Cpt-Nemo's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[you cant touch this-SPEED MIX-]

Sorry to be harsh, but...

YOU HAVE GOT THIS SHIT ALL WRONG. GO LOOK IN THE RULES FOR UPLOADING AUDIO.

"1. You are making the legal claim that it is your own original work.
2. Loops you made from existing copyrighted songs are not your own original work."

SINCE YOU CANNOT MAKE THE LEGAL CLAIM THAT YOU WROTE 'YOU CAN'T TOUCH THIS'" AND PROBABLY NOT ANY OF THE OTHER CONTENT YOU SUBMITTED. IT ISN'T SIMPLY A QUESTION OF YOU SUBMITTING IT EITHER. NEWGROUNDS CAN GET IN TROUBLE FOR HOSTING COPYWRITTEN MATIERAL AS WELL. I SERIOUSLY HOPE THAT YOUR IP GETS BANNED SIMPLY FOR THE SHEER STUPIDITY OF YOUR ACTIONS (NAMELY NOT READING THE FEW RULES THERE WERE). GO TO HELL.

skipperr12 responds:

ya know, your right. now i want you to say this to just about every song in the videogames mix area.
yes, this song is copyrighted or whatever, but so is mario,kirby,final fantasy...the list goes on.
now if your really concerned about this. then,as i said, yell at everyone else too. and please, for the record, be a little more civilized in your reviews. that would be nice. i mean really..."go to hell"? c'mon man, is that really making either of our lifes any easier?

[°°Experiment 001°°]

Good and Bad

Good because I liked how "brought the funk." I also appreciated the diversity in sounds you used.

Bad because I thought that the drums would probably sound better if you used a live recorded loop instead of creating your own from samples (which is at least what it sounds like to me). Also, when it finished I was left going, "that was it?" I would say make it longer and develop your musical ideas more; perhaps even put in a different section that develops a separate idea (like a bridge or something of that nature). Great work in any case.

Whirlguy responds:

Yeah i know, it sounds pretty good, but i didnt feel like working on it anymore so i kinda though: "done" so i posted this as an experiment. Btw, I do not use loops for the beat, i think it makes it... not your own. Thanks for the review(:

[Pizzicato ReduX]

Excellent, although still needs some fixes...

I love what you did with my piece! My only complaint is that the sampled sound still feels like it is slightly ahead of your overdubbed beat. I also think that you should have made it a little longer and added a middle section to it. Otherwise, you are absolutely right...it is your best work yet!

f2x1 responds:

ThanX Chris , but as i sayed you deserve 50% credit from this one!

[Piano fest Beta]

Its getting there!

I like it, but I think that the drums sound a little far out for what you have going on with the piano. I mean you should keep the low drum, but it is the higher drum that sounds out of place the most. You should also incorporate the guitar a little sooner and give it a larger and more important part in the piece, otherwise it doesn't sound like it belongs.

I still love the harmonic progression of it, but it needs a melody (hard to write a good one, though...*beware*). Also, good job on figuring out how to control the volume level of the whole piece.

Pyrostudios responds:

I did give it sorta a melody its more of a repeating thing in between the two parts

[a piano fest!]

Pretty Good!

I like what you have done, however you should consider adding more instruments, like I can hear strings or something like that. I can still appreciate if your intention was just piano and percussion. However, there is one problem (why clarity is an 8)...you need watch the volume level of your track. It peaked too high at one point and started sounding distorted. Maybe try using a compressor? Other than that I like it!

Pyrostudios responds:

yeah i think i should turn it down....i am editing it as i type this and makin a beta version i am just trying to make a good track for th ecollab if i get in!

[Peaceful dreams]

Good work!

I like your work (except for the techno thing, that was uncomfortable for me to have to listen to). My only comment to you on your music is that you need a melody (which I understand is a difficult thing to write) and some sort of form (where the music recapitulates; ABA type thing or verse 1 - chorus - verse 2 - chorus - verse 1, something like that). That is why you get all 10's except for overall.

Pyrostudios responds:

yeah i understand the techno thing....it sucks i am not that good at techno. and i understand i need a melody but i can't write a really good one at the moment. But thanx!
