Quarl's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[JAG~Ultima_300]

Taffy taffy taffy.

haha, I can totaly see someone DDR dancing to this. It was a really simple track, in melody and rhythem, but it held together in the long run. I really liked the synths at the begining of the track. The snare and bass drum variation was nice. Kept things original. Overall, I think it's a little too repetitive, but it's still good.

beatmasterJAG responds:

Hahaha, ask Nukem to web cam himself next time he does it! I've seen him film himself trying to be a master of the DDR before :P ROFL

Thanks for the review!

[Funky Jamz]

Not your work, but whatever.

This is just a garage band mix. I'm sorry, but can you please be a little more original? I'm not blowing any whistles here, but really, the presets are just ment to give you ideas. They arn't there for you to claim for your own. Really, expieriment a bit with thr programs recording capabilities. It's easy. Just open a new track and use a software instrument. Lay down some drums, then play....eh.

[~EnV~Chaos Sphere (Edit)]

Taffy song sir taffy of taffville.

I didn't know what to think when I heard the intro all low because I've never actually heared one of your tracks before, but I was really pleased with this. It had some really possitive energy to it. When I heard that synth charge up, I was like "adfgn fam s." My only complaint was how short this track was. It could have been wayyy longer :)

I ENVY this track. WOAH, I'm so punny. haha... :(

Envy responds:

The intro was an idea I had right from the beginning to have it slightly quiet, and I think it worked out pretty well! And yeah it definately could have been longer, but perhaps that's for another day and another remix...

I Quarl you for your remix... Does that mean anything?

[dj_padman - Bulk Lull]

GLOMP

Wow. This track is so much more light hearted than your other classical stuff i've checked out. It was really soothing and melodic. I'm falling in love with this track.

[p4c-house2(complete)]

Really good....really.

Hot damn, I love this. It sounds so much better on my home computer. I love the tech feel of that one note played on the threes and fours. The polyrhythems are hot like waffles. Arr. I'd recomend coming up with more original song names. House2 just doesn't cut it :D

This has such a gritty sound to it. I love it. I really like the melody that plays at 1:30, and the harmonization sounds really slick. I can't believe this has such a low score. Some people
:( Your ideas kick ass. Curious, what program do you use?

p4c responds:

hehe ty dood ty, yeah i dont really know why all my scores are hovering at like low 3s, but w/evs. btw i use reason :D

[+=RUN=+]

I like taffy.

Alot of work is needed here, but for what it is, it's original and interesting. I think the song could be played at a faster tempo, and the drums could stand to be alot stronger and more varied, but it was a neat constant polyrhythem. The synth could be grittier. Curious, what program are you using?

DJ-DairyKing responds:

Right now.... Just FL Studio 7 care to help?

[~[ High Octane Battle ]~]

Taffy sounds make taffy music.

I really loved this track. I loved the squishy sounding pad in the background. So damn cool. I made an instrument playing by modding the presets in garage band that sounded alot like it. You reviewed my song that had that thing in it, but I wish I could change the pitch/tempo of it instantaneously like you can. What program do you use?

Also, there was something uniquly funkey about this track. That squish pad as I'm calling it reminded me of a wah peddle. The drums weren't that original, but they were tight. My speakers died or something, so I'm listening to this through the muffeled moniter speakers. I can't wait till I get some new ones though so I can hear it in all it's natural glory. Given my speaker scenario, I gave you the benefit of the doubt for clarity. I also like to make assumptions that most people work equally hard on their tracks.

Oh, one more thing. Can you review my latest song "Antagonist?" I really liked the feedback that you gave me on two of my other tracks. It was kind/ harsh, and it really helps alot.

[TAA--Duel of Valor]

Classical taffy.

First off, my speakers SUCK. Second off, from what I could make out, this was a really good classical piece. When I squinted my ears, I could hear allot of realy cool things going on. The melodies were never too complex, but they were earie. I really liked the chorus. You should have tried giving the chorus sections seperate rhythems and more dynamic parts/MORE parts. Also, most choral groups don't transission/ cut off that good and if they did, they'd have more parts in the piece. Really i'm just nit picking though. The percussion sounded key. The strings were pretty cute too. Good job here!

TheAmateurAnimator responds:

Thanks. You've got some good advice about the choir--I tried giving them more parts, but I failed and decided to keep it simpler. I guess I should have tried harder. Get new speakers, though. Or headphones. My speakers suck too, so I use my headphones for everything.

PS. How do you squint your ears?

[DJ Comet-Crackhead]

Taffy!

I really don't get the point of 400 bpm. Can the brain even interpret sound that fast? I know that the fastest a human can take in visualy per second is 24 frames, it wouldn't suprise me if there is a similar cap on sound. And for the most part, I can't really hear the benefit of speed core. Though the speakers I have hooked up at the moment SUCK. For some reason my good ones stopped wortking.

Despite the 400 bpm thing, I actually liked what I could hear through my muzzled speakers. The hard rhythem was really neat. It was hard to predict, and the background instruments didn't over power the rhythem at all. The synth melody was really earie and cool. Really, you did a good job here. I can't say i've heared too much like it. I wish my speakers didn't suck so much. I gave you the benefit of the doubt for clarity. I also gave you a 10 for effort seeing as how you worked at...well...400 bpm.

TheComet responds:

actually the brain can piece together an animation at 24 fps MINIMUM, the actual "framerate" the brain can interpret is well into the thousands per second.
