YO MAN

Sweet, first to review! :)

First off, it sounds like you got some mixing experience under your belt. To have made the SFX yourself too is another indication of your production XP level.
The song has a sweet progression. The flurry of high hat and FX in the sound field make the song both fun and adds dimensions of coolness. Good Jorb, dude!

I can't wait to hear it as a song when you finish the piece :]

Icedragon200 responds:

Its what you get after doing 260+ projects, receiving mega headaches (Bad Mixes) and just trying have as much fun while you can.

I'll see what I can do with song. :3

hey!

This is pretty cool.

-Lower the hihats a bit
-Move into a four chord progression after a bit...it sounds like a build up or intro.
-tweak mixing for clarity in sections with layered atmosphere FX

Guitarmaniac3 responds:

See what you mean about its sounding like a build up, ill play with the mix and try a few chord progressions, would adding a guitar be too much??

Thanks for the review, iv not be making this sort of stuff for long, good to see someone thinks its cool :)

uhhhh

Newgrounds audio is more a public resource for the flash artists here than a place to promote bands.
Submitting work here grants you a creative commons license which allows free private, non commercial use of the song. To limit those remaining rights would go against the Newgrounds philosophy of open creative material!

Anyway, cool song man.

Evil-Ben responds:

I'm not intending to limit the "remaining rights" covered in the creative commons license, I'm protecting my own rights not covered in the license! Of course I'm happy for people to download the song, play it to as many people as they want, or whatever else. That's why the song's on here.

Nice song, guys.

Is that vocaloid you are using for the vocals?
I've been considering whether i should try it out, and this song makes it so more tempting. The sweetness of the vocal complements the instrumental very well. I must say, you've managed to hit the target for winning me over on this song. Good work!

blarsa responds:

Thanks! Yes that's vocaloid, it does a decent job for those lacking a real singer, like us :(

whoaa

-I noticed some clipping on some of the sounds, especially on the bass heavy parts.
-I think the guitar tone is fine but needs to move up front more.
-drum set tone is awesome. what kit in ezdrummer did you use?

Darren1337 responds:

Just the default one. Actually I combined it with some samples from my own kit too, just to get rid of the "default sound" feel. Could you explain what you mean by clipping? A PM or something would be cool lol.

this is hot stff here.

I think the vocals need more presence, perhaps brought more to the front of the mix.
However, that can be overlooked because of the great job you have done with everything else.

Metaljonus responds:

Thanks! vocals are now brought up!

nice combination.

sweet mix of genres here. props!
However, the genres mentioned are deceiving.
Its really a mix of chiptunes and punk.

Evil-Dog responds:

True, I'm sure that ruined your life haha

yes.

The intro shows skill in composing orchestral arrangements. I like.
What do you use for generating those sounds anyway?
Sub -drops = hawt. good work.

TheRealSam responds:

For the orchestra, I used GPO (Garritan Personnal Orchestra).
Very nice vst, I can pretty much do everything I want with it :)
Thanks a lot for the review man ^^

nice and bright

I suggest you get a parametric eq and shave off frequencies from each layer so that they are can be sonically separate. I use nyquist eq because its simple and very effective.
I've been looking for x3ta + but I still cant find it. :(

Father-of-Death responds:

you can't find x3ta because it's called z3ta

why hello thar

I like it.
I lol'ed at the fruity vocal sample :)
The song pushes, but should have more variation to signify different verses.
yea, good mix too, man.

syphonmax responds:

Should listen to my new songs :P
