crud's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Future Looks Grim]

good, but has faults

First off, this drum and bass stays true to most everyone's idea of drum and bass. you had tight loops and CRAZY beats that were off the wall.

the only thing i didn't agree with in this song was the over-distortion or overall trashy sounding quality. maybe that was a musical choice, but for the listener it's good to give the ears a break and hear some more variety and rising and falling volumes. basically, just work with silence and breaks.

Other than that, cool bassline, very dark melodies and nice use of the FL fx. keep it up

Ineptitude responds:

the bass was intentionally fat and distorted for that, as you said, typical DnB feel. i'm all about the beats. :) i wasn't really trying to push any boundaries with this one. thanks for the review.

[Kiddie Game Title Song]

fun and catchy

i liked the overall cuteness of this one. especially when the voice doo doo's came in with the xylophone??? anyway, fun track, it looped perfectly!

mostlyharmless2k responds:

Thanks for your comments :)
I think that voice Doo thing was built into the xylophone, but in the lower part of the song, you can't hear it.

[I Hate Bass]

whoopty shit if it's the wrong genre

what an interesting sample ;) very solid trance song and it reminds me of that Blade song. keep it up. yah!

Zevobrox responds:

Thx Crud, the song you might be referring to is "Phat Bass", ya i think it sounds like it, i am glad you like my other songs.

[Trust Me]

yeah! vocoder!

Is that you singing in the vocoder? if so, How did you record the vocoder singing? i really like this song. it was a little empty in terms of a creativity. but you have on your hands on some very cool club music and utilize it very well. next time just spend a little longer on adding different elements and melodies to add more of a flavor. awesome work.

Zevobrox responds:

Thanks for your review, ya thats me singing, I have a vocoder program and i put a price of cloth inbetween the front of my mouth and the mic to prevent excess input, I apprechiate your input, i put this song together, in about 1.5 hours, I didn't know what else my song needed thats why i put it on NG and get people like you, who are Awesome enough to take time and listen and give feedback on what i can add, Thanks for your review it was really helpful and keep a lookout in the future for a remake of this song, i also encourage you to check out my other songs if you are able to. Thanks alot :)

[Game Over Techno]

ha! that was cool

i listened to the original you did, and that was alright, but i prefer more techno and then i heard this. haha, awesome, the strings, the arpeggiating filtering thing. ooh and i loved the slowing tempo, no one really utilizes changing the tempo and you worked it very well. nice mix.

Fadeliss responds:

thanks man im glad you liked it, im getting better at remixing and making music and maybe someday ill get famous or something.

[Perturbation]

cool

your voice sounds like the guy from smashing pumpkins. but yeah, you do lose the pitch every now and then.you could just use that thing that cher used with her voice.hahaha. but seriously, nice jamming, good sound and i'm sure you're a good guitarist so keep it up. also, this was a REALLY good recording, usually it's shitty quality. PARTY ON!

CrunchyGuitar responds:

Thanks a lot dude. The funny thing is I own a good vocal/instrument dynamic mic, but I use the one on my comp. IBM is some nice stuff.

[Moonlight Sonata Twist [loop]]

that was neat

very short loop so it might be little to noticeable in flash, but still, very good choice of music, i love that song, and nice mix.

Pilot-Doofy responds:

Thanks, I tested it out in my latest Flash and the loop is perfect! Absolutely seamless. I'm really proud of this one and I'm glad you like it.

Feel free to use it if you want.

[Change your socks]

yow!

this is awesome! how did you make this song, what program did you use? it had perfect timing for the drops and length of repeats. i LOVED the way the beat rolled in with the beginning. the scratching was perfect too. fucking awesome, you've got some quality beats on your side!

Tub70 responds:

I use Acid pro 4.0 for all my songs, I'm glad you liked it.

[SpookyLoop]

oh man

yeah, this is really spooky sounded. i imagined it being used in some sort of zombie movie as the part when the zombies slowly come back to life. nice work with the dying pitch sound, very interesting

Xiety responds:

That Sounds Like Something This Would Be Used For. Thanks For The Ratings, Man.

[Chillaxation]

spacy !

I like this one dude! very transcendent. it sends you to a whole new state of mind. and very cool instruments. that pad thing came in a little too strong compared to everything else, but no harm done. awesome stuff. possibly flash worthy. for some sort of slow space travel scene

DJRunaway responds:

:) :D :)! Thanks! :) Also made when I was stoned...I love to live in Holland!
