Stargame's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lost In Her Eyes-eugenio.mRMX]

Whoa!

WHoaaa, now this is impressive. As this is the first song you've submitted here, I figured that it was gonna suck, but MAN I was proven wrong. Great synth work.. I think I heard a Squeeze effect on the piano that came in at 1:11, nice touch there... There's some great synth work in this one. It has several great melodies and such, I'm loving this man.

genee responds:

cheers ! :D

[Switch Back (Shitty Remix)]

INDUSTRIAL METAL

Dude, this reminds me of Nine Inch Nails. EVERYTHING is distorted, which would normally be a REALLY crappy touch, but you did this all perfectly. I think of NIN's new song 1,000,000 when I hear the guitar sound. I'd say that this is fairly good. btw, where'd you get those samples? I'm thinking I might remix this song now.

[Discovering Dreams]

Definitely better!

You're already improving. This one is far better than Starburst Paradise. You still need some work though. I actually like the beat for the snare and kick, that was a nifty beat... Ooh, the transition at 1:20 was EXTREMELY rough... I personally think it would've been a bit better without the fadeout and the sudden spazzmode of fruit kicks. This one has a nice orchestral bit to it... I'm convinced that you can compose, this one has some great composition (save the bad transition) for a beginning song. Just keep it up!

btw
Be careful when you use simsynth. It's actually very hard to use a simsynth sound effect and make it sound good.

Nightfirecat responds:

Kay, thanks for the suggestions.

[Starburst Paradise (Short)]

Well...

So, going into the music biz, eh? I apologize if I seem like a jerk when I say this, but you've got a long way to go man. It sounds about average for a first mix... All I've gotta say is PRACTICE. That's the best way to learn how to use FL. Just push buttons and twist knobs to see what they do. Test out every effect, tweak every synth around, and try learning some tricks for making a good layered synth or applying filter sweeps. Just keep on practicing man!

Nightfirecat responds:

Yeah, I know this one isn't great, but I didn't spend very long using FL for this one... And I had just figured out how to use patterns, so yeah...

[Doom [End of Days]]

Though it's simple to you, I'm impressed.

This one is DEFINITELY easy to like - it's got an excellent trancy melody with a lot of arps and gated synths. It's all very well blended, nothing sticks out too much. I particularly like the part around 3:39 (and before that) where the little soft beep and strings sort of trade places to catch the listeners attention. First you focus on the beep's melody, then all of a sudden the focus switches over to the string melody. I thought that was a neat little touch. Again man, nice job!

5/5, 9/10, fav'd, and DL'd.

SkyMarshall responds:

Yes? Well thats just cool. Im glad you appreciate it man :) I was afraid people might find this a little bit cheap and easy (which it is), and hate it. So positive feedback on this pleases the SkyMarshall. Thanks man:)

[PX9 B0UNC3 & cnb collab]

wtf?

OMGOSH ROFL. That was great man, I lol'd at that XD

[Encounter]

Lol, close encounters XD

It seems to me like you've been getting even better at sound synthesis! While I personally don't think this is your best song, a lot of the synths are VERY nice sounding. Everything is nice and clear (as usual), and a good deal of the synths are fairly soft, which adds to the atmosphere. Excellent job!

[Milk{Ethos}]

Wow...

I've decided, you're officially great. The mastering that you do in your tracks is amazing, everything always sounds extraordinarily clear. You've inspired me to go and get to working on some new music, man - it's not often that oneself gets inspired by an NG artist. Great job dude!

Mrmilkcarton responds:

Glad to help. If you need anything or want to talk add me up on AIM or MSN.

[Milk{Sytrus!}]

OH MY GOSH THANK YOU

FINALLY!!! SOMEONE ELSE KNOWS ABOUT SYTRUS' STRENGTH!

It's nice being able to hear some of the sounds that can be made with Sytrus - indeed, people underestimate it far too much.

Though this song is short, I think that you used all of Sytrus' capabilities extremely well - the sound synthesis was very well done, everything is nice and clear. Simply phenomenal man, great job!

Mrmilkcarton responds:

Songs just makes 2minutes go by so fast doesn't it? Glad you liked it.

[Responsibility in Actions]

Man, this is great....

Classical is definitely your fort'e, but I'm amazed at how well you do when you branch out. This seems like it has a little less of a shocking amount of emotion, but you put a brilliant groove into it - I found myself be-bopping around as I listened to this one. I simply love the melody... Nothing seems to stand out too much, I can hear every sound in it nice and clearly. I personally think it doesn't fall too much into the Drum N Bass category.... Most DnB has insane drums in it, with the focus being on the drums. I think this one goes a little more towards Metal or Hard Rock. Anyway, amazing job as usual!

5/5, 10/10 (do I ever give out lower scores? XD) and another DL.

P.S. I know that it gets pretty freakin' annoying when people ask you to make something different all the time, but may I suggest that you branch out every now and then? The results from the two songs of yours that I've heard where you branch out are phenomenal - I'm interested to see what else you can do.

ParishIsDead responds:

I am writing a new branch out now. Just to shut some people up, you know what I mean. I am being accused of sucking. I will show them what is what here at newgrounds.
