jnry3's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[DarkEcho]

Should work in a horror or drama flash

'Nuff said. Keep it up! ^_^

ShaggyWang responds:

Well thats a thought.

Thank you !!

[FlyingSolo]

I didn't feel it...

...and by that, I meant I didn't feel like I was up in the clouds.

If you were trying to go for that "adventure up in the skies" feel, keep the drums, add a bass line that runs along with the drums, and keep the high-pitch instruments thin.

If you were trying the "floating" feeling, remove the drums, use cymbals only (light taps only; heavy crashes give the feeling of disorder), and play with panning and, again, keep the high-pitch instruments thin.

Hope this helped. ^_^

ShaggyWang responds:

Point taken and thank you for the review

[Yummy Muffin ft. Cyril]

Awesome!

This is just mind-blowing and downright amazing! It's perfect! Cyril did a kick-ass job with the vocals as well. Awesome, awesome stuff! :-o

Rig responds:

It just REEKS of muffiny goodness doesn't it?
Thanks for the review! :D

[-=LJC=- Syncopata Ritada]

Soothing... I like!

Kinda has that Acid Jazz feel into it. Groovy and relaxing at the same time, without a hint of getting me bored, even after 3 reruns.

Is there anything wrong? Can't find any. Length? Nah... I can loop it and it's still chillin'.

Awesome groove! 5 and 10. ^_^

LJCoffee responds:

Thanks jnry3,

I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed this track!

[I see clouds and stars.]

Needs a little tweak at the EQ

Maybe a little nudge off the overall EQ treble (+2dB at high frequencies... I'm guessing at around 10kHz) will make those high-note keys (I want to call them "star bits") come out. The star bits are hiding (or rather drowned) behind the bass (which is very deep and full-bodied). Just give it a try if you have time.

Hope this helps. ^_^ Nice piece, by the way!

attemptedperfection responds:

Thanks much for the review!
I did a lil eq tweaking, and it seems to have helped out quite a bit with the clarity... see, I have weird speakers/headphones, so frequencies are difficult for me... it takes playing it on a car stereo or something to realize what needs changing. Too bad I couldn't tweak it before the contest deadline... ah well. :/

[Cardboard Fish]

Nice, but...

...there's a lot of off-hits. Annoyed me, actually. But no worries... it's easily fixable with practice.

A nice piece to listen to, nevertheless. :-) Hope you can make a cleaner version.

Oh... there's also some background high-frequency static that comes in everytime you play the guitar, FYI. ;-)

FrozenSheep responds:

Its my crap amp.

[Moby Dick Cover]

Now that's the sh**!

...if you only had better recording equipment. But I like the raw appeal of it, and it's a live recording. If you got the budget, try recording this in a studio. That would be cool. ^_^

MittT responds:

We're on it, dude!

Seriously.

Our guitarist's dad has access to a studio for free.

[Rig - Our Secret]

No wonder I didn't join MAC...

I knew I'd hear something like this. Incredible piece. Never felt boring at any part (which most pieces fail to do).

It feels awesome listening to -- relaxing and rushing at the same time.

This should belong to the top of MAC, hands down. ^_^

Rig responds:

Lol, thanks! I won't get my hopes up TOO much, but I'm glad you enjoyed it :D

[Mega Man X2 - Flame Stag Stage]

Mix is treble-y...

...and it sounds very thin on my Sennheisers (which means it'll sound thinner on other speakers).

Try adding bass to the final mix's EQ. If that doesn't work (which, I guess, will be the case), tear it apart, and boost your bass guitar (it's hiding).

Other than that, it's a great cover! ^_^

DarKsidE555 responds:

WTF!? D:

All others audio artists I showed it so far say it's much deeper than before!? >:/

Fucking mastering shit. D:<

Ah the hell with it! lolz. Thanks for checking man!

[Here I Go Again (Acoustic)]

It made me reminisce

Heck, I got a Whitesnake CD back at home, hehe. The concept of an acoustic variant is cool.

Can't sing? Well... you tried, that's good enough. A whole lot of people won't even dare sing. ^_^

2.64? Well... from observation, some of the folks here: 1. do not appreciate covers, and 2. do not appreciate singing.

Me? If this were any other song, maybe I'd vote 3. You caught me with the "special" factor, so you get an extra 2. Got it up to 3.09.

Practice your vocals, and try to sing your heart out -- this helps. ;-)

Naitzmic responds:

Whitesnake rocks! ;D

Yeah, I don't reeeaaally care if I sing well or not.
It's just fun to do so some times.
If it sounds "ok" then great - if not, then that's fine too.

Oh and thanks alot for the vote.
