DuttonsaysHi's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[-Rusty Courier-]

Oh hell yeah!!!!!! Man I'e waited SO long for you to put this up! perfect man! even without the vocals :D

Waterflame responds:

yay, thanks man :D:D <3

[-Ambition-]

Strange how small song about baby ninjas can evolve into something so grand with better meaning. Great work man the overhaul turned out fantastic :D

Waterflame responds:

haha i know right? :D thanks man! them challenges always makes for great results!

[In Da House]

Oh man nice beat and stuttering synth. Their movement is so synchronised it's like the synth is a part of a beat (unless those are blip sample :P) but very glitch like.

Once Thing I would suggest Is finding your self a harder kick and snare. The ones you have at the moment are a little weak and house has a very phumpy drive mainly due to hard kick and snare hits. You could probably accomplish this by layering more than one kick or snare and pitching them accordingly to make one power full kick/snare.

Another thing you should try experimenting with side chaining. I don't know how you would pull it off with fruity loops but there'll probably be a tutorial on youtube showing how. But it's a technique commonly used in house music and it'll really help give your basses a little more PHUMP!

But nonetheless great work man! you've improved a lot since I last heard you.

AeronMusic responds:

Thanks man!! :D Yeah, the snear is weak, but the kick... I don't think so? Also, I know how to ad sidechaining in FL Studio and this sidechaining has been added to one of my another songs, called: Death Awaits. I know I could ad more things in this song and I would if I could open the FLP file :'( But I can't anymore after exporting the file to MP3. And yeah, I am improving my composing style and it's getting more fun. Thanks again ;D

[Cat's Dreams]

!! I really like this man :D this is my kind of jingle! very waterflame-esque. though the little jumpy rhythm synth you have in the back at the intro feels kinda off but that's because it originally meant for a 1/3 or 3/4 time sig. So it just sounds out of place when running along side a 4/4 beat.

Also I feel the drums could be mixed a little better... the kick and some snares and especially that hardstyle section feels a little over whelming in my opinion.

But still very nice work I look forward to more :D

ErikKaufman responds:

Thank you man! I consider your opinion about drums. See you =D

[New Journey]

Not bad at all! This had some brilliant melodies aswell as some well mixed and produced sounds.

My criticism would be try to layer them more around the intro like you did at the 1:20 mark and add a more consistent bassline.

but not bad man I really like this! especially 2:18, real pretty.

xmichaxb7 responds:

thanks! and I love your songs too... ^^
You better to download this song again. Because yesterday i reuploaded the "Mastered". I Just fixed where the sound should came from. Like left or right speaker.

[it's a unix system!]

I REALLY like this! So cute and jazzy, it's perfect! I like how you made it sounds so clean and full while still keeping that old raw 8-bit element. nice work man!

tilman responds:

why thank you sir! :D
i've listened to your songs as well and they are
extremely intoxicating! they all have a certain feel to em,
that even the ones not labeled as "video game song[s]"
sound like they would fit perfectly for specific types
of games.

so keep up the great work yourself :D
and thanks for leaving a review!

[-Carefree-]

Perfect. It's good to see something like this from you :D and you've really compromised in preventing it from sounding too generic and really varied it up and tried something new while using the same old shcool waterflame elements for smaller subtle parts. Definitly one of yuour best happy tracks! :D

Waterflame responds:

aw man thanks alot :D glad you notice that i try that ! i needed to do one of these again :3

[simple sight (dnb remix)]

Great work man! really stands out as a great DnB track. The sound quality is fantastic and I love how you got creative with your own melodies! keep it up!

[-Electroman adventures-]

Awesome work man :D the chiptune and rock blend make it even more epic than ever :D it's so calling out to be a metal version :D

Waterflame responds:

thanks :D Yeah that would friggin own :D

[-Pixelspace- SIK2 OST]

ahhh the mood change from cool to happy is always refreshing :D awesome work!

Waterflame responds:

Thanks :D:D
