sYrge's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Xtrullor - Ichor (Chael Remix)]

Wow! However surprised I am to see a new remix of a pretty old song, I am equally impressed at the quality of this remix :) The drums are hard hitting and it sounds very full and mixed together, except sometimes the basses don't really punch all the way through the mix, but other than that, this very solid. 4.5/5 m8 :)

Thanks!!! :D

[Dubstep Machine]

...... My first and only recommendation is to listen to music...

[Dex Arson - Bipolar]

Awesome!!! I love everything about this :) I love the mix between more trapsteppy plucky things and square riddim basses. Also i admire the variation between drops. It might be just a hair too compressed and the snare is way too loud in the outro, but that doesn't take away from anything. Nevertheless, 5 stars on this piece of art :D

[Volterix - Connection]

Wow! I like this even more than the last one, even just the production part of it. I do admit I should have taken into account that you have made many songs after earthsphere. I especially love the interjected 16th note basses in the first part of the drop. I can't find a single thing that I dislike about it. Amazingly done, man! you really earned my follow :)

Volterix responds:

Thank you very much! I appreciate the support!

[Volterix - Earthsphere]

Wow! I first stumbled on this song on your youtube video of this song but I had no idea you had newgrounds. Well, I absolutely love this song. It's my kind of dubstep, it's well made, it has unique sound design and structure, but it doesn't seem to be mastered all that well. It might be normalized to 0db, but I'm not sure, because everything that isn't that one peak sounds and looks really quiet on the newgrounds display thing. considering your exceptional music making skills you probably know something about mastering, so I'm not going to go too in depth, but do try to make your music spend more time up at 0db than this because it's quiter than other songs that are up to volume. Nevertheless, this song is very listenable and enjoyable. 4.5/5 stars easily. Nice job ;)

Volterix responds:

Thank you for the feedback! I'll take your advice and try to raise the master volume in my future tracks =)

[Vapor - Lockyn [Etzer Remix]]

This sounds super awesome, love the chords and everything. It sounds so distorted because it is clearly peaking and is not mastered well. it has to peak up to 0 db or it will start to clip. Sounds pretty fantastic otherwise :)

[ColBreakz - Reunited [Undertale Remix]]

Let me say right here: I LOVE THIS
I love all your leads and chords and pads, EVERYTHING!
Really nice diversity and mixing, as well.
One note about the musical aspect of it, however, there are some notes in the melody at the drop (about 2:39 ish) that are way out of place that make it very distracting. Now I'm not very familiar with the music from Undertale, but my guess is that you used a melody and put chords behind it. That can be risky, because if you don't have perfect pitch or something, it easy to not recreate chords from a video game to a DAW, but you gotta make sure that you have it spot on, or else it will sound weird.
Overall, very nicely done. Pm me about any questions, because i kinda went all out on this one xD

[SVMMIT - Take The Lead]

This is gorgeous, to say the least.
i love the intro-all the synths and everything, especially the part where all the downtempoey percussion comes in. The dropp fit perfectly, but my only problem is with the second one. I think that the snare for the second, since it's more of a drum and bass drop, should use a different snare sample (definitely a softer, even higher pitched one) entirely for that drop. Other than that, marvelous work:) keep it up!

svmmit responds:

thank u ♥

[Frozen Sakura]

This sounds super nice, love the snare. Everything blends together smoothly. Also, I tried to make one of my songs 4:20, but it did the same thing to me xD
