FKProductions's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[orchestra beat 1]

Mmmmhmmm NICE!

What Program do you use? It can't be FL9... Cubase? Or is it that Mac crap.... Logic :P

Either way, it's really nice, why the hell has someone rated this 0?

I like this kind of stuff.

My only issue that it doesn't loop that smoothly.

Favourited!

Face <(X_X)>

SalientAlien responds:

Thank you! I see what you mean about the looping... the timing's ok, it just sounds a little unnatural... not an easy fix without a rewrite. Oh well :P Still not bad for a title screen or credit screen.

I used Reaper with a couple of VSTi's... Edirol's orchestral and EZDrummer. Love the timpani patch ^_^

[Invasion Of The Emo Bots]

Nah...

This isn't traditional techno. This is just strange stuff.

IN MY OPINION.

Of course, I know that some people like this stuff. But no one I know does.

It's weird, doesn't make you want to dance, gets annoying and is repetitive. You could make this into a 20 second loop.

NOTE: I am not being ignorant, I understand that this itself is a style of music. I HAVE heard a lot of this kind of stuff, and therefore I'll rate it a 7.

But like I implied, I try to steer clear of this kind of stuff.

It's what you;d hear when you were high.

Face <(X_X)>

AliceMako responds:

Well that's still a rather high mark for something you don't like so thank you graciously :D

I'm going to come across as obstinate but i'm under the impression you'll forgive me anyway, it's tekno not techno. Kinda like how occultists make a big deal about magic and magick being two different things :3

And you're totally right, this piece isn't traditional by any stretch of the imagination, just my rendition of something i've heard on a number of occasions which the feedback i'm getting suggests i could do a hell of a lot better and obviously needs a lot more work which i didn't (and won't xP) bother with cus i like it in all it's horrific lameness.

Thanks again <3

[Waking Dreams]

I dunno...

Hmm... It sounds like what you'd hear when... I dunno...

When you were... hmmm...

High?

Just a wild guess >.<

Face <(X_X)>

P.S Imagine hearing this with Agnry Faic nodding away at you all of a sudden :3

AliceMako responds:

Having a flashback, in my case :3

Let's call it an educated guess shall we?

So you saw faic too? Good then it's not just me <3

[First Song.]

Since when did song names become whole sentences?

Don't worry about HellThrasher he's just some kind of emo/hater.

By the way, 5 year olds are quiet good at making Heavy Metal songs too. They scream really well!

Except they don't swear as much.

However, this song wasn't great. It was very monotonous and there were no progressions. The drum beat was overly repetitive. However the sounds you used were nice.

Think of it this way, if you're copy and pasting the same few patterns one after another about 20 times, then the song would have been better as a 30 second loop.

Hope this was helpful.

lostpenis responds:

Thanks for commenting.
This song is really basic and really simple and kind of boring but that was the point of it. We were going to spice it up a little but decided against it.
Thanks so much for your feed back!!!!

[Drum and music loop]

I use drum loops too...

I'm crap at them.... Luckily I have Grime to help me :D

Oh the greatness of being in a team ! XD

It's not drum n bass though.

But wait a sec Jass, of course people will know he's using FL Studio, most people do. Even professionals.

Acrimonious Experiments and Don't Be Sad by me have these drum loops in I think :)

Nice work.

Face <(X_X)>

P.S Like me, your strength is in melodies.

Cruzon63 responds:

thanks for the review.and I dont come with much on my fl studio :(

[Kid goes nuts because of call]

Ahahahahah

Very funny.... Your age doesn't make any difference cause at some parts it's really realistic :P However sometimes you stutter...

Also, you should of not used Nitwit XD

But, it was funny. The phone was TOO LOUD!

Face <(X_X)>

Cruzon63 responds:

Well...I am going to fix that :)

[Techno chamber XD]

I got your review, thanks :D

But, your songs sound really cool. Check out The Game by me cause I use eurogate or whatever it is, in that :3 However, do you keep using that silver saw or whatever it is in all your songs? Try some variety! :D

It's sometimes fun to use some of the short synths along with the Synth Strings.

I was also just wondering if you'd like to get involved with my team, FK Productions.

Check out our website, and you'll soon find it's all about creating a strong community that can help each other :) We also hope to gain a good reputation, so we're become like a free record label. However, we're making games, music, videos, movies, (We have been designing The Game and Nuclear Aftermath for about four years.) We hope to sell some of our stuff. I don't care what age you are either :)

Let me know if you're interested ;)

Face <(X_X)>

Cruzon63 responds:

Its not silver saw,its gold saw.and yes to be truthfull :)

[Grime - Project Nova]

Wow!

Sounds VERY ominous and unfriendly.

It flows really well and you use a variety of sounds.

I like the drops and the voices are cool.

More please! I can't wait to do the next collab with you!

Face.

dicool27 responds:

Thank's man :D
Really appreciate it.

[(DDD) The First Time]

OK, so as usual....

I'll start reviewing right from the moment it starts playing :)

Firstly, the low score might be because of the phasing at the start. But, I hasten to add that this is 3 people we're talking about >.<

Well, it's not improperly categorised, which sometimes annoys people... hmmm.... Maybe, after all those synths, that solo thing seems a little strange.

MAYBE people find it monotonous. It does go on for a while. Then again, it's not poorly executed, it is catchy, the beat is as usual "trippy"... Even if someone was feeling harsh the lowest they could realistically rate it is 3 :/ Gimme a second let me listen to it again...

Hmm, maybe it is because the synth seem to be unclear.

OK, forget this, I'm tired of being reasonable and dishonest.

This song is cool. It actually carries quite a level of emotion on it. Ah there.... at 2:30 people might dislike the sound effect. I dunno.

It would work in a really weird animation... maybe stick figures, or like a cool video of the same stick man in different places. Or it could even be good for some casual stick figure fighting PWNAGE :) Or a car journey.

Here's a cool idea: Camera starts looking from the pupil of a mans eye at the start and slowly zooms out so its about a meter away from him. With that, it starts orbiting the man as he begins to walk. He visits the most amazing places, they merge seamlessly into one strange stream of vivid life and excitement. People speak to him and he interacts with them, still walking. They seem to want to follow him, but cant keep up. And so he loses them to the next scene. The solo bit could be as night falls. Here, the man seems to falter and stumble, but can see dawn at the other side, so struggles, and slowly the smile returns to his Face. The new dawn awakens when the original pattern is reintroduced, and the man begins again, and in the echoes of the final bit, the first and only words are spoken:

"Man, I love my life."

Followed by some text after a pause: "You will eventually lose all those you care for. So treasure them while they live, and move on when they pass. Be at peace with the circle of life.

As I've said before, your music inspires me. But I am failing at learning Flash :/

Oh well, the point is I can't understand why people rated this so low, and can no one feel it getting inside of you?

Fair enough, it's not the most exciting song, not the most diverse and changing, but hey, this musics meant to be used in Flash Animations right? Well, as you can see above, I think it would be perfect.

Hope you found that helpful, because I need to give you some advice, try to leave out squeaky cheap sounding sound effects, and work on a stronger intro, and maybe change the song to accommodate for the guitar (I think) solo part.

Well, after listening to this song 4 times while I've been reviewing, each cycle seems to be getting shorter. The last one was the shortest 4:18 of my life.

Anyway, back to the point.

More please.

Face <(X_X)>

P.S. Do your work! Who knows how long it will be for people to wake up to your music and freely throw money at you? :D

Wow, only 787 characters until I won't be allowed to write anymore XD

Well come on, if no one else can be bothered explaining themselves for their appalling rating, then I might as well justify my "10" :D

Devereux responds:

it's a bass solo =P and yeah I'm aware it's a bit of a random injection, but as I said it started as a jazz piece that changed, the synth piano vamp is something new, usually it's just long block chords.
I think this is a bit less repetitive than some of my other songs, there's subtle (perhaps too subtle) changes as things progress but yes it's not too diverse. In hindsight I see what you mean by the squeak noise, it's a weird drum machine plug in that has some strange sounds in it, thought I'd give it a go.
I didn't have any flash ideas in my mind when I came up with this, I was wanting to write something quite upbeat and happy, and I've been in a writer's block for ages now, so I was pleased to finally put something together.
Thanks for reviewing, it's nice to have someone offering constructive feedback =)
