Shenkhar's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[It's Over Now HHC RMX]

Awesome!

Awesome, just need a more "persistant"(?) synth along side the pluck/arp synth to make it more lively and fill it out. I'd be glad to give you some ideas - or help ya out.

Besides that I absolutely loved the track, vocals are perfectly processed and chopped, and the exisiting synths are well chosen and balanced!

Kazmo responds:

I'm glad you like it!

What do you mean by persistant though? Ahaha PM the details... :P

Thank you for the review!

[Castles in the Sky (Vocal Mix)]

A decent remix of a favorite song of mine

If you use Fl studio you can fix the vocal sync by simply dragging the acapella into the automation section, it'll show the full waveform and you can chop it up into easily sychable parts.

Nice work!

Thanks :)

[Rig & Spawn - 16 Bar Assassin]

YEEAAAH

I LOVE YOU RIG PLEASE COME BACK.

Rig responds:

I LOVE YOU TOO BUT MY HEART LIES IN MONTREAL :(

[Flight of Wind]

Awesome!

Really nice track! I love this kind of stuff...

Awesome chord progression, top notch mixing. Only issue I can think of is the high frequencys seem to be clipping a bit.

I hope you get in the top 5 with this one!

[Rig & Mihai - City Block loop]

Sweet rythyms.

YESSS Live samples. Now I need to get sorohan to record me some stuff >:(

I'm going to get a friend of mine to record some guitar.. we'll see where It gets me.

Nice work!

Rig responds:

Thanks, it turned out nicely!

[Karco - Beginnings]

:D good one!

Nice work on this one, i don't have too much to say - other than the bitrate quality thing (uuhhg, we all struggle with this one on NG.), and the drum sample loops are noticably "loopy". I enjoyed the breaks and chord progressions - nice work!

- Shenkhar

Karco responds:

Yeah, the song's 7 minutes long, and the mix isn't all that good to begin with. What can I say? :P

As for the loops, I made the drums back to this song in March/April, so I didn't know better at the time. I do now. ;)

Thanks for the review, glad you liked it!

[Rig - Furniture Monster]

AAAHHGGGG TIME SIGNATURE PARADOX.

But seriously though, I admire people who can make drum patterns.. I have a hard time with them. Nice work!

- Shen

Ps. Its collab time. I hope,

[.X. Epic Memory (Full)]

Love it!

Nice work! I enjoyed the piece alot - but it would be better with cleaner samples/instruments (and mastering)

If you can do this.. DO IT - you'll be #1 next time.

(pm or aim me if you want help - shenkhar)

XenoxX responds:

yes yes I will add you on aim... And thanks for offering to help....oh and thanks for the review

[Sleeping In My Car]

Nice

... lol I don't mean to sound crass or accuse you - but are you sure you created this from scratch?

That aside, I am impressed with your work, but I really wish you would master your music a little less "loudly" as it grates the ears (it can still be hardstyle and loud, it just needs to not clip and kill everything that hears it..)

Good work, keep it up!

Pyroific responds:

I'm not sure what exactly you're asking, but thanks :)

[Your Eyes (Original Mix)]

[quake] HOOOLY SSSHIIIITT [/quake]

Great build up, awesome synths. I'd say the strong point of the song is the drums and sidechaining/gating of the instruments. Then again, the melody/chord progressions are really nice as well. PIANO SOLO, WUT.
Gaah, too many things to compliment you on >_<...

You should try sending a demo cd to a trance label, I'm sure they would love this. (that is my opinion anyway... Keep up the awesome work!)
