Triented's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Unarmed Remix (DJPrototype)]

Are you producing these? If you're DJing them you're just mixing.
I will say this though, too much flange, for the speed the flange was, it should've been atleast twice as long for it's decay.
Enjoyed listening, cool that you got permission and all, but if you didn't put this through a DAW then I don't feel like there's much originally or anything special about it..

[Fade Away (DJPrototype) Remix]

Your music needs a bit of love bud, you overgained some things and compressed things wrong but I totally feel your love for the genre bro. A sharper sidechain may be needed for the pad so that soprano synth can really shine. I wouldn't have flanged everything you did, but you did good man. 4/5 voted 5 to counter the 0 bomber.

[The Untrusted]

Classify this as videogame man, it sounds VG enough. You're obviously at a stage where you are learning. You made poor choices in instruments, but I gotta say, your composition shows some promise... so long as you begin to grasp song structure man. It's enjoyable though through the eyes of the creator, and I like the effort you put into transitions; but ease off the FL samples with a song like this buddy. It's OKAY for a starter. 2.5
3/5

[Working Out]

Downtempo, you'd get more feedback from the ambient section on this song in my personal opinion even though this is techincally just low tempo house. The silky transitions are great, fucking A man you can definitely make some chill lounge music for sure. That's talent man.

[Runaway]

Yo pretty solid recording man, gotta give ya props. FL studio is a lot more powerful than people think. I like the progressions you used and the balance in the instruments is a bit well, there's maybe one tweak I would do but I don't really know how to complain it, but it's EQ.
Good luck on the music man 4.5/5 5/5

LexRodent responds:

Thanks for listening.
I think I know what you mean about the EQ. There may be some "mud" on it.
I'm still learning how to get rid of it without sacrificing too much frequency range.

[Undertale- Heartache (8-bit cover)]

8-bit cover, not much critiquing ability on my end. Do I hear reverb though? I dunno man.
As a cover though good job dude.

GunTurtle responds:

Oh.. yeah. you do hear reverb. The plugin has it by default. Probably should fix it...

[Jack Mushroom -]

Scouted buddy, don't know why you wouldn't be. You got some good shit here man.

[Bells party]

Scouted,
You've got potential man. (:
Keep up your exploration into the world of music, it can be your only friend at times.

For the song, I must say I like your synths, I like your choice of sfx, I like your different instruments chosen. You're a younger artist, but you've definitely got a hold of the basics. Now expand, music is love kid.
This track is a 4/4 4/4
Have fun.

[Taking the Wind]

Ambient is where this belongs man. Atmospheric, slow, I'm waiting for the kick though, but so far yeah it's sounding ambient to me.
The tempo is half beat or slow, either one, it's nice so far.
1:00 right now.... the buildup.. oh I hear the drums very subtly kicking in.
Are they delayed?
Oh I hear a subtle little synth, you're making this buildup very sus- THERE WE GO 2:10
Now I hear ya, this would fit well into a videogame. Ambient though is how I feel this would fit still, it's a nice chill walk around in a mech on mars type of music. haha... nice dude (:
4.5/5 5/5, have fun with your music man, it's my life.

Satyrcake responds:

oh man, thanks for taking the time to write a complex review, digging your thoughts on it. yeah I wasn't too sure about the Genre, mostly because of the way i write music, it's all learnt from VG themes and tracks, so even the more ambient parts i feel fit more in a VG than an album of ambient songs?

I dunno man, thanks again.

[Industrious Terrestrial]

To start out, this is an obvious style of it's own. You are not following anybody's rules but your own. What do I see when I hear this song? Well shit, I'm thinking about an old videogame I played called starsiege. I love your choice of acoustic drums, this sounds a bit more ambient to me though man. This really though is quite a solid song, so here's a 5 for ya man. Definitely VideoGame reminding. I love the white noise you put on your little acid bass around 2:00. I can't really critique this song man, I'm enjoying it. That means you've made a GOOD song dude. 5/5

alternativesolution responds:

Hey man, I appreciate the kind words. Glad this stands out on its own so well. Haha I've never played Starseige before, but I think the song title had something to do with it coming to mind...:p Anyway, I'm always up for feedback, thanks so much!
