Tennon's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[SaZyK - Heaven [Dubstep]]

It was a long time since I reviewed your work, so lemme do it now...
Nice melody first, I had to drop that
There are definitely stuff that you can improve. I was listening it with shitty headphones cuz the good one is under repair. Hence I won’t be commenting on the mixing
Pros:
- Good melody, really melodic and heavenly
- Heavy drop
- Nice song structure
Cons:
- Do not overuse compression. Sometimes you have to use distortion as a way of mastering.
- The piano section is a bit too distorted, it should be a bit less loud.
- The sidechain isn’t obvious enough. It should really make your drums punchy.
- My biggest complaint is there are mediant minor chords followed immediately by tonic major chords. It sounds a bit off. The mediant minor chords sounds best followed by submediant chords (aka minor tonic) or supertonic major chords (aka dorian chords). My bad if this is too subjective but I’ll just throw it here.

Lastly, this has nothing to do with the score, I feel like this isn’t really riddim cuz the snares in the drop aren’t layered with kicks.

SaZyK responds:

Yes, thank you very much, I love knowing that you liked it and receiving your advice helps me a lot, I hope to improve in the field of mixing 7u7

[SAIKO (SHORT MYX)]

I need to take a break

[Code-y]

Au5 Freefall sample pack!
But I would love to hear more of your own sounds!

Lubloom responds:

Yeah I love that pack, mostly for the drum loop from Emergence because it has the nicest cymbal pattern. I used 4 brief samples from emergence and the rest are my own

[Au5 - Moonland (Derpcat Remix)]

As an AU5 fan, I know Moonland and Return to Moonland very well. Your intro reminds me of Return to Moonland...
Epic second drop, I love it!

[Not Alone]

Nice house, love the use of triplets! Also great vocal chops!
I would’ve preferred a drop somewhere

Lubloom responds:

Thanks! I've never really used triplets before. That vocal chop was a complete accident too, made it out of the main vocal. I would have put a drop in but I thought it was best without one for this song

[-Lightspeed-]

Love the futuristic sounds
