Ethalyn's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Adrenaline FX]

I like it =)

Cool effects through the whole thing, and the melodies reminds me of the old style games, Double Dragon ftw!

Awesome beat, a good drum and bass beat. Did you make it from scratch or did you loop or preset beat? If you made it yourself i would like to say VERY good job on it =)

Amazingly great sounds and effects as mentioned earlier. You have a very high pithced tweaking sound as your background layer sometimes, a cool and original add =)

Now i dont know drum and bass a whole lot, i can just tell if its good or not, and this is clearly awesome!

Current Score
4.44 / 5.00 (+ 0.0012)

10/10
5/5

A top 5 spot well deserved! Now lets just see if the top 30 list takes you in ;-) It should!

A great song, good melodies and a very strong background beat!

Thank you for your time.

Thx for taking the time to review :D Yea I guess it does kinda sound like double dragon. All the beats and melodys were made from scratch. No loops. But no worrys man, im new to this dnb thing too XD And it looks like ill make top 30

[§-Time is of the Essence-§(D)]

Ah, dig the drum rythm!

The drum rythm in this is so cool. And your melodies/sounds are just awesome.

Good opening, i like the way you add just more and more STUFF basicly to it, very much depth in this track, keeps its energy and never gets me to fast forward, since there is always something new happening =)

Current Score
3.97 / 5.00 (+ 0.27)

[.HLS. Distant]

Very good work

This song is just off the hook man, now i know that you could barely fix anything at the tend there, but that hihat line is really just chewing my ears out, i just wish you would have done something more original with it rather than just add two strikes after eachother =/

BUT, the intro bassline is absolutely awesome, and i gotta give it to you that the main melody is so god damn catchy. Great work.

Good sounds all through and actually very long song (by Newgrounds standards) Cool adds, and i basicly stayed interested in it for 4:42 minutes =)

Current Score
4.30 / 5.00 (+ 0.13)

Very good track, only i wish you did something more original with the hihat line... BUT, please remember that everything else is at the peak of perfection, your getting really good man =)

Thank you for your time.

Thanks man! Yea, you asked me earlier to change the hi-hat line, but I didn't really know what to do with it, and I thought 2 strikes was better than one.

But anyways, thanks for the review!

[.HLS. Melo 3 (Demo)]

Whoah, nice riff man =D

Nice riff, should definatly be finished, catchy and very original!

10/10 man, the full one will be awesome, very cool melodies!

heartless1298 responds:

Thanks man! I'll tell you on MSN when it's done. Although it won't be done for quite some time.

[[EB] -Independent Solution]

Hey! MGS!

This has the quality to be either the background theme or the menu theme for a great PS3 or Xbox action/shooting game! I love the distorted like snare, and really just the feel of the song TOTALLY gets to me!

I love the notes, very mystical and action filled at the same time. Really tense feel over them and they just really dig deep into your brain, ive been humming the tune ever since i heard it the first time. My friend, THIS, was amazing!

Great work, this deserves top 5!

10/10
5/5

Awesome, great work!

Thank you for your time.

[{Ceb} The Cosmos [DnB NG Cut]]

VERY cool!

Hey man, this was just incredibly awesome, the beat was awesome just through the entire thing, and your use of sub sounds was awesome. Really detailed track with a lot of interesting stuff going on! =D

Good job on the mastering, it sounded really good!

i am giving this a ten, cause i went through it 3 times, enjoyed just as much every time! A perfect track for a background theme!

10/10
5/5

Awesome! fav!

Thank you for your time.

Cebster responds:

:} hahah thanks man and yeah i put allot of ambiance but some is hard to hear unless you separate the sounds in your head.

[Eclipse [Apoptygma Tribute]]

Like the new style! Has some of your old to ^_^

I have to say that your music just is unlike everything i hear on Newgrounds lately (Thats right, Newgrounds with a capitol N) It has so much energy and everything is just so god damn perfect, its like you take every transition, every bridge, just everything into account when you are making a song, i like that. Perfection.

I like the start, dont know what the hell that first sound is. When you hit the tiny vocal clip and start, im just waiting for the awesome kick. It finally came after a VERY short while, as said your music has alot of energy, i think the beats you use are part of doing this. Very original hihat line and a snare i think instead of a clap, and as an add to that your kick is just at the right place.

I love the synths, very powerfull and clear, not to much or to little delay or reeverb.

As i also said, i think you take EVERY transition and bridge into account when you make a song. The construction of this song is just so perfect, and when you reach the climax i just start loving this song even more.

Current Score
4.00 / 5.00 (+ 0.082)

I see your daily 0-voters have already raped this one, me and you both know that this song deserves a better score than this!

10/10
5/5

Awesome song, perfection. The beat along with the synth job is so powerfull.

Thank you for your time.

SkyMarshall responds:

Haha yeah. Just as the carpet bombers of teh zero makes their innitial approach to wreck the day - you come along with this awesome review. Loved it.

The start of the song is actually an Amiga 500 loading up a disk. I thought it was fitting, with the old-school Amiga-kicks and percussion and such. Hehe :) Glad you liked the somewhat strange choice of beat and percussion. I worked a lot on it to make it "industrial" and different. I guess it achieved som drive and energy. At least I hope so.

As you say, the transitions are important. I actually do work a lot on those. The reason is that it makes the song thump along much smoother and sound interesting.

I do love your thoughts here. Makes it all worth while.
So until next time man ... :)

[Circles_DJ Sanryd]

Great track, could go Benny Benassi's way!

Now if you ask me, this track could be a really long Benny Benassi club hit, listen to some of his tracks if you havent already - Satisfaction and Whos Your Daddy.

Nice one this, i would love for a more Benny Benassi style, because its there, it just misses some of the flavour, love the little reverse reeberb thingys you got here.

Current Score
3.98 / 5.00 (+ 0.21)

5/5

Awesome, Benny Benassi style!

Thank you for your time.

Sanryd responds:

OMFG, I did not even see that, but you're right... this could become a Benny Benassi style... i need to do some changes obviously to the main synth and beat, but its there.... THANK YOU... Let you know when i have an update.

[.HLS. Russia Privjet (Live)]

VERY good remix! =D

I like that you did a live version, very cool idea. And i gotta say that this remix is among the best ive hear, great job man =]
