Sydosys's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Summertime madness]

it's a little bit hard to hear the drums. the synths are good, but they fight for space with the drums. a good way to solve this is with sidechain, or basically making it so that the volume of the synths goes down for a bit when a drum plays

tnx yeh not mastered or eq'd it yet

yuh

[Ballade Pour Adeline (Oldman's "Dubstep" Remix)]

I think some sidechain would go a long way. The mix is pretty loud so I would recomment turning it doen and giving stuff some more room and balance. Aside from that, pretty good!

[Hold Me, Love Me]

Like larrynachos said, layering would really help the lead. Personally, I would suggest layering it with a supersaw stab. If you have FL Studio, FL Flex has some great synthwave sounds to use or maybe base it off of.

[reflections]

Really cool sounds! Actually kind of reminds me of some of my earlier stuff at the supersaw part. The basses starting at like 1:50 are WILD! I would suggest some sidechaining, especially for those supersaws.

Also, gotta love the vocal samples at like 3:00 lmao

[GLitch MOnstER]

The samples and glitchy stuff at the beginning is really cool! I love the sound design and all the different elements. Some of the sounds are kinda wonky like at 1:00, but I think that's just a genre thing. I will note that the part starting at 1:30 is very similar to the first half of the song and so it makes it pretty repetitive. The mix is also a bit loud and that makes it a bit over-compressed in my opinion, so I might suggest turning the levels a bit to give the mix a bit more room.

Really cool, though, pretty F U N K Y .

[AIM 2020 Wake Up Call]

I like this song! Good mix, nice chord progression, good instrumentation, and good vocals. The only thing I would suggest is to just turn the auto tune down a bit, as I think it makes it sound unnatural.

SoulSecure responds:

I used the atrocious amount of autotune for artistic effect lol
I updated the description to explain this.
