Ryzmik's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Breathe]

That's an impressive clear mix, in contrast with the filthy stuff I do XD You're good adapting the main melody through the arrangement, and it keeps me very entertained with the bells, arps and stuff going on. It also has a nostalgic touch!

Glad you made a comeback! :D

SpeedoRH responds:

Hey, Ryzmik! It's been a while.

I am really happy that you enjoyed my song, since this is my first complete project since my break ended and normally I think that if I take breaks for too long, I get rusty. Your review gave me a sigh of relief on that!

I especially focused on the ambience on this one, given I was going for a "galactic" style (as you probably noticed already xD) and since galaxies are big and ominous, I thought reverb + bells and arp with high-pass would have been great at reflecting that feel. Glad you liked that touch!

Happy to see you again too! :D

P.s. My song has an uncompressed version on Soundcloud which sounds somewhat better (it's in WAV format, and if it wasn't for the fact Newgrounds doesn't support it, I would have used it here too xD)

[Rage Time]

This is my favourite dubstep: wobbles, growls and a banger drop, had me very hooked in, but some growls have a lot of reverb. Definetly love that squeaky dubstep lead.
The melody at the start is a little detuned but I really like it when it is accompained with a wobble bass.
Althought the structure is not very special from other dubstep songs, it was kinda interesting.
Good luck with the Knock-out round! :D
One last thing: Bruh, that "Thank you for trying this demo" at 1:14 lol

Linearity responds:

IDK what the hell that is, Probs my cracked version of Sylenth

[Dubstep test]

That was good, the intro had me focused on the music but needs an EQ, don't know if the mids are loud or the highs are quiet. And I have to agree with your rival, it needs some growls, at least that 'yah' thing to fill the silence parts at the drop... or at least reverse reverb if your idea was to make every beat to sound hard after silence... Well it was a test, you don't need to take seriously what I said, but it's just a tip.
Btw did you won?

OVERSCORE responds:

Well, this was my first time doing dubstep, and Snipeshot isn’t really my rival, he just makes a lot of dubstep and told me to try to make some.

Plus, I’m a slave to reverb

[Cosmos]

Incredible song, and omg those bass growls, you could have a few more! Nah just kidding :P
All the chords, bass and lead makes the drops really huge, but sincerely, I didn't find the first half of the drops really interesting, as it's the same melody played at the breaks so I kind of see it coming, but it sounds hard not gonna lie. The very only thing you could fix at the drop is the snare, feels a little dark at the drop, maybe it's hard to make it clear with all the bright chords sounding (it happened to me).

T3M8CH responds:

Thanks for such a detailed review :)

[Don't Stop! (Club Radio Edit)]

Great dancecore tune!

Catchy melody, buzzy bass, bassy drums and good lead sound design. Enough to make a bop! This feels just like the classic 2000's techno music videos you find everywhere on YouTube with the default moviemaker intro and anime girl background lol
On the other hand, everything sounds very dry. Only the lead feels like having a room reverb. Even though it still sounds dynamic without effects, thing that I couldn't achieve doing dance/hands up ever in my life lol. The square synth at the end is a little off sync in the first notes.

Btw Labels aren't really a great thing, won't make much difference if you get into a label to distribute your music. But if you want to be chosen by one you need a lot more than this, but I'm sure you will get into a label with time and perseverance.

Eeyanzai responds:

Greetz! Thanks for response!

[Peroxide]

I honestly have listened to this like 5 times and still don't get tired! All the mix sounds very good to me, the trance bass fit wells among the reese bass, thing that I find really hard when playing two basses and mixing them.
The little piano in the last verse could be a little more loud, it's sounds kind of like very wet in reverb. Apart from that, the chord progression and lead synths really hooked me in. Great to see you in the frontpage again :D

SpeedoRH responds:

Thx a ton for the lovely review man! I do agree my song has a few stuff that can be fixed, but apart from that I really really REALLY appreciate the compliments.

[Chronos (ft. Carlos Delgado)]

It's incredible you used, if I'm not wrong, analog-like leads for the main melodies, cause I prefer complex digital sounds over analog sounds, but you managed it to make them fit very well in this theme!
The piano was a nice touch at the end. Would be a nice main theme for an adventure videogame!

Synfang responds:

To be completely honest, I wasn't even thinking about analog vs digital when I made this, but yes, agreed on it having a video game feel. Thanks for the feedback! :D

[Astromia MEW RMX]

Very empty. There's no bassline, no additional melodies, there's only like five instruments which plays the main score. You could have added hi hats or more percussion instead of just a kick. I think this remixes are quite overrated.

mewzmuzic responds:

:(((((.

[Walk away (Vassamo remix)]

It sounds really professional! Really like this version, it has what the original needs, some powerful chords and arps. The final chorus was amazing. Nice remix!

jotpl01 responds:

Thanks mate!
