TeHLoY's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[JustHoldOn(NV) DJ Badoosh]

Yea, this is pretty good.

I felt it was more sensible to review the original remix, but since this just came by the new submissions...

I think this got the bombed cause people only heard the first few seconds and thought it was an exact copy of the demo song that comes with FL studio 9 with vocals removed.

Well, it isn't. It's a remix.

Still, this is nice. Gonna check out the original version of your remix soon..

Badoosh responds:

Hey thanks man at least you have common sense about it.

[Apocalypse Now (Red Sky Mix)]

Hey, this is awesome...

This is great.
I was caught by the unique progression and nice melodies.
I also like the synths used in here. Really fits the uplifting theme..

It might have a bit too much sub-bass for my liking though.. =/

Still, this is one great song. Faved, 5/5, 10/10.

Fitzgrade responds:

Hey sorry for the late repleys guys i havnt being on here in awhile.
Thanks for the feedback mate glad you liked the progresion as i feel this is my best progression into a uplifting trance tune.
I tought the sub bass was the best part sounds awesome on my monitors full blast.
5/5 & 10/10 wow couldnt have asked for anything more. Peace

[In Spite of 1984]

Awesome!!

I gotta say, you sort of made me like house music, usually I'm not that fond of that genre, but after hearing your music, I started appreciating it..

This song is great as always, I really like the calming melodies you put into this.
I really like your style in making music, it's recognizable.

Just plain love the beats, really make me want to dance to it.

5/5, 10/10, downloaded.

PrEmoEffect responds:

From your music, I can tell that you like trance a lot, and I do too! I love the melodies associated with the genre, but I also like the deep but relaxing feel of house, hence the combination. I'm glad that I'm starting to find my style. It's helped quite significantly.

Thanks for the review.

[Supreme_Effect [Box-Killa]]

Awesome...

I love this melody. Everything fits; synths, piano and drums totally complement each other.

I also love your, choice of chord progression. Perfect.

You sure you've only spent ten minutes on this? The song is more than 4 minutes long. I have to listen to my songs multiple times to get them right..

Box-Killa responds:

I had an idea and wanted to make a song out of it but atm I am kinda sick and restless so I didn't mess around and just pumped the song strait from my ass.

thanks for the review. Also I try to stay away from basshunter progressions xD

[Semaphore's First Contact CVR]

Epic!

Wow.... this track is.. just good. I've never really watched star trek, but, this... just plain epic.
Yep, this track is a bit soft, a lengthened version will be much better.
I just find this song lacks in drum beats, maybe some snares at some parts will work well.
Still, this is awesome. Gonna fave this..

Semaphore responds:

thank you very much TeHLoY

[Instrumental Moments]

omg.

So... calming.
Awesome ambient track you have, this really creates a great ambience for some nice event.
Pity it's a bit too short...
Still, great job on this, love the piano and strings, they really complement each other.

Semaphore responds:

Thank you very much I could write a longer version but I'm fine with this version because I let work the imagination of the listener =)

[TranceMission - The Rhythm]

Pretty good.

This song was kind of simple, if you ask me, few instruments were used.
I feel you could add on to this by adding some pads, as there was too much gaps between instruments, a pad could really help fill up these parts.
The beginning beat could be a bit shorter, it kind of made me lose interest pretty quickly.
You should try balancing low and high frequencies, seems like you did some unnecessary stuff, like decreasing the volume of the hihats when it was pretty much the only instrument in it's frequency range, maybe except for the vocals.. , and the bass seemed to interfere with the kick drum.

Still, I can see some talent in here, and I feel some constructive criticism will help you improve and avoid mistakes. So overall, great job on this song, and hope to see you improve as you keep posting more music.

TranceMission1988 responds:

Thank you very much for the input, much appreciate it! I always try to improve my work, so these comments really help me :)

[Popeye the Looper man]

Hmm..

Guitar loop?
Yea, this gets a bit repetitive after a while, you should try to add some variation. Perhaps some other instruments to be added on?

But anyway, if this were used as some sort of background music for a game, it wouldn't really matter anyway..

Try and maximize the volume, it's a bit soft, so I had to turn on my volume much louder.

Still, great loop. You have pretty good guitar skills..

SamHandwiches responds:

Thanks for the advice, I'm only posting work to get feedback and to improve :D

Yeah I was thinking of it as game music, but also I had no ideas, this was the best I could come up with. I'll keep this in mind.

[RebornX - Dying Victory]

Hmm..

I swear I heard this before....
Wait.. I did. I think I reviewed the earlier version..

I think you should remove the older version.. having two (almost identical) songs doesn't really do much..

So, on to the review.

I think the double bass part helps this song a lot.. Can really hear the emotion now..

This song still lacks certain melodies, I think adding a melody or two would help..

And honestly, I think its the violin sample that isn't that good, you should just switch it completely.. Maybe to a high pitched saw synth? They sound similar.. o.o

Still, most of the stuff from last review remains in this one, still a pretty good job on this..

RebornX responds:

Done!

[Unfortunate Truth]

Oh my god.....

Just plain awesome, really getting into me.
This can really get into commercial music, I really love this song.
Melodies really sound housey, but it goes into a trance progression halfway.

Mixing trance and house? I've seen many attempts, and you've pulled it off PERFECTLY! I mean, trance is my favourite genre, and mixing it with.... yea, this just plain rocks.

Definitely going to fave this, this is just so good. And this is going into my mp3 too.

Awesome job on this!!!! =D 5/5, 10/10, fav.

PrEmoEffect responds:

Yeah, I used to make trance, but then I realized that I was better at making house. Really, the problem with trance with me was the bass and percs. So I was like, hey? Why can't I just combine trance leads/pads and house bass and percs.

Thank you for the positive review. I will come check out your stuff, assuming that you upload, because you obviously know what you're talking about.
