[-Mortal Kombat Theme REMAKE-]

Not bad

I think your synths had some good power, but it was not a perfect transcription from the original, you had a few notes out of place, but it was good for the most part.

I would have tried to vary it up some more, and the ending was a little weird, it needs to be switched up just a little more. Maybe having a different synth or two playing the different parts of the main theme, to keep it interesting.
Your synths had more power than my remix did, but I think you could vary it up a little more. . .

If you would be so kind as to let me know what you think of my remix I'd appreciate it! http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/liste n/411123

Good work overall!

[Assless]

Not bad

I liked the intro, it built up theme well and was pretty simple, I think the drop could be a little bit heavier, it didn't seem very heavy compared to the intro and that's normally what you want to have happen. . .

I think the drums were ok, but I'd try to put either a reversed cymbal or a reversed snare to build up to the snare hit on the downbeat of each measure, it's a really neat effect and I think it would add a bit to the drums.

The second drop should have been switched up a little bit to keep the song interesting. Rather than just repeating what you did earlier you switch it up some and keep your listener interested all the way through.

I'd also enjoy a submelody under the wobbles, either as a bass or as a higher pitched instrument to keep progressing it forward

Very good for a WIP and I'm looking forward to a finished version!

[Construction, Reflection...]

Not bad

I liked the intro it was pretty good.

I think for a while you had a bit too much going with the piano for a while, it was not all in the same melody, there were some pretty harsh clashes of notes there. . . (I'm a Pianist and I'm picky about how my piano's sound)

I liked the way you had built all of this around a simple little motif and the composing of it was pretty good, though there are some unpleasant sounds.

Even so it's a very interesting piece of music and I really like what you had going on with it.

WizMystery responds:

Clashing notes are typical of the genre. This is atonal and avante-garde so it focuses less on a tonal center and strict harmony and more on structure and variation. Not ignoring tonality is more of a challenge, I'll admit, but personally I prefer this aesthetically.

Thanks for the input!

[[dB] Protest -Loop-]

Nice!

I like the way you brought in the drums at the beginning and the sounded pretty good.

The song was a little empty. . . I think you need to build it up a little more and then go into something a little dark, but with high energy.
What you had was pretty good, but it was not a ton, there's a lot to add, but the main thing I feel is missing is either A) A heavy bass carrying the melody or B) Some kind of "real" instrument to introduce the melody and build it up to wherever it is you want to.

Not bad, just a little empty

Thanks for the review ^^

[.:Everything Ends:.]

I like it

I agree that the snare is a little weird, I'd recommend adding a little volume to it, and a little more echo, basically I want to hear it, and then hear the main "hit" echo 3 times, that's what I'm feeling for this song.

Your main piano melody was pretty good, though I think some chords on the bass end of it would have added a little more, though that was kinda done with the synth you could try to do both and see how you like it. . .

You really built the mood you wanted too and you can feel the emotion in this song, I can't really complain about much else
Good job overall

[Unnamed WIP]

Awesome!

I could really get down to this, it was pretty awesome!

A little repetitive, which is ok sometimes in dance music.
I'd suggest putting a little more into the kick, maybe something a little bit deeper along side with what you have now, don't be afraid to layer up your drums, it adds a LOT to them.

It does need some cool effects and "extra" instruments to flesh it out, but the basic idea is pretty awesome! I think the main thing you need is a good submelody under the main line, something to keep the song progressing.

Awesome work man!

[Nostalgia - Adam Doan]

Nice !

I like the intro, and the intro lead is cool, the bells were good too, the added a fair amount to this song.

I really like the main melody, its pretty catchy and the drums keep it pumping.
I'd switch up the melody one or two time before 2 mins, just some small things, because throughout the song it retained pretty much the exact same melody, for this song it still remained fairly interesting through the song, but changing it up even more would really keep people sucked into your song!

Great work overall!

Sweet, thanks for the positive review man!

[~Beta~ Perception]

Nice

I liked the intro, it was really excited, but it was a jumpy in and out excitement, I really like it!

House music is generally pretty jumpy and you didn't disappoint my at all with this one it was pretty chill but it had enough oomph to the synths and the drums that it was still something I could dance to.

I think you did a pretty good job overall with this and it was very enjoyable to listen too.

One thing I might suggest is to switch up the synths a bit while retaining either the original melody or something similar, it keeps everything flowing along, which is nice in dance stuff.

Overall it's pretty good and I could see this in a chilled out club. . .

[Storm Surge]

Excellent!

Sounded really good, I love orchestral stuff so this is awesome!

I was reminded of the Trans Siberian Orchestra a lot, by your almost christmasy beginning and then the slow part wasn't too bad but I agree with Joey, I didn't like the trumpet or whatever it was, it was either a bad sample or a poor synthesizer but I didn't really think it fit in well with the song.

I think this song could use a contrabass or something to fill the lower sound pitches, it would add a lot to the subtle parts of this song. . .

Overall it was good and I think NG needs some more orchestra music, it's hard to come by these days.

Nice work!
