ADR3-N's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Thing]

One of the best written vocaloid pieces I've heard. I'd love to see a tutorial on how to get this lilting, portamento going on. I'm having a bit of a hard time understanding the consonants.

Also, the wet heartbeat sound was a bit weird for me. The vocals sound a bit centered in comparison to the rest of the track. Could probably use a little stereo widening. Nice work!

steampianist responds:

Thank you for the review.

[Sexual Education (Update)]

Beginning is kinda repetitive, and I feel like your kick is sort of buried in all these subby frequencies. Could use a little more clarity between the rhythm, the accompaniment, and and the lead. Writing is good, but it seems very over-reverbed. Would have appreciated more percussion. Snares, hats, etc. Good as a concept.

ConceptSama responds:

dont worry m8 its still no where near done it may drastically change lol concept

[Feminist PPG HIM]

Good impression, but could really use FX on it. If you hadn't said so, I'd never have recognized it was HIM.

grimview responds:

What kind of special effect would you recommend? I was thinking of using Audacity's "echo" effect with very short delay.

[Oh Mama Hey!]

Beautiful presentation. Poppy without being disingenuous. This one is going on my personal playlist,. I really, really like it. There's not much critique I have minus the snare having a couple frequencies that stick out here and there, perhaps needing a bit more compression on the percussion, and perhaps a little loose tuning on the acoustic guitar.

Great, great, great! <3 I'll be singing it.

Please, run full speed ahead into this genre, and never stop. You own it. :)

FinnMK responds:

Thanks for the kind words. I hear you on the snare - I can never seem to get a 100% perfect snare tone. As for doing more folk rock, eeeeeeeehhhhhhhhh...we'll see. But good to know I don't suck at it!

[Re:Reveris ~ Vocal Ver.]

How pure and honest and expressive. I haven't gotten around to leaving a review on this so far but will continue to study this to do it justice. Let me just say, the writing is inspired. I think you and I know by Whom. :)

Troisnyx responds:

Yes; I'm just grateful to the One who inspired the writing right now. <3

I cannot begin to imagine the effects on the people studying this song to remix it, or even on you -- but take all the time you need; I anticipate your take on it!

[Play it, Sam...]

This sounds more like R&B, but I'd love to hear an extended mix of this. Beautiful. :) Only wish it were longer.

EdKempeper responds:

Hi !
Thanks for your review !
I'll do a remix of this track one day (maybe).
I have not so much time these days, so I mostly do short tracks, that's why it's not a long track ;)

[Hallucinogenic God]

This reminds me of that DeadMau5 ad for his masterclass. I'd love to see it expanded! That being said, it's a bit low-mid heavy and I feel like that's crowding out your percussion a little. Good work!

EdKempeper responds:

Thank you for this review !

Yes, another short track so I didn't spent a lot of time on the mixing part... The snare is a bit too low, and the main synths are too loud.
I'll try to change that on my next tracks ! ;)

[african accent voice]

A mix of authentic-sounding without being over the top, interesting, and funny. Probably the best faux-accent I've heard in a while.

Thank you very much for taking the time to listen to my take thank you.
