Nimble's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Giving (Demo) Dureagon]

Cool and all,but..

i feel that the small little voice taken away,it would sound a lot better. thats just my opinion though. nice beat,rhythm and things,but i am deducting a single point for the reason mentioned prior. you should also try to like add more to the drum fill so the transition from verse to chorus can feel smoother.

just my 2 cents man,hope you appreciate it.

4/5 9/10

DJDureagon responds:

Thanks for the review. The vocals is something i did in purpose but i can see how it would turn some people off. As for the drums... good idea. i think ill work on this a bit more before the official release this August.

[Repenter]

WELL,

You asked for another review,so i decided to do your newest song. :P

anyways:

You've gotten better since Redeemer. still repetitive as always,but now you're mixing things up a little. i recommend you do a progressive melody song. it starts of with a simple note and then everytime you replay the "melody" add another note to it,until it reaches it's quota of one or two phrases.i recommend doing this to test your imagination. now this song is more my style,dark,deep,and echoey. it still needs more melodic diversity,like i said last time,but you're getting the hang of it by adding a counter melody at least and a rhythm theme.

Tulvadar responds:

As always i am very grateful for your comment. Since you pointed out that i need "melodic diversity" i suggest that you listen to my other works here on NG (there are 26 of them in total). You may find out that some songs are on a higher level than the only two songs you listened to. ;) Besides your comments are very useful. Let me see what do you have to say about other songs as well.

[Mirth and the Oppression]

Nice Harmonies

I really like what you did,even if it's just a couple of guitars. the harmonization was on key and on the dot,which i love when it does happen. this is an amazing single track and i can't wait to hear the whole put-together!

pixelseph responds:

Thank you! I was debating for quite a while which harmonies to use and when I settled on the ones you hear (root, minor third, octave, minor third of the octave) I was incredibly pleased.

The end product will sound something like the earlier track, but there's more to the ending. [:

Thank you for the review! =D

[Roll It Up]

Pretty Interesting.

I was trying to read the BBS whilst listening to this,but this got my attention so much i ended up just listening. good job on having that happen to me. it's a bit repetitive,which is okay,since it's a hip hop beat. i give an 8 for the kinda shakyness and instability when the song headed towards the minor tonality parts and i felt it was running over a whole bunch of speed bumps in that part. other than that,you're pretty clear. good job on this song! definitely a cool song IMO :)

JohnEastman responds:

Thank you much for the reevyu NimblekidX ! If anything I would change the piano sound throughout to give more variation. At one point,when creating the song, I was about to give up finishing it because of that <shakiness> you are referring to. I want to try it again real soon. If you have any suggestions you can e-mail me at [e-mail]. John is greatful. Peace:)

[The Long Run - Preview]

The Long Run of Repetitiveness

Well,it's has a nice sound and all,but it's repetitive as hell. i know dubstep is supposed to be a bit repetitive,but you should at least vary the drum groove through several different genres if this song is supposed to be called the long run. also,learn how to make a more encompassing melody,as that will make your audience listen to you,and not just use the song as background noise/any other song. Im just offering helpful constructive criticism on how to improve,because i used to make songs like these(Classical Counter-parts,at least) and since this is your first try at dubstep,i'll let you slip with the drums. but since it's not your first try with music,im taking points off for the lack of a encompassing melodic line,along with at least a counter melody.

carl565 responds:

yeah, i am definitely not sticking with dubstep. i am horrible, i just tried because my friends like dubstep. thanks for your advice though, if i make another dubstep project i will use it!

[Jungle Bits]

Good Job BUT

it doesnt really sound like a drum and bass song. it sounds a bit more trancy or ambient,because it's so repetitive. i know D+B is supposed to be quite a bit repetitive,but it really shouldn't in my opinion.

Very creative idea! i like how you made it sound so smooth but it also has that nostalgic feeling. Good Job overall,and try a bit harder when choosing genres!

DetiousMusic responds:

I'd say this falls between Drum n' Bass and Trance.
I would never say it's actually trance though.
Trance has the traditional unce unce unce unce.
But the beat I used has kicks and snares mixed in it.
But who cares, it's just music.
Thanks for the review!

[One hundred and seventy]

Woah.

That was pretty nice. i'd say the feel of the song is cynical,the humorous type of sad. but anyways,for me it was a bit too repetitive and you couldve shortened the song and the content would have stayed the same.nevertheless,it was a pretty good composition. this is definitely a favorite and a download(when i decide on a download day lol)

CielOuvert responds:

Thanks alot for your response, means alot to me :D

[GreenHillZone (AmpersandRemix)]

WOW.

This is like smooth jazz,techno and everything in one really. the only reason im giving you a nine is because it's a remix ;D if you make your own songs with this kind of quality,i would definitely give you my first ever 10.

AmpersandKiD responds:

Thanks Nimble! This is incredibly late, but I really appreciate the kind words!

[John, It's Showtime]

haha!

Well done,another piece well made! the only thing i have against this is of course the bad signing in this song,but then again,you guys can sure make cool songs! i think i'll favorite you 'cause you're so awesome :)

Bezbozny responds:

Thanks for the review. How do you think it can be improved? I know the singing is bad, but I don't know exactly where I should improve and where it should be intentionally bad for the sake of humor.
Like for instance, which lines do you think I should re-do?

[Ice rings]

Well Played!

This is quite an interesting song. its very well composed,it just needs to be a bit louder and have distor- never mind,just got to that part :o this is very well composed,but i feel at around the end it's all blurred up.the melody and the background clash way too much,so i would suggest editing the ending so everything gets heard there,and edit the notes being played a little so it doesn't sound really destroyed at the end . it's on the short side of ambient,a VERY short piece for ambient,but that doesn't matter. it must've taken you a long time to record/write this all out. Well done for a first piece as well. i hope seeing good things from you in the future.

9/10,4/5

Pseudofed responds:

Thank you! I really appreciate the advice.
