Fro's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[[LY] .-- Tempered Grace --']

Great job.

I enjoyed listening to this submission. It was pretty relaxing and just generally a fun submission to listen to. I thought that it was very simple, but you got it to work for you as it sounded great while not being too cluttered or anything like that. It wasn't too simple either as it wasn't too repetitive or boring. I think you found the happy medium with this song. Perhaps a couple of vocals would make this submission sound a lot better.

Overall - I can't really think of anything to make this much better than it was. Pretty good job all around. Keep up the good work.

Oi, vocals? :O Well I don't have the slightest clue on where to add vocals and I don't even have a mic atm, but I guess I could try it out sometime. :)

Thanks for the review!

[In the news]

Great job.

I loved the feeling that you give off with your author comments and the audio itself. The music was done very well and the vocals matched the song perfectly. I think you did a pretty good job on not making the music during the vocals too loud and vice versa. I could hear both of them perfectly fine without anything drowning anything else out. I also like the sound effects that you used in this submission.

Overall - I can't really think of anything to critique this submission on. Good job all around.

GlueR responds:

Thanks for the review! When I made this, I felt the need that this was an underrated subject that needed to be addressed. It's more of a in-your-face political statement than a song. I really think that music has to get over the stage of speaking mostly about love and sex (or in some genres the all so important question of what a pimp the singer is and how fast his rims turn after he stopped his car). The production for this one took quite some time, because I felt that the balances were a bit fragile, but I'm glad that in the end it came out OK. Thanks again for sharing your opinion (and for liking this)!

[Final Fantasy Girl V2]

Pretty good.

The instruments sounded really good, but there was a couple of points in the song where it sounded a bit muffled. I won't take any points off for it since I don't see anyone else say anything about it and it could just be my speakers.

The vocals and lyrics were also done very well. Perhaps the vocals were drowned out a little bit towards the end of the song, but it wasn't too bad. Perhaps think about adding the lyrics to your author comments? Sometimes everyone doesn't hear what is said and it could be useful to stop confusion with the lyrics at all.

Overall - Very well done and I can't really think of anything to critique on your submission other than the few minor things that I talked about. Good job and keep up the good work.

thanks alot for a great review :D

[Chaotic Freedom]

Hm not too bad.

I do like how it starts off slow and then starts to get faster as the song goes on. It just seemed too much like premade loops. I do like the sound of the song though. It's kind of darker and reminds me of a scary video game for the sega or another old console like that. I think you could have worked on the ending a little bit too because the crash cymbal that was used at the end didn't do justice to the rest of the song in my opinion.

Insanimation responds:

OK, thanks for the great review! I didn't really want it to sound like a premade loop, because it wasn't, but I guess it just turned out that way..

And I know where you're coming from with the ending being a bit anti-climactic.

[sad attept @ dnb]

A bit better.

This is by far better than your other two submissions that I just reviewed, but I still do think that it needs a lot of work. The song itself is very repetitive. You do start to mix it up a bit towards the end of the song, but you still have the same thing going over and over for the entire song making it have the same beat the entire time.

Overall - My biggest tip is to add variety some way. I don't know exactly how since I'm not really good with audio or music at all, but there should be some way to do it.

[avast wkyiylti]

Not too good.

I think that it's kind of funny the way that you explained it in your author comments. "a very annoying song that will kill you if you listen to it."

Ha, I don't think it's really that annoying, but I think I understand where you were coming from. If you wanted to make it annoying like that then you need more random noises in it.

If it's suppose to be a good loop for someone to use in a flash or something then I think it could be used. I think it could be used for a small part of a flash and just have it loop two or three times in a row. Probably in a flash that's for comedy.

I don't see it being to useful to listen to or to use other than that though because it's pretty short. If you make it about 10 seconds longer and add a couple of different noises in there then perhaps it wouldn't be too bad.

Overall - Not very good because of it's length, but it's not that bad of a loop itself.

suprising...

[episode 3]

Needs some work

It is rather short, but I'm going to stay away from that in my review. I didn't really enjoy this submission at all. It didn't really sound like anything and especially didn't make me think of myself sitting at the throttle and waiting to be deployed into the array of lasers and space ships. If anything it made me think of someone falling asleep at the wheel of a car and almost drives into a big rig truck, just to serve into another one. I do admit that it loops just about perfect though.

Overall - Kind of short and doesn't really sound like it would to appeal to many people. Keep up the work though.

[[S:C]Duel Under Three Moons]

Interesting.

It was very different and for that I think it's very good. It had an original sound to it. I liked how it changed up several times throughout the entire song. Apparently there were some vocals in there? I listened through two times and didn't hear them. :S Oh well lol, I'm really hard of hearing so I probably didn't catch them. I do think that it could have used some more (I'm assuming there is vocals in it) throughout the song. Perhaps something like a countdown from 3 to 1. For some reason I think of that when listening to this song. It kind of goes with the whole moon theme too.

Overall - Very different and a fun song to listen to. If there were vocals I didn't notice them at all, but I do think it could use more vocals throughout the song. Keep up the good work.

SymbolCymbal responds:

lol there really arent any vocals in there. its just a woman breathy moaning. like ahh.
im thinking of throwing in a queen of england speech in there. the three moons kinda signify that it isnt happening on this planet. we have on moon. or maybe over a three month period of time. i like being vague when naming songs so it will fit in the listeners head better.

thanks for the sweet review. RRC kix ass

[Sp1r1T - Pulse]

Ha yeah... repetition..

The entire thing was pretty repetitive, but obviously you knew that. I personally thought it sounded a little weird for some reason. The dun dun dun part. (The only way I could explain it sorry :P) It's not that bad though. It had a pretty catchy beat to it and it made my girlfriend dance in her chair so I guess it's good enough. :P

Overall - I think it sounded just a little off and too repetitive, but it was different and for that I will give it a good score.

Sp1r1T responds:

Well, I guess Electro House tracks are repetitive without Vocals lolol.

Thanks anywayz :D
