DjMontana's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[{DjF}Finders Keepers]

DJ Final....

Hello DJ final...

I have not heard any off your work yet.. but from now on i will keep an eye out !
First off i have too say the sounds you use do sound good but the totall fulness is not what i think it should be.
My advice is put multiple layers at the start for example so the the sound feels more complete.
You have a good sound vibe.. but you don`t use all that you have...

But overall a good track..

[-[Change Is Good]-]

Changes can be Good !

Hey Japetheape...

wel i Haven`t heard youre work on newgrounds before but im glad i did.
You Have a very unique way of making these trance tracks..reminds a little off me sometimes.
I must Say the First buildup is classic..very good !
but lateron this main tunes..a saw comes up..i don`t know i like it but not for 100% but thats my opinion.

Then it builds off wich is nicely done..real smooth exchange off the track.
After that the track builds up and off again..abit too quick..those high short sounds are Really good..i think u should have used a Flute here instead wich would make it more orient.
But the overall sound is Very Rich..GOod work man.

If u have Time Please listen to some off my Work...

YEA HOLIDAYS!!!!!!~!!!!!!@!@!@#@!#$@!~!11 11 I just got out of school for the break :D. Anyways back on topic thanks for the compliments. Later on when the saw comes up can you explain what you didn't like about it, you can add my msn if you want. When the buildup comes on later I do take pride in that :D. I don't think it builds off to quick though since its longer than any other melody in the song. For the flute, it would have added some more originality but I wanted this song to be mostly electronic. I'll go check out some of yours now :D!

[When a Tear is Shed - F-777]

jesse valantine..

hello Jesse...

I never seen you here.. but it looks like u have many people who recodnize
youre talent.
So you wont need mine as well but that doesn`t mean i can`t comment :D

I have to agree with gregagooron...some things u use are not off dance.
But the sound u got out off this is indeed amazing !
The bassline and drum have a good vibe...they help each other like it
should be.

The piano...well.. i kind off got now words for that..just wow !
Together with the sequence jingle in the back the piano get`s that extra free feeling too it !

Great JOB....

[DJ Derrick--The Way Home]

hey Derick ..

Well.. let`s see man...

Starts off quite nice.. flowable ...
good deep base and drum wich go together in nice cossesion...

Nice deep sounds, very clear sounding... olmost this epic vibe you gave it.. bit armin van buuren style...
Setup has that feeling that there is a tune coming... i like that around 2.00min...

hmm setup from the tune is good, but sounds a little too soft just A little.. but gets picked up wright after that ! so no prob there... :D
Ohh that high end tune in the back..at 3.50 those high C tones.. 5 or so tones... i like those very much...

One thing already it doesnt get boring what so ever... very nice timing on when you change the tunes...High end flow when the main tunes goes over in this.. double Synthesizer...also GOOD !

Im gonna make this my fav !

You settled in with this one Brilliant !

[Space Ballad ~ Epic Trance ~]

Space trance !

Well.. this is More like it !!
A space trance track with already a nice start !
The beginning is already very nice, and the tune wich comes up sound
great !!
The beat is just a little soft, but i think that`s youre intention !
The Part at 2.16 sounds a little off ! the back beat should not be there in my opnion !
Then when the beat is alone with the bass is Sounds real good...

A nice quite part where the beat is coming up !!
too bad at this part you don`t have a nice flowing Vocal line..
Piano sounds real good...

Overall nice track !!

[Beat Is Coming ~ Euro Trance]

kate lessing high voice !

Hey man,

I also got all the kate lessing vocals..all bought online !
But ehh already the voice... Cmòn..This is like a high C tone...
It does NOT match !!

The music sounds real good !!
But........... i suggest u try to stretch it a little further out..
what i mean is that it`s all too pushed in one area !
Like a fatman trying to push himself trough a small door !!

I think if u try again with the vocals on the right Tone level..and stretching the sounds..It would be perfect!!

[Monolithic Filter RMX]

A remix off a Demo ! :/

Hey PremoEffect !

So a Remix off a track wich is already in the Fruityloops Demo.
I don`t know if that is a really good idea, but for something to try out it`s ok !

I don`t know how the original is but this sounds good overall.
Nice Flowing areas, but a bit Too high for my taste sometimes...
Although i like the bass sounds in the back very much !

good job overall...

Greetz DJMontana

please check my stuff if u have time !:D

PrEmoEffect responds:

ok thank you, idk it was just an experimental thing because it was a song in which I already have the flp

[No Man's Land]

Wow ... Exorcist Style !!

Hey Ulysess,...

Don`t know why u added this track in the Trance Section but ok..
Youre first Submission is always the hardest... or so i remember.

well this track has a Real strange way of getting to its feet, but when Those Piano tones come up..that is real nice part !!
I see why u say Unique, its a strange track with very strange usses of sounds.
That Doesn`t mean its bad ! so u know !....
Real nice Flow when the track goes down....

If u have time Please Listen to some off my tracks..

Nice ending , only a little too short for my taste... those short tones are real good
A longer ending would have been better, in my Opinion !!

Good track overall...

[DJ Derrick--Walk Alone (Ext.)]

hey Derrick.. kate lessing or is it ?

Well well....

A nice track Indeed too bad i Have the same Vocals ! hahahah
I think im gonna use it in a Different track tough !
But ahhh This Vocal is Real Nice edited in the Track..
The Synthesizer Flow is perfect with her Voice notes...
Dont know how long u Worked on this, but it sounds real good, Flow just keeps on coming up !!!

Ohh the Fill on 4.00 is real nice... Only the beat is on the soft side at the end of the track..Mabey For my taste that could have been darker. ;D

But keep it up man !! you still got it !!
This is the way i like it !
Please check my new tracks too if u Have time ??

Greetz DJMontana

Yodamanjaro responds:

i did it in a weekend...didn't spend too long on it.

I'll check out your latest one but I'm at the library, so I can't crank up the volume too much ;)

Thanks for the review man!

[DJ Derrick--Keys of Silence]

Derrick in the house !

Hey man...

Well im not used to these kind off tunes...
But for what it`s worth it does sound real relaxing like u said.
u have made some real nice flowing areas.. and from about 2. min this high tone makes it really spacy...
The under tones Long synth is real nice work... the flow is Exactly right...good job on that.

The piano is Real interesting..im getting this vibe... a Good one..
I hope i can steal those tones from you..hahah it would sound great in a trance track.

Im not used to these slow tracks from you, but it looks like u have talent in more than one area.. keep it up man..

Hope to hearing form ya...
