Shong1up's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Spark Mandrill - Short Circuit (Mega Man X Remix)]

Totally Wild but...

Just like everyone below me I would like to see a re-release of a looping version

rtnario responds:

Eh, someday XD Thanks.

[~EnV~The Truth Rd.2]

Respect!

You got balls to shit on EnV. She's probably the most popular audio artist on this site. Respect.

[No Retreat No Surrender]

Whoa!

This song actually fits Ryu's personality, the beat is off-hook but when you the lyrics... this is more than just another cover song. The execution is perfect, you show professionalism by making a 16-bit song into a hip-hop hit. Try posting this on OCremix, I'm sure DJpretzel will oblige.

KidDeception responds:

Thanks man, I appreciate it, I tried posting this song there first and it was sadly rejected. Ill give it another shot, maybe it was just the weather that day.

[Vibestyler - Summer Rain]

Needs to be more vicious

After hearing Luvstruck2008 I expected ferocious beats with gut-busting bass and wild techno. Compared to that song, this one just seems like less.

[Street Fighter 2: Balrog Omega]

Doesn't suit his character

I love the Balrog theme but the overuse of fiesta trumpets makes Balrog sound Mexican.
Detune some of the trumpets and add more gut busting bass and jazz piano to get that Final Turn Punch feel.

Majorgeneral responds:

I'll see what I can do...thanks for the review

[Ya voz'mu sam - Latin version]

Excellent

Hard to fault as a song but, this should be in the jazz section not Latin.

Would you consider adding the lyrics?

Citrina responds:

Well, it's Latin Jazz. Which makes it both Latin and Jazz :) But since there isn't much improvising, we figured it's closer to Latin...

[[survivor-evoker]]

Awesome but too short

No matter how great a song is it loses listening value if its too short.
shoot for the 3 minute mark

[Cruel Angel's Thesis (Remix)]

Very Good

Didn't like the part from 1:30 to 1:45 and the trance. But otherwise the tempo is alright. I was actually expecting a dance remix but I'll dig anything Evangelion

[36 Chambers of Delinquency]

Superb as always

Did you make this from scratch or did you rip the sound file and do some editing?
Either way as a Hell Girl fan I call this a landslide victory!

DJ-Delinquent responds:

this is a small sample from Hell girl

but most of this is original

i never heard this in the actual anime unfortunatly

[beethoven virus (remix)]

Good, not great

Beethoven's virus is an amazing song to begin with, there isn't much you have to tweak to get a song that makes jump out of your seat. Though this song has the right tempo, the execution was where this song needs improvement... No matter what song you emulate, the music has got to be performed with the right instruments.

If you want to give this song a classical genre, the piano minus the frequent cymbals would have been a better choice.

If you wanted to pursue the techno route, don't go shy on the bass and lose the cheap keyboard.

The melody and beat of the song was a strong positive, Beethoven's virus isn't any good when its too slow.

Overall the song resonates well, but for future reference use different instruments
