Cimba's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Micho - Ruins]

Digin the track man! It's realy chill. I'd be curious to know how you made the main wobble voice :)

MichoMen responds:

I was just screwing around in NI Massive and I found that wobble but it was too rough so I lowered it by deleting and editing some effects. I don't really know which preset was it because I have like thousand of them. I remember I searched "sick wobble presets for massive". xD I can give you some tips if you want. :P

Hey bro,
I don't write many reviews, but I feel like I owe you one. I've been a fan of yours since I first got into dubstep. My friend told me some artist to go check out so I went to itunes and got myself the "essentials". But then I started producing and using ng a lot and I found you. I listened to a couple of your tracks and was like wow...this is way better than frikin skrillex and all them. I have a CD made of your stuff that I listen to and it encourages me that maybe one day I can be a great producer too.

TheBiocide responds:

Man, I don't get reviews like this often... seriously appreciate this - It genuinely brought a smile to my face :) Can't thank you enough, man, what a humbling review. It's a real honor to be looked-up to as a producer. Let me just say, you guys - the reviewers - are one of the main reasons why I continue to dish out as many free songs as possible.

Cheers, my friend, and thanks again for the awesome review!

[Aylius - Lucid [NEW SONG]]

How did you create that gritty voice with the downward pitch bend if I may ask? What program to you use? Oh ya, and a truly amazing track my friend!

Exotec responds:

many hours of synth programming and 3 separate synth layers combined together :P I basically take about a day or two to create my main bass synth(s) from scratch for each song, and then create the rest of the synths from scratch as I go along (that's why I take about a month producing each track). And I make all my stuff in Reason 4 at the moment. Thanks for listening! New material is on the way :)

[Ich Glaube]

If you want me to be completely honest I think you should begin this track at 0:54 and use that bit as an intro into something. I love that part. Maybe take your piano theme and throw it on a synth voice over some bass? You should watch some youtube videos on using GarageBand. I think that would help you a lot. I don't think you should consider this project finished just yet though. It has so much potential. I'm sorry if I'm not praising you enough but I dont think that"s what you're looking for in a review. I hope you understand and I hope this helped!

Knaxder responds:

Thanks for the review, and you are correct, praise isn't what I am looking for.

Wubs for the win

Dude...nice. I loooooooove ur drop! and those r some really awsome wubwubs. I'd love to know how ur doin that.

TheBiocide responds:

Thanks a lot dude! I'm glad you liked it :)

[GrayZ+F-777 Beyond the Dark.]

This is cool

I like this a lot. I love what u've done with the samples. It makes me think of an eagle soaring in the clouds. I like the part around the middle when the pounding bass drum comes in. It's hard to pull of majestic with this genre but u managed to. kudos to u.

GrayZ responds:

Haha thanks alot man :) It's always great to get a nice review and not get 0 bombed and ripped to shreds :]

[-Orr- 4 Brave Champions [FULL]]

...the word epic is not worthy of this song..

I LOVE IT!!! THe choir at the beginning was absolutly amazing and epic. I love it...i wish i could write stuff like this...you're awsome

DavidOrr responds:

Thanks!

[CKC - Touch of Destiny]

SWEET!!!!!!!

This is SOOOOOOO much better than the crap that some rappers and hip-hop artests put out...why can't you take lil wayne's place?

CKC2009 responds:

because i havent had my shot yet..

[Orchestral Theme 1]

Wow...

I have to ask what program you use. I love this song, however i'm trying to figure out what is going on in the percussion. The staccato section didn't sit as well as some of the other parts of the song, but i still loved it. Could you do me a favor and tell me what program you use and to explain what is happening in the percussion section?

Gravey responds:

To see what programs I use please see my latest news post. It outlines all of my gear.

[. Even In Death (Au Revoir) .]

It's Beautiful

This is such a deep and beautiful song. It brings me feelings like sadness, but also peacefulness. It has a hidden element of, for lack of a better word, happiness. If you listen it's not really a mournful goodbye, more of a "i hope you do well and see you soon" kind of goodbye. It resolves the issue of death with a different view. Like it's not the end. Hope, that was the word I was looking for. I can feel the feelings that this song is meant to portray, which is a very hard thing for a composer to do. My only complaint, and it's not really a complain, is that the end iss kind off like " aaaah this is so pretty...where'd it go?" I think the song needs to resolve somehow. But overall amazing work. This piece has done more for me than those songs that people call epic with the suspense and the power. This has power put it is harnessed. Very Very good.

DjRocALot responds:

I really like what you write, cause there is a "hope" under the sadness of the song.
A hope to meet her again someday and that she is ok where she is. Thank you for the good review and for the score!
