ADR3-N's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[One Winged METAL!!]

It goes back and forth...

On some parts, I like the other version better, due to tempo issues, but both are addicting in their own ways. I like the heavy guitarwork on this over the other song, though the other stays more true to the melodies and doesn't seem so over the top with all the samples. Don't get me wrong, I love it, either way, but they just seemed off at times. Anyway, great work. :)

[Tantalus (FF9)]

Silly.

I always thought this song was very whimsical, even for an FF song. You make it sound both evil, sneaky, and hilarious. Good job!

5/5, fav, download. =D

viion responds:

Thank you! :D

[Cloister of Trials"Remastered"]

Sweet. :)

It's pretty haunting, to be honest - brought back memories, really. Is that a metal pad I'm hearing, or just my imagination?

Also, nice avatar. Fang is positively smexy. I approve! Anyway, I really like the song, despite the percussion, specifically the jingle-bell shaker, which sounded fake, getting on my nerves near the end. The rest of the song was very nice, so bear in mind that I'm not complaining. It sounds very real, other than that, and I'm a huge FF fan, so that's a big compliment.

Nice job!

[Dead Alive Song]

Sounds ambient . . and really, really creepy

It's sounds like you said, "I slobber on all the weiners," and "mix syrup fertilizer" . . I might animate to this. It honestly made me burst out laughing. XD

[Kickin' Back]

Not bad, but the bass is squalling....

Yeah, my only problem is with the bass. It's got way too much sub and no EQ to back it down any. Multi layered EQ will help cut that out. Anyway, not bad for such an underrated song.

[My First Rock Demo]

Umm....

Well, I felt like I'd do this song justice by giving it a well rounded review to balance out the last one a little. I'm going to be honest here though. This kind of sucks . . a lot. It's not entirely crap, but way too synthy. The drums in the beginning were the most bearable part, to be honest. Try not using synth guitars or bass, they generally sound like crap. That's just my opinion. The end was pretty cool though.

That was wack... yes.

[(M) -Guitar shreddage-]

Tabs please. :)

It's a nice song, other than the cheesy synths and all. I'd prefer a score, so I could do this on piano though, guitar arps aren't really my thing, evidenced by my previous submissions. Anyway, after a while, it gets pretty catchy. :)

[Robotic Reich March]

Cool

It sounds like fun to play. The name fits well; good work. :)

[Rehabilitation]

Would do well as an album intro

My only complaint is that the quarter notes keep dying out during the chorus. It's best to use whole notes in place of repeating quarter notes. It would probably do better in classical, unless you had electrical guitars going. It sounds pretty good, other than that. Good work!

Hend responds:

Indeed the notes do die out but I thought it gave a nice 'oomph' to the rhythm during that section. I also wondered how it would fare in Classical but found most of the stuff there was significantly softer than this. It might be considered too 'heavy' or too 'rock' for there, but I could be way off, heh.

Thank you for the feedback and I'm glad you liked it! :)

[Photophobia]

Hmm... Tranquil

Despite the part around 0:30 with that glitchy synth being a little nerve wracking, I very much enjoyed the song. The breakdown around 1:20 was pretty cool, leading back into the weird chorus, which didn't annoy me that time around. Like on a lot of your other songs, I love your bass line synth.

Still, EQ'ing out the static would be nice. You did a good job though. It doesn't bother me much at all. :)

KI1 responds:

If it was difficult to notice, this was supposed to be my second attempt at 'Fear of Light' but meh. I dunno what came over me to use that synth, it just sounds... crap as well as having issues with the delay and reeverb on it :/
But yeah, I'll have to remember to do some EQ'ing in the future :P
