Pulsar013's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Aqua Blue]

Increase the volume of the pad - and keep the kick solid and straight - I think this should be some sort of hip-hop beat.

[Memories (WIP)]

I really wanted to give this a 5 the first time I listened. But I decided a 3 was best, because - at first it sounded like a progressive trance piece, but it evolved a little to quick so first off you probably want to add more time to your stuff.
2nd - You introduced the pad really early which is ok - but not if it stays the same throughout the whole piece.
3rd - Your instruments are a bit "naked" I feel like you need to add some reverb to your plucks -
4th - GET A MORE powerful bass - synth.
Other than that it was pretty bouncy.

[Lonely Sky]

One major thing - mastering. Try and not make the a whole minute of the piece like a pad. And remember to use louder, punchier kicks - I cannot stress that enough. IF you dont know how ( I didnt the first time I tried to make something ) try and use Sound Goodizer - it helps a ton.

wulfsok responds:

I will NOT use sound goodizer. The output sucks, you have no EQ, I'd much much rather use maximus in conjunction with fruity convolver, and for a drumtrack blood overdrive helps too. Plus the SG uses an extreme amount of system resources when layering a complex synth.

As stated in the description, this wasn't meant to be anything special, but I will remaster it if enough people want it, but I'd rather just work on a new one. Thanks man.

[Testing Day-QUADX]

Louder kick - and I think it would have sounded better if you layered it- like progressive trance instead of leaving those spaces. And even though it evolved pretty well - if this trance, Im looking for powerful transitions, like cymbal crashes and sweeps.

quadx responds:

thanks for the review. iv just been working with a different style lately and it takes some practice.

[Phoenix Rising]

This is pretty good - for a climax and then a drop. I feel like you should have added a stronger intro - it sounded alot like the whole song. You know what would have made this even better? A string of clubby kicks. I mean a piano in trance is amazing - and a bit difficult - listen to Daniel Kandi's Promise - it uses the piano so well.

[No Housing (WIP)]

Well - simply put, the way you pulled the song together really makes it sound like "house" and a lot of dance, ( all of them are part of the family of electronic) It was a nice piece however, ( one of my favorite parts of trance is its organization ) it wasnt really organized like a trance piece, I mean there are trance pieces that put you in the song really fast, however they add powerful basses and variate their pitch. Also, something else the piece is definitely missing is the "sweep" portion of trance. I would highly suggest increasing the depth of the song - add better transitions - preferably sweeps. Now, if you ever quote me on something, know that right now I really have only one semi-trance song on NG, and its a preview.

Jenni-Harry4eva3 responds:

Exactly see? It kind sounds "house" like to me, at least. I'm not entirely sure where or how to place it. But I'll be certain to add those elements to it. Thanks!

[~Crazy Bass 2012~]

Its not too progressive but its certainly dance/trance - which is given a great showing here. Really like the pad being delivered - that's a difficult part of electronic. And to say it took only 15 hours - well thats pretty nice timing.

keosni391 responds:

thanks :D

[København Goes Up!]

Well -well, very dancy.

Airprogressive responds:

thank you, dude!
