I'm looking for DETAILED reviews. If you're just gonna leave something that says "It's good" "It's bad" or "Eh, it was alright" it's not worth my time.

Not how this works. You review the last song that was posted that asked for a review and then you'll get a review on yours.

how is that a review ?

What else do you want me to touch on, it's dance music. There's not much to be said for something that prides itself on minimalist philosophy and easily recognizable structure. You seem like a pseudo intellectual holding your nose high in the air attempting to apply pretentious banal nonsense to something that is absurdly inapplicable. I didn't realize I was posting on /mu/, but I digress. Maybe you should take a look in the mirror and seek to resolve where it all went wrong.

Perhaps you could have talked about what you didn't like in the track? Or maybe you could have covered other aspects in your review that aren't the smashed drums. For instance, instrumentation. Or intensity. Or atmosphere. Or specific details about the composition.


hey man, you uh you got something on your face right there, lemme just... ok, there we go, MUCH better, you are looking GOOD AS NEW

Maybe if you read the rules on how this works you wouldn't be in a tight spot. Music is music and every individual in this forum let alone Newgrounds itself is entitled to a well written review. Reviews for all songs should be written with more than just a 1 line sentence and instead given a nice little paragraph to go with it. You may not care about other submissions and how they are represented but on this forum everyone is trying to get somewhere with their music and I'm sure you are too. Only thing that remains to be answered is; How do you expect people to appreciate your music if you can't even take the time to critic on someone else's work without a single minimal interest? Doesn't matter if it's dance music or Dubstep, Trance, Rave, Classic, etc. Everyone deserves a well written review and if your not willing to cooperate then I don't know what to tell you besides this isn't the forum for you. Please be respectful of other peoples creations and take the time to write a well-written review. This is a forum that allows everyone to help each other, not a place to act like a total dick. Thank you.

Oki well just need to give some helpful advice right now. When your done reviewing the previous song and you want to put your song up for a review, remember to add the link to it in picture as well. I see a lot of reviews with just the link. Simply remove the http:// from the link and just leave the www. to show the actual upload.

For Example;

Wrong -> http://www.newgrounds.com

Right -> www.newgrounds.com

Please also remember to review the previous songs as well. It wouldn't be fair for you to get reviewed and the person before you not. Thank you

I liked this song a bit but not really a fan of the Dubstep genre yet a good works well done.

I've reviewed this song:

Not to be a bummer or anything but I think that people should be more open on here. Like I don't mind if I get a good or bad review on my stuff. To be honest it helps me get better with my music and learn from my mistakes. I just think that people should work on their critic skills. Again I don't mind if I get a good or bad review but I'd like people to be more open minded and specific on details. If you just write " This song was okay but needs more stuff" I won't know what your trying to point out. Please just be more specific on your reviews and give it more thought and looks to it. After all, if someone gives you a good long review with detailed explanation on the wrongs and rights they deserve one alike. Please just consider giving more detail to your reviews.

I strongly agree with you and I cannot at all deny that I havent been lazy or careless myself. We can all admit it because its true. A few pages ago I believe I got a warning or something, dont remember. But I deserved it because I was just too damn lazy.
I am not calling you out and I dont want to cause a scene, but I remember when you reviewed my first submission here on NG. You wrote a review similar to your own example of what we all should avoid. Again, not calling you out.
The thing is that people want to be noticed and self-advertising on the forums is frowned upon, unless it is on the r4r or whatever. But since were all self-centered I dont think that any effective change will happen in terms of how detailed the reviews will be.

Im just waiting for the backlash...

Yeah that's just the thing. We have artists that already have a good amount of people following and they are pretty known but they don't give out good reviews. Then there's the new boys and girls, trying hard to get noticed and writing a bunch to help out others and themselves. It seems that way and it's just not all that fair. It's like you know you have something good and you expect a good review from people but end up getting a single line saying " Good Job " -_- It's upsetting...
