Marks-a-lot's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Waiting For Dawn]

Not to bad...

The song itself is pretty good, and progressions flowed moderately well. But the samples aren't too good, and you could have used filters and FX better. It was just a little too bland for me. Add some more variety to it and some good FX and filters and this song could be a really good one. other than the filters, FX, and samples it was a pretty good song, a lot better than most of the stuff on newgrounds.

Magik-Waffle responds:

Good advice. Much appreciated.

[Reasoner- Ticking Away]

Pretty Damn Good...

I am going to agree with Bjra on that the synths are loud at parts but the loudness felt necessary at parts I thought that the hats were a little to loud too. I forgive the massive compression, more mastering and this could easily be a top NG song. But damn the progressions and builds in the song were sweet! The beats as well, were right there with the progressions. nice submission, and if you change anything with the song please let me know.

Reasoner responds:

Glad that you enjoyed the trip. Everyone's making it pretty clear that the mixing could still use some work, but I'm glad you all are finding good things about it regardless

[Iridion 3D - Below the Cl]

Sweet...

This song is awesome, I liked the other Iridion3d song to "Above the Clouds" This is great video game music. I just can't really understand why this isn't rated better.The thing that I probably enjoyed most was the bass riff at the beginning of the song even though I liked pretty much the whole thing. great song, I would really like to hear more in this series.

ArienV responds:

Thanks yo! Yeah I like the end credits enough to do one of that, but I prolly won't get time to do anything like this for a while =(

[polarity reversal]

Cool music...

I don't think I have ever come across you before, I'm glad I looked at all the kids who gave choaz fantasy a bad review, those always make me laugh.

anyway nice song, I really like your style. but most of all I like your bass and lead progressions they combine to make some pretty shweet music. good stuff.

[Godly Defeat]

Good song...

I thoroughly enjoyed this submission I found the arpeggios to be quite enticing and the suspenseful strings really pulled the song together and to cap it off the piano really added the dramatic and epic feel to the song. once again great submission and keep them coming. I can't think of anything that can really make this song better so I guess your just going to have to take my compliments, because that is all I can give this song.

Noblewolf09 responds:

Thank you for the compliments. I will definitely try to make more.

[Eat my bass]

Sweet song...

I don't know what this is but it has some funk to it, and I am a man who loves himself some funk. the percusion in this song was awesome and the bazaar riffs and progressions really made it a fun song to listen to. I really must say the structure of this song is something I have really something that you don't hear quite often, thank you for allowing us to hear something different. Pretty everything in the song seems right to me and it is a good submission, well that's my ten cents (who needs two cents when you can have ten, keep the change)

Thank you so much!

[Uneasy Night]

Sorrowful yet relaxing at the same time...

It sounds like your guitar has a quirky tuning to it but I like that, it added the necessary feel to the song. with just the guitar you've have managed to to create something beautiful and calming. The recording could be better but it isn't bad at all. I really have nothing else to say, Good submission and keep them coming.

Artist-Lost-Music responds:

thank you, yeah my low e string was tuned to a random note and then I harmonically tuned everything to that note. The result makes it very hard for anyone to add in with a different instrument..

[Metical - Revolution]

I love it!

I honestly don't think you need the drums, I don't really like the drums though. But that didn't matter the piano and everything else were so epic and well thought out that it just took me away, the piano is pretty crazy and those strings really accent it well. great submission and keep the great submissions rolling.

[(nub)constant Mistakes-sample-]

ahhh

You make some of the most chill music on newgrounds, this song is so good I like all the percussion you've incorporated in this song and another piano riff that just soothes the ears. you have really generated your own style of music and that is what makes your music so great and unique. keep on submitting good songs.

[Don't Give a Damn]

Great track...

I'm glad that you tried something different, it turned out great. I really liked the combined elements of your style of music and rock. This song kind of reminded me of the song minutes to midnight off the "Transformers" the movie soundtrack, I forget the band who does it but that's what this reminds me of. This song does kind of sound like "Watching the World Die." I think that this would fit perfectly in a movie, yet another good submission.

I dont remember that song but I can always youtube it or something lol. I will check it out later to see if I can find the connection as well! I'm also glad you think it's a good fit for the theme. :D

Thank you for the scores and review!! :)
