ADR3-N's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Nav- Kirby's Mirror (idnb rmx)]

Good

It needs to be a bit louder. I could barely hear the melody in the background. The drums are a little too loud. I think you did very well with it though. :)

The drums are a bit repetitive though. Distortion would be a good idea to employ on them for a bit of a crispy effect. Classic bass line btw

Nav responds:

Thanks for trying to be helpful, but this song is quite old. I'm a whole lot better now :)

[** \Guitar Challenge - So]

Sweet soloing!

This is a really nice track, but it'd be better with real bass. Good work!

Sonofkirk responds:

Thanks a lot : ). Sorohanro made the backing track so I'm not sure about the bass, but I can assume that the bass wasn't real but it sounds good :P. Thanks a lot for the review :)

[**\ The Sleep Pt II /**]

NICE!

You should make more pieces like this. This is awesome. I really like it. It's metal, but it's also very melodic. Good job, even though I heard a few wrong notes on the part of the rythm guitars and bass (not really noticable once you get into it) and the transition to the piano part was a bit off. Nice drums by the way. I'm hearing some pretty funky (in a good way) rythms here, and some evilness (which is awesome), yet also an overall upbeat feel.

This is a definite download and favorite. :)

Awesome job. This sounds professional, keep it up!

Sonofkirk responds:

Yeah your are the first who notice this, but the bass line is totally fucked up :P. I'm not very good when I have a bass in my hands, the strings are to large lol. Though I don't think that the guitar was off :P.

About the piano part, I hesitated to include it in the song since this part is ternary and the rest of the song is binary :S. Though the chord progression was nice and fitted well the next guitar riff, so I put it.

Thanks for the good review, I appreciate it a lot : ). I guess I'm going to review some of your stuff :P.

[*(\Devn/)* Driving Madness]

Good

This is really good, and I think it deserves a higher score, but it's too short! Try making longer songs! Nice drums, but the kicks near the end and in the beginning don't need to be so loud, they disrupt the rest of the sound. Nice job on the looping by the way.

Keep it up!

Devn responds:

Short, i know, lol. ran out of ideas for it i guess.

[*(\Devn/)* HotLava]

Cool

I think you should have used less flanging on this. It distorts everything and makes it all mash together. I still like the song, but the flanging basically nulls the bass. The melody is great though. This sounds really cool. Some better EQing is definitely in order though. I was really getting into it at the end. Why'd you make it cut off like that?

Devn responds:

thx for the info!
Ill use this on my next song!

[My Sweet Techno Song]

The beginning makes me want to rave, lol

Good song. The only problem I have is that there isn't enough percussion to really DRIVE it. You'd expect a cool song like this to have a driving beat to it, not a lazy kick and hi hat wouldn't you?

MikeTaylor responds:

I like it lazy. I don't think every song has to be driven by insane percussion. Thats more for drum and bass.

[Tetris Song]

Sweet!

You got some chords a little wrong and the tone of your guitar was a bit weak, but it's still pretty cool. Nice work!

MikeTaylor responds:

I wouldn't say that my chords are "wrong", just different. I decided to go against the traditional way to not make the guitar sound too jumpy from chord to chord.

[** \ The Sleep Pt I / **]

Very nice!

Your guitars don't sound fake and synthetic, they sound as good, if not better than mine! Good song, I can't really see any major mistakes anywhere, and I can't hear static either! Great work!

Sonofkirk responds:

) Thanks a lot for the review. Check out my newer songs ; ).

[Satan's Opera]

Good

This is good, but the vocals are a bit on the bad side. The bass also sounds a bit fake. The guitars are pretty well done. Nice drums. They're totally heavy metal worthy.

Thanks
