PRYZM's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Gabu - Path]

This may be personal preference, but the sustain strings/chords sound too dry to me making them sound kind of fake to my ears, I would put more reverb on them. The synth bass in the background of 00:38 and 2:56 sounds kind of out of place to me compared with the acoustic samples throughout the rest of the song. I feel like the reversed crash sample at 1:10-ish is a bit too loud. The flute at 1:01 and 2:45 has a lot of high frequencies in them, I would EQ those out.

Overall though this sounds really good and I think you picked solid sounding libraries for your sounds.

SaikouGabu responds:

Thank you a lot for your feedback !
I'll take everything into account for the next time :D

[Rain Coming]

Alright so, first of all, I wanted to say that the guitar in the song is really nice. However... I'm gonna have to give this a low score.. I feel like the drop is really hard to listen to, as it's really noisy and messy to me. Maybe I'm just biased because I don't really like dubstep in general, but I just feel like the synths you've chosen aren't really that pleasant to listen to.. And this is not me trying to be mean, but sometimes they hurt a little to listen to, perhaps because you've put too much distortion on them or that they're too high pitched?

[The Function (Feat. Piché)]

This is pretty nice. I will say, I don't like the autotune on the vocals though that may be more of a personal preference. The drums also kinda get buried by the other elements imo.

YasiinClemens responds:

Thank you <3 Honestly I only use the auto tune because my voice is booty lol

[SVRGE - Animosity [The diverse release]]

This sounds really good, though I think it could benefit from more background elements. The piano at the beginning could also use some reverb.

[Electric Mist]

I like the chords in the beginning, though the drums sound a little too offbeat to me. I think there should be more of a transition of each section, it kinda seemed like they came out of no-where to me. I think this could be a little louder. I don't like the fade out of the track, I think it could be replaced with a different interesting section instead, although I'm unsure if that's there because it might be a wip or not. Overall I really liked this, sounds a lot more unique than the typical EDM structure of a intro, buildup, then drop.

Psilenth responds:

Ya will probably rearrange the structure and do transition this a one hour build so it isn't polished.

[QUB3 - Lost in Emotion (Promo Cut)]

The lead is too loud to the point I can't hear the vocals when it plays, but it's mixed very professionally, the only thing I would say is the vocal style is a bit overused but that's more of a personal preference.

B0UNC3 responds:

Thank you for the constructive feedback, Will keep that in mind next time :D.

[Hi! (free download)]

The high pitched vocals are a little annoying, but other then that it's really nice, I love the 8-bit synths.

[chillout-to-the-max]

This is pretty nice, I would probably make it just a slight bit louder, but I've never done lofi styled stuff before so what do I know about mixing it? I heard a tiny bit of distortion in some parts so make sure nothing is in the red.

[Alarm]

Really good, sounds just a little bit overcompressed imo though.

[Tri Trouble]

Pretty good, you should raise the volume of it though.

Neobuki-ElectraZone responds:

Thanks :) dunno how to turn it up tho
