8-bitheroes's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Orbital Sky Diving]

This is all round awesome. Like some others have said, cant really fault it. The drums are simple and solid, I'm guessing you used a step sequencer for those? The arpeggios are cool, they keep everything going at a nice pace and the lead line is melodic and compliments the rest of the song quite nicely.

[Psynapse - Acid Cure]

Its got a good solid beat and theme going on. I like some of the synth sounds too. It could probably do with straying away from the main theme a bit, as it gets rather repetitive.

[Sriracha Burn]

This is cool its got a kind of lofi quality to it. Some catchy tunes in there, nice and simple. It could do with some more lead melody in there, in the form of another instrument imo. Good job. Scouted.

[Ambient #2]

To be honest its nothing special, I don't mean to sound harsh but there's not much going on. There isn't anything wrong with keeping things simple but imo the melody isn't particularly catchy infact it sounds somewhat out of tune in places.
I read you put basically no effort in, well if that's the case I don't think its a good idea submitting something that you don't put effort into. Sorry this is of corse just my opinion.

[new audio mix]

There is some cool use of effects in this but also a huge lack of melody, none what so ever and that makes me sad!

[ENSC - Blazed Night Sky]

I like this, it has nice smooth bass sounds, its a very chilled out track. Perhaps in some places it could do with a bit more going on lead melody-wise since its quite along track i think it would benefit from it. the outro to me was a little on the dull side but overall good job.

SynchroSpectre responds:

Oh yes, I believe you're right but I ran out of ideas for the outro, I'm really new to progressive so I don't know how things are mastered and how the structure and the message its trying to send :l

Thanks for the review, I will keep those I mind in the future ;)

[Look Above]

I really like the retro sounds in there and theres cool use of arpeggiators and nice weaving lead lines. The crash sounds area bit too loud in my opinion and stand out too much and also ending on a loud crash like that just didn't sound right with the style of music you are playing, it sounds a bit like you are banging an old tray of some sorts. Apart from that good job.

[DFR- Rebirth]

The sounds are good and i really liked how this started out, the part at 0.23 where the drums come in is awesome. But the problem is the song is too repetitive, that main bass line part at the start just repeats itself until the end and the whole song is just based around that one part.
I'm no expert when it comes to dnb but if it was me i would of added it some different melody's to keep things interesting.

DesoFreelanceRecords responds:

Many of DnB producers (especially Oldschool ones) creating dnb tunes that contains long and repetitive melody, to make them easier to mix for DJ's . Just take a listen of dnb songs from a year similar to 1997.
Thank You very much for sharing Your opinion !

[Hardcore]

its got some cool sounding synths in there and a good catchy rhythm, like the other person said it could do with being longer.

L13S responds:

Thanks you! Well it's your lucky day because I have made it longer. I'm still doing some minor edits but I should release a full completed version soon. Hopefully you'll like it :)
