DistortionResonance's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Phantom Zero]

"Phantom Zero"

First things first; hello! And thank you for that review!

The guitar tone in the beginning is very sleek, very nicely put together. The "glitches" that I hear in it sure make it sound like you put quite a bit of work into the intro, which always makes me happy.

You have a great beginning, and then this sound effect that sounds like the drums and everything should immediately follow after, probably with a really nice bassline. But, I had to wait another 8 bars or so before the drums came in... no bassline though. Add more instruments at break-ins, it makes the song seem that much more dramatic :D

This song is very dirty, very demented... but it seems like it belongs in space. Or in an acid trip. Whichever comes first, lol.

Good work, I thoughrougly enjoyed this track :) You did a good job on it!

When me and my bud get another song finished, I'll be sure to keep you posted so you can check it out :)

See ya later, and good luck with music! 10'd, and 5'd!

Karco responds:

You're welcome for the review. =P

Yeah, this is one of those spooky, spacey, be-patient kind of songs. Whenever I try to remember it, I actually can't, because it's so waaaaaaaaaay off from the style of songs I normally make and listen to. XD

So thanks for reviewing. Glad you like it so much! =D

[Factory (FAKTRY)]

"Factory"

Oh man, I can't get over how minimal this is! This is something so... so... awesome! So minimalistic! So "I'm a gremlin who doesn't take shit from anyone", you know? I could have this going for hours upon hours, man. Awesome ambient/industrial stuff.

10'd and 5'd, man. You really deserve it with stuff like this :)

Could you check out (and maybe review) the song of me and my friends called "Vampires Dream"? We'd appreciate it if you did :)

Idiosyncratic responds:

Many thanks man. That's an honor, and I'd love to review his work.

[Pulse Core Beat Loop]

"Pulse Core Beat Loop"

What can I say, this truely is techno. Even though I am persuaded to believe that not too much of the distortion present in the track is intentional :( Speed up the techno a bit so its good and dancey, and add some more random percussion.

Then you, my friend, would have a techno club hit :D Good stuff. I actually enjoyed it a lot, even though it was a short loop. Keep it up! 10'd and 5'd.

Thanks for checking it out and reviewing, and thanks for the great review! Glad you liked it, I'll be making more. I reviewed, voted on, and downloaded your song, it was great!

[Broken Toes]

"Broken Toes"

Oi, that name sure gives me that feel that this track is gonna be messy :P

The production in this track is nothing less than awesome. Great quality in from the tracks beginning, straight to the end. Even though I noticed that you sampled the AMEN break in there, and thats a little... overused.

Wow, I really have nothing to say about this track other than it is straight grade A awesomeness. Keep this up, 10'd and 5'd!

Could you check out the song on my audio page called "Vampires Dream"? I'd appreciate it if you did :)

[Electronosis]

"Electronosis"

Very nice filter on the bass synth in the beginning, it gave it that nice "I'm gonna build up and be awesome later on in the song". The drums you used are very high ended though; they really could use some good, thick bass, you know?

Other than that, you've got yourself a good track! Keep doin' what you're doing!

[*+VG+* Peaceful Nights +*VG*+]

"Peaceful Nights"

Very retro! I love that feel, by the way. This reminds me of the good old days when I played those SNES RPGs and stuff like that :) Very nice "wood like" instrument backing up the entire track, it adds a great feel to the mix. Seriously, I wanna go play some games now :O

Overall, you guys did great. Awesome backgrounds, superb mastering, and a seriously chilled melody. Sick. 10'd, 5'd, the whole works :D I hope you guys go far with this.

DJ-DaVinster responds:

Hey, thanks for the review!

That's what I was going for. I accually made this song all by myself, I was gonna show my friend the song today (Jan. 29/07), but I got sick... How ironic? I'm glad I made you feel that way. :)

Thank you, but as I said before, this was all made by me, and some help by playing RPGs all day. XD

I'll check your song right now.

Bye!

[Rush 2049 Main Menu]

"Rush 2049 Main Menu"

Remix, eh? I've never heard the original, so I can only really comment on your instrument choice :(

I liked the beginning of the song, the toms and everything gave a nice battle/badass feel. Like, you are in the middle of a warzone or something.

Everything in this song is great, but that dirty lead synth you have is too loud. Don't get me wrong, I love my dirty synths. But, when they are loud enough to make you think that there is distortion in the mastering of the track, you need to turn it down :(

Other than that, you did good! I could see this being used in a movie soon, just you wait :)

10'd and 5'd! Good work!

Could you drop by me and my friends audio page and review the song "Vampires Dream"? We'd really appreciate it if you did :D

Envy responds:

Thanks, I reviewed your song, it was very nicely done XD. Yeah, the lead in this wasn't the best choice. I was trying to figure out how to "clean it up" before i posted it, but figured just leave it out it is. I wish it was crisper, and yes, quieter. I wear a headset at all times, so what you hear and what i hear are totally different things, but i do think the lead is far too loud, and not crisp enough. Maybe an octave up could have cleaned it a little.
