ADR3-N's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Mᴀɢɪᴄᴀʟ ꜱᴘɪʀɪᴛ.]

Not bad for a first! I think you could do a lot more with it. Only rating low because it's very short.

If you ever need music resources, you can check out my profile. I try to do my best to help independents as much as I can.

Anyway back to the track, you have a solid lead riff. It works fine. I think you could have taken a basic song structure you found on the internet and broken that down (like say what happens in a chorus, usually all the instruments are in and so on, whereas on a verse you might just have the percs and riff)

You can take that knowledge and apply it here to your track to make it more interesting and dynamic. Don't let that fool you into thinking you didn't do a good enough job. This is your first music! Keep going and I have no doubt you will go onto great things!

Интересно! Классик рок от тебя совсем не ожидала, но это не классик рок а что-то другое. Может быть поп? Жанр конечно есть -- просто я не очень много знаю о нем, чтобы конкретно назвать. Все равно делает меня немного счастливее, слушав трек исполнен тобою с моими семплами. Обязательно ставлю ссылку в описании на него.

Есть одна вещь -- возможно просто не могу слышать, но на слух кажется что только один семпл для каждого барабана выбрал, тарелки, хэты, малый и басс барабаны итд. Библиотека была предназначена для того, чтобы возможно было скопировать все семплы одного типа из папки через драг энд дроп, чтобы представлялось больше вариантов velocity, артикуляций итд. Но вполне возможно, что я просто плохо слышу.

Рада что пак тебе понравился. Трек и понравился мне! Делаешь треки в невероятном темпе. Не знаю что еще мне сказать, кроме что в том же духе продолжай!

Спасибо за отзыв! Да, так и есть, просто я всё-таки делаю электронную музыку в жанре EDM, а тут такое. В следующий раз я буду тщательно использовать FPC в FL Studio, который позволяет загрузить несколько сэмплов для каждого отдельного звука

[Dangerous Amounts Of Cherry Dissolve Melatonins Just Got Taken]

I can totally relate. But usually I'm staying awake doing music when I shouldn't.

I appreciate the energy, or lack there of, that I can hear coming through. Also, you could maybe throw this in Dance or something. It sounds like perfectly normal music to me. I think of like, avant-garde, when I think of Experimental, and on NG it's kind of a throwaway genre, like misc.

Mix could be better, but the 808 is where it's at

["afmci299621]

I think it's in the right category. Breakbeat falls pretty much into dnb, and you got the standard basses and so forth.

Only thing I'd recommend is watch your reverb wet signals. They sound both long, pretty loud, and like there is a constant resonance. I think you can accomplish a lot of the effect you were going for by limiting the use of reverb, hi-passing the wet to 250 hz, and using pingpong delay. It seems to create an illusion of even more space.

Also, you could really use to throw some mastering compression on here. The waveform of this looks like a premaster, and your breaks are fantastic. They absolutely deserve the royal treatment <3

[zima]

Wow, you're really cranking out tunes. I'm always shocked at your output and the relative quality.

I would watch for clipping on the mix, as I hear some. Otherwise I literally have no complaints. Great synthwave track!

G2961 responds:

Спасибо большое! Да, есть проблемы с миксом, а то есть барабаны, например, приглушаются из-за басса и синтов, но я это исправлю. А так спасибо за отзыв, действительно было неожиданно увидеть твой отзыв :)

[Cataclysmic Decision of the Decade]

I'm not sure if this belongs in hip-hop or not. I think so. One thing I would suggest, study a bit of youtube university on mixing levels of drums relative to leads. I would like to hear more of the snare and the kick.

Writing wise, this is pretty fire, and I'd love to hear you revisit it :)

[SKY GARDEN]

Mmm, here from your news post. That 808 sent me right over here to give you my 5!

I think overall the track could do without the EXTRA hard brick wall block -- look at that waveform, and some cleanup here and there with the low mids, but I understand you were ultra pressed for time! Amazing work considering!

[02. Alone]

Coming here because this track deserves more love. An absolute vibe.

No real constructive criticism because I have to do life things, but I just finished your EP and left my reply in the forum. The most I can say is that I would look at the wet signals of your reverbs and probably hipass them to 300 hz or so, and I may remove the little what sounds like vinyl clicks or cracks throughout. If you enjoy that, ignore me about removing them, but think about making them a bit quieter. There's nothing in the high frequencies really to make them fit into a wider canvas, imo, so they should be a bit quieter.

EVLanche responds:

Noted, thank you for your input! I will keep that in mind for the future :D

[night dream]

В основном, трек хорош. Слышу и понимаю сразу, почему ставили на ФП. Ответ на твой вопрос -- что менять. Я бы уменьшила громкость звуков воды -- кажется что это капли воды слева и справа. И тажке будь внимателен, чтобы не очень часто те же самые сэмплы повторять, если они легко узнать. И это все. Думаю что кроме них, все ровно сидит в миксе. Тщательно ты выбрал остальные пресеты, модуляции, параметры сайдчейн итд. Возможно я бы делали мелодии чуть погромче, но было просто класс.

Продолжай!

G2961 responds:

Спасибо большое за отзыв! Хорошо, я постараюсь учесть эти ошибки в дальнейшем.

[Eptic - Propane (Seven Chakras Remix)]

I think this is more midtempo than synthwave, but nailed it. Despite whatever mixing deficiencies -- studying some professional mixing and mastering will help you there - I like this version better. In general I think the 250 hz and below of the bass would do well to be centered, the bass come down just a bit, and snare come up in the mix.

this was from 3 years ago, a bit late for that type of feedback lmfao
