Haggard's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Valley]

\m/

This sounds very different from your other songs I've been listening to. But it sure sounds like a Jurian song. So I guess this means you have a very unique and distinuishable style in your music.

The song sounds again very calm and relaxing and even though I think of bongos to be a more impulsive instruments they fit themselvs well into the song and sound calm and relaxing, too.

Like Coop said in his review, this sounds very much like foyer music, as it stays in the background so well.

I really like the flow of this one. It's just the kind of tune I need for today as yesterday was very busy ^^.

The sound is super relaxing. I like how the guitar and the piano go along together. They complete each other perfectly.

Only negative thing here is the sound of the guitar, but then again, it fits very good into the song.

Good job!

[+After the Fallout+]

\m/

At first I hoped to get to hear something "Fallout-like" (talking about the PC game "Fallout" here, of course) as the songs there create an awesome post-nuclear war-feeling. I was a bit dissappointed when listening to the track for the first time.

But after listening to this a few times more I get that "post nuclear" feeling you are talking about in your description. All sounds sad and even a bit regretful and I can imagine the musicians sitting in an destroyed building and jamming along a bit.

I think you should try to get a more "destroyed" sound here. Some reverbs would be nice, and in this context even a few dissonant tunes would work. It's after a nuclear war after all, and maybe the instruments are a bit broken, too.

WritersBlock responds:

Lol, yeah. Thanks for the review. I've kind of got this ruined landscape, and these musicians with clean, polished instruments, in pristine condition, reverb should help.
Cheers.

[Toxic Snake]

It's a nice melody combined with an awesome deep bass (it nearly blew my speakers away ^^).
But I think it sounds a bit too dull during the song. Some higher notes would give this song a bit more depth I think. Also the abrupt ending doesn't really fit there. Either try to loop the track or simply make the outro a bit longer ;) .

Assios responds:

Thanks for your review. Glad you liked the bass and the melody. I agree with you on that the ending doesn't fit. You're not the first who said that, so I think I'll change it:)

[p4c-Revenge]

\m/

Nice beat and very diversified.

When the song started I thought at first that this is going to be very repititve. But you added a lot of variations to the song, good work!

I especially like the bassline, it's nice and heavy, just the way a bassline shoudl be ^^.

I don't like the clap-sounds in the song. I think they're just being overused by many audio artists, so I am a little tired of hearing them in songs.

[Dad 'n Me]

\m/

Great song!

Songs with chainsaws are always great, and this one here is no exception from this rule! ;)

I wish the chainsaw could be heard a bit more throughout the song, though. But the part at 1:50 makes up for that. Great laughing and good use of the chainsaw there.
Awesome song, man!

DarKsidE555 responds:

Hm, I thought it was better not to hear the chainsaw that much in the song. I guess more than 3 times wouldn't be a benefit for the song. Anyways, glad you enjoyed man! Thanks for da reviewz!

[.:When I Come Back:.]

The melody is very nice, but it lacks some variation. Like Suspended-3rd-Chord said, maybe you should add some higher or deeper notes to the melody from time to time to get more variation into it.

At first I didn't like the "swirly" drums, but they kinda grew onto me during the song. Now I think they fit very well into the song, and they are quite different from what can be heard elsewhere.

[Move On*]

\m/

Once again the piano is great in here. Also the drum track is very nice and goes along well with the piano.

The melody is very relaxing and calm, I really like that. The track is very nice overall.

Maybe you should speed up the intro a little, because it takes quite long for the song to really start.

The flute that begins to play at 3:34 doesn't fit in there. It sometimes sounds very dissonant, but even without the dissonant tones the sound of the fluet doesn't fit to the rest of the instruments.

I think this track is quite nice, but it's too generic for me. I'm not that much into trance, so it has to be an really kick ass song for me to remember it.

You track is good, but not kick ass. As I've said, it's too generic and predictable for me. Also it lacks varations a bit. Some breaks from the main theme sure would be very nice and would help your song to get better and less gerneric.

Also don't be afraid to experiment with various settings in FL Studio during your songs. Sometimes one can find some really great effects this way.

aldlv responds:

ok... i will experiment more... =D
& I will try to make a kick ass song next time.. XD
thanx

"Oh my god what a fitting title for that song!"
That's exactly my thought after listening to this track.

I think you've done a good job here, creating something so crazy, yet so funny. I really can imagine you were still drugged while you made this. I feel a little dizzy right now after listening to the song ^^.

The various parts offer a very good beat and some tunes sound pretty familiar (you used some PacMan music in there, didn't you?).

However, the ending didn't fit in there. It was too big a break from the song... I can't tell exactly why I feel this way... maybe because the background music didn't offer that crazy/happy feeling like the rest of the song did.

MusicIsBliss responds:

thanks for the reveiw. i am remaking this song at the moment, which is why i requested the reveiws. I want to keep the ending because it took so much work to make gir's voice fit into an actual song, but i know what you mean.

but now that you mention that its not as happy, that makes alot of sense, im gonna try to put what i have in the rest, into the end of the song

thanks for the help
