RobinDB's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[_I Promise_]

This could bring tears to my eyes.

If I were a slightly more emotional person. Amazingly elegant intro, followed up by an even better main section. My only problem? TOO SHORT. I know you made this for the Death Match which probably means you didn't have a bucket-load of time on your hands, but please come back to this and extend it. For now, I'll just have to live with a 2:43 download. ;D

[elementary mistake]

Very Nice.

As a musician myself, I very much appreciate the key change at the end there. You don't hear that much in House. :D

This song is very nice and smooth, but fun. I like the chord progression in it. Good job not becoming too repetitive and changing it up every so often. BTW, you author's comment looks more like instructions than your thoughts on the song. lol.

[{sPhly} -Under the Surface 70%]

Very Nice. :D

My only problem with it is that when you add in that effect..... I don't know the techical term for it.... when it sounds like your turning the volume dial up and down to every beat? It would be fine if you didn't have it so pronounced, like if it didn't go so low. Just a little bit less, so it doesn't sound like it's totally going from something so smooth to something so electronic-sounding so quickly. You definitely need to make it longer though, and as for the repetitive synths, don't worry about that too much, just put in a bridge or something, it will be fine. :D Give it that extra "30%", and I'll download it. mV, (^.^) Bye for now.

Shoephly responds:

:D Thanks for the review, and yea, I was thinking a little bout that, personally i like it like that, but looking back at it, a slight change to make it a little smoother would do good.
The 30% won't be too far away, but right now I'm working on a similar song (smooth strings/choir/piano) but it''s gonna be totally different from this one though; stay tuned! :D
yet again, thanks a lot for the review! ;D

[[DJ_ITD] - Power Spike [24Hrs]]

Pretty good.

Those are funny vocals. haha. :D

Good work, I like the bass line and the drums. For 8 hours of work this is really good. Then again, you never seem to fail at making songs. Nice job.

djInTheDark responds:

Thanx, I sure hope I didn't fail. :P Yeah I really liked the vocals also (guess thats why I used them heh...)

Thanx for the review!

[Just A Few Things]

Not really house...?

Pretty good, I'm sure it meant more to your girl than to anyone here. Nice peaceful guitar, pretty good singing. The auto-tuning on your voice could have been better. That one line is hilarious: "Not many words to be said, watching you give me........... a smile!" lol.

This could probably go under New Wave, or Miscellaneous. I just don't see how it fits under any electronic music section.

[-Orr- 4 Brave Champions []

Amazing

If you wrote out the music for this and had a professional orchestra do it, it would be pro movie quality. I think that's the only thing it really lacks, is the human touch of a real live orchestra and choir. But like others have said, excellent work, this is epic.

DavidOrr responds:

Well said- thanks for the review!

[1010]

Very nice.

This dong is kind of fun just to listen to, because it changes a lot. It's almost like a medley of a few songs put together. Ima download this and put it on mah next NGMIXCD.

[Save My Life]

It doesn't sound like it's only 2:37...

This is an amazing piece of work. There's so much going on in the song that you don't realize how short it is. It keeps your ear's attention and you hear every part of it, so it sounds much longer than it is. I especially love the tropical/tribal drums. It's such a nice change from the everyday. I'm definitely downloading this. Good work.

[Illusions ~Prog. House/Trance~]

Pretty good.

And I agree with you, females are an entirely different species. ;)

But this is a pretty smooth song. It gives a lot for your ear to hear, constantly making little changes or additions with every phrase or so. It's a kind of bubbly, energetic, happy song. Good work.

[Fxuem's New Cellphone :D]

I want that cell phone.

Lol, very good voice acting and music. If my cell phone had that ringtone I would use it for everything. All call ID's, text messages, alerts, alarms.... lol.
Like others have said, it's HOUSE, not TECHNO. :D But again, very good work.
