Pingu's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Quasar]

Starts out by diving you right into the deep end, which can be good if you like the ear-shock of your 7.1 headphones at max volume. That's on me, though I'd be curious to see some of the buildup of the 0:55 mark on the front end to allow a few seconds of adjustment leeway since there's already an 8 second lead out at the end.

Nice buildup to the 1:49 mark, and I can definitely hear where you got the title from, as it does have an interstellar feel to it.

Good beats all the way through, with some well placed changes in tempo to keep it from being repetitive.

Found on NG Radio. Nice work, faved.

DJ-Doty responds:

Thank you so much Peregrinus! I'm really glad you liked it. Also, thanks for your input! I hadn't noticed 0:55 it until you mentioned it, I'll look into it. :)
ty for the fav! Have a nice day! :D

I like it

I like hearing a good new take on a good song. Dance isn't a category I dip into often, but when I hear submissions like this, it makes me want to hear more.

It's good that you added you own twist by replacing the "Die bitch" with your own opener.

I gave this a 5 and a download (damn you! Now I have a "Dance" section to my library!)

It's like a dance virus!

Nice

A very smooth song. I don't really know how to describe my feelings towards this song; it's a good track, and it invokes certain images in my mind. I can't really describe them, but whatever.

You have the potential to be a great artist with works like this. I hope to check back in the future and see more tunes like this from you.

5, and a download :)

Zn3tz responds:

Thanx man! Now that you want more I just have to speed up my work :)
thanx again

Different

A definite alteration of the style I've come to associate with you, but still has your sound to it.

I can certainly see why you named it what you did :P

I have a question that I've always been wondering about: Is there any reason you have "--__--" in the titles of all your audio? Just a quirk, or is there a fancy story behind this?

Anyways, back to the track: not one of my favorites, but still pretty cool. The one specific thing I didn't like was the ending. It seemed too short, and to me it seemed to kind of not give a sense of closure to the song. I mean, it feels like an abrupt end and transition if it's playing in a playlist. It just cuts to something totally different without giving the listener time to know it's over.

Just my thought.

5/5 and a download: "Because I can"

PERVOK responds:

Its not often I get asked why I have the quadriple hyphen sleepy face, so I'll tell you the story behind it :)

A while ago, when I was just starting to submit to Newgrounds, I felt a huge rush to submit to newgrounds. I was making at least like, 3 or 4 songs a day. Sometimes 5. Thus why I have so many :P

But, one time I made a song at like, 4 or 5 in the morning or something, and I put a quadriple hyphen sleepy face in the name of the song just to show that I was really freakin' tired when I made it.

I made the song "mindless--_--" where I used the sleepy face for the first time so people could know it was me. Then, I never used it again until I made "mindless--_--PT 2" and by then, I had realized that this little funny lookin' sleepy face has made it so people recognize that all those millions of songs that are popping into the uaiod portal are by ME.

So, it stuck with me. I tried other ones, like the triple squared one (I was going to use that whenever I made a dNb song... go check out my older songs and see for yourself) but since it had no significance to anything, I never kept on doing it.

So yeah. Now you know.

Thanks for the review!

Make a longer version

The title pretty much sums up my only beef with this audio. It builds up quite nicely, but it's too short to really do justice to your abilities. I don't see why you made such a short track for a podcast. If you made a longer track, with variation of style, then more people would take notice (because currently by the time the track registers in your mind, it's over).

Just a thought.

But in general, your overall work is excellent. I've been whoring your music to friends.

And on a tangent, I liked your username better as Zenon...

PERVOK responds:

Holy, I actually got a new review on an older track. Thank you, good sir! :D

Thanks for adressing the need to make a full version of this song. No one really told me about the need to make a longer version, so I guess that I let this song die into the abyss.

As for it being short, its a loop for the podcast open up. Like, when the podcast DJ is speaking about random news and stuff. Thats qhy its short, its ment to be looped.

And thank you about the music whoring thing! I greatly appreciate that :)

And about the name thing... I, personally didn't like the name "Zenon". Athough it was much more catchy and all that jazz, Zenon and DJ Zenon are both very renouned and EXTREMELY talented signed trance artists.

Stupid bastards.

Well, thanks for the thoughts on my song. I seriously appreciate it when pepole take the time to tell me stuff like this :)

See ya later!
