Reviews for TiGeR - Susurration

[J3envolio]

Drums

They're often overlooked when it comes to NewGrounds yet they can be brilliantly placed if they're given the right amount of attention.

Unfortunately, I feel that you've given them too much attention and the beat that you've chosen to use is very glitchy. Now admittedly this worked very well at 0:51 but once the drop happened it felt very out of place, with the drum syncopation at the end of every 4 bars. It's a good idea but I think this track would sound better and more full if you'd stuck to the general drum & bass drum line.

Apart from that, this is an excellent track! Loving the gritty feel you've given it and very much like the 8-bit synths you've used through-out. I have to say that I do agree with you on that synth sounding as though it's whispering.

I've never listened to any of yoru stuff before so I'm not sure how dark this is but I'll give them an ear after this!

Have fun;
J3en.

Thanks for a brilliant review.

As you hear at the end of every 2nd bar I've done a very marking syncopation. Not only the drums but the bass aswell. The drum beat is the essence of what DnB is so I thought I'd add something new to it, thus adding the very marking syncopes at every (actually it's not every but still...) 2-bar-end. To make the song more of my own if you know what I mean. Personally I think it adds a very "jumpy" feeling to the song and personally I find it very ear-soothing in a sense. You know, a very catchy feel to the beat. Glitchy? Please explain further :)

Could aswell mention I add fills here and there to add some general variety. Anyway, I definetly see what you mean about the general drum beat, but personally I thought it would've sound really well like they are now when I first submitted the song. I'll take your criticism in consideration for my upcoming songs.

And dude, you being this constructive at (what personally is) my best song, you're gonna flame my other three songs to death xD. You should avoid Altocumulus if you're not into "glitchy" drums ;)

Anyway, thanks again for this review. I think it's the best I got for this song so a big + to you :p. I'm glad you enjoyed the song and I hope the drums don't ruin your "Susurration-experience" :)

Woah, really awesome!

I love the beginning for it's somewhat dirge-like feel, and then it eases up into a DnB, retaining the power of the start through the entire song. Really great how you made part of it sound 8-bit in a way. awesome job!

TiGeR responds:

Adding a touch of videogame in my song is what you could call one of my characteristics ;)

Thanks for reviewing and it makes me happy to see you enjoy the song!

Very good!

I'm normally not that into DnB, but this is actually really, really good! Especially the part that starts at 1:39. The song is pretty dark though it still has kind of a "hopeful" tone to it, if that makes sense.

Anyways, I really enjoyed it. Huge props to you, sir.

TiGeR responds:

Thanks for the kind review man!

Well I'm kinda in love with DnB (xD) so I can't really tell if this song is expectionally good for people that usually aren't into the genre :P. But still, I'm really glad you enjoyed the song and hope you stay tuned for future stuff aswell!
