DJ-AfterBurnz's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

['92]

I dig the concept here man. Your mixing is pretty good too. Or to say, I can't really tell anything that stands out to me yet

JohnMontoya responds:

Thank you so much! :D

[Halloween Trouble]

Despite any critique on mixing, I see where you were going here for the melodic concept. I don't dabble with dubstep too much but it feels like you had too many instruments in here.

EDIT: Oh nononono sir don't take this the wrong way. Remember I don't know ANYTHING in the world of dubstep. Don't take my critique in a way for someone else who would say your work is phenominal. Hell I wouldnt be able to do what you're doing anyway. I was just saying not to have anything sound super muddy with instruments clashing with each other.

Just for something to think about in future projects to help improve, :) keep doing you man

DestroyMin responds:

oh ok :)

[Mission Zero]

I really like the concept here. It does get a little repetitive though. Personally I could see The room you had from 1:23 to let your soul free on a lead here with a melody.

However I could see this in an animation, given the criteria is met

CDJeremy responds:

Yes.. My mind was blind in that part, cuz I wanted to finish it in one day

[MegaVania]

Yeah, this slaps. Great work, dude! :)

CDJeremy responds:

Thank you so much, you maybe don't know how happy I'm right know :)

[Progressing Degrees of Insanity]

Whoa... This is elite.

ADR3-N responds:

Thanks, glad you liked!

[warm day]

YES SIR I HEAR THAT TOXICBIOHAZARD GEniUS ARP.

1zin1 responds:

YESSIR! BEST BELIEVE IT!121. lol

[Equanimity]

You weren't kidding on that drop. It would be nice if THAT exact spot came a little earlier. Were you trying to build it up all the way to that spot?

You know this is the beauty of music. Regardless or not given from my perspective how I see this track if you know you put in the time and effort, the proper panning, mixing, and mastering of your piece to where you truly asked yourself "Does this sound good to ME?"-- other's opinions don't matter. You should be proud of this awesome piece you did. Your integrity is the filter to determine what is criticism and what isn't. This genre isn't necessarily up my alley, nor am I the best or most decorated/creative musician to be the first to offer valid criticism. But regardless, Great work.

Teqneec responds:

Exactly what I was thinking after finishing this song. While making the end of it, I noticed how much better it sounded than the start. I was thinking about going back and redoing the start but I didn't have it in me to redo all of that, the start isn't TERRIBLE but it's just not as good as the second half. I do agree that the song sounds imbalanced with how much power is in one half of it compared to the other.

[cold]

Not bad. Good thing I turned my headphones down a bit though. great work. :)

BurneMusic responds:

no is bad

[preview uwu]

Nice Dub step. I love the wubs man. I'm also little biased in favor of this since i got a track named "Ugh" as well.

Xx-SapphireSnake-xX responds:

I didn't like the result and it was overcompressed
anyways thx :)

edit: I changed it

[AAAAAAA]

Nice padding. Some of the notes clash though. might need more mastering.

cogamusic responds:

Ok.
