Miston's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Old School]

Wow! It really reminds me of one of your older tracks and it's nostalgic. The pluck synth complements a background in this track and the mastering is really good. I also like the bass synth in it. The only thing I found weird in this track is the ending. I think you could've just removed that bassy drop at 3:11. Anyways, this track is the awesome piece. :D

I always want to end my songs somewhat differently xD

[The Spectre of the Marionette]

Wow! This is a really catchy piece of classic music. I like how the orchestration makes the whole piece spooky and it perfectly captures the feel of ghost castles. I think it really doesn't have to sound more complex or epic, because there's a theme in the track. The only part that sounds weird to me is a part from 1:21 to 1:29. I found this part weird because it sounds like a clutter of tones and chords. Even if this is just my only debate with the track, this track is absolutely perfect. It's really goofy and good for mystery TV shows. Great Job :)

10/10

Thanks! GL for the contest too!

[Concept of Love(DnB reedit)]

This is a really cool track. I love the way how the song begins, with an 8bit-ish sound effect you put in it. This makes for an awesome beginning. I love the drops at 0:25 and 2:18 even more, with a DnB beats that make up for the other synths in them. I don't know why I like these two parts so much. The transitions are actually really smooth for me. The only flaw I have with this track is the dubsteppish part at 1:33. I don't like the growl in it and I think the beat in that part makes the song feel slower. But otherwise, an awesome and preety catchy reedit of one of your songs "Concept of Love". Amazing Job. :)

9.8/10

Thank you,Im glad that you liked it :)

[PvZ - Zomboss (Vitxer Remix)]

Preety interesting remix of Zomboss song from Plants v.s Zombies. I remember this game a while ago. I really like when you used "genre-change" in the song. It's like a mix between "glitch hop" and "trap". I think you could've mastered the remix or equalize the instruments better. Also some parts sound a little generic and simplistic. At least the whole piece is as coherent as the original piece made for a video game. Good job, Vitxer. :)

7.3/10

Vitxer responds:

Thanks for your review, it helps me a lot for my next projects. :D

[Keep Me Awake]

I like the atmosphere in this song and it somehow makes the song feel alive in some parts, but the way you arranged all the instruments makes the track feel preety repetetive. The ending sounds really creepy. It sounds like the song is loosing signal when being played on radio. I don't like name of this song either. I think you could've executed the song better.

4.5/10

RedSoul92 responds:

Thanks for the feedback, I'll work on it.

[[SkiT] Tears Rolling Up]

I really like the beginning of the song, but as the song goes on, it starts sounding quite repetetive and the transitions are preety weak. It also sounds too simplistic and sequence of parts is not really consistent. For me, it's not really bad, but it's not something special.

DaMastrofSkiTsees responds:

Okay. I purposely didn't come back to this comment until I improved somewhat since this track (I needed to wait until the novelty of the track died out in my head). With hindsight, I personally think the beginning is okay, but not special. I'll admit, the transitions are basic white noise. This was partially due to me not knowing how to make good transitions (I still don't), and I think the white noise is a good way to avoid risking having them sound over the top. The riser that I made in the track was cheesy at the time, but it kinda fit the vibe that the rest of the track has. The repetition was partially deliberate, but at the same time, I had no idea how to mix things up without shattering the conventions of House music. It might not be something special, but it was a huge leap forward compared to the track I made before this. Thanks for your input :^)

[Las Cebollitas]

This is an amazing mix between tango and trance. The first third really reminds me of Oxygène. Xylophone melodies sound like mobile ringtones. I also like an accordion sound you used in the track. The part from 2:33 to 2:40 sounds a bit weird for me. For me, it's something unusual and interesting in electronic music. It's like two songs by Jean Michel Jarre and Astor Piazzolla mashed up together. My favorite part is the ending. ;)

AzulJazz responds:

Thx for your detailed comments friend

[Inspiration]

I adore this track. It's so dynamic, changing and fun that I can't even complain about anything in it. It may be simple but it's filled with many chords that might get in my head. I'm a fan of songs that change their styles. Great job.

AzulJazz responds:

thank you very much
