D-Chain's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Out of Hibernation Demo]

Well

if i may be very honest with you, this is not typically house...
or prog-house

i can hear that your start is a bit housy until it reaches 0.16 sec's
and im missing a bassline that leads under your synth's :)
maybe thats the solution!

[Hes A Pirate-Tiesto(xTc Remix)]

Tiesto listener?

Yet i didnt know you'd listen to tiesto [once? - quit some time?]

Anyways, dont listen to his creations from nowadays.. they suck big time :)
Tiesto was on fire from the late 90's till maybe mid 2005..
he's peaked #2 on the worlds best dj's/producers today.. but just isnt worth it anymore..
Even if he makes house things[kinda].. he has become old and need to retire :)

too bad i was too young to visit one of his great concerts back in the years..
a real shame, but lucky me got almost all of his dvd's TILL 2005 :)

[xTc - It's a Dream]

=] =]

You've gotten my smile :)
This is rly great and i can enjoy every sound and instrument.
I have gotten 1 more tip to give you

Tip: insert a 'Multiband Compressor' into you mixer - MASTER
Ill PM you about that ;)

5/5 - 9/10 ;)

DJ-xTc responds:

i think i did or maybe i just put in the eq =P.
I could use help with the multi band comp. simply because i dont know how to use it at all =(
Thx for the review

[Prog House Demo]

'...'

Hi there xtc :)
i see you managed to come up with skill, thats good!
and i clearly hear its your own.
BUT if your making a chord and want to sound it pure and good
youll prolly need to build these chords like this:

1. bassline [just your own made]
2. copy that line and paste above [replace false notes]
3. do the same again till you have the sound you want.

and im sure if you use the 'key' changer next to the main folume bar it would turn you up :)

Hope it helps a bit eventho my english lags.. :P

-> No score YET, just a 9 with my review :)

DJ-xTc responds:

i did that at first but experimented to me all the chords sound in sync but its just the first starting chord that sounds like Ugly xD.

Thx for the Review

[Skrypto- (WIP)]

"..."

Simply, catchy and still relaxing without 'boring me' :)
Hot!

5/5 - 10/10
-Tim

[.iI_Sosei_Ii. Rmx]

"..."

I see your guit on the move here :P
everything is good about it except the mastering, thus it needs mastering.

try some EQ stuff out.. just play a bit with it and find your own EQ settings :)
Maybe some compression too?? would pump your kick in combi with the EQ settings and get things in line.

the overall: over-bassed :P

[hope this is a usefull review to you]

5/5 - 8/10 ;)
-Tim

DJ-xTc responds:

Yes, it was.
I played around with the EQ and compression and it sounds a bit clearer and crisper. Later After school ( because I have to finish a paper D: ) ill play with it more.

Thx for the review

'..'

Well the idea is good till 1:22
but then you'd brought your rest back into it like, BAM here's the rest :P
I shouldn't do it like that.

Anyways you said in your comments that it would be a slow trance song,
by my guess it has a 138 BPM wich is pretty fast :P

Nice bass - melo and kick.

4/5 - 8/10
-Tim

[[SP] ~ Twice In A Blue Moon]

Nice

But we rather call FC, Ferry kontkorst =]

5/5 - 10/10
-Tim

[[T] Listen To Your Heart]

'..'

4/5 - 9/10
