Fro's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Shameless (Kris Sumara remix)]

~ Review Request Club ~

My last audio review for the week and I found it to be a great one to end on. The introduction was done really well and got me hooked into the submission. The song itself got a little repetitive, but never really got terrible.

I wasn't watching towards the end of the song and I thought that you had an error because the beginning almost sounded exactly like the ending. That's not bad, but the ending really wasn't there. It just ended right in the middle of something. Some sort better series of notes might have made this better. Pretty good all around though.

(There are too many 9's in a row...)

I wanted to make my intro the same as my outro because I want it to be mixable for other dj's like me.

The very first note reminded me of Resident Evil. :P

It was pretty good all around. I really enjoyed listening to it and it was very relaxing. I think one of the below reviewers said it best when they said it took their breath away. It was just one of those nice and relaxing songs.

Instruments were great, but it almost sounded like a few notes were off here and there. I really don't know much about music so that might be misinformed. Still sounded off to my ears in a few spots though.

Overall, very good and relaxing.

[Space Station Pause Scree]

~ Review Request Club ~

This was like a musical orgy to my ears. Just the back and forth from the left headset to the right headset made my head bounce. It was very cool and spacey sounding with headphones on.

This would be a very good pause menu musical piece. It would also be great for just the gameplay itself. It has a lot of variety and sounds great. Even though it's really short it loops perfectly meaning that it would be good for a game that would have it played over and over again. Good work.

[Mortal Kombat (RMX)]

~ Review Request Club ~

I must have a different opinion than the other reviewers. I loved how fast paced it was and loved how you made an old song original in your own way!

The vocals really surprised me. I didn't expect them to be there at all and I thought it was awesome the way that you used them. Perhaps introducing the vocals at the very intro could have made me more prepared when I heard them later on.

The ending was pretty cool as well. You usually hear songs ending abruptly or with a fade out, but the way that you did it was really cool and original. I liked this song a lot. Great job.

wow thanks :p

It sounds like it would be great background music so great job there. I'll have to admit that it had a great sound and even though it got repetitive it never really got boring. Actually it was a pretty fun song to listen to.

The vocals were great and I don't think the submission would be very good without them as it tends to break up the repetitiveness and adds a nice touch of variety in there. It could actually be several minutes shorter and probably be just as good if not better though.

Thank you as always)

~ Review Request Club ~

Great job! A very original sound along with a lot of good variety. There were a lot of cool effects and the vocals in the submission really added a lot to the overall production.

The bubbly sound in the beginning was really cool and I had never heard anything like it in a song before. This is good all around and it's probably my favorite audio that I listened to today. Keep up the good work.

As I said... Not everything was of my creation... Though it may sound good... I can't take all the credit here... I'm glad you enjoyed the mix though and I hope to put out a few songs from my album in progress! Thanks for taking a look! ^_^

[4x4 Tea Party]

~ Review Request Club ~

This has a great original sound to it, but it really needed more content. It's all beats and could really use some more instruments and sounds here. By itself it can get rather repetitive and boring.

I really thought I was listening to the same sound loop over and over after awhile since there really wasn't much variety. It's really all I can think about saying about this submission. It had a different sound to it, but not enough variety.

[A Fallen City]

~ Review Request Club ~

I listened to it quite a few times in a row, but noticed that I never really came up with anything to say about it. It wasn't the best that I heard and it wasn't anywhere close to being bad by any means. To me it just seems like another forgettable submission that I'll hear many times again in the future when I listen to the very familiar sounds. It's nearly impossible to create an original sound though.

The quality was good and the song itself was good, but like I mentioned before kind of forgettable. Perhaps a few more different sounds could have made me more interested in the submission. I don't really know about this one to be honest though.

[Shattered Reflections]

I see what Haggard was saying with the whole quality thing. The sound that this gives off does make it sound like it has a little bit of lower quality in certain parts, but it's not really noticeable if you listen to the submission as a whole.

The piano was really good and I enjoyed it very much. It really sounds like something professional that you would hear at a concert or whatever. I guess I'm trying to say it's something you would hear being played live.

Have you thought about adding some other instruments into this as well? For some reason I have a gut feeling that an electric guitar would sound good with this. :3

[Joker Tape 1]

~ Review Request Club ~

I personally didn't like it that much because of the presentation. The voice itself was a good impression of the Joker, but the quality of the file wasn't too great. First off I found it too quiet to enjoy even when I had my volume up too high so perhaps you need to speak up a bit.

The person that you are talking to sounded too close to the mic. The total opposite actually. When he made noises or talked you could hear that nasty pfff sound that you get from wind hitting the microphone. He also didn't sound believable whatsoever.

So if I was just reviewing based on the voice of the Joker then I would have gave it a 10/10, but based on the other voice and the quality of the submission this probably deserves around a 6/10. I'll be a little nice and add an extra point though.
