Ahurac's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Chanax23 - The Hotson]

I recommend you not to use FL stock samples, they are overused and pretty bad quality. Also there wayyyyy too much reverb on most of the track, be careful with this effect. The guitar introduced at 0:48 plays wrong notes. The bass on the drop is too loud and has a weird ducking effect which could be improved. Also you track lacks of sub frequencies, like on the kick.
Wish you the best for the future :) keep on producing,

what I will take into account thanks for commenting

[Corruption]

The gap between 2 bass notes like at 0:06 is a bit weird. The synth playing high pitched notes is pretty loud. Omg I love how things are turning at 0:33 :). At this point of the review I didn't listened to the drop yet. The buildup sounds cool but the sidechain is too heavy. On the drop the bass is cool but the kick is not present enough imo, you should mix down your track and remove that limiter on your master, also the hi-hats are cool but not really appropriate for me, I better imagine typical house offbeat hats.
In the end your song is really cool, good job :),

Mixing with only free and stock plugins is hard lol, I'm still learning :)

[Still Night]

The ducking on your bass is too heavy. Your progression sounds really cool. The drums and especially the snare sound weird, you should try new samples. Be careful your lead coming at 0:53 is loud af and I believe it makes the track clipping. The chords reminds me of Kirby OST, which is really cool, so well done mate.
Good luck in the future,

~ Ahurac

[Memories OST - Newgrounds, Old Nostalgia (Main Menu)]

Can't wait to see the project, it looks exciting! The main theme is really sad actually, is it desired? Also there's a wrong note in the arp coming at 1:17: this is the fourth note hitting in the second chord (the 20th note played by the arp, which is also the 24th, the 28th and the 32nd).
Good luck in the future my lad :),

This song was not actually meant to be sad, and it wasn't desired for that either. I tried to give it more of a nostalgic feel using Rhodes piano.

[1337 - men party]

Hats are really loud. It lacks of sidechain because the kick is not present enough. The ostinato is pretty nice. The plucky bass is also a little bit loud.

lokkie1337 responds:

loud hats - that's how it should be, plucky bass - not bass

[Battle]

Hey, what is the name of the original song?

[DnB Thing (W.I.P)]

The drums slap, well done for them. The bass is not really powerful, you should make it more fat. I encourage you to finish the project, it's really nice :).

~ Ahurac

mosstarr responds:

Thanks man I will ☺

[Polish cow 8 bits]

Ahhh cool some chiptune :). Everything is nice in your tune except some details: first your kick lacks of sub, it removes some power your tune would have with a sub on your kick. Secondly, it's a little bit repetitive, I know it's intended for this, but there's not many variations.
This is all I have to say, good job and I wish you the best,

~ Ahurac

[Dreamy night]

Hello again! I already gave you a feedback but here we go again :)
You bass is too loud. It lacks of sidechain. The chords at 0:29 definitely don't fit to the song, same for the arp, this is a little bit random sorry for that o_O. Anyway the drum beat is pretty nice.

~ Ahurac

unamedcreator responds:

Thanks for the feedback, yes this is definitely one of my experimental songs I should of tagged it as that,I was messing with the volume,you are probably right about the bass.

[Moving In Silence]

Good chill track. The melody is insanely well done, good job. Your hats are loud af, you should turn them a little bit down (your 808 too).
Wish you the best,

~ Ahurac
