Rainfallen's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Look Outside]

Too... happy... -twitch-

But I like it. Wide variety of instruments, good layering, vocal accompaniment. Dunno what else to say except kudos!

Whitey767 responds:

haha you can never be too happy :P
thanks man :)

[Just Me Playing Around]

Decent

Couple pointers:
I dunno if it's just a delay when you recorded but the layered parts seem to be a little behind. this may have been what you were going for, as it gives it a Latin feel, but in some parts the beat is a little off. Don't be afraid to play along to a metronome, as it will help you keep time better.
One other thing is the high notes are a little sour, maybe adjust the pressure you are using to play them?

Keep up the good work.

Kinsei responds:

Thanks man, yeah one of my biggest problems as a recreational musician is timing, lack of knowledge and practice.
I'll be sure to make sure to work on that timing and the sour notes.

This is a very helpful review, thank you

[Sky Adventure To the Ground]

Epic Reverb... unfortunately

Unfortunately the reverb takes away a lot from the song. I'd slap an eq on just for the EQ and tone it down a couple notches.
Otherwise, great song. Nice ambient feel and supporting percush.

Kirbyfemur responds:

Batch Imma giv joo a useles ratin on dis revoo, because it horble!!!! (Hehe thanks for the review dude =3)

[Dark World Orchestral]

Blast from the Past

I read the description... very disappointed. :p
Great song, I miss that game. Good work man.

Vonyco responds:

:P Well, you wouldn't want to have wasted your time reading one of my infamous long-winded descriptions.

[Structured Chaos]

Your Welcome for the Riffworks

I see your enjoying Riffworks. Your original solo was better, but I do like the Tool-style of this one.

Kirbyfemur responds:

Betch!

[Fixation (by ReFreezed)]

Great melody

Great melody, but lack of expansion leaves something to be desired. Nothing really changes until a minute and a half in. Try layering (bring in another instrument that complements the original, and keeping it throughout the song, or for a while), because the melody is awesome, but it needs something more to go along with it.

ReFreezed responds:

I might try adding another instrument. Thanks for the suggestion. I've probably listened to the song so much that I've gone deaf. :)

Thanks for the review! It means a lot.

[Arrival of the Unwanted]

Interesting... very interesting...

Little repetitive, but I like the unique sounds and overall tone/feeling. Your comment on the song is further intriguing, whether it was posted for comedic purposes, or if it is the stem of your inspiration, I don't know, but it's an interesting concept nonetheless.
Gotta ding you for the repetition though, I do like the 'untold story' behind the song though.

xxUltimaWeapon responds:

I can be pretty repetitive. Glad you liked the description lol. The weirder the better. :D

[A Festering Infection {Creepy}]

Chills

I liked this; well done, dialog simplistically deep, but the girls voice kinda annoyed me (not sure why, moms voice was spot on). 4/5

Hnilmik responds:

Thanks! I was pulling for the additional meaning with the dialogue~

XD And yeah, I can see how the girl's voice is annoying. It kinda makes me glad that she gets off'd.

[Make me trip with headphones]

Nice

Transitions need a little work, but nice tunes. Finally something thats not so damn repetitive. That part at 2:45 is SICK. Nice ending.

silvanos responds:

Thanks man!

[Ultimatum With Intro (demo)]

Oh Hell

Wow. I like what you did with the light intro to heavy melody. I don't know how things were recorded, but the drums tone are flat-sounding and the guitar needs some sort of equalizer adjustment. Is there two guitars (left and right)? Very nice job if so. Occasionally sounded like the guitars sped up/drums slowed down, or something; a little out of sync in places.
Considering how bad ass it was though, I'll forgive most of this. Looking forward to some more :) [4/5]

xeran3 responds:

yea i noticed the guitars slow down a bit but i thinks its ok for a demo. Im not sure what to do with the guitars' EQ yet...still working on it. and Yes there are 2 guitars. The one on the left is me and the other is our other guitarist. But thanx for the review. Ill post the second part here soon.
