JohnLeprechaun's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[BAZ - NES Core / Dnb]

Well

Each part sounded pretty cool by itself, but putting the loud, high-quality drums behind the soft, 8-bit sounds just didn't work. The concept seems pretty damn cool, but I would stick with regular DnB instruments for this one, because it would be a badass drum n bass track.

BAZmotherfucker responds:

The idea did seem rather badass at the time, but for the most part I'd have to agree, the contrast is just too odd x] but I'm glad I got this idea out of my system, and I'm glad you liked each part, because that counts for something.

[Kick Inget ( dubstep )]

Pretty good

It's well made, but I don't really like dubstep all that much. By the way, there's a genre for dubstep, you don't need to put it in DnB.

[07 - Clarity]

Haha

For some reason, I read the last sentence in your comments, "Nevertheless I hope you cry." Now that I have overcome that misunderstanding, I find that this piece is quite awesome. All the instruments were used effectively, and I could feel each nuance exactly as you intended them.

Fr0zEnPh0eNiX responds:

LOL.

Enjoy, cry, same difference right?

[TCP - Stormy Night]

Awesome

I really liked this. The only thing is that sometimes the sounds seem a little cluttered and busy. Perhaps a bit more mastering could really bring out the sounds individually instead of having them all competing to be heard. I really liked the sounds you used, and I hope that this is re-uploaded someday. It could easily be on my favorites list.

tijnn responds:

Thanks for the review, i know it sounds a bit cluttered, but with my mastering 'skill' as of today, i can't make it any brighter yet : )

Kinda new to logic pro still, but im glad you liked it!

[K-Dm|Zajed - Gone]

BFC Hat?

As in the Monster Energy product? Damn, that's a loss if there ever was one. Excellent song, by the way.

K-Dm responds:

nah not the monster energy one lol

but thx anyways haha

K-Dm

[Maculae Caprice]

Pretty good.

Very well arranged, I don't know how many hours it must have taken from start to finish. While the melodies themselves aren't really my thing, I can't deny you that awesome drum solo. Overall, 4/5, and 9/10.

[{CT} Incredible Demo]

Experimental is right.

I honestly don't know what to say about this. The individual parts were pretty well made, but when you put them all together, it just sounded... bad. I understand that the quality of the sound may have been toned down on purpose, but it just made the clutter seem even thicker.

[The Nintendo Concerto (Part 9)]

What?

Isn't the part after around 8:00 Pachelbel's famous song? That's certainly not from a video game. Anyway, onto the rest of the song/ All in all, the tunes were well adapted, and well played (whether recorded or digitally arranged).

[.:Z:.Impetus]

Amazing

Seriously, how have I never heard of you before? Your songs are amazing! The brass in this track gave me chills, and the energy behind it makes me wanna go do something, which is saying something.

[.:Z:.Running With Scissor]

Talent is there

All of these melodies and beats seem to come you as naturally as breathing, and that's awesome. Not only is it well composed, but the quality of the sounds and the arrangement are just hypnotizing. I think you're now one of my favorite authors on NG.
