Harha's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Synthetica (Hard Trance)]

Nice production!

Well, I personally think that Hard Trance is boring when compared to hardstyle but this track was okay.

Pretty good Mixdown, the sounds were nicely EQ'd, etc. Sounds really great from my KRK RP5 G2's.

I guess you made all the sounds yourself, atleast the kick/bass. If so, great job.

Only thing I didnt like was the main lead synth's. You could have EQ'd them abit better, more reverb/delay and maybe layer even more synths. I usually go with 4 to even 8 synths in my hardstyle tracks.

It's very nice track, I couldnt have done any better than this. :)

[[Hardstyle] Breakdown]

Pretty nice...

Agree with the previous reviewer. Sounds good from my studio monitors but some sounds need better equalizing since they sound kinda flat. The filthered kicks sound decent but you could have made them still alot better, more reverb, abit more distortion and resonance to the filter, etc... You are getting there tho, the bass's distorted layer is good and so is the sub layer. Check my hardstyle submissions. ;)

I will do so on Friday.
Thx for your review.

[First Dubstep Practice]

Keep practising

The wobble effect itself is proper and easy to achieve with LFO. The bass is way too flat tho, I'd suggest you using atleast 2 layers for the bass. 1st Layer = Distorted Bass with low freq's cut out and 2nd layer would be clean bass without wobble effect and 50-60hz boosted and high freqs cut. Use some heavy multiband distortion/distortion to the distorted bass, as example Steinberg's Quadrafuzz and Ohmforce Ohmicde are awesome plugins for that. Camelphat3/Camelcrusher for normal distortion.

Keep it up!

[WilysSupernaturalSkullFort]

Awesome...

Damn I love it! Has a very nice orchestral feeling, this style kinda reminds me of Ragnarok Online's music tracks wich are awesome. BTW Megaman 9's songs were way better than 10's IMO.

ZakoZaku responds:

I agree. Only a few, maybe three songs from Megaman 10 were good.

[the hero [demo]]

Decent...

First of all.. Fix your EQ:ing, especially the first synth wich fills in on the beginning has way too much high freqs. Otherwise its decent but trance is so easy genre to produce IMO and thats 1 reason I don't like it much. Anyways I did like the melody. Keep working on this and check out my latest submission if you want. :)

[Monodisc - Playing Around]

Awsom

Interesting indeed, your bass's dist layer is massive! _O_

[Endeavour - Trancy Loop]

Epic

This sounds awesome. IMO it could be easily implemented in a song, as example continue it by layering another maybe abit more detuned synth playing higher notes, I don't know about trance much since I'm a hardstyle producer, that's just what i would do. ^^ Anyways the sounds are nicely EQ'd and it sounds professional, check my short track preview from the latest submissions. "The Distorter - TBA" ;P

Endeavour responds:

thank you =D,
yes when I know a proper intro for this, I shall start creating the song.
Thanks again,
Endeavour

[In memory of our lost]

A Masterpiece!

I really enjoyed this song! The piano melody is awesome and the flute gives the track an epic atmosphere. Keep up the good work! Sorry about your friend. :(
