Oddler's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[the Composer]

Ahh, sweet

I'm so glad you made the song yourself. That's totally awesome you made the song for the Flash.

It's very soft and sweet. Lots of sensitivity in the song and emotion. <3

[Sonic 3 IceCap [Remake] (Demo)]

Good enough

It's good enough for an actual song. Don't quite need to remake it. This definitely sounds much different than the original and I like it when people don't make it too closely like the original and put more of themselves in there. Not bad.

DjOpposite responds:

Thanks for the review, man! :)

[The Darkest Hour]

Nice track name

although, it doesn't feel like it fits the tune. Some of it sounds good, some of it questionable. Overall i think it deserves about a 7 or so. A bit more fine tuning if you ask me...

Anyway, peace :)

[Celestial Pulse]

Was ok

This track is noticeably lower volume than maybe what it should be. Then again you could maybe have consciously did it for an effect since it does feel very soft sounding. The visual of Downy blankets come to my mind lol.

It's an OK tune and I don't really have any complaints.

Question...what program do you use to create your music?

kevs91 responds:

The volume is something I'm still trying to solve- when I record something (piano, for example), there's a limit to how loudly I can record it without very noticeable static and distortion popping up. So there's a max volume I can have that at, then I have to mix around that so it's still noticeable in the track and still fits with everything else, which means everything else is soft as well. I have a fade in at the beginning in the hope that people will turn it up louder than they normally would because the beginning is so quiet, and then when it gets to the actual volume the track is at it will be loud enough.

I use Garageband, and it's fine for what I do- mostly recordings, and then there's enough customization for the software stuff and the 3rd party synth things I use to make it not lame, as one would expect from a program that most people don't really know how to use correctly.

Sorry for the essay in response, and thanks for the review.

Not bad

Respect. I'm gettin' down to this! Butterscotch, yo!

Keep up the good work.

[guitar riff1]

Oh my

This may sound weird...but this tune really made me want to take up learning how to create music. You hit a unique sound and I totally think this piece kicks ass. It's sooo interesting sounding I gotta favorite this. I'm probably gonna download a program to make some music for fun too :D

STU-PIDASO responds:

well, thanks.

it is not really a song that i made, just an experiment.
it has prompted me to actually record a true song now.....perhaps even with lyrics.
(except i need someone else to sing it)

i recommmend getting something to make some music with. it is very fun, and as long as you like it...that is all that matters.

[silly guitar thing]

heh you don't like?

It actually sounds pretty good. There's this ethnic feeling to it. For the most part I think you under rated yourself. . .

Although, sometimes I do feel like something may be out of tune (and or) some beats aren't hitting consistently on beat. Hard to decipher. I'll let you make that decision :)

Overall, you undercut how you did and I think this was a pretty enjoyable tune.

UntitledWhite responds:

well, thank you for the honest review

i do tend to underrate myself sometimes... hopefully i can get over that.

glad you enjoyed it!

:-)

[[SR] Come On]

Cool

First thing that came to mind was something space-age like sound to it. Sounds real good. Great job. 9/10 :)

ShinRok responds:

IT does sound spacey XD

[Short Polysynth Loop]

Hmm

Could use much work. It's hard to classify this into a physical sound in my mind. Mostly due to it being so short it doesn't give me much to work with. I encourage that you expand it :)

[Short Little Piano Loop]

Not bad

The loop transition is slightly noticeable. It's a decent piano loop...I would rate HIGHER truly if it were longer. Loops to me don't get the best ratings even if it sounds good due to the less content less effort as some of the people that make songs that last a few minutes etc. It does sound pretty good though...

Multihunter responds:

About the transitions: I KNOW!! It's so FRIKKEN annoying... I just can't get it right, it's still much better than ones that I had. It's because of the programs that I had to use to get it into a .mp3. It's really hard to convert from MIDI to .wav, then to .mp3.

I know what you mean, but I'm just starting, and so far all I can think up is loops... this is a particularly short (and I think pretty good one).
I HAVE made a longer one: http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/liste n/139960

Well at least the title is fitting... I have trouble with my titles.
