Discuss.

3 and 4 make ma ears bleed. Too compressed, too loud, too poorly mixed. :(

Response to The weekly tops discussion thread 2009-12-30 05:59:36


#1 is not a song
#2 is well done
#3 is no surprise
#4 is teasing x-D I wonder what the real song will be like.
#5 is a bit too generic and could be mixed better

I agree with the post above, but dam, that teaser is really getting on my nerves, I really want o hear the real thing.

Don't worry, I'm hard at work on it and hope to post the real thing ASAP. I'm actually quite surprised that the sample got in the list this week. Oh, and congrats to all the other "top-fivers," great work!

I'm curious why bjra would bury such obviously worthwhile vocals so deep in effects.

Ditto. I didn't hear too many inconsistencies that would need to be hidden in reverb (unless, well, they were successfully hidden) and although sometimes delay/reverb helps it sound ethereal, it could've been toned down a tad.

if it's hiding any shakiness, tell Julia to sing it out! it sounds good-- looking forward to the updated version.

1 & 2.. is what I might call crap :3

3 & 5 are decent

The first one is absolutely terrible, even by NG's standards...

THE NEWGROUNDS PODCAST

Sometimes, it would rain men. "Hallelujah!" we would cry. Thousands were killed.

Response to The weekly tops discussion thread 2010-01-13 08:56:50


The only reason all those "crap-filled" songs got onto the top 5 was because the zero bombers took a break this week...

Therefore, no matter how much we hate them... they do help make Newgrounds how it should be.

Even though they lower our scores too >:[

The only track i liked was Number 5. The rest to me my opinion is isnt that great and some are complete garbage :(

I highly encourage you to read the initial post of this thread very carefully.

#3 Was awesome!

Some part could have been improved but damn, that is real hardstyle.

Response to The weekly tops discussion thread 2010-01-13 13:00:35


3 + 5 are good. rest are shit.

Response to The weekly tops discussion thread 2010-01-13 13:07:22


Number 3 sounded really good.

Also, I just think that #1 does not deserve to be there, because it's too simple and basic, there isn't much going on, and it lasts 11 seconds.....

Good to see epixa get some exposure. He's a wonderful hardstyle artist. Haywire is just a G and will always get song of the week when he submits but I think the general consensus is that 3 & 5 are this week's actually-may-deserve-to-be-there songs.

Response to The weekly tops discussion thread 2010-01-13 15:16:36


To Mich:

#2 In case a tune have been heavily struck by what you suspect to be massvoters, please do not discuss that in this thread. There is an official thread for that.

I'm not suggesting that.

#5 If anyone mentions zerovoting or 'zerobombing', this person will be slapped with a large trout by yours truly, and risk having their rule-breaking post deleted and/or getting banned by any BBS-moderator.

I didn't mean to mention that exactly.. just that they do help.

Sorry Mich :D

Lols. Sorry for that, I kind of went to bed at 6AM local time - which is actually when the new tops come up. Maybe I should have just pushed my bedtime another 5 minutes andposted the top5. Thanks though. :)

I think it was kind of to be expected F-777 would get top 5, because nowadays, he ALWAYS does when he has a new song out, lol.
I'm happy to see Kazmo twice in the top 30 too, I think that's been a while. Haven't checked out the rest yet.

This week top five is really good (specially number 5)

but why number 1 has 1,768 listens and 5,970 downloads??

I am Confused....

no.. it has to be submitted this week to get top 5...

Response to The weekly tops discussion thread 2010-01-27 17:05:36


#1 Generic, way to generic for me...

#2 i putting a question mark on the legality of this song

#3 quite good, but not quite my style...

#4 again, way to generic, nothing new or interesting...

#5 gets repetitive way too quickly, other than that... good.

SO! what to say about the list... meh, ive seen better on this site...

True that. I tried to explain him how the use of a preset gate is cheap, unoriginal and recognizable but he didnt really seem to care :-P

#2 i putting a question mark on the legality of this song

I know Jahn, I think he actually contacted the original artist via myspace to get a remix pack.

#3 quite good, but not quite my style...

I think the master channel suffers slightly from some bad compressions, some weird little things happen with the volume and the dynamics all the time.
Other than that, quite an excellent song

#4 again, way to generic, nothing new or interesting...

Generic, yo

#5 gets repetitive way too quickly, other than that... good.

FL default samples, blargh
I explained it to him in a constructive way, he agreed :)
Then another reviewer came buy, told me I was an asshole :/

Not to de-rail this thread...but how does the All-Time list work? A song I submitted, OnOff, managed to get #6 this week, but I don't seem to have crazy high rating/listens or downloads. Meh?
