CANDYdisturber's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Challenge Accepted]

Really digging this! Kinda reminds of some of the tracks from Knuckles Chaotix.

As for production quality, great job. Keep it up!

[Delight's Plight OST - Dark Fortress]

This is pretty great; I could definitely picture this in a dark castle area. And at 01:12 it's kinda like the reveal for a final boss battle; reminds me a lot of Dark Cloud. Great Job with that atmosphere!

Kryomax responds:

Darkcloud soundtrack is actually another influence of my mine, next to Soul Reaver and Quake.

[BT-WIRE - Ol1V3]

This is actually pretty damn cool; I really love that arpeggio. Everything seems to flow really nicely as well. Only really complaint is the Hi-hats are really loud, and the little random sounds are a nice touch, but need some EQing or effects.
Other than that, I can see a lot of improvement from your previous stuff. All I can say is keep learning and trying new shit.

[still here (unfinished)]

I've been in the same rut, man.
It's not a matter of if it will pass, but rather knowing it eventually will. One day you'll randomly get super motivated out of nowhere and maybe even make the best sounds you've ever let jumble in your head.

Don't give up on it, but taking a break is always nice. I haven't produced a single thing this year, but I'm excited to hear what my breakout will be once I finally start up again, and same goes for you because I know you got that passion.

Like the beat, by the way.

ToxInjection responds:

Apologies for getting to this so late. I really appreciate that, man! Maybe today's gonna be the start of that for me. We'll have to see.

Hoping the same for you <3

[By Default]

Here to put the rest of the audio portal to shame I see.

[8bit BGM 3]

Not bad man; really liking that melody in the beginning.
One thing you need to watch out for is mixing; making sure everything flows nicely and can be heard. Once 0:26 hit it got a little confusing and kinda just went all over the place. It's mostly due to that reverb you put in there; the delay was a little too long and everything seemed to collide with each other.
But near the end it was really nice; it's got a lot of potential, you've just gotta work with it a bit and get to feel it a little better. Keep it up!

vit320dragon responds:

Thanks dude. I'm releasing my lesser projects here on NG. Waiting to finish the more important ones and see that stuff of copyright and so on... I'd recomend checking my other songs. for now I'm at 8 bit music but I'll try to make some dance music as well.

[Vaccination]

I really like this one; it's really different from the norm and the production quality is really high as well. The wubs were really nicely put in; a little empty but great nonetheless. That orgasm sfx was a bit much to be much, kinda made that part a little too far out there (at least for me). All in all, great work; a few nitpicks here and there and that's about it. Keep it up!

ToxInjection responds:

Hey man! Thanks for checking some of the tracks out.

Yeah, I figured some parts were gonna sound like they lacked a little something, and I think I ended up having that happen because I tried focusing more on making stuff rather than being a perfectionist about everything. That, and I really wanted to finally make a dubstep track that was WAY more raw and aggressive. Sort of explains why I went nuts with the moan FX, LOL. I'll make sure I tone down on that next time around!

I'm really happy you noticed the production quality. I put a lot more effort into the overall EQing, and I think it came out great. Did new stuff I never did before with this track, like exporting it as a .wav and putting it into FL again to tweak the frequencies of the entire song. I was really able to bring out more sounds on the higher frequency that way without muffling the other stuff going on.

You bet there'll be more stuff to come this year, and you helped a lot with that :D

[Bitcoin Hustler (Unfinished)]

Lol the random noises were a bit of a throw off at some points but the beat itself is pretty damn nice; with a little work this could something great

ToxInjection responds:

Yeah, I went preeeetty overboard with the retro FX. I just found an entire site full of 'em and just went to town, downloading a whole chunk of them and just threw them in haphazardly. If and when this does become a finished product, they'll be used way better and spaced more!

Glad you liked the beat though! Wasn't sure if the 808 was way too overbearing, but I also thought "hey, I dig that in trap songs, so leave it as is" ;D
