"Very fun piece, loved listening."

submission: Green, piano

I Really, really dont like the all the synth stuff that comes in the middle. It should be an acoustic bass and guitars or horns instead. It almost ruins it, but the first part is so great I'll just review that. I think you could use some help on your drum kits, and by help I mean keep trying, but that is the best piano I've heard on any newgrounds piece to date. Great Job. 5/5, 10/10. Favorited.

"Generic rock done very memorably!"

submission: TSH - A Liar Between The Bars

date: January 7, 2008

I noticed a few random timing issues or parts that I didn't feel fit, but since you "cranked this out on a saturday night" it's really not important.
This is pretty much the unpolished equivalent of the punk/alternative rock you find popular these days. It's catchy and fun. And I have a story for you...
When the song started I envisioned a voice singing and I wished you had added a vocal track, just then your voice came in and it sounded exactly like I had heard. It was whack. Good track, 10/10, 5/5.

"The definition of summer mellowness in song format"

submission: TSH - Little White Truths

First criticism= This needs a bit of work. The drum kit is just ruining it for me for most of the time. I would suggest a much more laid back beat, especially when the crash cymbal comes into play about half way through the track. When the song opens up, the timing is a little arrhythmic, which is not at all what this kind of music needs. Something, quiet, simple, and in the pocket would suit the rest of the song much better, in my opinion. Just putting the hi hat on the downbeat with kicks on 2 and 4 would do nicely I think with a switch to ride with subtle accents towards the middle and end.

The Good= Wow. This really captures that scene in the movie and a certain lazy awkward spirit that serves as a candence for much of my life. I love this track. The beginning with the train car-esque bumping all the way through, it's fantastic. 5/5. I just watched the movie Juno with my girlfriend, and this would, seriously, be at home on the track for that movie.
In conclusion, with that drumkit fixed you might just have created my favorite audio submission.

"This shows no characteristics of a song."

submission: Phantom Planet

date: January 5, 2008

Had you labeled this a loop, I would have given you a 3/5 for composing a piece that really does sound like a terrestrial exploration theme. However, as a song, it is about the equivalent of me hitting (relatively) random notes on my keyboard for nearly 3 minutes and then posting it. Try to show more depth by adding more than one sound, but more importantly, it needs to follow some semblance of a pattern. There is no distinguishable melody or chorus line. Any series of notes which is repeated appears to be done by pure accident. It DOES show potential however, and with a track similiar to this, with a little more planning before hand, and a drum beat behind it, you could write a nice techno piece.

Score: 10

"The ballad of a new, more emotional, hood."

submission: This World

date: January 4, 2008

Loving the melody, I agree with DjMateius, this makes me want to play my piano. I also think the beat could use a tad bit of tweaking. It's not bad by any means, but I think it could be better, and if, if, you managed to achieve that unparalleled level of musical complexity, you would surely trascend to NewGrounds Royalty, just like Dre did back in the 90's. Maybe you didnt hear about it...

Score: 7

"A nice collection of metal power riffs."

submission: Groovlers

date: January 4, 2008

This is a nice piece of work. I think there are a few timing issues in the 30's secounds portion between the drums and guitars, or possibly just a strong reverb. In either case it was confusing. As I whole I liked it. To make a more appealing song for the masses, I would suggest adding lower/softer/ less busy key parts between the sections you have now for a more verse/chorus kind of feel.

Score: 10

"Turns everyday tasks to ardorous feats of glory!"

submission: Freedom is a step away

date: January 4, 2008

I performed some routine work on my computer (i.e. installing updates, converting files, etc.) while listening to this song and found myself filled with passion concerning mundane tasks which I could not explain! I would recommend listening to this when you take out the garbage, as you may find yourself leading an unstoppable rebel force towards certain death against an evil orc warlord opressor in the process! Kudos, Bravo, 10 stars.
