D-Chain's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Turn Out the Lights]

hmz

i know it isnt easy to get yourself a full length trance track.
but the amount of variety is minimal in this one, tho i like the concept behind it!

i might kinda give you some tips or advice on how you could improve this, but thats up to you ; -)

YakovlevArt responds:

tips are welcomed. I know the variety might be minimal, but to be honest variety wasn't my concern. I was more occupied with making this track melt together and sound good in uni-cent. Regardless thanks for the review =]

[Antiskill- Night Life]

good concept

but why did you choose the house section?
this sound like a mixture between trance and techno aka techtrance

YakovlevArt responds:

I chose House section because of the kick/buzz and the bpm. i mean i could try putting it in trance, but i feel it would be too heavy for whats there. In techno it would be to slow for whats there. If you like, you could call it, "TechHouse," haha.

I'm guessing you gave me an 8 because you didn't think of it as house music?

[The Island (Pt. 1) S-K MIX]

what

hmm
its a good concept but hasnt really got allot of housy things going on except in the middle part.

SethKorn responds:

Haha well house fit it best soo.. yeahh haha. Thanks for the review tho!

[DF -The Start- (WIP)]

Yes

this has potential,
tho do you hear it too? your melo/sounds are fading away :-)

try to use a FL compressor on your sounds.
what does compression if you set up the right compression:
simply holds the sound together.

Dragonarios responds:

Thanks so much, ive been struggling with the fading forever! This is the kind of help i need.

[Perfection (320kbps)]

lovely tune!

first of all,
this really reminds me of classic trance, the lovely vibes going on, and strong too its just amazing.
love the beginning, and i would love to know what synth/arp that is.

and second,
i wanna thank you for bringing back some memories! :3

a little tip:
i feel like there's allot of bass in the backing, perhaps you could add some high in your master EQing.

zenodio responds:

Thanks for the review.
I used the VST called Nexus, then i found some dirty, crunchy & trancy pluck sound and removed that crunchy effect so it sounded clear.

I also ysed some Sytrus and 3xOsc.

Well, yeah, it's possible. But i don't wanna screw around with this track anymore, it was just a little quickie i made to kill some time.

Thanks anyways :)

[dji electro vibe]

dis shit

so you go electro ay

DJinside responds:

yooo D-chain! man always happy to have a pro reviewing me ( without asking them to:P) i can remember another review of you saying you should go electro/house! and sometimes im in the mood for that!

really ty for still checking out my songs man!

[-_ Revolution_ -]

aye

i was forced to check on you again see how things where up,
and so far pretty good not?

seems like this is a fuse between a deep techno sound + breakstep/breakbeat elements pretty nice bro.
i must 5 this now

lackofintelligence responds:

Thanks for the review! :)

[From The Deep]

now what is this?

sounds like some dancey tune. please remove from the trance section.

codbarley responds:

actually smart ass, this is real trance. the beat is 4otf. also, I wasn't putting your track down. I said it was decent and i gave it an honest grade, go study up on some Armin van Burren, Dash Berlin, and maybe a little bit of Ferry Corsten before you call a track trance.

[/Dreaming Wave\]

I know

this is a WiP.. but still so far everything seems pretty good, tho im missing a bass ;)
so dont blaim the 8 i gave xD
please i would love to hear more!

Dragonarios responds:

Thanks, producing is not going very easy lately due to lack of time. But ill do my best.
Also, im not entirely sure how to inplement a bass here and make it sound good. But ill look into it when I have time.
