Hoeloe's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Marissa Found The Thing]

Aww... I was expecting Touhou...

Regardless, this piece was okay, but in my opinion the bass was a bit too harsh. It hurt my ears. It also didn't really go anywhere, staying more or less the same throughout the entire piece.

However, my speciality isn't really in this sort of music, so my comments may well be totally out of order, they are simply what I feel.

WeAreBlarg responds:

Thank you very much for your review Hoeloe! I take your critic and I will work on my audio mastering skills.

[Molgera [Ocarina]]

I agree, too much reverb.

Far too much reverb on this. It's quite difficult to listen to. As well as that, the timings are rather erratic, and it doesn't stick to any sort of constant tempo, meaning that it sounds very jarring, since it's constantly slowing down and speeding up without any real reason. Fix these two things, and you'll have a fairly decent track.

Ocarina-Kid responds:

Thanks for the honesty and tips, appreciate it. Btw I'm a huge fan of your work, your remixes are beyond amazing man.

[Dj-C -Attack at Dawn. (WiP)]

It's alright.

It was quite good, sounded okay. Not my style of music, really, but I'm not one to rate on that. My beef with this is that it is very hard to hear an actual melody, but it really sounds like you just tried to make something loud & dance-styled without really giving much thought as to a tune. There is a tune there, but it's hard to grasp, and doesn't really do much except repeat. Perhaps a little more variety in the tune, and make the tune stand out a little over the background sounds would make this piece better.

Chimy727 responds:

yea thats a good point...
thanks for the review and criticism!

[LoZ: Toybox windmill]

Nice, but too much bass.

Nice sounds, but the bass is too dominant, it hurts my ears to listen to it.

Try turning that down a little, and it should sound a lot better.

LuigiSounds responds:

Hmm, i guess that's taste. I liked the loud bass in there :P
Oh well.

[Molasses Punch]

It was a'right

It was quite good to begin with, but then that really high pitched, fast "instrument" came in, and it really did it no justice. The pacing of it was just out, so it sounded as though random notes had been slapped together. Remember that something doesn't have to be impossibly fast to be good.

Kajenx responds:

LIES!! :D

[Corpse Bride - Vector's Song]

LOL VECTOR!

Very well done piece. But I should tell you the difference between 'Victor' and 'Vector'. Victor = a name. Vector = a line with a specific direction (used in maths).

cazok responds:

Ah... My mistake :)

[Layla!]

You're right...

Even putting this in techno form, which usually wrecks a song, has kept it great! No way you can hurt this. I still prefer the original though, so 9/10 for you.

Laikros responds:

Many thanks. :3
