Dj-Brand0's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Power Of Pleasure RMX [Final]]

Hey man.

I noticed you change the tempo throughout the song when the vocals come in.
I know exactly how to fix it, and it'll really make this song sound so much better.

I'm serious, it's one of the best methods when remixing songs with acapellas. You can sync an acapella and play it at any tempo, at the same pitch and still in sync to the beat. Since I'm about to go to sleep, I can't lead you through it in msn or pm's so I'll tell you to follow this tutorial. It's great.

Also the tune you used is much like Take a Look by Nate but it doesn't matter. Just wanted to tell ya.

Charmanzer responds:

okay i'll check it out =) thanks!

no one fools your ears =D it is take a look ^^, i think it fits =).

glad you like it even if the vocals are a bit wrong =)

[{R4yn} Ravers Fantasy [RMX]]

Hmm nice I suppose.

Nice work, but I think you could have really improved your percussion, it sounded very *generic* the kick had no bass. Also that kick loop is not right, it's good to have in every 4th bar but no every single bar. I would say go a 4/4 kick for the first 3 bars then that kick sequence, trust me it'll sound much better.

You don't really need to focus on your percussion sequences right now, just learn where basically everything goes (kicks, claps, hats, rides) and you should be alright for the time being.

Try get some club kicks, look into getting the VEC's since I can see you don't have them.

Since I know you have Nexus, by hearing that preset lead, you should know how to look for the VEC's. (Vengeance Essential Clubsounds) Also look into getting Vengeance Ultimate Bass or talk with me and I can send you a mini-pack of mine.

Just keep practicing, experimenting, playing with fl etc till you get it.

Eventually if you try you'll be able to hear exactly what I hear through this song.
Just comes with experience.

Keep up the good work mate.

Dj-Rayn responds:

Alright I'm going to look for VEC and keep experimenting. Thanks for that bro, everything you said makes perfect sense to me.

[FXUEM10scc: Make them Electro]

Damnn.. XD

So nice. This is great :O I want to see you in the top, because you will be.

Everything about this song is electro house.

Damn nice work.

G-888 responds:

why thank you my fine sir!
appreciate your review! =D
:C

[Myfristsong]

Nice!

Well done! I think you have a few styles in here that definitely do have potential. Like at 2:00 that was pretty good. Some notes were off but the overall clip there was better than the rest.

Some of the effects didn't fit too well, like the guy below me said.

And yeah, you just need to practice using the stuff you have if you can't get hold of a copy of fl.

You really can make good stuff using the most basic of things. And it'll pay off if you learn the newbie stuff in fl because in the end you're going to be modulating everything you use to make your own sounds. And that's what I'm learning now. If you start learning it now, then you're set.

But yeah good work keep i up. I'll give your second song a check too.

G-888 responds:

haha thanks brando!

lol but thanks for the comment!

[DJ Radman - Shadow]

Nice work! Welcome back :D

Hey man.

Welcome back, long time no see on NG. !
Keep bringing up the old fl files. (What's left of them >.<)
The melodies all sound great.

I'll go right to the review. :D

The intro is nice. Love the percussion introductions. The Crash effects are great! Percussion's good, hats are fine. The leads nice and the melody's great but I think it doesn't go for long enough. You could have like a break beat with say an orchestral section and then a 2nd more added to melody. But to me everything sounds perfect sound wise. Structure wise it could have been a bit better :D.

But yeah love your stuff. Keep them coming mate :P

[Elektro Loop1]

Hey man!

Nice stuff man. You should enter this into Bjra's 14 Sec Electro House Comp. Considering this is a 9sec clip, it's great. You have a chance of getting in the top.

Here's the link to the bbs:

To Devn.. >:(

The audio portal is made for any original music, loops or full songs.. Why would you think there is an option to show it's a loop rather than a song. What an idiot :\

Where is the chance to gain feedback if you don't submit unfinished pieces. You calling pretty much.. 50% of the people on here jerks too?

[10SecondElectro]

I vote 5.

Seriously because it's awesome! And I'm guessing it might be under the guidelines now since 14 seconds is accepted 16 is the absolute max.

I love the effects used and the whoosh at 0:07 is freakin awesome lol.
The bass synth is really nice and yeah.

Good work! Good luck!

-Cheers Brando

[WILL SMITH and adzicents]

:DD

Lol anything with or by Will Smith is epic.

That's why this deserves 10/10 lol
