DJCaution's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Factory Floor]

factory floor? i get an image of being in a park in new york near a subway station as a train pulls in. only a 4 rating as it seems to be the same 'loop' for the first minute fading in

tijnn responds:

What can i say, it's ambient, taking things slow makes the eventual impact bigger : )

Too bad you find such complex synthesis boring after a minute though.
I can tell you, it's not a loop ;)

[Passing Of The Veils]

1.57-2.35 ruined this of having 5 stars but other than that segment was immense, get a huge drop in there and jobs a good un'

AliceMako responds:

Well that's just one synth so easily remedied.

Thanks.

[looking at you]

well...

i was half expecting some texan girl to start singing half way through this:
"well i met this boy johnny...!"
tune has that kindof you know what it is and everyone else knows it but its crap kinda feel, if you get me?

daviddarky responds:

hahaha i know but its a good one haha thanks man hahaha

[A.P.C.F.Y Redux]

your onto something

at first, i mean like for 30 seconds i thought, is this it? this tape going over and over, with me trying to hear something move in the background, but when it finally started you have a nice melody going, nice rhythmn and choice of chord. cut a few 10-20 secs off the beginning and your into a winner, 9/10 for the slow start. sorry.

Kreepman responds:

it's cool xD
The beginning is the original song I recorded waaaaaay back in July :P

slow start always needs the change after a minute or so and you did it in this. a heavier bass would have been good though (dance genre remember) and a deeper set throughout but as you can see from the ratings, just lyrics again that's letting you down. alot of potential showing. you;ve been getting gradually higher ratings so don't let me down on the next one. =)

syphonmax responds:

I won't =]

And thanks

Hey, i been busy lately, had a few nights at warehouse project so not had time to check up. glad your keepign in contact =)
firstly, you dropped lyrics..no!! you've become tiesto. not a bad thing you might think but dance music needs lyrics. but other than the lyrics marking you down you've improved. i had this beat in my head that when it hit one minute they'd be a large bass and possible speed warp and then the whole tempo of the song would increase. it was a little slow in the end if im honest, speeded up with a strong bass backbeat and some lyrics to go with it your on to a winner.

syphonmax responds:

I'll add the vocals soon XD

And thanks man you help a lot =D
