3YEOfficial's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Telaris - Nightfall]

I feel like you have a lot of potential but there’s a few things greatly holding you back.
1. I feel like your heavy drops tend to just be spamming basses with no real thought of where to put them or rhythm. In this particular track the rhythms are wildly all over the place and the basses even goes off beat. I think some simple research into how to hook your audience rhythmically with a heavy drop will be VERY helpful for you to look into.
2. In general I feel like your music tends to lack hooks. And similarly to the last thing, a great way to get better at getting the interest of your audience is just listening to a really interesting music and noting down what they’re doing to hook you. Analyzing the work of other people is extremely helpful for anyone, and I’ve learned a ton just from listening to other people’s music.
3. With your melodic drops ik you’re trying to go for this big melodic dubstep sound but it tends to just sound like a block of clipping saws and choir with some drums drowned out in the mix, which is too bad because with the right processing and sidechaining those melodic dubstep drops could be wayyy more interesting. One thing I also do relating to production that has helped me more than anything else is comparing my music to professionals. When finishing a track I’ll compare it to a professional reference and note down what makes the professional track professional and mine still fairly amateur in comparison. Not amazing for self image in the short term but holy shit it gets you to learn real fast, and I’d HIGHLY recommend it.

Overall just keep working at it man! You’ve got a ways to go but putting in the right effort will definitely get you there :)

[Agente.001 - Chronological Continuance]

I mean at this point I just don’t have anything else to say except holy fucking shit Agente

Also would you be down to collab cause honestly you have such a cool vision and style, we could probably make something pretty sick :)

[Derpcat - Faster Than Light VIP]

YESSS THIS GOESSSSS

Happy New Year man! Here’s to a great 2020 :D

DerpcatOfficial responds:

hope u have a great decade my bruddah <3

[Agente.001 - The Recollection]

Absolutely sick dude!

I need to comment for a second on your compositional sense because holy shit you really know what you’re doing. Every element is placed practically in the exact perfect spot, drop rhythms are absolutely insane and everything flows ridiculously well. A few tweaks to the mixing and stuff and this would absolutely be on par with professionals. The fact that you’ve reached this point after less than 2 years of producing is astounding and incredibly inspiring.

You have a great voice! My only critique there is that I feel like for such an energetic and heavy track like this the vocals are a bit too dark and don’t always feel like they’re cutting through the mix as well as they could. In the future when using vocals for stuff like this I’d use some EQs and compression to brighten them up a bit.

But yea that’s really my only critique for this. You’re incredibly talented man. Really excited for what you’ve got in store for us in the future!

[Talurre & Agente.001 - The Book]

Absolutely insane guys. So much atmosphere, so much emotion, and the drops are fucking massive. Both of you have a ridiculous amount of talent and you both should be incredibly proud of this. I absolutely cannot wait to listen to the rest of the album.

Agente001Tomhson responds:

Thank You very much!

[Discover]

Damn really liking the grooves on this one, and the foley work is super sick too

[Uxvellda - Ishvara]

Heya, nice track here!

Your orchestration and midsections are always super on point. Composition is nice and fits the theme you're going for for sure. I'm also really enjoying some of the foley details in these sections.

I still feel like your drops are lacking. The volume of the basses are sometimes wayy too quiet, the rhythms are really difficult to listen to cause of the amount of abrupt stops and changes in pace, and some sections REALLY need some sub. Remember, drops are supposed to be the highest energy points in a track and I'm finding that your drops actually have less energy than the rest of the track. In this sorta thing you really need to fill out the frequency spectrum, and keep it rhythmically interesting.

That being said, you're definitely improving! I think if you get these drops down it'll really take your music to the next level.

Uxvellda responds:

Thenkyah man! Slr. I will improve it!

["It's Time" - Jessie Yun]

I'm really happy that I've taken a recent scroll through your discography. Your work is phenomenal, and INCREDIBLY professional sounding. Keep up the amazing work! And congrats on the EMW feature, you totally deserve it!

JessieYun responds:

Thank you very much for such kind words, 3YEOfficial! Really means a lot <3

[Winterlude]

This is really, really, really, really excellent

The composition in this is like the tier above top tier and I am just in awe

I really hope you win this

stardew responds:

thank you!!!!

my chances of winning are slim because in order to even get a shot at proceeding, one of the final 4 would have to drop out so i could fill in. i'm not too flustered on it though because i'm really proud of this either way. :)

[DXZX - Great Journey]

WOW!!! This is some really really next level composition. I'd love to hear a full orchestra version of this. Absolutely beautiful work!

DXZX responds:

Yeah of course MORE comming soon 💓💓
