Marks-a-lot's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[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.

5/5

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..

[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.

Hi mark!

Thanks! I thought after all the videogame stuffs it was time for something new lol, glad it turned out half-way decent. :o

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!! :)

"Mikey He Likes It"

Nice submission man, great use of effects, and you actually put one of the fruity loop sample voices to good use, for that I bow to you. The strings in this song were SWEET and made the song so much more epic, I loved the strings. There is nothing bad that I can say except to the people who down-voted this song when it came out (shame on you, you a-holes of Newgrounds) well it is at a 4.13 after my five. keep on submitting, great song.

[Do You Know Fear?]

Ooooo

Great ambient track, if you released this at Halloween time people would go nuts over this track. I really liked the "Eeeee" scream at like 13 seconds in to it, it screams a few times but that is really what got me, it made me laugh, but it is a REALLY scary track don't get me wrong.

5/5

Dimoria responds:

Cheers.

Good format to the song...

And overall it is quite fundamental but its little things that count. I think this is a sweet song, and I think it could give even better with a few minor adjustments. Try putting some reverb on the wav that comes in at 22 seconds, I really think that it would bring a lot more depth to the song. And a little better mastering shouylid do the trick.I really enjoyed the ambient break, it just doesn't feel like you got the power of a hardstyle song sa of right now. Great riffs and progressions and overall a good song. Keep on doin watcha doin.

coupland responds:

Cheers for the review, i'll try the reverb n that in a bit ;)

[z75 - It Will Go On]

Was it as good for you as it was for me?

lately I have been hearing and seeing a lot of trance songs on Newgrounds, but I am a fan of all music and I must say that you did a nice job with this song.

I really liked the pad work you did in this submission. the panning is also good I don't if you did that on purpose but it worked out nicely for you. Very strong kick that drove the song and balanced it all out, like sanryd said the song has direction.

good job, and good luck with all your future posts

5/5

Xorberax responds:

Thnx man, now if only everyone else had the same mind you and Sanryd have ;)

[Breakbeat Trance]

Good Song

I think this is a little more trance like so I'd say you classified it right but hey I'm Brian Fellows. I think you should turn down the levels on your leads just a smidge. thank you for the submission you provided me with something to groove to.
