J-N-R's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Death Rise]

Nice.

You sound like James Hetfield! (If that's you singing)
The quality of the guitar recorded isn't that good. But your skills are pretty impressive. And the drums kick some ass too.

Are you recording threw your amp with a microphone? It sure sounds like it. Not that it's bad! It's just when you record with microphones into your amp, it's hard to get a 'close up' and 'low end' feel.

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Glad you dig it. Yes it is me singing, and thanks for the compliments.

The guitar is supreme quality, direct recorded from my line 6 pod x3 into my line in. The guitars are layered. 2 tones left and same 2 tones right...played 4 separate times.

Perhaps you aren't listening on quality speakers. Or just have different tastes. Its all good. Thanks for the review!

[captured god - 4 - air raid.]

Nice percussion

The Percussion kicks ass! I don't know if I'd consider this classical but... I wouldn't know where else to put it.
I think some of the "effects" get a little loud sometimes, but I do have my headphones up moderately loud so I don't miss anything.
The only thing I would suggest is putting some really quiet strings in the back fallowing along with notes. But I am sure if it would match because the song isn't
really based off of notes (in my opnion).

Calamaistr responds:

Its moreorless movieesque scene put, the scene this would play is a airraid while the boy runs around on the fields, the boy then believes they are attacking the giant.
Kindof different realities etc during wartime. (this story plays during the end of ww1)

The percussion is actually from a ethnic drumkit's instrumentation. :)
I like it myself alot and will use it more in the future.

Normally i do not use loud effects, in fact i always have my volume alot lower on whole tracks because im more of a classical/accoustic loving person, i cant stand amplifyers and nightclubs :P
But i made an exception for this 'score' style.

[~Igloo~ (Obsideo)]

Awesome

Extremely relaxing. Nicely put together! I never can get my tracks to sound like this. It's hard to explain...

Nice work.

4/5

Obsideo responds:

Thank you!

Self Esteem + 10

[xKore - Magnum (FULL)]

Awesome

What DAW did you use for this song?

xKore responds:

FL STUDIO 9

["Gearing Up"]

Excellent!

Awesome cinematic sound. Did you use EWQL? If so, what edition?

BrokenDeck responds:

Gold Edition.

[Away And Gone]

Volume

Good beat and melody. But the gain is to high. The glassy effect amd the claps are good good but the "kick" rumbles way to much. (Yes, my headphones are flat-frequency)

Other then that, this is solid. Nice work.

BMKikiBeats responds:

thanks

[External Harmony]

Good Melody's, Bad Instruments

This song can be twice as better with better VST/i's. You really got a piece of work here. Very good progression and the piano is amazing.

What program did you use?

MrDAI responds:

Well, I use FL Studio 9, if that 'helps'.

[-ganon95- Summer's here]

Great job!

In my own opinion, it is pretty plain. I can't suggest anything because the song is made and it sounds fine, just not to viable if you catch my drift. But Techno isn't really my genre. I do happy trance and classical music. So I shouldn't be writing a review on techno music :P

4/5

ganon95 responds:

thanks, its not meant to be complicated tho, its simple and sweet

[The day that never comes!]

Haha

Lol. I laughed :P

You should make some metal songs, you got a good sound.

hadesrage responds:

thank you sire!
