InsaneSmilie's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

Loop?

This song does have a cool beat to it, but it really just repeats itself over and over, it gets annoying after awile. If you were to trim and make it a loop that whould probably be much more appropriate. Also more instrament and more variation ingeneral would help alot here.

Vetkin responds:

Hey, to be quite honnest ^^ I really agree with you, see this song was mainly made for my girlfriend because she is so much into the whole industrial music thing, and eventhough I don't understand that much about it, she really liked it, so it did it's purpose, anyhow thanks for the review :) check out Mea Gaïa from me probbaly like it alot more :)

Creepy

This would almost better in goth section. It sounds like the sound track to some horror movie, just listening to it make me feel colder.

Interesting

It's got a futuristic feel to it, kinda down beat, but the arangement works well. I also like the interesting percusive sounds and effects used here. Not hevey enough for my taste but still good.

Doesn't work

Industrial/ambient is like an oxymoron, it really doesn't work. Also this song in general is way too simple and repetitive. It gets boring after the first minute. More percussion would help also I would choose between industrial or ambient because they don't work well together, and if this is supposed industrial it needs to be heavier and more percussive.

A closed mind is a sad thing to have.

Simple but smooth

The one thing I didn't like is the general simplicity of this song, not really enough there if you ask me. It is a really cool song like the guitar, seems like it would make good game music.

It's hevey, but it lacks rythem

The hevey synths do give it a cool sound, but this song lacks rythem, which is a key elament to industrial music. The drums are only on like half the time, and the beat is really inconsistant. It's cool sound but it needs more rythem.

Dj-Fanta5t1c responds:

ah thanksf ro the review man, hope i can do better XP

That was Intence

Heavy and generally sexy, I love it. The effects are really well done, so are the guitars, it all comes together really well. Love the echoy percussive sound you get with the drums. Good work.

Sephora responds:

I love the effects the guitar can make, it can make a composition easily distinguished and stand out.

Thanks for the 10

Cool but repetative

Well it's got a cool beat and you worked the effects in pretty well, but it's just to repetative, gets old fast. Try to use for variation.

snayk responds:

Thanks for the review.

I get what you're saying about it being repetitive. I'm told that about a lot of my music.

I knew it was going to be another of my repetitive songs when I jumped into it because there's no melody and it's basically just a drum beat, some vocals, and a few variations of the two elements.

Just be glad it was only two and a half minutes; I often make them longer.

[The Night Steed--_--(2:24)]

Very well done

I have never heard a synth guitar used so well, I still prefear a real guitar, but one can't argue with results. It all comes together really well. Didn't like the into much but other than that it's very good.

[..::Epic::..]

I whould almost call this video game music

Definately has an electronic feel to it, but I think it would really fit best into a video game. One thing I didn't like about this was that it gets very grind around mid way through, way to much distortion. The bass in general is too distorted. Anyways It's still good, and I still say it would work best in a video game.

RougeChocobo responds:

haha thanks. this was made before i knew how to take away distortion lol
