Tigerfrog's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Desert Caves]

Good Stuff

For some reason this sounds a lot like the command and conquer music. It would fit perfectly for any desert level. Its just ambient, interesting, and non-intrusive enough to fit perfectly in any video game.

Pumo responds:

Thanks for your comment :)
Gladd to see that i achieved what i wanted on this piece (as i can tell also from the other reviews)

[Revolving Storm]

Do us all a favor and

Try using the original chord progressions, because I notice the left hand piano does the same chord throughout the whole song. Give it a listen. If it doesn't sound better, then ignore my comment, but I think using the complete progression would really help this song.

Other than that, the ambience and piano melodies sound marvelous.

Musica17 responds:

Thank you very much for your review, I shall take your review to heart and try the chord progressions.

[SilentHill Promise Reprise DNB]

Excellent

The drums sound great, and the bass sounds good except when it plays some of the higher notes. Its amazing what you can do with a simple repeated melody when you have drums that sound that good. Perhaps a little bit repetitive and the bass sounds off in some parts, but fantastic none the less.

deadmetal420 responds:

thanks bro! yea i didnt realy give it my all in this production. it was just me messin around getting a little practice in so i dont loose touch with my DNB side. anyway, thanks for the review!

[DjSc00p - Head Up(Final)]

Great Stuff...but

It sounds an awful lot like DJ Sammy's "Heaven" remix, seems like the chords and some parts of the song are borrowed from this song. Just listen for yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuBmiu 68ECU.

Other than originally issues, and Newgrounds tending to favor Trance, a Smashing good song here.

DjSc00p responds:

Newgrounds doesn't favor trance...a lot of people who dont listen to trance even liked this song. Trust me, if i hear a good song i dont care what genre it is, if it can catch my eears and make me enjoy it, then i like it. Its not favored its just that the trance music making dj's are good? Ever thought of that?

And about Dj Sammy, my song sounds nothing like that... o.o. Tell me what seconds of sammy's song sounds like mine... I didnt even think about that song one second when making my song. Thats two totally different songs, and its not my fault my song sounds like Sammy's. Dont just give a 7 because it sounds like other songs, i've heard so many more songs that sound like other songs that still were great, and original. So what if the notes sound the same or something, as long as they didnt steal the melody and stuff.

[Ice Cream (Full Mix)]

Trance with Rap Vocals

Although i really hate most rap, this song does a good job combining rap vocals with an amazing trance song. Trance with these vocals is a daring genre cross, and it sounds great.

Teck071 responds:

Thank you, much agreed!

[Grinachi Contest]

Amazing!

This is absolutely amazing. The the way those complex synth and pad patterns work together creates an amazing atmosphere. The drums are fast and intense, but not so loud as to intrude on the amazing melodies. The song suits the vocals amazingly well as well. Fabulous!

SHADOWFOX2 responds:

Haha yeah thanks.
I really tried with working with someone else's lyrics.
He wasn't even really singing. It's like singing in the shower kinda
But I made it work, and turned something that would ordinarily be laughed at into something serious.
ANYWAYS, thanks for the review!

[Madness - I like it]

I noticed that synth melody from JENOVA

Sounds way too cluttered, the song is trying to do too much and the parts conflict with each other.

truskamurai responds:

I figured that when i was making it. Trust me, if I did what i was going to originally, this would be increibly cluttered. I think i will edit my submission and take out the strings in the chorus part, and lengthen it out. Thanks for your constructive criticism! :D

[first proper try at dnb]

Excellent Drums, Bass is lacking

This is excellent for your first try at a DnB song. The drums sound good and have enough variation, but the bass is kind of weak. I could imagine a strong, low pulsing bass with a lot more power going well with this song.

Other than that, figure out a way to add more elements like pad or sound effects in and you have a great song.

coupland responds:

thanks for the review, i can never find the sort of bass your talkin about and im pretty useless when it comes to makin things myself haha

[~{Ready to FIGHT}~]

Very awesome

I REALLY like the synth and bass melodies, they work very well together. Everything is good, but the only thing i would expect is more/louder drums at some point in the song, something besides the amen break. Very Nice!

alextheDJ responds:

Thanks! Yah your right about the drums. The amen breaks took a long time and I liked the way they sounded... I guess I got carried away, but who wouldn't?

anyway thanks for the review!

[ZMM Breme Walking RMXLinkfan]

Synth is way too loud

More instruments would be nice too.

linkfanzeldamario responds:

Okay, I try must next time ^^ "
