BuggMusic's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Longest road (Zinity rmx)]

Let me say firstly, good job on making it unique to the deadmau5 remix. I love that remix, but it seems like everyone else who has a go at this song falls into the trap of pretty much covering his version, you really explored your own style and so nice work ;)

The vocals sound good, not too muddy and they fit into the mix very nicely. The drums are tight and punchy, the pluck is good and the chord progression sounds nice. Just one point to make, don't be afraid to really let loose your style and add some crazy melodies or arps that are completely different to the original song, I always make sure I do this when remixing so that it sounds unique.

Great work here buddy, not much to complain about. I hate to do this, but I was wondering if you could tell me where I could find the acapella, I remember looking for it a while a go but found nothing and I would really like to have a go at this!

Peace, ;)

Zinitymusic responds:

Thank you very much! :-)
i found the accapella on youtube, but honestly i will suggest that you watch out where you upload your remix , if you're going to make one :-)
i made this remix, & posted it on youtube... they took it down & told me "next time you upload a remix without giving permission, you will have to pay."

So watch out my friend!
- Peace!

Sounds pretty good! I would personally suggest adding a bit more percussion, and some hihat patterns with heaps of swing to help the drums drive with the bass. Otherwise this sounds pretty sweet, I like those chopped vocals that come in at about 00:47 :)

Valtanen responds:

Thanks. This was my first attempt at house music so thanks for telling me that this needs to you some more drums.

Update may be coming soon! :)

EDIT: Updated.

[Sonik&Recollect Prismatic]

Awesome work, sounds very clear which is always nice to hear here. The synths are chosen well, very mellow and chill. I don't know if your familiar with Shingo Nakamura, one of my favourite ProgHouse producers. He uses piano a lot, sounded a lot like him, not to say you stole it or anything it sounds great! Anyway, good luck with the release!

DreamEater responds:

Thanks you very much Bugg! I'm very familiar with Shingo & Silk Music, and he was a very big inspiration to me while writing this one; so I'm way stoked that you got that from it ;]. I really appreciate the positive feedback bro, being compared to Shingo himself is a huge honor <3

Thanks again for the kind words bro, you rock :D

[Sea of blue roses]

Wow, I love finding gems like this. The House portal is usually bloated with generic David Guetta stuff, but this is gold. Very unique style, awesome work man!

The synths sound great, the reverb works well. The melodies are rich and lively which I always love. The only thing I could suggest (actually, more of a request), you should add more to the drum section, it sounds good but it gets drowned out a bit by the other parts. Mega props man, this is awesome.

[Adventua (orchestral)]

This is incredible, it really does paint a picture! It reminds me of some of the new Zelda games, the music of which I absolutely love as it really tells a story just like this piece. Amazing work!

DanJohansen responds:

Zelda has a lot of great music, agree with you there man.
Glad you appreciate my tune man, means a lot!
Thanks!

I gotta be honest, I wasn't really feeling it at the start. The piano was a bit harsh and the chords sounded a bit weird to me. But then it really started to pick up, and then at 1:05 when the pluck came in, wow, what a change up. The pitch wobbles on it are awesome, and overall it just gives the whole song a lot more flavor. Followed by a nice little piano outro, great work! You really did a great job on this, so congratulations!

15thDimension responds:

Awesome, thanks for leaving a review!

[Detious - Velvet (prev)]

The absolute best approach to making music, and the same one that I use. Make music that YOU love, not what you think other people will like. Great job, keep it up!

DetiousMusic responds:

Thanks man, hopefully this song will become a nice tune later on. (:

[TimmY - Elyda(WiP)]

Sounds awesome, super funky. Is this low quality? Or is it just my speakers? Either way, still sounds great, good job!

Cahzmana responds:

hey thanks a bunch!
and yes this is lower quality..
but it could be your speakers too.

[D "Dee"]

Awesome, super funky. I don't often like Tech House or whatever you call it, but this is spot on. Good work!

[Nexus]

Nice work. Sounds a lot like Turn It Down by Kaskade, minus the vocals. It seems a bit dancy for House, but I still like it!

sinclayr responds:

it's a bit more close to trance than house, yeah. but hey, as long as you like it :)
