OVERSCORE's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dynamite]

I like these melodies a lot! The unique drum pattern also livens it up quite a bit. I also love that bass! When it comes to mixing, my advice is to give every element s p a c e . Space in the stereo field, space in the EQ. Mixing is more than the volume of your instruments! I would say the stereo field especially feels congested. Pan some of your elements! Right now it’s all right in the middle, and they clash a bit.

Dynamic0 responds:

Wow, thanks for feedback! I understood the purpose of mixing while making this song, but I didn't think about integrating panning. I will surely integrate it in my future works :)

[Nebula]

Super energetic dubstep!! I love the intensity you keep up all the way through the track. This also does feel very spacey, fitting the title in that aspect. The key/tempo change in the second drop was so unexpected but it worked really well. But I think my favorite part is that very last section, I can’t even describe why I like it so much, but DAMM you cooked there! Keep it up bro!!
I’d also like to mention that that is one of the most complicated FL screenshots I have ever seen lol.

[Martian - In My Mind (Calibrator Remix)]

Never heard the original, but man I DID the production on this track! Everything sounds crisp and smooth af, and that makes the song hit so much harder. Keep it up!

[Voltage Rush - Rebirth]

You brought back the song that started it all… love the determined guitars and frenzied synths! I love what you’ve done with the piece. Honestly sounds straight out of an old school racing video game in the best way possible!

G2961 responds:

Thanks more for the comment! Yes, after all, it was from that track that what happened began. I'm glad you enjoyed the remake!

[Unforeseen Expectations]

Love the bouncy chiptune feel of this one, super upbeat chords and all! The drum pattern lends a unique groove as well that I think really serves the song. But they also just set the song up for that final drop, where the 2-and-4 beat drums and harder sounds finish off the song perfectly. Great work as always, and congrats on another fp!

G2961 responds:

Thanks for the feedback! Glad you liked my track! :D

[kijika abandon [clip?]]

Absolutely mind-melting stuff, I can’t get enough of all of these stabs! That supersaw lead at 1:21 is legendary as well, the melody sounds so… right, I don’t have a word for it. That intricate ear candy in the ambient sections is awesome. Love all of this!

vekoN responds:

thank you! that's wonderful to hear!

[S0MBRA - Cricket's Courtesy]

Holy crap this is such a cool atmosphere!! I agree with the previous reviewer who said that the crickets are at the perfect volume… they really do fit perfectly into the mix to always be notable, but never too attention-grabbing.

S0MBRASOUNDS responds:

Thank you! I'm so glad you like it :)

I was trying to capture the atmosphere of isolation at night in the small town I used to live.

[S0MBRA - The Empty Hourglass]

Again you killed it with the production! I love these vocal samples as well, they really set the mood for the track. And when that bass starts— EPIC. Your flavor of trance is so cool!

S0MBRASOUNDS responds:

Thank you! I'm very glad you enjoyed! I'm happy that the trance section turned out well! It's one of the first times I've attempted the genre. Also, it's actually me on the vocals throughout this whole ep :)

[DXLS & ImMoxta - Blast Boosters (DXLS Version)]

Hyped to hear more music from you again! I still greatly enjoy your F-777 inspired sound. Really cool collaboration, having you release more music this year will be awesome DXLS!

DXLS responds:

Thank you so much!! ♥
