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 :)

[~K4P~ 25 - Why is it so hard?]

This cant rly be

Its always hard, hard to find yourself, to find another way, push yourself through a wall of emotions and even stand up after you'd fall from the reach.

these words i'd just spoke are the words your telling me with this piano piece
it has my attention,
the face behind my mask can no longer smile but breaks and cries.
Very well done! your blessed by my soul.

5/5 - 10/10
-Tim

Musical-Memoirs responds:

anyone can see a different meaning in music
but the words you took out from it are good ones, quite alike the ones for me

tried to make this piece longer, but every time it looses its meaning when it gets longer
im happy to see that there are ones who cares about the feelings in a song
even if its only one other then me, it makes it totally worth making for me

thanks for your blessing
~K4P~

[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
-Tim

-> 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

[-Horizon-]

'..'

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
