Sleepycoaster's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Circles]

Nice arrangement. It sounds sad but pleasantly natural.
Sorry man, I didn't see the theme you gave in the tune. But not to say others won't.

SuperShadowIV responds:

I still really appreciate your feedback, thank you. <3

[A Bit of Madness]

The rhythm and bounce of the tune is there, especially at thirty seconds in. The chord progression contributes to the mood and the whole thing sounds consistent and exciting. But the treble sounds a bit harsh to me, and the grinding of inharmonious square waves put me off a little rather than contribute to the maddening tone.

mrcoolisimo responds:

That could be a problem with how i design my instruments that i could work on... thanks for the input

[Last Minute Samba]

Not repetitive, and full of sound throughout.

piggemz responds:

such a nice praise, i thank yeh

[no chance]

Your guitar sounds a bit robotic to me. I suggest some sliding/vibrato. Although if you used a VST then never mind. It's a cool song.

jambrother2 responds:

no the guitar's all real, i DI'd it so its running through a software thing aaand iv just realised half the vocals are too quiet, I'm gonna have to fix that, thank for the review!

[Ero]

This is so uplifting! It may have some melody awkwardness such as at 0:36, but the instrumentation and mastering are, at least to me, impeccable. Nice use of the piano. You have another fan.

Aviru responds:

Thanks!

[Wandering Samurai]

This is either a pretty nice samurai piece or a nice little dance sample, but I don't think it can be both. The bass doesn't fit the samurai theme. The drum beat is pleasing to hear, although the fills are a bit drawn out.
It's fresh, though. It's nice to hear a unique piece every once in a while, especially one that modernizes nonwestern music.

swordsofe responds:

This is kind of what happens when you take two styles then divide by zero to make cool music that no one has tried before. Thanks for checking it out!

[Pitbulljones- Throwback]

I think this is fantastic. The sample choice and panning incorporate the psychedelia. I like the sample used for the ambient melody at :11, even though I think the last two notes of the 9-note melody are somewhat unnecessary and distracting. But that doesn't ruin the ambiance at all. I like the length and structure, and the drums in the second half are a great touch. I like the variety. The recycling of the melodies and the abrupt ending don't tarnish the unique mood of this peace too much; it's quite a collage of pleasant sounds. Bravo.

pitbulljones responds:

Thank you for the review AQ. Always glad that people like my music. I'll take note of those 2 notes, see if I can change them up. Some great points made.

Peace and Hugs,

Pitbulljones

[doom metal sample]

Nice variety. But where's the bass? Some of the cymbals don't fit too. That aside, this seems like a nice progressive metal sample.

HighBallers responds:

lol....my bass is GONE. yes, i agree need better drum kit but i just use this one for fun.

[Step Out Into The Sun]

This is a great (and somewhat nostalgic in my case) ambient track. The intro set the relaxed scene, commanding with a whisper to feel at home. The bass sounds great. The drums are well-detailed and grab attention--However, that's a bit of a problem. I can't really take my mind off that snare drum from :27 to 1:25. The use of sliding synth after this part continues completing the ambient picture and is a great idea in my humble opinion. At 1:30 the percussion is nice but it might be a bit loud. Nice sound blending at 1:54.
Overall an ambient piece that sets a great mood.

pitbulljones responds:

Thank you very much AC for the review. I'm glad you got a nostalgia trip from this track, I've been going on an 80's synth mission of late with some mixed results. My intention was to have the drums quite forward in the mix but I do appreciate that they may be too loud for some. If you have time please have a listen to some of my other tracks and let me know what you think, indeed, if you have any tracks you'd like me to review send me a PM. Thanks again for the review.

Peace and hugs,

Pitbulljones

[Centaurs and Such]

The jazzy intro of this tune makes for an excellent and fresh hook, graced well with the jazzy drums and fresh bassline a little later. Some parts of the piano melody line are smooth and well-felt, although I think there are some unnecessary notes. The transition into the drop turns the song on its head in a delightfully disorientating way that made me shiver. The saw in the middle is uniquely psychedelic, although I'm no expert in dubstep specifically. I think the second part of the saw part where the slayer guitar comes in isn't necessary, it just makes me confused as to what I should be listening to. The addition of the intro to the end makes this seem like a rather simple song.
Good for easy listening.

Cimba responds:

Thank you so much for the compliments. This was quite helpful!
