CriticalHit's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[{425} CraZe]

Awesome

The mastering and effects on this one are just epic. Unbelievable how you pulled this off.

Michael425 responds:

Thanks man. I'm glad you liked it.

[{425} Extreme-G]

Sweetness

Fits in with XG really well. Could've been longer and a little more varied, but it's awesome as it is.

Michael425 responds:

Thanks man, I'm glad you liked it.

[{Ceb} Carol Of The Balls]

Awesome

This has so much balls it makes everyone trip. You also made a really nice music video for it.

If there's one criticism I can add, though, the drums are so loud that they tend to drown out the rest of the song. Not by too much, but it's still something.

Cebster responds:

thanks. yeah its tough because i needed to make the drums pronounced< stand out. if i didn't the song would not be intense. so it was a sacrifice i was left with< although i could have done a better mixing job.

[Assertive Mood _ RR]

Sweet

Sweet base, but gets a tad repetitive. I like how you used the effects.

On an unrelated note, I don't get how you could be an assertive "or" competent person. They're not opposites. It's possible to be both.

RenoakRhythm responds:

ya you cant be both, and its not meant to be a real thing like you're one or the other, but usually one person likes one song more than the other.

Thanks for the review.

[Nearing the Horizon]

Sweet

Great song. Needs just a tad more background and accompaniment, though. Otherwise, fantastic.

dj-KDUB responds:

haha. thanks. i still can't believe i busted this one out in less than 2 days

[Nearing the Summit]

Epic

Epic is the only word I can use to describe the feel of this song. I can see this being used for so many epic flashes, if it were exposed a bit more. You still got more exposure than I do, though, haha.

dj-KDUB responds:

haha. yeah i dont even know why. my stuff isn't that great. but honestly, this is my favorite song. i wish more people knew about it. i think im going to do a remake of this song when i get nexus. It feels like it needs a bit more depth, and its a little short

[[dj-KDUB] Kool Beans (raw)]

Clubbin.

You've got a pretty slick beat there. I like the synth that comes in at around :40, but it kinda lowers in volume suddenly. I was expecting it to take over the lead, but ah well. The song has a strong foundation, but needs just a tad more variation.

dj-KDUB responds:

wow. yeah a lot of people have said that. i dont know how to make climaxes though. they're the hardest part for me. thanks for the review!

[[Reign of the Empyre] (techno)]

Cool

It didn't really sound that techno-ish in the intro. This song does a really nice job of transitioning and transcending genres. The main melody does get a tad repetitive at points, but you managed to rectify that problem somewhat with the accompaniment. The rest of the beat is just so sick.

dj-KDUB responds:

haha. thank you very much. i had a lot of fun making this one.

[He's going to be the...]

Cool.

Great foundation here, reminds me a bit of Rob Dougan's Clubbed to Death, but needs a little more background/bass. The claps also feel a tad too artificial, but that's minor. And, SPEED RACER REFERENCE LULZ!!!

Michael425 responds:

That's exactly the song I thought it sounded like after I posted it on Newgrounds.

Thanks for teh review

[Final Summer]

Jumperish!

Reminds me of The Jumper by Waterflame. Really sweet synths used here. Nice perky mood and no real problems other than it being a bit short. Nicely done.

Michael425 responds:

Wow, it sounds exactly the same. That is just scary.

I wanted to make sure that it had the happy tune in it.

Thanks man
