death2go's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Wings of Jade]

holy tits my dude this is astounding! i cant even pull this off in a month, hell, i have a song ive been stuck on for 7 months now, and dont have that much to show for. you have some amazing talent and i cant wait to see what you'll do with it! on terms of criticism one thing you can improve is the snare at 2:50 - 3:10 it feels too sudden with its release, i would think a snare with a tail of sound at the end would be more effective at captivating the listeners minds with the visual of a winged being waving them off before departing up into the skies.
hope to see more from you soon!

AED-4 responds:

Thanks for reviewing ^^!

I got lucky with this one, it isn't exactly the norm for me to complete a track in a day or less, unfortunately:P

Also, i can't take all credits for this, a good amount goes to my dear friend caffeine ;)

[Uprising]

tasty melodies as usual, the drop needs a more dynamic contrast when being entered, make the build up softer and such and have the drop barge in in a dramatic fashion, and maybe smoothen the melodic synth (or whatever) at around 2:40 a little, overall a great track, cant wait to see the official releases of this and the other tracks!

[The Lights]

getting nice chill vibes from this track, i feel like this needs a tad more sub bass still ( but im starting to think its my headphones atm so let me know if thats the case!) maybe take a little bit off the treble end on the track maybe add a tiny bit to mid-sub range, (take that with a grain of salt cuz i barely understand mixing) overall a fantastic track worthy of 5 stars! keep up the great work!

RyanBlaneyOfficial responds:

Thanks for the feedback. There's quite a lot of sub song, it could possibly be a headphones problem. If you check the Audio Spectrum on the YouTube video, there is a constant spike, and the Twitch effect only happens with sub.

[The Arrival]

a greatly built track!
a few suggestions would be making the snares stick out less around 0:52 to about 1:09 amd adding a bit more sub bass on the drop. but apart from that, a tasty melody and a breakdown, and heavy panda eyes vibes! this is an great track overall keep it up!
looking forward to seeing more of your songs!

RyanBlaneyOfficial responds:

Thanks for the feedback. The drop is missing a bit of bass. It was difficult for me to balance all the frequencies together in the drop, since I had lots of mid frequencies I was trying to get to stand out, but the treble dominated. I will try to improve on these in the future. Also make sure to check out the full album on 6/5/18.

[[Electro] Waxhack - Pin]

now the melody/chord/bassline sounds awesome, the main issue is the mixing, you should look into mixing and mastering more, thats thats the only thing really keeping this from being really good

keep it up WaxHack

[Megalovania - I do not own this for GD purposes only]

Hey, im not entirely sure if you know how newgrounds and gd works, newgrounds is a platform where you can upload your music, you can't upload anyone elses music on here, and violation of this rule can get you banned, atleasy if you’re scouted, and the scouting process, would be the next step if you uploaded your own content, people who have been scouted and such can offer to scout others to get noticed more, and if, for example i scouted you and you have something like this, or you uploaded copyright content after i scouted you , you and i will get in trouble, and ive already gotten screwed over about this twice now, and then the final step to get it in GD would be to have robtop verify you as a creator for that, usually if your scouted you can ask him, last time i checked he did it quite frequently but that was a year ago and judging how long he takes to update the game lately, im not so sure :P, anyways i just wanted to point this out to you, i could report you but im not sure if that will chamge how you see this, so im leaving this review here, because i believe you might understand more if i told you this myself, what you do next is up to you, and i hope you make the right choice. Also if your lookin for a megolovania song to make a level with i would sugges DJ Janners remix

[TrexusHD- Breakdown]

I will start off with your weaker points, the drums arent super fitting, like theyre not bad, but so much can be done to them to make them amazing, the drop the chords between the wubs arent fitting either, maybe have a heavier chord synth there with additional voices. Now the intro had some awesome melodic sounds which is really good to be able to do after just a little time in the music world, the wubs feel like too filtered or something, like its not even around the other instruments and lesser quality, work on those things, and you will grow big man! Keep it up!

[Please]

Like the intro bassline though i feel the snare needs a tiny bit of reverb and i find the quick transition at 0:12 a bit to dramatic. Also, i find the high hats not fitting to this as much as i would like, another note is once the vocals fade out at 1:00 you should make it decrescendo or fade out of the phrase, and the chords carried through most of the song could use a little more variety to it, i feel its a 4 bar phrase but maybe try an 8 bar phrase, it will make it feel more varied throughout the track, other than that its a pretty good short track, the vocal sample go with the track pretty well! keep it up!

Psilenth responds:

Ya i got lazy on the line automation

[Dance of a Sparrow]

great intro and execution of transitions, this is another excellent song from you, hope to see more in the future!

AED-4 responds:

Thanks ^^ Glad you enjoyed :)

[Bassteroid - Intuition]

feels like the snare needs more reverb, and the kick, and the gritty bass is a little too heavy, other than that , nice job man!

Bassteroid responds:

Thanks man, I appreciate your feedback very much! Thanks for the tips, I'll use them and edit the song.
