QJrocks's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Party Saws 3]

This song is really good, but I do have one complaint. From 1:24 to 1:51 in the song, it sounds kind of empty. Then again, I don't do Dubstep, so that complaint may or may not be valid.

Also, I'd suggest that you insert paragraph breaks into your description, breaking up the wall of text and making it easier to read, like I did with this review.

Anyway, good work. I think you deserve to be scouted :)

[~Espionage~]

This is a pretty good song, I can tell when the drop happens and it isn't terribly repetitive.

That being said, I do have a complaint. The instrument introduced at 2:00 seems to work against the song, as it rarely seems to harmonize with the rest of the song. Thankfully, it is in there for a minuscule amount of time.

Keep up the good work!

[Road to Devastation]

Although there isn't really a drop, this is still a really nice song! What BPM is it?

Evilgrapez responds:

The BPM is 145.

Thanks for the review!

[{DjR} TechnoCr4zy]

This has a really nice melody, but you need to add bass tracks. They have instruments that play in the background of the main tracks and sometimes harmonize with the main instrument. Maybe you should remake this sometime.

DJRyanAB responds:

Thanks for your review ;D
I might do that sometime when i'm not too busy. (i have too many hobbies such as band, programming, etc.) that will take some time .:)

[Symmetrik & Geoplex - Tempest]

I don't think you should worry about returning listeners not liking it simply because it is a different style than most other songs. Trying out a different style of music is no reason to hate a song.

That aside, this is a really well-made song. You should try more stuff like this, be it collab or no collab. I can't really tell what the voices are saying though.

Keep making music and experimenting, you may find a second style of music you enjoy making.

Geoplex responds:

Thanks :) the vocals are really just there for effect, they don't intend to carry meaning or melody.

I'm really excited to try some melodic dubstep so i will certainly be making more. Thanks for the feedback :)

[The Final Phase]

I swear I've heard this song before, but I'm not sure where. This song reminds me a lot of both Pokémon and Metroid. I love this song, keep up the good work!

Deemo-R responds:

Lol I certainly hope that's just a hunch (unless someone used this track elsewhere that I'm not aware of). I love both of the series you're reminded of, so your compliment is very flattering! Thanks a ton for listening! :)

[{DjR}PartyRoom]

Hmm. It's a very interesting song, but I can't really find much depth after the first 10 seconds, as I only hear 2 instruments and a faint drumbeat. The first 10 seconds were really good, wish it was like that the whole song.

It has a really nice upbeat rhythm and a good melody, so I'm giving it 4 stars.

[Duality]

This is a great song, but the iconic piano you always seem to use has gone AWOL. It's played a pretty large role in some of your other songs like Blue Expanse, but I can't find it here. Am I just missing it? :P

Geoplex responds:

There is a piano in it, it's just less used and a bit more subtle :P I will be reusing piano of course I'm just moving away from it stylistically a bit (though not forever.)

[Culture Code - Space & Time [R]

In the song settings, you can select who made the original and their username will appear under your name under the Credits and Info with the subtitle "Original"

Nice remix though!

Can you tell me the instrument that goes from 2:25 to 2:30? (The one that builds up and then just stops) I'd like to try it in some of my music.

[From Outer Space]

I can't ever seem to create a dubstep soundtrack. Maybe it's the lack of an apparent "wub-wub" instrument in my program, or my lack of ability to hit the notes as fast as usual dubstep.

Sorry, it says "spill your thoughts" up there, so... Pls no h8

Now, onto the track. It's more of a chiptune-dubstep combo, and the notes never get ear-piercingly high, which is good (in my opinion) You seem to be a real master of the genre, knowing when and at what tune to play the notes.

That being said, I'm rather curious about the sudden tempo change around 1:30. I'm not really familiar with that type of effect, so that caught me by surprise. Was there any main reason for doing that?

Thank you for wading through this large wall of text,
QJrocks

Voofex responds:

Thanks for the positive review dude! :)

The reason I did the tempo change, is because the drop was lacking variation, and for some reason I found it hard to create some to this specific track.
