Bafana's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[where do we go from here?]

I checked this out from the FB page.

Loving that guitar, I like the beat too. Glad you didn't go 4 on the floor.

Might be worth looking for a vocalist to collaborate with?

johnfn responds:

I've been thinking about a vocalist for a while now. There are a lot of decisions and things to think about there though... Thanks for your time!

[Downfall]

I'm feeling some earlier daft punk vibes here. Pretty funky with that piano and bass duet. Love that electro bassline! It fed into the track with ease.

I wonder if its worth while looking to add some vocals to this.

My only problem is the mastering. I feel aspects could be clearer as some frequencies clash.

Voltus responds:

I fixed that mastering thing by now. I think it sounds a lot better!

[Slidey WIP]

I get the sound you were going for here but to be totally honest that main melody synth was really annoying me.

Can't really comment on anything else because its not finished. Compression and EQ the drums, fatten up that bassline, add a layer and see where the song takes you next...

[Next Level - Dope Arcade]

Anyone who drops that 303'esque synth gets all my 5s... I'm all for artists not being pigeonholed into one sub genre too!

I hardly ever login to NG anymore... Glad I did. This is great. My only criticism is subjective so not sure whether its worth mentioning but I think the mastering needs some tweaking and I'd like to hear a deeper bass synth to accompany the kick too.

RyeGuyHead responds:

I completely agree! Unfortunately, I wrote this song in Reason and no longer have that program on my computer. Mastering the mp3 only proved somewhat fruitful, but I should still probably be able to find the right frequency to boost the bass in that synth during the chorus...

Glad you liked it :D

[Radioactive (Cover)]

Everything about this is just right! I think the mood you've set in this cover compliments the subject matter so much better than the original. As always, I love when you harmonize yourself, chills. All the best :D

VGSongbird responds:

You're my favorite :3

[Frozen Response]

I almost just dropped a 2 and bailed, but I read the description that said guitar solo... glad I stuck around 3:30 onward is great. I've always thought EDM needs to embrace the guitar more.

[EnV - Vee]

Oooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sometimes I get a good feeling, yeah!

Envy.I.Am? :P
