papkee's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[JBI - The Last Legend]

Bravo.

Could've used a few more instruments and a bit more variation, but overall you've created a very nice piece here. What samples/library did you use?

[Feltip Leaf]

A very nice piece. Could use a little more articulation, but overall a very nice melody. The intro is actually very nice; it contrasts with the rest of the tempo to give it nice, human feel. Also, the simplicity of the instruments used gives it quite a bit of emotion. Overall, good job. If you keep at it you will go places.

May I ask what program you used?

pftq responds:

Thanks - I agree about the articulation. Going to keep working on that in future songs.

I used FL Studio with VST plugins for East West.

[Stratospheric Escape(WIP)]

I think, overall, it's a very good song. You could touch up on the bass, as has been said by the other reviews. If you like those vocals in, than you could add either some reverb, delay, or some other effect so they don't stand out so much. I especially liked the guitar, but it could've used the variation it has after the drop through the whole song. The whole song seems to repeat itself over again after the second break. So, overall a nice work, but a little more variation could make it a whole lot better.

[Android Tears (Proto 2.0)]

Overall, a really good plan here. I know it's still in Proto phase, so here are a few tips. Maybe try and make the wobble bass a little more deep and agressive. Other than that, the lead was pretty cool. Nice job on the build too.

SirSirius responds:

Thanks for the feedback! You're right, I'm not really sure about the bass / drop myself... I believe it doesn't really fit to the rest of the track. Maybe it sounds better when I tune it down a little I will try that. If this doesn't help I'll probably make a completely new bass section :)

[Kaskrin - Rehabilitation]

Man, that was some intense bass. Neat sampling, although a longer intro wouldve been nice. Overall, though, good job.

[Hipster Vs. Square [WIP]]

I have to say, this song makes me jealous. I agree that it could use a bit more variety in the bass, and a bit more variation in the leads might be a good touch, but overall this tops most of my techno songs, which means that you've done a good job! Maybe changing up the chord progression at some point for a bridge would be a cool touch as well.

SirSirius responds:

Wow thanks a lot!

My big problem is: I am a lazy fuck. Most of my tracks are work in progress, most of them are done in one day and once it sounds halfway good I already start a new project... I guess I could do so much more with it if I just stick to my tracks until they are perfect...

Gonna check out your stuff now :)

[ZUK - Little Ship OST]

Why are you a fan of my songs? This piece pretty much blows anything I have written right out of the water. Great job!

[Piano Unwind]

Nice Ambient Piece

This song is pretty cool.

The ambient background complements and contrasts the piano very well. Overall, you've done a fine job.

Thanks. :)
