DivoFST's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Kytoon - Magnifying Glass]

Super smooth and creamy, i love it|
Excellent job!

[Reveries]

Whoah, this is so far the best submission i have heard in the NGADM 2017 (and i am enamored of Kor Rune). It is totally amazing, superbly mixed, well played and filled with emotion!

bassfiddlejones responds:

A true compliment, thank you sir!

[The rise of the machine]

This is very impressive for something that was done in a day!
I love the more melodic part, it really has a soul and emotion!
However it sounds a bit repetitive, only has 2 parts that basically repeat (surely for the lack of time)
Good job!

[Stardust]

Very futuristic! I enjoy the main synth choices and the overall mix is very clean sounding. It would fit perfectly in a retro/futuristic game ^^
Good job!

Teckmo-X responds:

Thank you! I was thinking futuristic when I was making this. The best way I could do something like this is when I go back to my old roots of music making. I didn't want to put too much synth in this piece actually only used about 4-5 to give it the background. One of them is hard to here because it's infrasound while the others are there but just more on the back side of things. I used good variety of leads to compose this one. Not much was needed with mixing just leveling really. As many people have asked why I didn't add more to it would be pointless. The piece already has enough of the melodic value I wanted in it. Leading it on would have have no chance other than the length of the song. Nonetheless thank you, I appreciate your review on it and glad you liked it!

[Dust Sweeper]

Very interesting, you did quite an interesting raw song. I love it in general, i think it has a lot of you in it, but thats just the automatic advantage that we "vocal track NewGrounders" have :D
I think maybe the vocals lack a bit of effects to sound less raw and a bit more professional, specially in the first verse and a slight pitch correction.
That being said i love everybody that actually uses vocals on their tracks <3
And your track is very solid!
Great job!

LunacyEcho responds:

=> a lot of you in it =>

Thanks! I tried hard to make it sound more original than some of my other works (and *totally* not because Skye is a judge this year.)

=> vocals lack a bit of effects =>

Thanks for the suggestion—since this comment, the vocals have been processed! Hopefully it mixes better. This is my first time actually working with vocals, so I'm hoping that feedback like yours will help me get better at integrating them into my music. :)

Thanks for the comment, DivoFST! And good luck in the competition. :)

[Sunset Highwave]

Whoah, this sounds incredibly clean! It has a bit of Depeche Mode in it, gotta love it ^^
Excellent job!

EvilRaccoon responds:

*Googles Depeche Mode*
Wow, I'm digging this! :D Thanks for the review!

[Breaking Through]

Really cool sounding guitars and massive skill showed as always. It reminds of something that could play in a fighting game (Guilty Gear kinda stuff). I feel maybe a little too light on the low frequencies but that might be my headset fault!

Good luck in NGADM!

[Glycerine (cover)]

I really like your voice man!
You should get a cheap recording sistem and do some more polished covers or originals, i would surely be interested in listening to that! :)

[In Gods Mournful Design]

The chaos....ZOMBIE MOVIE!!! I would put this on a zombie movie no doubt!
I love how desperate everything sounds, it sucks the hope out of you...in an awesome way!
I feel its a bit on the long side, thats the only complain
Great job Lich!

[Dive In (NGADM '15)]

This gets you into a Sky adventure!
Love how the song sends out an awesome universe aura!
Great job Birdinator!

Birdinator99 responds:

Thank you so much!
