AKACCMIOF's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Red Apple]

Dancey indeed!

Very fresh: some mixing pointers though.

Add some verb to your guitar and the sax, it'll just give them some more space in the mix. Equally, the drums could do with some verb and perhaps a less crisp snare, it all sounds just a tad artificial.

However on the whole a wonderful piece!

Thanks for the refreshing review!!

Dance on.

[Antiskill- I Like People(]

Very nice, but a few points to work on.

You're quite clearly a dance producer, the drums and high reg synths were all nice and the piece had a gradual flow. HOWEVER, these are the dubstep charts and I'd reccomend you screw this track up a bit more (bitcrush distortion, sudden changes, synths that more large distances very quickly etc, and maybe glitch up a bit). Be interested to see what kinda a dubstep producer you could be though. The dance/ house influence seems to be a pretty winning ingredient in the scene atm, Wubs need more prominence though.

YakovlevArt responds:

I understand what your saying, this is not what most dubstep sounds like, this is true.
I just wanted to try doing it a different way. I will still add perhaps the "wub" in the sub bass in the final product. I will try to make it more distorted and add more effects, but still keep these layered synths and such in there =P

Thanks for the review =]
Much appreciated.

[My first song thing]

Neds depth, but a good start.

The drums are pretty nice, but the wub is quite obv a WIP, I'd reccomend distorting it quite a bit more (w/ distortion/ bitcrush/ granulator) needs some more sub bass IMO, and the wub needs some more variation, but that'll come as you develop them and branch out. Liked the garage touch to this track keep it up, but clearly a starting point. (though I'll be keen to see how you develop)

eimyz responds:

Thanks a lot for the criticism, I'll try to improve.

[|\||_| Eden]

Not bad, good synths.

However, your wub needs bass OR you need to sidechain it with a heavy sub. The drums were good, but normally a DS snare has more verb. I'd also reccomend workin on some more wubs. What program do you use? :)

Numi responds:

Thanks for the review! Constructive criticism is always boss :D I'mma PM you so I can ask a few questions. Glad you thought it was decent! :D

Vocals need some work.

Maybe bitcrush, maybe more 'verb, but it just sounded stalker-ish rather than deep and guttural. Good potential though.

AngelofPeace responds:

Thanks for the input.

[Time Apart]

Kick arse.

Maybe the bass drum could be rounded off a little? Bit more EQing to take down the resonance on that thing. All in all great though.

bobiscoo32 responds:

Thank you so much man! All great suggestions (especially on the bass kick, I've been trying to find a way to add a reverb with no wet sounds that still sounds good to no avial). By "that thing" do you mean the snare because i could do that easily (PM me if it is please). Once again man, thanks, now ill go check out your tunes :)

[Limited Reach_demo]

Loved it.

Drums/ percussion all lovely, loved the basses, though some need work, because they stick out. I felt the pads may have been too soft. Great vox though. Bring the pad up when everything's in I think, make it more mid-ish as well perhaps? Felt a little tinny. All in all great though.

Th0ma5 responds:

Thank You very much, these are some great tips, will surely look on to them as I continue to finish this tune!
Thanks again!

[I Am The Dubgineer]

A lot of positive points.

Great drums, great ideas, great atmospherics. The mid basses need some work though, the early mid bass overpowered the mix, I felt it should have been slightly lower. Liked it very much from 1:14 after. Maybe some more mid-basses using distortion, granulators etc? Lot of potential.

deendeon1000 responds:

thank you for the positives, ill work on the mid- basses
