Envy's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[LO - Seventh Heaven]

I got the notification from an audio forum reply and was like "wat."

Pretty cool yo, and with a catchy ass melody to boot.

Personally, I would have turned down the underlying keys, to expose more of the melody but it was pretty cool.

Say what you want about this type of music all sounding the same/being repeitive etc etc but it's fun as hell to make, and I'm in love with it.

<3 5'd, sir. Thanks for thinking of me :3

Oakwood responds:

Well I noticed that the last few songs you put out were all Avicii-like so I figured you should here this one as well. Seems like my tagging strategy worked out well. Don't worry I won't do it again ;)

I have exactly the same thoughts about this type of music as you do. If the music is good then why would you care that it's repetitive (which isn't the case for most songs).

Thanks a lot for the review man, appreciate it! :)

[**Halo 2 Peril (Remix)** Unfin]

CC, D#D#, D#D#, DD, CC,CC, G#G#, GFGD#C

There you go :3

Oh and the bassline is F,G#, C, A#, F, G#, A#, D#

DisconnectedFromGame responds:

Haha, well I do appreciate it. Although I can't work on this particular piece anymore. Hard drive cleanup deleted many of my old projects so I can't go back and edit them. Might try again though, we'll see.

[Silent Echos]

Approved but

I'd try lowering the lead synth like 14,000 octaves (but in all reality atleast 1 or 2)

I always have my headphones up, and what a surprise this song was when it came on -.-

madhoe responds:

Thanks for approving.

[Rush core]

Approved

Welcome to the audio portal. Awesome song you have here. I love that first melody you introduced and then everything following was just brilliant. I really loved it. The only thing I'd change were those hi hats. They seemed to be leaning towards the right ear and were pretty loud.

Other than that, nice work :0

kiiryu responds:

Thanks dude. This was made quite a while ago, so there are A LOT of things I would change about it mixing-wise, maybe I'll remake it someday.

[The Wave (2010)]

Awesome

You've been approved to the audio portal.

Awesome song you've got here. I'm listening to it while watching game 7 of the stanley cups playoffs and its pretty intense.

I really like how it keeps changing throughout the song to keep it entertaining the whole way through.

Overall you did a great job, I loved it.

Welcome to the audio portal!

MrTwisT responds:

Thanks for the feedback ;)

[The Turn]

You're approved, anywho. Probably the quickest approval ever lol, ask anyone still waiting -.-

Anywho, welcome to the audio portal.

JiffyGB responds:

I WANT YOU TO WIN

Please just win, you deserve it.

snayk responds:

Fingers crossed.

[Robert Miles - Children (DJ XeMeX Remix)]

Pretty cool

I happen to love the original, and the Dave Darrel remix. It was pretty awesome, how it kept the energy up almost the entire song. The only thing I'd say, is that the piano could have been a bit softer. I wish I had heard more of the melody that starts at 2:58 because it was pretty sweet., but the piano kind of drowned it out because of how loud it was.

Also, I know this song wasn't meant to have a booming kick, but I would have made that underlying kick a little bassier, to really move the song forward. I can imagine this being a really bassy, full track sometime in the near future :3

For now though, it was pretty awesome. Also, I'd make the uplifters and downlifters and hits a little bit quieter, so they dont detract from the rest of the sounds.

The intro was pretty fuckin' badass too ^^

Nice work 8)
9/10
Voted 5.

CAK3MAT3 responds:

THx Envy ^^ needed this feedback ..cuz idk hoow to control the volume in my music thts one of my weakness ....I need to learn wats uplifters and downlifters ( ithink u mean by sweeps??).....and again thx :)....... :D ur awsome...and ur right my piano is to loud (oO) thx for pointing tht out

[~NK~ "Space Man" wip]

Awesome

The melodies sound awesome, but when it comes to the mixing theres a huge overflow of highs and midrange. All I can say is take out some of that and add some lows, and this song would be awesome. If a re-master of this comes out, it would definately be top 5 material.

Awesome work again here!

Envy

Rukkus responds:

Wow. Thanks for great review and tips man. There's still a long way to go until this songs finished, so ill def change around the highs and lows.
