DetiousMusic's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Xtrullor - Terran Era]

I think you guys are thinking too traditionally ;) (about the buildup) Listen again and take into consideration all the instruments and synths taking part there, hence the tag "tension."

Sick ass orchestra here dude, it really paints a picture in my mind that I can't explain well.

5/5

[NK - Nine Circles (Xtrullor Remix)]

Was this inspired by Au5? Just wondering d:

Dope atrack yo.

Xtrullor responds:

Haha yes. Definitely the new remix of Fields of Grey has a lot of influence in this track.

[3MBER - Move]

Fuckin next level, good synths, they're all nice and fat!
The synths in the background are tight.
Good timing and arrangement on the whole thing.
Reallyyyyyyy diggin the synths bro :DD

Holy shit! It's Detious music! I'm your biggest fan!

[Xtrullor - Ichor]

5 stars, and gimme some kicks ya? lol

Xtrullor responds:

Currently building my own personal drum sample collection, will give out as a free pack once I got enough.

About time we get some epic snares too ya?

[Endless]

Really cool. Arrangement is really nice, even the mix is good. The only thing I don't think fits is the intro square lead (It's sooooooooo basic) and the kick, it sounds like you switched kicks at 1:40, that one is much better!

I think in a few years you could come back to this and make it huge and bassy.

[GTB - Ascending To Heaven (Instrumental Mix)]

Awesome track! Trust me man I love me some trance, a lot of my music is really trance inspired. I really like your synth choice and arrangement. The main bell chords are fantastic. The only two gripes I have are that the kick doesn't punch through the mix enough, it's a good selection but it's just not loud enough! The last thing is the guitar, it added a nice layer but the treble is causing distortion, I'd look into it. d: All in all it's a great track andI hope you get those vocals in!

Last thing..

Can I try remixing this? o:

Dj-Gonzo responds:

Thanks for the feedback! :D I give you my permission to remix it, only put a link here, that will be enough. Also if you want the .flp I can give you my email (just if you want to avoid guessing the notes, etc.) It really makes me happy that you want to remix this xD. Send me a PM if you want the email or something else.

[GTB ft. Himeko - Tomorrow(Is The Day) [PREVIEW]]

Really cool man! The first thing I noticed is that her vocals are reeeally quiet. Could be reverb but I'd work on mixing in her voice a little better, once it starts building it you can't even understand the lyrics. d: You're drop is nice and melodic, maybe layer it with other synths? Try some arps or pads to go under it. I also thought that some percussion in the drop would be wonderful. A wide crash under the kicks with some 1/8th bar hi hats would really make the drop pop. Great start though man!

Dj-Gonzo responds:

Thanks for your review! The vocals are filtered now because we are trying to record two or three another vocal samples to make it look like a chorus (without the FL Chorus FX) when we finish it it will sound loud enough. About the percussion, yes, you're right man, I'm a baterist and I understand why you're saying something like that. Thanks again for this in-depth analysis from my review. And also for the follow! Keep it up, I love your work too.
