Fro's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[[dj-Jo] She (Aftermath Mix)]

~ Review Request Club ~

Yeah, after thinking for awhile this one will probably go on my favorites now. I almost always save my favorites for heavy metal songs or songs from friends, but this was just too good to pass up.

Before I knew it (honestly) I was basically dancing to this in my seat. That's a great thing because it's hard to find a song that will do that to me, but the bad thing was I'm at work in the office... and I didn't know I was doing it until like 2 minutes later. >.<

Ha, so it's very good. I wish the best of luck in the contest and I hope this wins as I can't see how it wouldn't.

[[Assios] - Midnight]

Ah, I do remember listening to some of your older stuff (back when I was Corky52) and let me say that you have improved a lot since then. What was that sound that you used in the beginning? Was that the crowd cheering? Either or it did sound like that and it sounded awesome. I think you could have used some voices here and there.

Perhaps a count down somewhere early in the song. Maybe even something around 30 seconds saying, "Here we go." So yeah, I think the only way to really improve the submission would to add some small vocals here and there, but other than that it sounded great.

Assios responds:

Yeah, I've improved a lot since those older songs ;P When I now listen to my older songs like electric snake, toxic snake etc..., I think they're really bad

Hmm, maybe I should try to add some voices to see how it is.. I've never used voices in my songs before, so maybe I should try it.

Thanks for the review! :D

[Deep_Town_Blues [Box-Kill]

Ha, this song reminds me of an old cop/detective movie where they are playing that cheesy music in the beginning to set up the introduction of the movie. It also makes me think of an old and dark club where people are drinking/smoking and there is the small band in the background that people really aren't paying that much attention to.

The backing does get a bit repetitive, but other than that it was well mixed and the guitar had enough variety to make the song enjoyable. Pretty good all around and I enjoyed listening to it. It made me smile a little bit for some reason.

Box-Killa responds:

haha yeas old cop movies all the way :D thanks for the review, yes to everything lol.

[Sapphire's '09 Voice Demo]

~ Review Request Club ~

By far the best voice acting I've heard on newgrounds. Not only the best female voice acting, but the best voice acting hands down. It's seriously voices like these that make me wish that I was good in flash because you can do an endless amount of projects with these voices.

You had a great variety of voices that would be very useful in many situations and the fact that you added sound effects in the submission really adds to it and really shows what your voice would sound like with the ambient stuff going on in the background.

There isn't anything to improve on here. Great job.

[Cast From the Stars (Chill MX)]

This song sounded really good all around. I loved the introduction the best as it just seemed more layed back then the rest of the song. It had a very relaxing sound to it all around even though it did pick up later on in the song. Very original sound to the entire thing as well.

In terms of a flash there are some parts that would be great for an introduction, parts in the flash itself, but I think it would be a great piece for the credits of a movie. (Not the whole song though unless the credits were that long)

I haven't heard the original and I probably won't, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that you did it justice. Maybe the only thing that I didn't like was how long it was. It really didn't take much if anything away from the song, but I just guess I'm impatient. :P

Bracksta responds:

ya the original is at a trance bpm and this one at a hip hop pace. The original was not as long. sorry to make you wait, lol. I get impatient to, i understand. Thanks for all of the great feed back Fro, i'll look forward to your future reviews :D.

[Noisy - Lifehouse: Beacon]

~ Review Request Club ~

Pretty cool song. The first impression that I get from this song (and the same one that most people are getting from it) is that it's very relaxing. At the same time as it's relaxing it also has a sort of energy to it though. All around it gives it this happy/relaxing feeling where you can just enjoy the song and feel good about it.

I can't really think of anything else to say about it because I think it's perfectly fine the way that it is. Can't really critique it if I can't find anything wrong in my own opinion. :P So good job and keep up the good work.

INoisy responds:

Thank you very much, cheers man! Relaxing is what I was going for. ;D

[Aliens_On_Earth [Box-Kill]

~ Review Request Club ~

888th audio review and a pretty good one to use it on I might say. :)

Very cool effects all around. I can see the alien theme for sure in this submission. I can see something hitting the ground and creating a cloud of dust. People slowly start to get closer to see what it is. That's when the aliens slowly start to emerge from the dust and they aren't very friendly. People start to run in fear as the aliens attack, which is represented by the song picking up there towards the middle/end.

I think it could be used in a lot of situations like that though where someone didn't know exactly what happened and then all of a sudden realized that they were in danger from something. You did a good job painting that image in my mind.

Great instruments and great sound all around. Good job.

[My Savior (Dance Remix)]

~ Review Request Club ~

To be honest I found little to say about this. My overall impression was that it had many generic sounds to it and it wasn't anything too special, but it wasn't bad by any means. It was also quite long and in some parts it seemed to be drawn out or it might have gotten repetitive in a few spots.

I did start bouncing my foot to song a bit as it was playing so it did have a nice beat and I did get involved a bit, but like I said I think that the song itself was a tad bit drawn out and wasn't anything too special. Sorry for the harsh words.

~ Review Request Club ~

DJ-Chilvan responds:

haha, no problem man! There aint nothin like harsh words in a review! As a matter of fact, the more 'harsh' words in a review, the better. The lead synths were basic, and that was because i couldnt find that 'right' one so i knew that i couldnt go wrong with a simple 8bit synth.
Thanx!

I agree that this song would be a very good match with a flash submission that needed some sort of RPG town song. The first thing that comes to mind is a sprite animation with Zelda sprites or something village like.

The song itself was very relaxing. It sounds like the type of music that I would like to fall asleep to. Actually, it sounds like something that I would expect to hear back in the day at high school (Oh god so many years ago) when we were forced to watch the high school band. I would secretly pretend that I didn't enjoy the songs like most of the other kids, but the real situation was actually I was just becoming very relaxed, which looked like I was being bored.

This song does exactly that and makes me think about all of that. Perhaps it did go on for a bit long as 6 minutes is quite long to listen to any song, but really other than that it sounds very good.

DJ-Chilvan responds:

ha, im sorry its a lil long but i had to do what i had to do ;). Thanx for the review, I agree, the song is very relaxing.
