Ahurac's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tear's Theme (SjälTale) - LapisTheWol]

Sounds cool. The strings are a little bit cheap, try to teak the ADSR enveloppe if your plug-in allows. It has some mixing issues but nothing serious. Be careful the synth at 1:04 is really loud.
Really cool job, well done,

LapisTheWolf responds:

tysm!

[My Collection!!!]

Pretty cool. Sad the bass is a little bit quiet, you should have sidechained the whole thing so it could have got more pumping.
Great piece of music, gg,

~ Ahurac

Prutte responds:

Thank you for the review! I'll try being more bold with the sidechain in the future!

[Escape]

The kick is pretty weak. It lacks of sidechain. The instruments are really cute and it has a nice vibe. It would fit really well in a platformer game or sth like that. Be careful when the piano hits after the first drop, it's a little bit out of context, I was like "okay, why tf is a piano hitting rn XD".
Keep it up man :),

This is two years late, but thanks for being the one who could actually tell me how to improve my music! I've since dropped the idea of composing music with my free time and instead picked up programming, but I'm happy to know my music wasn't completely terrible.

Thanks for helpin' out!

[D4nc3]

The melody is cool. The crash at 0:05 is not necessary imo. The kick is pretty weak. It lacks of sidechain, the effect which ducks the volume when the kick hits. It lacks of more elements. There's a weird gap at 0:58.

Dee-Djay-Decibel responds:

Didn’t know about sidechain before your response. Thanks.

[AniGleb - Rod of life]

The voice is not loud enough, we cannot really hear what it says. Melody is pretty nice. Hats are a little bit techno-sounding, not really dubstep. it lacks of sidechain of your instruments and OTT on your chords. Sad the song is not longer.

~ Ahurac

AniGlebGD responds:

Thanx, man, for review!

[Outside]

I'm chilling to the chords at the beginning ^^. You hats pattern is pretty robotic, is it intended? Your perc introduced at 0:27 is really loud compared to the rest of the song. It's meant to be simple but I believe it lacks of many instruments, like a reese bass, more layers for the chords, transition, fills, etc... Your lead at 2:19 is insanely good tho.

dustyfurniture responds:

Thx ^-^
I appreciate that.

[Attack!]

The instruments are not that bad, but the melody sounds really random, you should fix that. Some instruments like your piano are too much panned, be careful. Cool pattern tho.
Wish you the best,

~ Ahurac

ComposerXamtrack responds:

Thank you for your feedback!

[Join us for a bite- Biker_Hackerman remix (instrumental)]

The tom is definitely too muck panned to the left, be careful with that. Is this an instrument from Super Mario 64? It sounds like XD. Cool remix tho.
