Payton-Petkus's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Crusader]

I'm sorry, but this isn't exactly my cup of tea. There was no apparent melody and no strong remember-able bassline. I just can't give a good rating to a song that doesn't meet my normal standards. Sorry If I'm being too harsh.

[The Great Trump Wall]

10/10 would Trump again

[Carny Cant]

Although the song was ok, the pitch bend in the song is a little too much for me. The drums weren't too great either. I normally don't give bad ratings T.T
3/5

AliceMako responds:

Thanks for listening.

I really like the chord progression. It is rather repetitive, but I think if you added vocals it would sound perfect. Just make sure you take a brush on the idioms if you ever use vocals. Good luck creating music!

Kyron20 responds:

Okay! I tried making it less repetitive, but when I try to add a B segment to the drop or a new part to the song just after getting inspiration, I find that the song doesn't sound as good after adding it. I agree I could have added vocals, but I didn't have the idea when I was making this. Also, I don't know anyone who would do vocals for me. Thanks for the review!

[Thiscom - Pulse [House]]

Very well made! :) The pitch bend in the beginning is a little much (That's what people didn't like), but I still enjoyed the song.

[Game Theory Opening ShortMix]

Very well mixed! Nothing to really say here, because it is just so good!

Vahnson responds:

thanks for the feed back.

[Thoa]

Here is my full out review.

0:00 to 00:30

[-] The mixing is pretty good.
[-] The very close to ambient sound is very nice.

00:30 to 1:30

[-] The jump to the very punchy synth to rather muffled was awkward
[-] The mixing is still very good. I really like the drum choices.
[-] It is nice that there are people on NG that still use a melody bass at the same time

1:30 to 2:00

[-] Very smooth transition.
[-] I love this clean synth. This section was very well done.
[-] The drum choice was perfect

2:00 to 2:30

[-] I like all the synth choices that you have
[-] I personally don't like how you made the octave go higher with the main synth. Just keep the (Subbass?) going up the octave.
[-] Still some pretty strong drumds. But maybe use multiple drums leading to the drop

2:30 to 3:00

[-] NO! The drop had so much going for it! It felt like you were on the right floor but the jumped out the window (Translation into real English: It had so much going for it, but then it sounded like it failed.)
[-] Although the mixing was good, it wasn't good enough for the drop.

3:00 to 3:43

[-] The mixing was [once again,] good. But it didn't have that feel-good vibe at the end like most songs do. Trust me, I have the same exact problem. It is hard to have a song that makes you "feel-good." But if you want your mixing to be mind- blowing, it must have this feeling.

Overall thoughts:

[-] I could feel the EnV inspiration.
[-] It was a pretty good song. You have demonstrated a good knowledge of music.
[-] I just think that there are a few things that could use some tweaking.

3.5/ 5 stars
(I hope you find my rating fair)

Wow, thanks for the detailed review :)

[Science Blaster (Game Theory song) ~imadjinari remix]

Great song to remix. I normally don't like remixes, but I just couldn't help myself. This is great. No offense, but I personally didn't like how the notes came together at 2:00. Other than that section, the song was exceptional!

[Jump ( NAruto Inspired)]

Please note that I am being as critical as possible so you can be a key person in the Newgrounds portal:
The mixing was done pretty well. The drums were exceptional. I also liked the number of layers in your music. There was one "awkward" pitch that was used as a drum, I think. It did make me want to take my headphones off. Although you chose 2 very nice chords, nothing much happened. Newgrounds is very picky with the melody, and there wasn't one that appeared in this work. I melody is crucial because this is what gets people to look at your music more.

ok will do bro thanks
