Ragamuffin's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Nights in Tokyo (WIP)]

Wow, I almost lost my shit.
You broke outside of the constraints of what 4/4 dance usually is, especially in your intro, which blew me away!
The effect after so much regular music around the audio portal recently was contrasting and beautiful.
I would maybe use a smidgen less reverb on the rhythmic synths.

It does not loop well, though.

Please step out of your comfort zone more. Good things happen.

BuggMusic responds:

Thanks a lot! :D

As for the reverb and loop, sorry about that, it's unmastered and unmixed. Just wanted to get some quick feedback :)

[.oOo.]

The composition is there!
The dynamics are there!
The ability is showing!

The sound.. I forgot how to sound from this.

Stereocrisis responds:

Thanks. Just doing my part. - Your local friendly Spider-man.

[Amazing horse! 80s!]

Super chill.

king-calamari-1 responds:

Thanks!

[Colours]

Whatever you're doing here,
Do it again.
Do it a lot.
And then let me buy all your merchandise.

Happy songs rarely affect me, but the melodies and timbers in this track are irresistible.

DuttonsaysHi responds:

Hahah wow man this comment made me smile :). It's so great that my music can break through that barrier you have for happy music :D Thanks a bunch!

[Life Goes On]

The one tine-esque synth was kind of eh. Maybe too loud in the high frequencies.

The composition was really good, though, keep it up.

carl565 responds:

Could you relate what the tine-esque synth is? haha, I'm guessing you are talking about the first synth that comes in at the same time as the kicks/snares. Thanks for your review!

[The lonely astronaut]

The one synth was like 2 octaves too high, bro. I can't blast this or my ears will bleed.

The part at :45 was very legit.
Make more like that.

Pls

Werewolfrx responds:

Yikes, Sorry about the awkward leveling of volume, this was literally my 3rd song today and I was experimenting with some drum N bass stuff, rest a sure there will be a lot more stuff like this coming!
Thank you for listening! again lol!

[Herberts Sherbert]

More creative, but still tapping -0db mercilessly.
FL comes with a limiter plugin, please learn how to use it.

At the beginning, the high-passed synth was a bit too buzzy, it was annoying almost. Try playing with band-passes? You might love them.

The composition was absolutely beautiful though. I would really love to do a version of this song, if you'd be cool with that.

9Wave responds:

You can have ago if you want, I douse FL limiter. i tweak it so I can get as much volume as I can. For me there is no clipping due to it being 'too loud' so i leave it be.

Once I'm back at my desktop I can provide project files.

[Reanimate (Original mix)]

You hit -0db a lot.
Turn your limiter down by like, -.2db?
Other than that, really awesome track.
Nothing startlingly new or interested, just a well done dance track.
Maybe felt a bit too thin with the HPF, if you know what I mean. Maybe another LPF section to keep it full?
The 1:30ish section was really cool, as well.

9Wave responds:

My newer stuff is a lot better with mixing and whatnot, as i said this is an older track, i do plan on going back to it and doing an alternate mix when I get some time. Thanks for the tips though! Always happy to take some advice where I can :)

[Surounded Enhanced]

Didn't even realize this was a loop at first.
You got me.
Also, it had very minor nuances, which are done very well.
It could loop a bit better, though.

Werewolfrx responds:

Ahh, Thank you, Your criticism is always very welcomed on my music.

[Ambiguous Drum's Grief]

I like this, a lot.
I can really criticize it.

But would you mind if I used this to make a (cover?)?
Also, the Aahs at 0:56 were glorious.

ColonelMagus responds:

Thanks a lot!
And go ahead, I don't mind if you use it,
as long as I'm credited if you use it for background music or something.
