Pulsar013's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Unknowns Unleashed]

I dont like Psytrance - but since is this it - 5. Nothing too outrageous - or outlandish to the attention. For psytrance is great , however I dont understand it like Progressive.

[Valence]

I really just - see this as sort of Beat-Boxy - maybe you could add a more powerful bass - and u know - get that hyped feeling in the track. This one is really light.

wulfsok responds:

Lol, I DID have a bass in there. Too dubstepish. Gotta work on the synths a bit more.

[Area 155 (Radio Edition)]

Nice - just wish it had a stronger bass. And a shorter intro.

ForeverBound responds:

well the original mix has got a longer intro but also an extra verse

[Kernkraft400 -Bigroom Rmx]

Umm - needs some major mastering - like the kick - its def. needs less "tappy" and more "punchy"

D-Chain responds:

might be..
but really a 3?
i should give you a 1 for making craplifting music.

[jAyMaC - Freedom]

WHOA - Ive heard that melody before - It sound really nice but - I want to say Robert Miles - Children - but IDK. Any way just fix the kick its too "tappy". Correct me if Im wrong - but this sounds like a remix.

JaymacOfficial responds:

Wow... you're right... Children does sound like this song. I had no idea when I made it, but it's definitely not a remix, I made this one :)

Anyway, thanks for your review :D

[Late Night Sprawl]

Its not very trancy. Its more techno. If you want some trance advice - increase the reverb on everything and keep a string of kicks - clubby kix in. And then use some claps with some hats. Also for your transitions - use some sweeps. And try and change the repetitiveness of the melody - u know - make it evolve.

carl565 responds:

sure man, i get you. I always have a trouble of picking genres. haha a couple months ago, I would be putting every song that i uploaded in the misc genre. As for the transitions, i know they arent the strongest, but oh well. I didnt want the song to carry on any longer.

[Memetus]

Its def. dance. I feel like theres less harmony with the rhythm in the song.

[Fields of Neon [MSB]]

The bait - the melody.
1. Fix the repetitiveness (its aproblem for me too)
2.Add some hats hats.
3. Use some more - sweeps.
4. Add the string of kicks - and then deliver the pluck.
5. Make the kick a bit more - punchy.
However the melody saves it all.

GrantBowtie responds:

Thanks for the detailed review - I've gotten other feedback that maybe this track belongs in a different genre, maybe Electrohouse.

[Oxygen - B4M!]

The intro to the Pad - very clever - u know newgrounders are suckers for 2 things - pad and piano intros.
However I believe whats really attractive is the melody - so thats good.
1.Repetition - it needs to be fixed (its a scourge). Evolve the melody.
2. Cymbals - u used them alot - using some more "deep" sweeps would make this better.
3. The saw - its reverb - was relied on a little too much.
4. Stronger kick - along with some claps.
yeah - pretty much it - this would be a great progressive trak.

BeefourMusic responds:

Thanks, I thought it was broken up and evolved into a nice trance melody? I agree the pad was used way too much though, should have given it a rest at some point.

Cymbals are good, I will keep using them for added emotion.

Stronger kick will come with the final mastering :) Also, there is handclaps??? Or did you want them to stand out more?
