MRM3's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Kraken of the sea (Mewo's dubstep remix)]

LOL I think I used the same sample in my song Synth1!
Idk what you're doing uploading this as your first track, cause it's way better than mine :p

MewoDaCatboy responds:

Heyy! It's not my first music actually, it's the third one i made on LMMS, the others are on Youtube!

Fun fact! Pixel Pulsar was released before this one!

[Stargazer]

Hey Gougou!
Long time no see :v
Hoping you are well, and I'd love to catch up.
Despite you saying this was "quickly released" This is really nice!
I love the atmosphere, it's so... peaceful and fulfilling <3
My best

Gougou responds:

Thanks for the comment! I am doing well, just not into making music that much anymore.

[Overheating Processor]

I'm not sure how long you've been making music on LMMS, but this is solid.
The buildup from 00:07-00:26 was really hype, and then the "drop" of sorts was underwhelming, I'm not sure what you were going for there, but I'd tone down the build up a bit, as it felt like we were about to get brutalized and then the song just kept on going lmao. Same with 1:50. It's cool, and transitions are always fun, and I'm not saying it's bad. I am just trying to give actual feedback instead of saying "nice track" with 4 stars lol. I'd say you want the change to be proportional to the buildup, for the most part. So a big 8-bar buildup with risers, kick build, etc sets up the expectation of a really big change. All in all, no major complaints! A bit more mixing/mastering would polish this up nicely, but that comes with lots and lots time.
I like it! and keep up the good work m8 :)

MewoDaCatboy responds:

Thanks for that constructive review, I think i'm gonna make a second version later!

[Windows XP Theme (Velkommen) remix]

Ah yes
The dry punchy drum mixing on LMMS
Nicely done :)

MewoDaCatboy responds:

Thanks comrade^^

[Fire In The Hole!]

Ah, remind me to make a really heavy metal track for lobotomy levels :p
Just using what sounds like mostly stock LMMS sounds, you've done well!
good luck getting whitelisted by Rob :o

MewoDaCatboy responds:

I got whitelisted btw!! Also, my musics really improved since i started using vsts like Serum (my bbg), you should check out my windows xp remix, it's my best music in my opinion

[~I LIKE ELECTRO~(original mix) by wasterklame]

What do you use as a DAW?
I think I first heard your stuff when you started uploading, and... I'll just say that you've improved t o n s!
Whenever I listen to your more recent uploads, I am surprised at how good the mixing and sound design is. You seem to have found your groove, and you're rockin' that shit man.
No major complaints, this is 🔥 and I could deffs see it in a GMD level!
Deffs givin some sort of Acid Notation vibes here
Idk what the silence is at the end, if it's intentional, or you just let one of your tracks run for an extra 30 seconds, but that's an easy fix

Keep it up Oko :)

okogd responds:

Hello, I'm using fl studio now, and I started with fl studio mobile. And the 30 seconds at the end, it's because of the incorrect rendering setting.

[Sufferer]

Yo that porta lead is wild man
Clean mixing, simple overall design.
Bouncy track, well done, no major complaints!
The only thing I might have as a negative is that it is almost a bit repetitive at times, but I think that's also kinda built into the genre, and most likely what you were going for.
Whenever I review, I like to start with 5 stars, and then take away points for things that are off.
You get full 5 ^^
Nice track man :)

xxUltimaWeapon responds:

Thanks for the kind review man. I appreciate you taking the time and am glad you enjoyed!

[hold up one second, instagram is loading]

no i clicked on it because it was the most recently published audio.
lol not sure this is "ambient" it's kinda weird and the piano sounds like ass but that's probably what you were going for and it works for some reason lmfao. nice job

ToastyBois responds:

Lol thanks my dude

[Screaming With No Face]

Ok so. First of all... You pulled in so many sounds, used so many effects, modulations, gyrations, bippitybopboopers and stuff. And it doesn't sound like shit... so big props to you.
Let me start with what I love about this track.
The atmosphere you have going is a consistent dark one, you go from ominous to that filthy bass.. Ew... I love it.
Everything jives so wonderfully!
The "chord progression" in the breaks are really well done, and the doubletime bit you have in there still fits in the track well.
That last drop transition is absolutely delicious!!! I had to replay it like 9 times lol hope you're proud of that one.
All that being said... The mixing/mastering on this track kind of lets it down. It's not it bad, per say, but a better master on this track would take it from "almost full stars" to 100/10
Maybe you fully intended every single second to sound the way it does, in which case let me know.
But if you want to hear my thoughts: here they are.
It's a bit muddy at times, the different tracks/instruments could be leveled better, and the mixing on the drums is probably the worst part of the track.
Muddy mixes can be cleaned up nicely by reducing frequency overlap as much as possible.
Any sounds that are heavy in any frequency will fight to drown each other out. i.e.
Your bass and kick drum both have low frequencies, and will try to cancel each other out.
Your choir/pads have too much mid in them, and will try to cancel out etc.
a tiny bit of sidechain on the instruments to make your drums pop a little bit more would be nice all around the board.

That was a lot of words lol.
Well done! Gave this one a fav (:
4.5/5 - 9/10.
Looking forward to hearing more from you in the future!
