more powerful impact in the sound. Also, I love how the crash at the end finished it off too (you're right. it does sound like a balloon popping).

[Ectso - All Snowed In]

:D tis the season!

Hey man! Thought I'd throw a review out there... maybe see one come back my way.. :) but you dont have to.
Anyways, my thoughts on this piece...

Very playful nature, positive sounding and what not. :) i like that part. Cool effect in the beginning but when the beat breaks in its kind of a lot to take in at once. This sounds sort of like a pyramid style track, just adding one thing on top of the next. Thats not always a bad thing but I think maybe having breaks and utilizing different sounds at different times instead of the same stuff all the time would help. But all in all its a happy song and I like the synth energy here. :)

-DjRiN

ectsoman responds:

Haha, thanks :D And yeah it's just a pyramid as you call it for now. I wasn't planning on actually making a song but then I got carried away. But the way I did it it was too clustered to make it anything but stacked, but now that its cleaned up I'm going back in awhile and altering a bit of the fonts and what not. :D

[HW - Day 6 Beat 12]

haywirehaywire responds:

thanks

[Boogleys Birthday Song!]

After 1 minute it is AWESOME

Clever catchy swingy a bit totally awesome :D i think cut out between 0:15 and 1:00 and you'd have a masterpiece, but regardless im giving you 10 because when it picks up its so awesome. Good work i dig it, jus not that dark sort of chanting part I mentioned above.

Stalagmite responds:

na. i agree mate :D its a little dull and pointless, i just thought it was funny is all ^ ^ its like impressing a serious tone on a positive fun occasion, kind of contradictory ^ ^ either way, at least by contrast it improves dramatically near the end LOL :D thanks man!

[Remember the Killing (Inst)]

i like this

solid arrangement
good buildup..

im feeling the rock!

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Thanks dude

[Dragonslayer]

a totally climactic explosion of beat and rhythm to accompany that epic wave of melody you are commanding!

otherwise i love

Scooter-16 responds:

[[DJ_ITD] - 6ixth Sense]

this is tight!!!

think it should get into the beat sooner than at the two minute mark
but other then that im diggin it! you should check out my freefall track its kinda similiar... kinda... well maybe not.. maybe... haha ;) good work

-DjRiN

djInTheDark responds:

Oh, wow, Thank you for bringing that to my attention, I never realized it went one THAT long. I will definitely at a look at that by the way.

Reviews always appreciated!

[Rockshaw!]

The instruments do allright

but the vocals are buggin me. maybes its jus preference.
the chorus has a good feel to it tho. and the second half of the song is shaping up better than the first.

ah well i think it does alright!

-DjRiN

TheMaskedJew responds:

Well, I'm glad you've written something, but unfortunately it's impenetrably vague. You make no specific comments on melody, harmony, chord progression or rhythm so I can only assume you actually know nothing about music. If you are enraged by the previous statement, I can only tell you to prove me wrong.

[Sahara - [DJ-ViZ]]

Sick intro, take off with it!

That was hella sick! then i read it was meant for hip hop so I realized all that repeating melody was supposed to have an mc backin it up. still i think you should make something sick out of this its got some bamf potential :)

DJ-VIZ responds:

thanks dude, yeah that explains the repitition
