UnderTown's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Left Land]

Excellent.

Very good work! Better than most of mine, in fact. I had to listen to it again after I finished it. You've got a lot of instruments going that really blend well together, and a steady beat. I especially liked the section with the chuckling at about 1:52. That was a good addition.

I might suggest you make a little more variation, though. As you said, it is a bit repetitive. Maybe switch the octave of the guitar every once in a while, or break up the drum beat with a new pattern at some point.

This song is definitely going on my favorites list.

gnrbl responds:

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'll keep your suggestions in mind to keep future work from being too repetitive.
I'll have to check out your work some time.

[Broken headphones]

Pretty nice.

Starts out as a nice quiet tune, then gets a bit more interesting with the synths added in in the second half.

My main complaint is that there are parts where the instruments seem really out of sync. Such as 00:12, 1:25, 1:36 and a few parts afterwords. That kind of took away a lot from the song.

Still, very nice.

trekopep responds:

Yeah, there are quite a few parts that I could've, and probably should've, worked a bit harder on. But yeah, thanks for the review! :D

[Abolish [EBM]]

Interesting.

Sounds a bit more like industrial then EBM to me. And, you know, you did put it under industrial. But I'm not sure the EBM tag is called for.

Contrary to everyone else, I think the "So let's talk about it." was fairly well placed. Although the second "Let's talk about it" could have been omitted. Did you record your own voice for it?

I think you may have overdone the distortion a bit as well. It's just a little too grainy.

But who am I kidding; it's still an excellent song. It has a nice rhythm and the instruments go well together. Keep it up!

thanks bro. still workring on mastering, so more constructive crit is useful. Im proll going to start selling my music for cigerette money haha =P.

[Stimulator [EBM]]

EBM :D

I am a gigantoc faggot when it comes to EBM. I would have gay sex with EBM any day. This song is especially sexy to my ears. Please, please, please make EBM more often. I'm trying to start making my own EBM but all my songs come out as... Well, something that isn't EBM. So if you could give me any tips on how to do it properly I'd appreciate that.

I really like the drum beat that goes through most of the song. It's very repetitive but it helps to emphisize the rest of the instruments. I also like the little flair in the pattern that happens at 00:09, 00:25 and several other parts, as well as whatever that instrument at 00:38 is.

Very good, and hope to see more from you soon.

Dj-Fanta5t1c responds:

thanks alot man, this is one of my most structured songs, this came to me completely random, i sat in front of my comp and make basslines until i came up with this, and the little flairs that happen are made on a different pattern so i could place accordingly. they were basslines that i ddint wanna use as the main ones. mixed up the synths, a little mastering, and little mixing, and there u go. i made this in about an hour =P

Also if you notice, most of my songs i submit really late at night.
