YouriX's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[waves {DU}]

Very good

Lovely track very nice 2step drum beat. Very catchy tune. One thing though why do you have it in trance? It mostly belong in the misc. or ambient section atleast in my opinion.
Anyways i cant say there is anything wrong with your track.

But it seems way to comfortble not daring to try something new and exciting. Its not trying to be diffrint from other ambient tracks. Yeah, easy said then done but there is nothing wrong in trying something new. Plus you want people to reconice your songs just by ear right ;)

sorry i dont usually take a while to respond to these but i wasnt sure what to say

in ambient music usually it lacks structure it flows however which way it wants where as this song even though it has an ambient influence with its soft cool atmosphere but it lacks that laid back i just dont care ambient flow which makes this a song

dont get me wrong ambient music is music just as much as any music its just not a song songs are the story themselves they take you places where as ambient really just sets you up for a story helps but you in the mood

i hope you can understand my crazy thought process and see what i mean sorry for the wait and long reply i just couldnt form the words at the time

Quiet lovely

I have grown to love your music style alot. Your experimental tracks a very magnetic in my opinion. They attract you and make you want to stay there and wonder what is going to happen. Every track you make is soo diffrint from the last wich keeps me on top of my seat. But also makes me wonder will i like the next one?

And i have to say i like it! It did give me a little nostalgia feeling. Like watching a old 80's synthPop scifi-movie. Howevar i feel like some synths are over powering. I am the last person to critic on mixing. Still its not a bad mix i have to add, this is just a matter of taste.

Anyways a good solid track. Cant wait to hear more ;)

InvisibleObserver responds:

Thanks YouriX.

You bring up something I wonder a lot about people who fan me on NG, which is how they feel about my rather spaztic genre uploading. I'm a bit surprised no one has outright said to me something sucks compared to my last few songs.

If you're familiar with a concept of auteur theory (author theory, its a film thing), it roughly suggests that a director of a film (the head honcho making decisions) if artistic, will have throughout ones works collective idea's, themes, styles recogniseable only within that persons work.

A big part of me should hope that similar things are notable between my songs, even though the genre/styles often vary, and further hope that people actually can develope an interest in that dynamic... instead of say always expecting me to do trance non-stop.

As for mixing, The warbly clean synth thats really quite loud at parts is a simple 3 sine layer 3xOsc. I have mixed it to be on top and with its rather wide sound, it does dominate the volume at parts, but I've been careful so to not drown out other things. Have a good listen, it is louder and attention grabbing, but things still go on.

Next weeks submission is a mildly funky fidget-dance-down tempo track. I suspect it will do well on NG.

[Color This World (JM)]

good experimenting

I love experimental junk.I was expecting the main melody but stil a good mix! I sure as hell will put you up on the list. I even might consider animating this!
Good work!

japetheape responds:

Thanks man, good job on the original song as well.
