Pandora-Tranquil's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hear Us]

good good w00t

Nice piano work there.
and the weird static was cool too.

drums were kinda far away, not too hard, idk they shouldhave been harder, this in my opinion is a trance.

no real darkness in it, its more "pretty" sounding, and i like (80% of my songs are like this)

this wasnt nearly as repetitive as some of your newer ones, and since theres no way in hell im gonna listen to all your songs, this is my favorite lol.

its short, it has a really nice feel to it, and i really liked this one.

A thing i find fun is to go back and remix your old songs with new things you have learned, maybe you should try it with this one.

Good job

btw i voted a 5 on all the songs i reviewed

philjo responds:

yeah the piano is synthesized, and it took me a wee while to dra all the notes in! i basically chose a key, and tried some random note progressions for the key.then i added some chord hits on top, voila, thats the piano. "trance" couldnt possibly endorse this kind of drum pattern, although i see your point, what with the melody and all. i think this tune is a stepping stone toward a heavier, more distorted type of music. i had in mind a scene of vast countryside, viewed from a high trajectory, fitted to this music. once again your review has been greatly helpful, thank you for voting all 5! gimme 5 mate *slap*

[FFVII Tribute - Lifestrea]

Nobuo Uematsu PWNS

I gave you a ten because it is a very well put together remix.

but over the past year?

damn dude i don know how u can spend that long on a song, every song you can hear in my profile took less than a day (unless i was busy or sumptin)

it was pretty good, but as if a pattern in your songs, it seems like they are too repetitive.

sorry to be such a critic (hey i gave u a ten lol) but i get ALOT of critics on my songs, so no worries lol

keep up the good work, sounds like you have some promise.

you have good ideas, and you put them together pretty well, jus work on how OTHERS will percieve it, always think from the mind of the critic.

Good

philjo responds:

yeah ive never spent so long on 1 piece of music. its good to finally get some constructive criticism from someone like you who knows a bit more. ill definately be taking your advice, and try to be less repetitive (i have recieved this comment from others too!) but im really chuffed with the overall response to this piece of music, seems like all that time spent has payed off! thanks for this review

[Antibiotics]

good

at the beginning i liked the filter, however the bass went off-key a few times.

and maybe not repeat the bass that many times at the beginning.

once the drums kicked in it sounded pretty cool, the sound went well with the drums, however it was hard to hear the FX in the background, they were noticable tho. (imlistening on headphones, so its of good quality)

when the sound all stopped, then nothin happened when it came back, that wasnt very good...

when you did the stop, you shouldhave went into like a chorus, took the main synth and made it into a 8 sec long rythem and repeated it with super drums or sumptin lol.

idk, you kept the main melody too long, if u keep it and dont change it for that long its very dis-pleasing.

however for the sheer beat of it you get a 7.

REALLY work on the repetitiveness, that thing wouldhave gotten you a 9 if you kept it at like 1 min long (cuz u repeated so much)

overall you had good filtering, and no sounds really overpowered eachother.

you shouldhave AT LEAST ended the song when it was fading out tho.... i thought that was the end and then im like omg its still going?
lol

good job tho

philjo responds:

ok im gonna really try and overloook the amount that i repeat loops! sorry i just had to bring it back in i was so pleased with it!i was over the moon with this beat, i think its the best thing ive done.i was thinkin about changing the drums to be even harder, but that was almost impossibe, it wouldve ended up a wall of noise and distortion!
yeah i shouldve added an extra twist when it came back in at the end, good advice! thank you very much. btw my tru alias is "lunaticpandora" (after FFVIII) i use it as a bbs sig. great review thanks

[D&B Special]

uhh

that was like jazz or new euro style.

the ambiant noises were pretty good, and i liked the feel, but there is no way that was a DNB.

(maybe if u made the drums like umm 100% louder, then MAYBE it could be considered a dnb)
u did pretty good, but too much repitition, and not enough differentiation, if ur gonna make it repeat over and over, make it a short loop..

anyways, u did a good job with the pads and the FX, and stuff. I liked the mix of sounds, they went good with eachother

Garden-Stater responds:

Thanks for the input, if I can, I'll see if I can change the category and if I get enough time, I might edit it down to get rid of some of the repetitiveness.

[Sonic Oil Zone Rock Mix]

uhh

the drums an shit were WAY to loud, i really liked the drums, but they were WAY to loud.
they distorted the other noises.

everything was kinda distorted, use a filter.
if u use fruity loops, press F9 to open up the menu, then click on a check, and ckick fruity filter, mess around with that.

Nice try
PaNdOrA

ssjgodzilla responds:

thx for the tip man, helped out a lot.

[Hymn Of The Fayth (Real Choir)]

yep

I may love final fantasy more than anything else, and love its music more than any other music.

but that will not cause me to give this a good rating.

I dont know what you did to make it (sounds like the origional as if u jus used it as a sample and putsmall noises as it was going)

but its exactly like the origional (different a lil) but not enough.

Glad to see you like final fantasy tho lol

Bezo responds:

The difference is that I'm the one singing it. ;) Oh well, as long as you don't report it as stolen. It's not.

[Sonic 1 Marble Zone Remix]

DAMN

fucking rediculous dude, keep makin that shit.
when i stop being so lazy im gonna put all of ur remixes on my site.

www.TANGENTFILES.TK

i love your shit, where do you get those sounds! how do you make them! damn!

well thanks for another awesome submission

PaNdOrA

[FAN - Trinity]

well...

pretty good. I was hoping for more though when everything kicked in.

Fanta5t1c responds:

lol thx,
i really dont know why all you people like this song, i edited a note in the loop to make it sound good, but yah kno, tank yah newayz

[Circus F@%K - slammin' techno!]

yeah......

I didnt like the high pitched noise that u used after every other beat. It was way too high, and pretty annoying.

I wouldnt really call that a techno, its more of miscilanneous.

You had some interesting sounds in there, but it was pretty annoying....

nice try tho

PaNdOrA

staticnoise responds:

Thanks for the feedback!

[me And myself]

again nice

You use fruity loops im sure, nice use of slayer.

some of the sounds sound the same as in ur other songs, however u always add a few different noises.

I loved the bassdrop halfway through.
