dj-Nate's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[-{EP}- Feel the Energy]

Very good

Nice hardstyle.. style song, lol. A bit repetitive but thats what this genre is about though, so no points taken for that. But if I were you, I'd put this in the techno genre instead of trance.. But that's just me.

Good job,
Nate

ErikPaladin responds:

OMG, a review by DJ-N himself! WOOT! Thanks a lot, man!

I never know where to put my Hardstyle songs, but I always end up putting 'em in Trance, as it is consider a Trance sub-genre

[Dj Otherworld - Happy Core]

Hey

You submitted this on my birthday.. Cool.

Oh, good song.. lol.

raretools responds:

Happy birthday then :)

[Dj-N The Beginning Of Time Rmx]

OMG!

LOL, HOW DID U MAEK THIS>?!> LOL!L!O

Just playin, lol. Call me when/if you finish this; I wanna hear it.

[-Radioactive-]

Wow..

I really like this song. A lot. How did you go about making the intro synth? Sounds like an intense chorus/phaser mix, along with a freq. cutoff. What VSTi was this made in if you don't mind me asking?

Again, awesome song. Just submitted a song pretty evil, dedicated to this.

See ya,
Nate

Waterflame responds:

thanks :D ive been listening to some of your tracks now and then, i think what youre doing is really pro. i like alot of your work! :D well, on to the questions, the vst i used for the synth was actually the Sytrus. i diddnt do alot with it, cause i wanted it to have that raw feeling. so all i did of mixing was to add a free filter and a buzz adapter. i also added a deep bass and joned the two synths. to make it slide like it does, i did it the old school way, started recording and draged the mouse over the cutoffs. ;P i know i could have done this otherwise, but i wanted it to be variated in a non-linear way. i currently only have fruityloops 5, so i am limited compared to the FL7. but i do get by ;) thanks for reviewing!

[B0UNC3 - Crying Soul (FL Mix)]

Good, but..

Did you get a MIDI of this off of the Nonstop2k site? Cuz I JUST submitted a Crying Soul MIDI to that site, lol. If so, whatever, you remixed it, I just thought it was kinda ironic.

Good remix though, so keep at it.

Pyroific responds:

:O HA that is ironic xD and no i didnt use a midi LOL!

[B0unc3 New Test Omg!!!]

Good but..

This is very top quality and a loops very well.. but it just bugs me a bit that no matter what you submit, it instantly gets rated high simply because of who you are. Congrats on this though; it's very diverse. Hope to hear more from you.

Review

:(

This really disappointed me.. the sounds didn't match. I easily heard that Sytrus preset at way to high of an octave as well.

Overall, try to make your own sounds, or use something thats not as commonly used.

I'm not trying to sound mean, just trying to help you and be constructive.

Continue to make music. You'll get better. I can tell.

Alex-J responds:

LoL! Well your a music GOD and im surprised you even took your time reviewing this but anyway. Thanx for the constructing review! Its hard for me to use sounds that are not common since I have the demo and stuff... anyway I love listening to music but im not really good at making it. I think I just learned how to really get better, make alot of music, very often. Again, thanx for the review and I know you didn't want to sound mean or anything like that. BTW I love your music and im proud to have been reviewed by you! (even if my music wasn't so great =/ )

[Hardcore aint dead]

Review

Your definition and my definition of hardcore is quite different. This just sounds like lame gabber. Sorry, but it's true. To make it hardcore, you'd probably wanna up the BPM about 20 and maybe get some more percussion in there other then that overdriven kick and the lead. The song sonds very empty in parts. A choir or pad would fill that nicely.

[ParagonXX9 & LtCheese - Colors]

That piano hurt mah ears..

And sorry to say bro.. but your name pisses me off.. cuz I think it's an actual paragonx9 song, lol.

Melody was alright. That default FL clap tho is bleh.. And the kick is pretty weak.

Please don't take offense to this review, just trying to make you better. Get some new drum and percussion samples, work on the mastering and you should be all set. synths wernet bad

ShootingStar responds:

yeah, we didn't have the best things to use...

we did only use the demo of Fl stuido

[BOOM! (Venga Boys) Rmx!]

Lmfao

Haha, although you technically could still get flagged cuz this is the original song with SFX, it still makes me laugh to no end.

Lmao, congrats.
