"Meh."

I loved the black and white ol' skool micky mouse style animation. I also thought the plot of the cartoon was funny too.

But, the music got wildly annoying after a while and I thought the cartoon's pacing wasn't that great (could of spent more time with Darell considering it was titled after him) And the cartoon just seemed a little longer than nessacary overall. But other than those things not too bad.

"Power Lvl: 9002 dicks!!"

There were some funny moments but I actually found it extremely average. I thought the art style was too bright, happy, and colorful for what the happened in the cartoon. Combine this with the music and the whole thing doesn't really fit, which is sad because the cartoon's premise and what happened was very good I thought.

That's not to say that the animation and music was bad. The animation was very good, but inapropriate to the concept. The music fitted the concept, but not the art.

Other than that it was quite good, and I was entertained throughout.

Score: 8

"Only two complaints"

submission: FAUX: Chapter I

1) Voice acting would be such a HUGE improvement. I know you wanted it to be graphic novelish with the reading. Don't get rid of the text either, just have people reading over it and that would make it near perfect.

2) I had some issues with the styles..like how big Redge's lips were..I thought it just looked bad..even though every other part of her design was good.

Other than those two things, it was amazing, original, creative, and, most importantly with a graphic novel, interesting. Love what your doing, its a great way of getting your comic out there. Impressive. Nice work. I wait in inticipation for the next chapter.

"Curious..."

submission: SMG - Ghostly Galaxy -

Definitely a song for the intellectual minded. It makes excellent background noise for thinking or working on something.

The waltz like style was very cool, and something that seemed very unique to me. The two piano parts was also very nice, and the bass line added something else unique to it that made it just modern enough, without being "too revolutionary". The strings were also nice when they came in and were very fitting.

However, it was not perfect (this in no way means its bad!). The main melody was familiar. Whether you changed a famous classical song, copied, or came up with your own melody entirely it sounds EXTREMELY familiar. This makes the song predictable to the point where it ruins the song after a while. Well - not ruins. But makes its re-listen-ability less. This is something no musician in the right mind should want.

Some mix ups in the melody, and maybe a brief part with electronic drums and a tempo speedup (drums and tempo change at the same time of course) would perfect the song. Again, the melody is not bad. But it is predictable. And this makes the song boring after awhile. But other than that there's not much else to say about it.

Well Done.

"Seriously....?"

submission: Wyze - Tribute to Mickeymao

The jokes aren't funny. They're pathetic. The song is annoying. The voice is irritating. And the constant repetition of the synthesizers caused my head great discomfort.

All in all its pretty awful. Honestly. This is not being harsh or overly critical. You putting this song on newgrounds was an insult to the good music that is uploaded.

This song (if you can call it that) reminds one of a kidney stone. Painful and disgusting, but it brings sweet relief once its finally over.

Score: 8

"Just DANCE!"

submission: Booming Track- RAV3N! RMX

date: December 15, 2009

I can't honestly say that it was revolutionary or shockingly original, but I'll be damned I enjoyed it.

Its happy. It has a thudding base. It changes enough to stop from being ridiculously boring. Its good. You should be proud of this.

If I had to criticize anything it would be just this song is extremely similar to other songs in its genre (dance/techno). The fuzzy synths and thudding base are in no way a new thing to electronic music. That being said, there is a reason that they're used so often.

One last thing worth mentioning. The brief rap segment was great. That's what pushed it into "top 5 worthiness". That IS something I haven't heard too often in this genre. The rest of the song may be common place but that one brief moment wasn't; and it amazing.
