nightvision's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Octoplant]

I cant hear what you're saying but i bet its good

Though this song is somewhat short, it catches the attention of the listener, and this comes with a big BUT. I can't hear what you're saying worth beans. Good melody, with a bit of EQ mixing (boost low shelf) this would be a great song. Good Overall, keep singing. Of course, this is assuming the kind of singing we can all hear. ;)

[Area 6-Star Fox 64]

Nice feel, but less canned percussion

First of all, good improvement from your first songs. It's evident that you have better skill than before. I would suggest that you add more diversity with the percussion you choose in your song. The melodies were well synthesized from the origonal music, but the drums needed more depth. You can do this by adding reverb, or accenting with gain. Good job overall, the impression the song leaves you with makes the listener want more.

Thanks for the tip, but i have only drum sets. Thats all I have, I use garage band.

[Vivaldi's Spring 8-bit Mixeroo]

Good effort, I would like to hear more melody

I can tell that you spent quite a bit of time on this piece of music, ZekeySpaceyLizard. I noticed some of the phasing and fx in backround, but one thing that had to strain to hear was the melody. The majority of what I was hearing consisted of supporting elements and percussion. Instead, in the future, try to supress the percussion and instead bring out the central melody. It sounds like you need a few pointers to get you on the right track, and then you'll be successful. Keep learning and experimenting ZekeySpaceyLizard, you're doing fine. Good luck for future songs.

I dont understand what you're talking about, but hey whatever floats your boat.
It sounds good to me, so who cares.

[Ring Ding Chingidy Ching]

Nice rythym, but seriously lacking melody.

I really enjoy how you experiment with non-traditional rythyms, it's nice to do something different from the public. At the same time though, I found that I lost a general interest in your song after there was no melody lead-in. For the the future, I would recommend a unique introduction to grab attention to the listener. As well, I think you would benefit from adding melodies rather than just more thumpin' and pumpin'. Good Effort Pyrochickenx, keep working at it.

p.s. (thumpin' and pumpin' is still good :P)

[Techno Atack]

Good energy, but little diversity

I liked the way you kept the song moving through your acid-style synths, I found myself gettnig into the song. But just for the next time, you may want to add a little diversity and compression. Even though the energy is there, the listener will quickly tire of the repetitiveness. Not Bad, but i'm sure you can improve it for the future.

[Link's Awakening - Wake up]

Yet another great Job!

The flow in this track gave me a surreal feeling after the first segment, although piano melodies are slightly piercing to the listener. But you made a brilliant comeback with the backbeat, I loved your choice of percussion. Like I've mentioned before, you're choice of reverb brings the song a special depth.

Another great one.

Thanks man, I noticed that piano was a bit loud after I uploaded it...It seems to sound different in .mp3 form then on the program I use...but thanks again for the generous words :)

[Freezeman Seven]

Excellent Job

Beautiful work with the stringed instruments, you added the perfect amount of reverb. The chimes add another dimnesion to this piece of music. Im not sure if this was in the origonal mix, but the "call and answer" technique that you used in the chorus gives a sense of forward motion.

All-around great work 7heShocker, I would like to see more!

7he5hocker responds:

Megaman stuff is hard because the original precussion is so weak, I basically have to improvise in my own. but I'm glad you liked it :D

[Teach Me]

Great inspiration and energy in the song.

I knew that this song deserved a 5.0 beacuse of its greatly inspiring groove, and the self-control as far as the backbeat was appropriate all the way through. It's mysterious rythym and melody bring the listener a sense of enigma and the unknown.

Great choice of notes and speed, you seem to have nailed this piece, great work!
