Static-Changes's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dark Angel - F-777]

You Never Fail

F-777, you never cease to amaze me. I've listened to your songs for a long time, and they never get old. Every new song is unique and epic in its own way. I like how this one has a hint of dubstep in it. You have inspired me through the years to start making music myself. I'm currently working on my first song. I really enjoy your work. Keep it up man!

[[TC] Timeless (demo)]

good, but not complete

Pros: Contrary to other reviews, and you description, I really like the auto tune effect at the beginning. It really enhanced the whole electronic feel to the song. Good beats.

Cons: Like others, I think the song could have been a bit longer. It ends very suddenly. Also the auto tune singing in the beginning seems to stop halfway through the song, and all that's left is a song with a few voice effects thrown in. There isn't really a strong melody in the song after the singing stops.

Additional Comments: While hearing the first part of the song, it sounds like a great piece, but then it stops suddenly, and turns into something that the listener isn't really expecting. If you turned the first part of the piece into a full song, It would be amazing.

Ratings: 4/5, 7/10.

[Tracing the Sky]

good

Pros: I like the variety after the beginning. It switches frequently so you dont get bored. Good transitions also.

Cons: The intro didn't really catch my interest very well. It is somewhat of a higher pitched song without much bass or kick to even it out. The beginning got a little repetitive until the transition at 0:51. You didn't really need the voice effect at 1:59. The song also ended quite suddenly.

Additional comments: Good song with a nice catchy melody and supporting instruments, but it needs a little extra polishing.

Ratings: 3/5, 7/10

Agreed i really don't know how this got the top 30th :( thank you for the honest and elaborate review.

[Day Dreamer Waltz]

nice

Pros: I love the piano part. It sounds great, and very calming. Everything sorta fits together when the beat comes in at 2:05.

Cons: It is a good length song, but the different parts come a bit too slowly. I was getting kinda bored listening to the piano until the beat came in, and other orchestral instruments. Also, the background noise isn't really needed. It may get annoying after hearing 4 minutes of cars passing.

Additional comments: Good work, nice and calming.

Ratings: 4/5, 7/10

Enzer0 responds:

its supposed to be quite slow - something you could put in the background when your falling asleep. The cars passing by where just an addition, it made me think of a scene with the song and thought it might have the same effect on people.

[Truth In Dreams (ft. T-Free)]

nicely done

Pros: I really like the beat in this song. The orchestral instruments in the background add to the calming effect of the song, while there is also a distinct melody. Good job with the balance especially with the solo at 1:12.

Cons: The ending seemed a bit subtle. Maybe it could've ended on a sustained note or chord, and not a quick fade out.

Additional comments: I really like how you blended a modern hip-hop beat with a smooth orchestral melody. It fits very nicely.

Ratings: 5/5, 9/10

Thanks! Yeah I agree with the ending, even a fade out would have been nice. Ah well, cheers!
