StaticBlu's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ecosystem]

I love the thought behind this. I love the progression and subtle use of those mallet instruments. The guitar complements the melody really well.First thought that comes to mind while listening to it is being on a jungle safari. Great display of atmosphere.
It's great that you kept it simple and built upon what you already had going. After all, simplicity is key. A lot of thought seems to have gone in this track Keep at it man this is awesome!! It made me motivated.

Step responds:

Fantastic, these comments mean a lot. Thanks!

You know I'm quite surprised you think this is simple. I almost never make anything simple. I've always got to throw a bunch of instruments and accompaniment and stuff to make good music, and I never manage to nail that "simple but effective" feeling that work so well in other tracks.

But hey I'm glad you think it works here; thanks again for leaving a review!

[Something Wonderful]

You can definitely feel the emotion behind this. The bass sounded a little distorted and a bit heavy for me, but the point still came across well and I enjoyed it. Stay proud of this one. I'm sure that she'll love it, and keep it up.

ToxInjection responds:

Thanks for the review, dude! Yeah, I can tell when the bass sounds a bit wonky at times. That's still something I have to work on while I'm mixing the channel volumes. I was trying to keep the bass at a reasonable volume so it was still prominent while letting the other synths come through. It's supposed to be heavy for the song though. Deep, constant undertones, y'know?

I've actually yet to show her the track. She's been real busy with school and I've been letting her do her thing and get stuff handed in. I'm waiting for the right moment to show her the track and reveal it's dedicated to her. Here's hoping she likes it!

And you bet man. This is just the first of hopefully MANY tracks to come out this year. I'm gonna try my best to come out with more stuff, keep delving into different themes, styles, and genres!

[The Story]

I really like this. You have a lot of simple ideas and elements in here that make such an impact and make the song just a joy to listen. You said that a lot of hard work in this one and it shows. Good job keep it up!

djahmusic responds:

Thank you so much :D

[Game song?]

It's pretty good. I think you could build on it a little more though. Don't be afraid to change things up a bit. Keep at it

Merpy responds:

Ok thanks
i'll try to make a better song

[Humanity Is Dying DEMO]

This is my first audio review on Newgrounds and I want to be as constructive as possible.

You have a good idea, but it's really doesn't have a melody or progression for the audience to latch onto. The sound effects are definitely overpowering the track. In short, it's just a bunch of stuff happening. Try and limit you sounds and keep it simple. Remember that the actual song should come first and the sounds second.
Hoped that helps.
