Geoplex's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Caliber]

Mkay.

The first section of the song really takes its time to go anywhere, with the same beat and melody going for what feels like a minute or so. I'm noticing some slight variation, but I don't get the impression that anything interesting is going to happen.
It needs something to back it up, some pads, a sub-bass, and some stronger percussion - some FX wouldn't hurt either.
I understand that this is your first submission, so don't take this the wrong way - it's just a bit boring/repetitive as it is.
I also see that it's your first attempt at any genre like this, so I can understand that.
Keep producing, improvement comes quickly.

5/10

Void responds:

Thanks for the review! :D

[Chill]

Alright, well...

This appears to be very similar to "U.F.O," with the same beat and arpeggio in the background. I like the fading pad, it works quite well, and the piece has a bit more variety than I expected; but it still feels lacking. The beat works well and the title is appropriate, but it seems that it needs to be fleshed out a bit more.
Also try to work on keep repetition down, it's a hard hurdle to get over when you're new to producing.

7/10

Void responds:

Thanks for the positive review! I find this submission better than the U.F.O one haha

[U.F.O]

Hm.

I'll start with the good: The arpeggio worked well with the beep melody, the chords seemed to flow relatively well, and the beat was stable.
Unfortunately it's a bit boring and doesn't go anywhere, this could be a 20 second loop and I'd still have heard most of it. The beep is also a little piercing and not hugely interesting. It's also a bit on the repetitive side.
The piece is certainly not awful, however, and I definitely recommend that you continue producing.

6/10

Void responds:

Thanks, I don't really like this submission that much myself, but thanks any way!

[Run Away]

Decent.

Melodies sound quite good, the introductory low-pass on the percussion sounded good also. It could be a little more interesting and needs a stronger bassline, or at least some deeper pads as it feels a little empty on the lower end of the spectrum.
As Jumbub said, the ending could also be stronger.
Nice for a first go at the genre though :P

Thanks for your feedback!

[Design]

Hey, I like it!

I love the slow melody, it's really enhanced by the percussion; making the whole piece feel fast-paced, and yet relaxing.
I'm not a huge fan of the snare/hat samples you're using there, they're a bit piercing in comparison to the rest of the mix, but aren't hugely detrimental to the song.

I really like it.

10/10

Alloud responds:

Glad you enjoyed. Thanks for the feedback :3

[Bright Sky (House Mix)]

Decent.

The start is somewhat bland and takes a while to go anywhere, but sounds good when you hit those chords. At around 1:15 you seem to change keys without any smoothness of transition, and it makes the piece feel somewhat disjointed. Many sections sound good on their own, but the song lacks structure in its current incarnation, imo.
Overall, I like it - but it could be better. Try to make it more diverse and have a clearer structure - don't change keys without warning, either.

eyramusic responds:

The bit at 1:15 i'm taking out and making a better beat throughout the song thanks for the review! :)

[Fingers]

GOOD GOD, THAT BASS.

This sounds like a track from any number of jet/plane flight simulators I've played, simply because it feels relaxed and yet fast paced. The piece is really tied together by that bass, it sounds incredibly strong and yet doesn't overpower the mix.
I love the synths, the melodies, and the way it flows in general. Liking the FX, too.
Downloaded/fav'd, etc.

[Akopa - DnB Attempt/Preview]

Like it so far.

While it doesn't feel very dynamic in that it doesn't really go anywhere yet (it's unfinished, so that can be excused) I really like how it sounds.
Percussion is pretty good, the lead melody is great, and overall it sounds fairly crisp; for lack of a better word.
I like it.

[Dj-Nova Legends]

Potential

I like the way you started, the arpeggiated melody sounded quite good (despite the fact that having it an octave too high made some of the higher notes a little difficult to hear) and it seemed pretty stable.
However your transition after that made me unsure as to where the song was going, it seemed a bit confusing.

I think the song itself is an octave higher than it should be, and that it could do with more direction and... purpose - for lack of a better word - than it has.

I'm not sure what to think of this in all honesty, I think it has a great deal of potential, though.
7/10

[Nova-- Vaporize]

Hey, I quite like it..

It's a little messy and lacks direction, but it's catchy and different. The melodies feel a bit like percussion in nature, and I like the diversity of sounds.
I think overall a lot of elements of the track need some delay and maybe a bit of reverb, they sound a little flat on their own.
It could also do with a little more bass, or maybe a pad in the background to smooth it over.

Overall, though - I think I like it. It's something different.

8/10
5/5 (To bring the score up :P)
