ADR3-N's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[One]

Mixed pretty well, with some cool old conventions like the naked claps and offbeat bass. It's a simple, atmospheric groove that would fit well in a risky platformer, a run and gun, or a laid back set. Amp up the kick and subtract a bit of reverb, pump the bass, and distort that antsy lead, and you'd have a pretty nice club banger. :)

EdKempeper responds:

Thanx for your review !
I tried to do my best with this one. I was influenced by a french DJ and tried to
do the same things with my own means.

[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. :)

EdKempeper responds:

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 !

[Somebody Else - SG]

The perfect fifth vocals on the chorus sound like satan, and sounds like you can hardly carry a tune. Please actually sing your harmony or pitch them by hand when they get out of the chord. You might even want to invest in autotune. Bass also sounds absent.

SergentGetz responds:

Cunt.

[screwing around with ramm]

Jesus, please tune that guitar and fret more solidly. Decent first though.

raving2thegrave responds:

were it not for this review, i probably would have forgotten i uploaded this. and looking back, boy am i ashamed that i did

[V2 Bear Fight]

Great chord progression, and the stringy synths remind me a lot of 007 Goldeneye soundtrack. Could use more hi-hats and cymbals though.

djdizzle01259 responds:

Sure man, I'll work on the cymbals in the future, and thanks for the advice! :p

[Forest of Giants V2]

Sounds great, if not a bit much reverb. Could use just a little more mastering. Overall, pretty solid composition. Gets a favorite and a 5 from me! Now if only it were available for download. Excellent trombone sounds going on, too. Keep it up!

DSykMusic responds:

Thanks for the review!

[Reticent [Sample]]

Loving the calming sounds going on. The disjunctness of the song overall requires one to relax while listening. Sounds like an odd meter. I really, really would love if this were a loop, or if it didn't end so suddenly. Maybe play with that portamento-sliding synth a little more, especially the falls. Great atmosphere!

Keep up the good work!

bwmusic responds:

Thanks. Actually its just 3/4, but the drums get knocked back a quarter of a measure cause of a little anacrusiss. Planning to continue it (perhaps add guitar or sax), but just tossing up a sample

[Umbrella]

Percussion sounds more DnB than techno, but instruments seem to be staying close to home. Good work. I like the progression.

TeraVex responds:

Thank you!

[Keep me Hangin' On V*Experimen]

Nice! Sorry to see you got yourself a spam review. Not sure if the vocal track is copyrighted or not, but it's a damn good track, except for the as mentioned lowered vocal track.

JBeat2k9 responds:

Hehe.. It happens man. Thanks for voting this a 5! I really appreciate it!

The vocal track is copyrighted, but due to the terms in the creative commons license, which is what I've released this on, I'm allowed to use it for non-commercial purposes. I haven't, nor will I ever receive a penny for this remix.

I'll be re-rendering this track with higher quality, louder lyrics as soon as I can! Sorry that they're so quiet! xD Thanks again, EDM364!
