Bafana's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

["Mysterious Land, Magickal People" & "Her Majestic, Urban Symphony"]

This is awesome. You did a great job on this!

Love the glitched vocal sample (not sure what it is saying though?) but it sounds great as an instrument to my ears. The guitar caught me off guard, in a pleasant surprise sort of way.

Sounds well mixed too, nothing is clashing. What plugins did you use?

TheVodouQueen responds:

Hey there, and thanks for your lovely comments. ♥ Always means a lot when someone takes time out to give a shout out. ^_^

There's preset plugins and such provided on BandLab Online--which is what I used for this. Been meaning to move away from it and try to utilize something more substantial, like their Cakewalk DAW, or Reaper or FL, but ATM still clinging onto the baby-steps / "training wheels", sadly. What I used was a mixture of freeware MIDI, samples and loops to make the song. ...It's kinda what I do for now, until I can get used to something way more useful (like trying to re-learn keyboard, etc).

But, I'm glad it came out sounding great. :)

At the start for some reason I was saying to myself "Zombie... Zombie... Zombie Nation"

This is pretty heavy, you probably still not sleeping.

I'm in process of reuploading all my old stuff, some of it slightly revamped. It's just sitting around doing nothing. Might as well put it back up here :D

DESHIEL responds:

You are right, I'm still awake. good luck with the reupload lol

[Mary Had A Little Bounce]

Mary loves it up the bum.

BeefourMusic responds:

Yolo!

[Coffee and Cannon Fire]

I'll take my coffee with sugar thanks. Hold the cannon fire.

LunyAlex responds:

Thanks for the comment!

Here from NGFB page.
I'm on a laptop atm so can't comment on mastering but it sounds good to me.
I also don't know the original so this IS the original for me.
Awaits guitar solo!

InYourDreams responds:

Hey thanks for the review! I think my ears where just tired. Now that I hear it again, it sounds somewhat better xD...
About the guitar solo... it's really fucking hard, man... I hope I can play it some day.

[Fire's Brilliance]

Great start! When you say orchestral do you mean to replace the guitar? In my head I hear this working well with just a violin and a cello but keeping the guitar the headlining act.

AshleyAlyse responds:

By orchestral, I meant with spiccato or staccato violins, violas, cellos, and brass... things like that. BUT that sounds like a rather nice idea too. I might have to try that out. :) Thanks for the review, Bafana!

[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!
