Blasphem-E's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[~EnV~Come Home]

YAY

Sliced vocals ftw. Good dance track, though still not as good as heaven road 2. Psyche. Love you man (all homo)

[(WF1) Tranquil Hearts (WIP)]

Strings, seconded

The beauty in the composition is overshadowed by the quality in your sounds. I know how much you like your soundfonts, but I almost think you need to find something better for this song. Either that or run a channel for all sorts of different string instruments and make your ensemble manually.

Your piano work is good as always, but I think you might find that throwing 2 additional layers (1 staccato and 1 a slightly fuller sound) then eqing the combined 3 of them down to slightly above what we get here would work really well.

Flutes until 33 were amazing, but I think after that 4th note you should bring it up to a higher note. I.e. If you currently have C-E-D-C (long note), try doing it C-E-D-C (long note) G (halfway through the C). Whatever the flute note at 36 and 41 seconds is, it sounded slightly off to me, but this may again be due to the quality of instruments you have.

As I told you on MSN, it sounds like the flute player s dieing at 47 seconds. Get that digital player a crash cart, stat!

Get some wind chimes into the end of this man, they'll sound amazing.

Also, if possible, I think a solo, muted trumpet playing a few long notes every 8 measures or so would do wonders.

As Gravey suggested, percussion would be nice with this. But no kits. A combination of timps, soft crashes and even the sound of a heart beat if you can emulate that.

Finally, the cello. Could be a bit bigger, with a darker sound. See if you can put another cello in an octave below that at about 85% the volume. Think that would be great

Hope these ideas help

Hmm this should help big time. LOL I'll end up working on this puppy a bit more when i gets the time.

[~|| Break your chains! [new]]

Good

For once I don't actually mind slayer, so that's a positive. Love that kick, but the snare should be bigger.

Also, you're missing a real bass sound in this. I was expecting to hear it come in when the snare dropped, so that was a small let down.

Still, nice track.

T-Free responds:

Yeah, you're right in all points, I'll work on this song a second time.^^

[[DX] Rage]

all right

I liked the drums in this, although I think you should bring the snare out a bit more. Kicks and hats were done well.

Not so sure I love that bass 1-3-2-1 pattern. It's not bad, but it's not really exceptional either.

Still, this is really bass heavy, quite a treat for the ears to have that much bass put together lol.

dx5231 responds:

Hm.. I'll try to bring out the snare.

Lol @ ear threat.

[Acting Affirmative]

Allright

As I told you on AIM, this is your best flow yet on this site. Good work

Broken-Needle responds:

lol, thanks

[-=MNSP=- Patience -=MNSP=-]

YEA!

I want more! NOW! NO PATIENCE! FUCK THAT SHIT! NOW!!!!!!shiftone!

Sick track, killed the beat. Perfect flow, awesome sound, and all that great stuff. Only one problem: you tell us to get the mixtape, but it isn't out yet. That's just tantalizing and cruel. Jackass :)

Looking forward to the mixtape man, sick track.

[Gasmasq - Another Day]

Nice

Ya man, I like the vibe you're setting with this track.Definitely the type of track to sit back and think on.

Your flow comes off in several places, but you manage to bring it back every time, so that's fine.

By the way, where is the beat from? And if you have an extended version, could you please send me this track with an additional open verse? Would be awesome.

Keep it up man.

Gasmasq responds:

In regard to the beat, check your email.
The artist: check your PMs.

Thanks for the review, but my flow doesn't come off, that's intentional to make you notice the words. :D

[(WF1) the lotus petal.]

More from the last hope

I picture this as the calm before the storm, the lotus petal slowly starts spinning around, and begins to open. It's all very serene. Then, the darkness begins to surround, and immediately after this song WF1 bursts forth and kicks some major ass!

Back to the song though, very nice. My only suggestion is to add a rainstick during the calmer parts.

wyldfyre1 responds:

Hmm a rain stick.. interseting concept!

[Harlem]

Love that vibe

Seriously, great vibe in this, it just feels like a song you could listen to for hours. Not entirely sure I like those bells, but pretty much everything else here is great.
