"Amazingly random"

submission: O&J Kagerou Pan
date: February 22, 2009

I had the most wonderful seizure... it was great. All the flashing colors and whatnot... i wish I was on acid.

Oh, and make a flash with my music... or else.

"WIN"

date: January 13, 2009

I laughed.

I cried.

I was reminded of painful childhood memories.

Never before have so few defined parameters meant so much....

The Insanity Box

"Not enough LSD"

submission: The Insanity Box
date: September 1, 2008

I wasn't on enough LSD to have this game make sense, but it was a good substitute.

C'mon, pox, you're from debaucherous canada. Hook a NGer up with that sweet, sweet 'cid so I can play your game and have it make complete sense.

I got bored at like 10% of trying to make that game like a seizure-inducing drug trip :O

If I was a great coder, I could make a game where you just take drugs and the screen gets all fucked up as you play the game and it gets impossibly hard and insane just because the enemies are flying frogs and you're seeing colors like blurple and grue all over the place.

A Marvelous Suitcase

"Your right hand."

date: September 12, 2009

I'm focusing on your right hand. I notice you've got your double kicks down, fucking awesome, but I notice a serious lack of stuff like latin and african style claves and straight up gear changes. You're doing things on the kicks you should be doing with your hands, which isn't quite meshing with the guitars.

Again, heavy reliance on effects on everything, not to say you're not tonally correct, just that when you're using a clean tone on the guitars, you can't just pound in with the double kicks like you do on the hard songs. There's lots of places where you're shuffling the kicks where you should be shuffling your pinger or your ride cymbal.

my first thought when hearing the guitars is "separated teradiddle (21221211) with slow dynamic cymbal build" but instead you're all trying to hardcore this one out. Also, the sampled "clap snap rap" effect completely throws me off.

You keep doing corps style snare in places where an airy big cymbal holding pattern should be.

Again, great song, very clear and all that, but there's more to music that sound clarity. In the opener, you go for highhat when ride would match the reverb on the guitar more.

I know I sound like I'm nitpicking, but what good is a review without constructive criticism?

Basically, in short, you need to work on your strike form on your right hand. That's why your kicks are so much faster than your hands; I have a feeling if I watched you play your arms are doing all the work instead of your fingers.

Dortmunder

"How do you do this live?"

submission: Dortmunder
date: September 12, 2009

I mean, this is really good... but can you do this live? With the effects and all?

It's very good, but.... everything sounds TOO crisp, like you either used triggers or electric drums.

For instance, I don't hear any dynamics in your strikes. Every strike is the exact same volume and timber as the last.

I mean, yeah, if you just want to make good music to submit to NG, fucking kudos, it's a good song... but playing shows? how will you make that happen?

TF - Farewell NG BBS 

"Harshness a signature?"

date: April 24, 2009

So far I've heard two of your tracks... both overly harsh on the ear.

There's so much more to the palette than just crispness... like how redstripe beer goes with fish, but Negra Modelo goes with beef. There's got to be a balance, otherwise the track. My fast dirty suggestion is paying more attention to the EQ and adding mids and lows to the harsh tracks.
