ADR3-N's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Two]

You've always got the best kicks. I could trip to this. Nice atmosphere.

1:30 threw me off, though. Could just be that it sounds like a rubber band pluck. It didn't mesh too well with the rest of the song until the very end. I can't tell if it's a triangle wave or a ramp or what. Might try a ramp or pulse with a little grit to it. Maybe it's just my ears. Still, I enjoyed the listen. You've got some skills, and it's good to see people cranking out new tunes. :)

Thank you !
I spent some time on this one too.
The song i'm working on now is very different.
With your advices, i think i need to work on it harder ;)

[Happy gay zombie]

Love that sample, but it sounds more like "melancholy gay zombie" to me. Could use just a tad of a pick me up in tempo if you're going for happy. Subtracting half a star for the abrupt ending. Other than that, great tune. The bass is throbbing in my ears, possibly lending to hearing damage, and it's amazingly catchy. Would liked to have heard more hints of the sample throughout, and possibly more whooshy transitions. Nice work!

EdKempeper responds:

Thank you very much for this review !
I didn't spent much time on this song, so it may explain some of the defaults you pointed out...
Your advices are very clear ! i'll keep it in mind for my next songs !

[Revolutions]

Instant classic for me the second I heard it in 5th grade. Saved it and played it every single day for almost 10 years and it still hasn't gotten old. Your arpeggios are amazing.

[Warmth In Orbit]

Gets a 5 for the odd meter and groovability. I like the different minor chords to each ear, blending to sevenths and ninths -- or that's what it sounds like. The melody around 1:15 is infectious, as well. I could listen to this for days.

However, it isn't perfect. At times, the melody feels a little glaring over the background, if you're going for full relaxation. It's hard to make relaxing sounds in chiptune though, so I respect you for that. Anyway, it's a very minor complaint. Doesn't affect my listening. Great work!

[Choir Part]

Well the 14 seconds of this I heard are good. Would be great if it were fleshed out more.

[Titbread - Bass Jump]

Videogamey sound, but the scratchy percussion isn't really satisfying to me.

[Subways]

I'm getting an urban beach feel. Calming stuff, definitely!

[Urban Dawn]

Pretty nice, relaxing loop! Doesn't loop perfectly though, sadly. Percussion feels just a bit too edgy for me. Just the snare, really.

[Titbread - Dr mailorder]

Super minimal. Sounds decent. I'd give a higher score for more than 7 seconds

[Tensitune]

It's alright, but there's a lot of distortion going on. Tame those frequencies!
