DJ-Scorp's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Zboar's Anthem]

Intenste kick, and melody!

Hmm, well to start of, I am not quite impressed by the intro of this song. You could do some more, but I liked the claps combined with the bass. Anyways, I love your kick, and the bass sounds fine.. do not feel irritated by that little boy beneath me.
Structure of this song is good, however those snare rolls ruined it for me Example:(1:54). They where too long, and not well placed in my oppinion. Anyways a tip here, instead of letting the snare roll for like 8 seconds or so, try to lower that to 4 seconds maximal. And also do not let it roll on the same speed, increase it at 2 seconds, and last ultimate speed at 3 seconds.
Overall a good song though, the melody is very unique, only too short.
5/5 8/10 <- 8/10 for the flaws as described above. Do not think I disliked this song, I mostly give reviews with critism, there where certainly good points in this song as well. those are the things/instruments wich I didn't reckon in this review. Keep it up you got potential!

RagingFlameOfHorror responds:

Yeah now that i look at the snare rolls they do seem too long. When i was making the song i had just figured out about how to slice notes so i guess i got a little carried away haha. And for the intro, it seems extremely out of place i think, and in other songs ive been trying to have relevant intros. I think i fixed the problem in my new song, check it out if you want, thanks again for the review though.

[HardTrance WiP [Brando RMK]]

Really nice!

I've heared the original and I must say, I am impressed man!
Strong and well placed kick, and that cracky bass just finishes this delicous goodness. I hope you can soon finish it, however it's a problem that Kazmo might not work on it so you don't know how the original would sound. And actually I am quite stunned by the fact that you've copied his melody... Did he gave it to you? Or did you made it yourself? If so you recreated it perfectly. Loved your lead, and synth! I think it's nexus but I am not sure wich lead exactly.. I forgot lol. Anyways, this is IMO slightly better so far because of the strong and powerfull lead. Great job so farr!
5/5 9/10 <- the 9/10 is for the fills that could've been used, I actually miss some twists in this song, so far I've heared it where only crashes, and FX kicks.

*- Would love to hear a review on my song as well if you want to. ;)

Dj-Brand0 responds:

I find it easy to recreate sounds, I just figure out the main notes then recreate the tune myself. It would be way too much of a hassle asking him how to make it. It seriously is dead easy. The lead is um Impulsor from Dance Vol 1 and the rest is just nexus parts layered pretty heavily. Yeah since this is a WiP there isnt much structure so = not really breakbeats etc.

Alright i gotta go. Got school.

-Cheers Brando

[Dang Mengalai (Final Mix)]

Totally like Brandon said..

Awesome intro for a hardsyle song! With those hard noises, made my mind go shuffle lol, Lovely bass as well there. But when that monsterious kick comes in I totally wowed! Can't say enough about those hard noise effects, it fitted in there really nice. However 1 little flaw in my oppinion, and that'll be the melody as Brandon said as well. You'd better use another hardstyle lead, or put the volume of this one much higher. But about the melody itself it's an average melody, try to make it unique and a little weird for the originality. The structure of this song was really well, snares and claps, and the good placed kicks where tottaly awesome! Nothing more to say, only that little flaw on the melody that's all. And I must say try to take the information that Brandon said, and deal with it. ;) 5/5 9/10.

*- I don't know if you're in trance but, I've been recently been submitting as well here, and I'd love it if you could take a look, and review my song as well. ;)

[Fantasy Island Intro]

'I've granted you immortallity'

Awesome song, loved the vocals in the intro, and overall trough the song. Strong kick, and great leads! I surely want to know some more about this all, it's amazing hardstyle. Can't stop shuffling to this beat. Lovely demo so far, I hope to hear the finished product as well, so please pm me about that if posible. ;)
5/5 10/10 fav'd artist. Great work so far! ;D

[[TMM43] Sundance]

Whoa, Happy and energetic at the same time!

Smooth start with that lead streaming over by an clubby beat. Crazy melody verry energetic and happy at the same time, it's something that I want to accomplish for years! I see no flaws what so ever, and I am quite astonished by this track. Loved the vibe in the song, and the superb transitions. The song itself glided over water, so smooth. I also love the idea that you guys used another slightly diffrent melody for the second part of the song, because I don't want to hear another melody in this than the one that is playing. Abdominale work, great mixing, mad effects!
This one deserves my 10/10 and 5/5 for sure!!
Awesome work produced by you two.

Ps: I am already off to visit SRT-M1tch.

[Kazmo - A New Day]

Exellent work here!

Nice and clean progressive start, followed up by an ambient/electric lead. Also a good pumping beat at the background, very 'trance-ish'. It atracted me already from the start. To bad that the synth and the piano at 1:46 didn't popped up elsewhere in the song. I believe that that whas the best part of this song itself. I am admired by your mixing abilities, everything sounds verry clean and crystal clear. Good job onto that! Creative melody, and a simple beat that's what deserves a 5 and an 9/10 for the less variation, and the fact that I missed the synth and that angels piano too much! I'll be sure to be check more of your songs soon.
