SuperBastard's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[SGKR - Track 1]

Whoa, I really like this! It really feels like classic 8-bit and would most certainly fit any game involving Go-Karts.

I think the one weak link you have is that worble effect; it's just a bit too much in my opinion.

[OverTheGreenHills (8bit)]

Great work! I'm definitely getting a distinct feel from this track. Maybe I'm influenced by the title, but I'm picturing an innocent child frolicking in a vast green field on a warm, sunny day. You've certainly got the benevolent/relaxing sound down.

On the technical side, you did a fantastic job with the reverb and arpeggio effects. The track sounds deceptively simple, but only because you did so well blending everything together seamlessly. You've got a good ear.

Cheers!

8BitPICE responds:

Awesome review. Thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate it :)

[Irtorius - Thorn Inside]

This is pretty good! It definitely sounds like 8-bit, and I really like the portamentos you used.

The track is nice and simple, the saw waves make it sound almost nostalgic. It does feel a little sparse, obviously isn't always a bad thing for music like this. I'm not really hooked on the melody either, but that's just me.

Overall, nice work!

Irtorius responds:

Thanks :D
Yeah those portamentos does alot for the feel of the music, sounds a little stale otherwise :3
I only use 4 channels, but that's not sn excuse for making it sparse, but I just go along with the sound I like and I think it turned out good :)

[Thunder Monkey Punch]

Sounds good!

I'm diggin' this take on the old classic. I have a soft spot for the music in Mega Man X and it's good to hear that justice has been done to it.

[Action Cue 1 - Italian Job]

Solid!

This generates very strong atmospheric tension. I'm getting a hint of the Inception OST, which is great indeed.

I continue to be impressed, keep 'em coming, man!

bakeroflongo responds:

If you read the description, I used an idea and scored my own from one of the cues in inception. Just without using 32 french horns and 20 trombones

[Hallucination Menu]

Definitely pro

Your expertise is apparent. This loop is so rich with a variety of interesting sounds that it just doesn't seem to get old, despite its 31 second running length. I'm impressed, I tend to admire artists who can pull off ambient music, since there seems to be some aspect of it that I can't quite grasp myself.

Keep it up, I dig this.

bakeroflongo responds:

Thanks a lot! I'm not the best with ambient music, I normally write orchestral music with melody and harmony. :D

[Monopoly Jeff Ross]

Nice one

Again, a major issue in this is the mastering. The yelling at the beginning is painful on the ears and clips really badly, but other than that the song sounds pretty fuckin' sweet.

Buddy in the begininng is just a freind i wanted to make feel loved and said he could e our hype man
