JohnLeprechaun's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[it's a unix system!]

Perhaps it's because I've never been able to do it myself, but I highly respect artists who can pull off a good chiptune, especially one with such character as this. Great work.

Oh, god. The breakdown at the end was just perfect.

tilman responds:

MAN! i know what you mean. it's funny though, since i actually
thought, that this song didn't feel authentic at all!
glad you think otherwise :D

thanks for leaving a review!

[The Colline Gate (8-bit)]

Started off a bit rough, I thought, but it grew on me quickly. This is good stuff. :)

[Bloop Waltz]

Very artistic. I feel like this should be the background to an artsy independent animation. Very well made, and it keeps my attention.

[Justice Day: Recording]

The first time I heard this was probably over a year ago, and it still gives me chills every single time I listen to it. An epic story plays out in my mind without fail. I don't really have anything constructive to contribute, I just wanted you to know that I thoroughly enjoy this.

[Unfinished House]

Neat! The chord progression was creative and natural sounding, and all the sounds were pleasing to the ear. I really love the subtle strings in the background too. It gives the song a nice full body.

The only thing that bugged me was that the buildup fell into another mellow segment. I understand that this is unfinished, but I was all ready to dance and then I didn't.

As for words of wisdom, I'm not sure I have anything for you except to finish it. You seem to have a good handle on what House music should be like, and you're clearly skilled with whatever DAW you use. If you're wondering whether or not to continue with this foundation, you definitely should.

Directinput responds:

thanks! Wasn't to sure if anyone would like the strings lol

[~NK~ "Red Flag" (prev)]

The composition seems good enough, but the sounds are very grating. I'm essentially useless when it comes to such terminology but it sounds like the cutoff on some of the envelopes is insane. Sounds good otherwise, though. I'll keep an eye out for that game.

[Haywyre - Encompassing]

Wow, this is great. The rhythm really kept me hooked.

[~NK~ VS TI:. "Amity"]

Fuckin sick.

Keep this shit up, dude.

TIMarbury responds:

for sure bro

[Spaze Unofficial - Late Night]

Awesome!

This style is really edgy and catchy! It reminds me a lot of the style of Cazok, another artist on this site. The structure of the song is unusual, but in an awesome way, and the sounds are very well made. You get a 5/5 from me, good job.

[Morrowind [Ocarina]]

Alright.

Well, you've proved to me that you can sound out songs. I don't know if we're supposed to think it's a real ocarina, but I don't. Taking that into account, it's an unadventurous and boring track. If you had been playing live instruments, then sure, this would be impressive. If there had been any kind of accompaniment, I'd give you some props. As it is, though, I fail to see anything particularly interesting or exceptional about this.

Ocarina-Kid responds:

I don't really understand what you're getting at but believe what you want man, doesn't bother me. This is the internet after all.
