ShockblastDeluxe's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Nefertiti]

Nice job! The way it was put together actually made it enjoyable! XD

The growls felt a little lonely during the drop, though. They might've needed a pad behind them or something.

[(2017) Demo Reel #1 - Scenes]

Nice stuff! Even the crying was a bit convincing! Makes me want to do something like this!

JessieYun responds:

Hey ShockBlastDeluxe,
Thanks a lot for the comment! Glad you liked it!

[The Last Defense - Jessie Yun [NGUAC]]

Nice stuff. I can see why you got to move on when I didn't... :P

JessieYun responds:

Hey ShockblastDeluxe,
Thanks for the comment.
Nah, it's fine. There's always next time. For me, I never broke the record of making it into the final round.

[EEK! + Lockyn - Glacier Galaxy]

I've come to notice that the only dubstep growls ever heard in your songs are in collabs. Maybe one of these days, you could get really creative with Sytrus and create some sort of growl bass (or do it the easier way with Harmor or Serum...). That seems like a cool idea.

Btw, nice job, you two.

Lockyn responds:

Sytrus is great for basses, I just never learned how to properly do it. It hasn't really been my main focus when producing, I like the long active melodies.

[Aztech + Lockyn: Soulwind]

You know, whenever you collaborate with someone, it's hard to tell who did what in it.

Nice song, btw.

Lockyn responds:

This one was arranged by me, drums/lots of synths/fx/lots of melodies were me. The string-like lead at the drop/chorus, the flute synth, the syncopated low-mid plucky synth in the second drop, and the breakdown section was Aztech.

[Azure (Original Mix)]

Man, I don't even know how you manage to consistently make tracks >5 minutes long! I can harrdly make it to 4 minutes without making it sound stupid.

Great song, btw. Don't know why I've been able to avoid this one for so long.

[EXTRA TIDBIT] It's hard to create even ONE synth that reflects your style without using Sytrus (or any other form of FL plugin).

Lockyn responds:

Hey, glad you enjoyed! Sytrus is such a great tool. Cheers!

[Another little thingie]

Sweet stuff.

[Xtrullor - Forbidden Sorcery (Uxveldius Remake)]

Close, but not quite there. Bass needs a little bit more volume in the drop, and certain parts feel a little too simple or too empty. Great job on the mix, though!

Uxvellda responds:

Thanks!

[10th Galaxy [Dubstep] - Killer-FX]

Apparently Xtrullor and Au5 would work together really well. But challenges never stop. Next you could try throwing Rukkus and/or Spag Heddy in a song with one or both of them.

[Gun Freestyle]

Only things about this that are a bit upsetting:
1) Too short
2) Doesn't end smoothly for a normal song (annoying in a playlist)
3) Not enough drops like this ;)
