decoyultimatum's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[9-11 Hymn]

hmm

there are some really ( and i mean really ) nice melodies in this but its flow is a bit off it just doesnt fit properly

if you want i would just looooove to mess with this its really pretty and i want to see if i can do anything with it

ive been having a block myself but if i mess with this it could pull me out of it :)

pm me and tell me if it would be ok with you and what you used to make it kay?? :3

[Out of My Head {RMX}]

i dont understand

how you can make this and yet make the other song i just reviewed

at least i know you can actually make music now

this is much better then last

the vocals were nice and the effects on them as well

the bg music worked with it nicely

not much more to say just practice

steelside responds:

I'm surprised you even looked at any of my other songs after the first one you reviewed. I removed the first one you reviewed from Newgrounds and replaced it with a version without vocals. You should review it, I'd appreciate it.

[Blue Shadows]

dont know

if i would call this music

its lacking various components that makes music what it is but its a start

Carr77 responds:

But what defines music?
This is experimentall music, it is strange, and some people does not even call it music, and some people loves it and thinks it is the best kind of music.

I was 100% sure that some people would not understand this song, so I am not surprised over your reaction.

But thanks for the comment :3
I appreciated it!

[Trance anthem herp derp]

this is

cool

i think the bass in the beginning is a bit to dominating

pm me when its done

me like

bigbluechevy12345 responds:

I think I see what you mean, but do you mean the kick drum or the bassline? And yes, I'll pm you when I'm done. ^_^

[Noisebringer - One Year]

ya kno

you are one of those unappreciated artists out there who deserve more then what they receive

the concept behind the song is amazing and really the song itself is just bloody friken beautiful

but i do feel it was a bit repetitive and it couldve been a lot more dramatic and honestly with what you had i hear potential for a good two minutes more of song

part of me wants to mess with it myself but i keep reaching the conclusion of " this guy is out of my league even if he did send me the file the second it opens up you probably wont have half the plugins or understand any of it" lol but i can always just play with it in my mind i guess

weemeee responds:

Hah, thanks for the review man, appreciate it :)
and believe it or not but i actually managed to lose more than half of the song because i didn't save the file after i exported it and just mindlessly closed FL :( I can still send you whatever's left of it though (which isn't much) if you really want.

[Final Fantasy: Fallen Tid]

i freaking

love this song

i started listening and went holy freakin crap ffv

[Death by Solitude]

its very

peaceful and gloomy

nice epitome of sadness feel

i like the message in the comments as well

that stuff cuts deep especially well with the music

corbetweller responds:

I agree with you, mate. Whew... the real story to it is just as gloomy.

[++Bagent++]

some people

can be really harsh without any real guidance

there are some real guidelines to what makes a song a techno song its not just the fact that it uses electronic instruments

if you are ever unsure where to put it there is a misc. section

this song should probably be put in vgm

the song lacks crucial structure but the concept is really good

also take out that guitar until you learn to change it and make it sound real

also the part for the guitar didnt sound to good either

i dont think the choice of the other instruments were to bad but could definitely be adjusted some more to sound better

you already show qualities that many ng audio artists lack so you can definitely get somewhere with what you have but its up to you how far you get

if you ever need another review send me a pm with a link

i enjoy helping newer artists get better and i know a lot about music and music theory so i can help almost anybody

[Jello Macabre]

it sounds

a little choppy like the notes are not placed properly

im guessing its an arpeggiator that your using to make it but i could be wrong

it just sounds really rough

[Ironesque Valley]

quite relaxing

it has kind of a nostalgic feel to it

it also has a scary movie bgm type of feel

something you would expect to hear out of resident evil you know what im saying??

this is a true ambient too so it goes well with home work and studying and such

it did seem to drag a little in the middle but its ambient so it really doesnt matter

my favorite part is from 1:00 to 7:52 but after that is where it just kinda sits to much for me

i guess its because its the middle of the song and i expect it to do a little more

FatKidWitAJetPak responds:

Ambient music can seem to drag on at points, and I tried my best to switch up moods and including small patterns. Ambient is the sort of track you should prepare yourself for, allowing your mind to open fairly well to experience music in a different way. And hey, rate honestly lol. If you don't like it after 7:52, then rate it lower then 10 :P As I said in the authors comments, I don't expect everyone to like this UBER SERIOUS CORNY TRACK lol.
