Dj-Zexus's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[-Aef- End The Silence WIP]

Enjoyable. :3

Structure and idea were both great.

But I feel as if the sounds you used were to... defaulty.
Definetly need a new Kick and Snare.
The clap is okay.

I do believe the song itself was great, though. c:
The melodies and patterns were awesome.

Just pick out some new Drum samples and it'll improve a lot.

Keep up the good work.
8/10 4/5

AetherFlaer responds:

Thanks alot for the tips. Where is a good place to get good drum samples?

[Tenshi Remake WIP]

You tease...

Man... I can never get enough of your stuff.
I always catch myself checking back for more.
It's all so beautiful.
I don't think I've ever been dissapointed with any of your tracks. [:

Preview sounds nice, bro.
Top-notch, professional work as usual.
keep at it. c:

-Zexus

SASKID responds:

Sorry for late reply ._.

I'm glad you can't get enough, i like building a fan base ;D haha.

Thanks very much, i think it sounds pretty nice too. Needs improved and finished obviously :) thats future though.

Thanks for the review! :D

[!~Puzzle~!]

Very good.

Beautifully made.
an absolutly great peice.
Enjoyed it quite a bit. ;3

I think you need just a bit more emphasis on the drums.
Maybe change up the patterns a bit here and there.
I know you are trying to go for the mellow feel and all...
but I think the song would improve a lot. [:

Good work, man.
Keep it up.
9/10 4/5

-Zexus

TheElementalProdigy responds:

Thank You.
i'm not quite sure what kind of patterns to change on the drums...
i can see what you mean though. I will try to alternate the beats next time.
Once again, thanks for the review :D

[DJ T3chnic - Once Again]

Very well-made.

The production was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
You are a ver ver skilled producer.
All the sounds were perfect...
level were perfect...
melody was perfect..

it's just... Just... so generic, ya'know?
Like I've heard so many dance tracks with the same exact elements.
4x4 kick beat, bells, off-beat bass.

It was great but your hardstyle is much more original, man.
keep up the good work. :]

-Zexus

DJT3chnic responds:

Thanks man =)

[Fire in the Sky (Hardstyle)]

Wonderful

Good to hear some good, genuine hardstyle on the site. :3
Hardstyle on NG is usually a huge let-down.
Your's, however, is beautiful. ;]

The Melody was gorgeous,
the hard-noises were great, &
the Kick was beast.

My only concern would be that each "section" seems to just happen... ya'know?
Like, the transitions wern't very smooth.
you sort of just Went from one section the the next.

It's still better than I could do... so, for that, I give you a 5. C:
9/10 5/5

-=Dj-Zexus

DJT3chnic responds:

Thanks man, I really appreciate the feedback =), I'll work on those transitions. This is only my 4th attempt at hardstyle so, Hopefully it'll get better hehe.

[Fucking with Hardstyle | SN]

Whoahoho...

This was damn sexy... no joke.
Whenever I see Hardstyle on NG I'm always like "Pshh, this is going to suck."
But this track was amazing. [:

The Kick is top-notch and the intro screech was beautiful.
It is awfully short, though. HS tracks are usually 4-5 minutes long.

I wish people on NG produced HS as well as you, that would it a much better place.

Thank you so much for this. :3

Faved.

SessileNomad responds:

if i were more into producing hardstyle i would probably spend the time to make my tracks a good dj friendly length, usually hardstyle is sort of just a "LOOK WHAT I CAN DO!" type of thing for me

glad you like it though xD

[xKore - Eden (Snapple Remix)]

Wonderful

Damn good. [:
You sure did this song justice.
I enjoyed the original, but I do have to say, this was amazing.
I think the calm, trancey Dubstep feel worked great.

5/5 10/10

-=Dj-Zexus

dietsnapple135 responds:

Thanks :D. xKore's stuff obviously has so much attention to detail in it, I have to try to give it as much justice as possible. Thanks for the review :D!

[[Hardstyle] Cry For Freed]

amazing but short

that kick is sexy :]
I can't get a kick to sound nearly as good as that >.<

the Melody is really nice too...

its good to see some good Hardstyle on the site...
keep it up and keep me posted ;P

9/10 5/5

-=Zexus

btw... could you review my track "Plasma"
you know, if you ever have the time...
i remember getting a review from you a while back that helped a lot :3

VelociD responds:

I will.
Probably on friday.

Thx for your positive review.

[[T] Runaway RMX]

haha me likey :3

it as a really great remix!!!
(although you have to admit nothing can beat the original xP)

haha but yeah it had great sounds, great percs, everything :]
the crashes were a bit loud and the song sounded a bit muddy in places but other than that it was great n_n

also could you review one of my tracks... i think someone has been bombing them and i wanna know what to fix ^^

5/5
9/10

-=Dj-Zexus

Therm0 responds:

Well hey, thanks for the review. I appreciate the compliments ;)
Yeah I know it sounded pretty muddy in places, but after 6:30 of doing this it was REALLY REALLY hard to keep going. I'll drop you a review sometime, k? :)
Thanks for the generous score dude.

[-={DJ-PHX]=- Ending Days [Hs]]

nice :]

I really loved the kick...
it was super punchey and powerful :]

The vocal with the Chorus build was a very nice touch
the main melody is AWESOME!
i wish i could come up with a main melody like that >.<

very very nice.... my only concern would have to be the intro melody... it seemed to be lacking something... maybe change the key to a higher one?

5/5
9/10

-=Dj-Zexus

unrealdark responds:

Intro is kind of empty yeah. I had to make some fill-ins, but it's Dj-friendy now I suppose. But I think I'll leave it this way. Rather than mixing it a fair bit, this is good to my ears.
