ADR3-N's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Subsonic]

Sounds like a lot of minimoog. Your writing isn't bad, but the panning is odd -- like some 80's stuff. I really feel like the layers unfold too slowly. Your drums should be panned center. I'm thinking, where are the chords, etc. Also, the same drums throughout gets old.

Your breakdown at around 1:30 is just odd, also, to complement the tempo change.

[Pokemon Audition]

I really feel like your voice is a bit too low for the smaller pokemon. It just sounds off kilter to me, sorry. Usually hear boyish or female voices on those for that crisp non-falsetto sound. Other than that, your Blaziken is strong, and your Oshawott is nice.

BillyBean-VA responds:

Thanks! I have to agree with you, I was basically just giving as many as I could as shot, as the piece I was auditioning for needed specific pokemon.

I appreciate your feedback though, it really helps!

[Dot Dot Dot]

Excellent voice acting and funny pronunciations. Fantastic!

[Bobcatz (2016 Remix)]

Little repetitive, and there is a lot of redlining distortion going on in this mix, esp the drums. Try a master limiter. It's not unlistenable though. Kind of trippy. Keep hitting the mixer!

[The Nuvo Resistance]

The vocals are nice, but the instrumental doesn't really feel hip-hop to me at all. It's almost totally out of sync with the acapella at 2:30. I can easily pick out the piano preset -- lot of amateur mistakes going on here that need cleared up. Maybe I'm missing the point.

BurntOutOnlineMedia responds:

I'm glad someone really tried to "look" over my work and see if I'm capturing the right vibe. I have been needing someone to really help me find a sound and stick to it.

[Without You]

Beat is on point, but this probably belongs in olskool sylistically. The mixing of the vocals could use a bit of improvement too. It's not enough to cut noise. Probably want to clamp some chorus, compression, etc. onto it. It sounds really dry. Lyrical composition isn't bad by any means but could use more content. There's a lot of points where it's just the beat, no obvious reason for entry and exit, etc. Also, some of your stresses on the syllables sound unsure, like you're searching for the beat. Keep it up though. The first part of success is the courage to begin.

KeepingOnPoint responds:

Thank you so much for your input! As always I'm working on creating better content.

[Never A.M- Instrumental]

Sounds like Mixcraft instruments, those bells, tbh. Not bad stuff, but it could use some polishing -- modulation, velocity, more precise volume leveling, master limiting, and maybe some 808's thrown in. Your percussion kind of lays there too. Don't get me wrong, it's not bad. I can see the effort. It's just not perfect.

[chrome format_34 (instr)]

Now you just need some fat ass 808 bass under this. Interesting. Master limiting could probably help it along a lot too.
