MegaSphere's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Shirobon - Fox]

Chiptune trance music executed so gracefully. One of your best works. ♥️♥️♥️

[Awesome Start]

Pure fire. Looking forward to hearing more from ya.

[long goodbyes]

I love coming back to this <3

[Chopstick (Mado Kara Mieru) [CrystaluxX Remake]]

You seem to struggle at getting the bass to follow along with the melody. Could it perhaps be your speakers/headphones not outputting frequencies that low? If so, definitely consider upgrading them so you can hear what you're doing when making music.

CrystaluxX responds:

The track is wanted like this. Its a remake/remix of a track with similiar bass structure and sound and I made the bass extra strong in this one.

[Sentinel]

You got hella scammed.

Snakewine responds:

It's too bad that my song had DQed at unexpected reasons ;-;
Hope I can pass at the next competition.

+Your songs are awesome, I'm bringing your songs in my iPod every day :D Keep it up please!

[LADLX - EVE]

Beat is really good, and vocals are super clean and mixed excellently.
Unfortunately your rapping is really monotonous and you sound really bored while rapping. There's no emotion at all. You're definitely not shit, but with a bit more effort you're gunna be absolute fire. I'm gunna follow, I wanna keep my eye on you.

[(fixed kick) MegaSphere - Solarize [Crys Remix]]

Heya.
With Solarize's melody being in A# minor, you're having issues the elements you brought in being off key including the kick drum.

Other than that, the arrangement and ideas for the drops are pretty good!

CrystaluxX responds:

Thank you! I heard the track again and i fixed the kick.

[Energy of Asia]

This is seriously some really impressive stuff, great job! Hardstyle ain't the easiest genre to produce and you nailed it!

ItsAlmagestFR responds:

Thank You so much! Energy of Asia is actually the hardest track i've ever make so far. i takes almost 1 year to perfecting this track. and that is also the reason why this track is not on the Official Album of Asian Games 2018

[Amber]

This is most definitely Eurobeat, good job! Eurobeat is really difficult to create so I applaud that.

The eurobeat brass is a bit weird in the stereo field, is it panned to the right or is that chorus messing it up? (Nice hook though).

The bass could be louder.

The guitar at 01:39 was a little disappointing. Sounds fine in the first 8 measures, and in the later 8 measures... it just repeats itself? I was hoping for something more exciting. Oh well.

The arrangement did feel a bit repetitive with the lack of breakdowns and the same beat going on with barely any variety.

Good job on this. Keep working on Eurobeat

[Forever Ago (chillstep)]

Try using a better sounding piano, FL Key's isn't known for sounding that great. 4Front Piano Module is a great free one. I'd also filter the delay and more add reverb to it.

The mixdown isn't too great. Don't put so much sidechaining onto the supersaw chords. You need to use better sounding drums, try making them louder too along with the bass. The bass also needs a separate sub as I hear the sub disappearing with all the filtering going on with it.

I'd suggest using more effects too, especially during the build ups.

However, the sound design itself is pretty alright when it comes to the bass and the chords. The arrangement is good too. Keep it up!

5TanLey responds:

these aren't fl keys, and I kinda like the way the piano sounds

otherwise fair points, thanks for the tips :)
