Neophyte-Ronin's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Porn groove lol]

More Like Eat That Pussy

Which is what I'll end up doing before she would even THINK about sucking mine. Story of my life, incidentally.

Hey, don't take it bad if I take your song totally out of its initial joke context and use it for something serious, okay? I would never consent to being born if I was going to be a cock joke for the rest of my life, and I'm sure this song agrees with me. It's too good to be a porn groove track. It is urbane, though, and particularly gritty. I'd say a crime drama or postmodern noir setting suits this track much better.

Anyways, good job. If you leave metal, always write back and return with swiftness, because metal will miss you dearly.

[Challenge .45]

It Ain't NG

It happens to be people who fail to grasp genius when they hear it.

One vote and then it's 1.77? Votes fluctuate tremendously. Only those who routinely check back to individual musician catalogs actually give a shit. So please don't take it out on Newgrounds.

Oh, and after your intro, this reminded me of Megadeth's Hangar 18. Anything that reminds me of a Megadeth song and performs well besides automatically receives its deserving 5. It wasn't a spectacular ending, but nothing splashy is ever devised under a deadline. Excellent work overall.

[Ska idea thingy]

Ridiculous but Cool

Well, I am never into Ska but this might be useful. It sounds good and shows your ability to branch off from metal. Also, it seems like it can loop with some added adjustments near the end.

Of course, you should never hold back on the metal! ;)

[Eater of Gods - Eternalreich]

Name my Baby

Cause YOU ATE A BUNCH OF GODS, YOU ASSHOLES!

Kidding. No naming my babies, punks. I don't like the idea of raising Satan, Dragon, Lucy, and Cth'ul'hu.

This is MindOverMatt's chunky bass track that I STILL HAVE for some God-forsaken reason (because I love you twirps, that's what!), topped with frosty Eternalreich whipping sause and a sweet salad cherry. Of course, they had to go and slice someone's boner off, then chop that in half length-wise, to accompany this elder god sonata (an A B A of destruction, horror, destruction). In any case, everything works, even if the recording seems a little muddy and the drums are soft. Reich's guitar work overpowers everything, although suggesting otherwise makes me look blind to his whole idea!

Yeah, well anyways, uh... right. Hail Satan. And shit. Well actually, fuck Satan. Seriously. Asshole owes me money.

Eternalreich responds:

Name your baby Neostophiles-Xthanathulumadon-Krozmod ien.

You always leave kick ass reviews, good to hear from ya. Matt provides me with the raw steel that i use to shape awesome metal with. That fucker inspires me a shitton to up the par on my shit for sure. Gotta get my ear right on these mixes though. its kinda my downfall rightnow.

[-Orr- ST Conflict]

Agent Reno, With an Electro-Rod and his Wits!

While some say the guitar seems out of place and jarring, it isn't quite a classic piece, but another one of those Clancy-esque government conspiracy dramas. Yeah, it's like Broken Arrow, Enemy of the State, Paycheck, or Minority Report. The end clips off too soon, of course, meaning it can't be used in a game without further tweaking (like a fade-out), and then it's only useful in a movie.

It also reminds me of Turok II: Seeds of Evil, where Joshua Fireseed, aka Turok, first strolls through the Port of Adia; the piano got me there. Then again, the strings weren't as pronounced here as they were in the Port of Adia. Another soundtrack that comes to mind is Final Fantasy VII... the Bombing Mission. Rearrangements of that tune almost always include its relentless piano, its chief lure and source of tension.

Yeah, this can work for a flash. I still say you hold onto these and whip them out when a major for-profit animation team requests that you do... after you're in their ranks, of course. I do not like the idea of where my money will go if I don't pay you directly for the ability to use these tracks. See, the service that mediates your tracks would get a cut that's far too big for what those guys are really worth. Also, they might have some kind of fine print that removes all sense of ownership from you, thus you might be selling your soul if you take that route.

In any case, keep up the good work, and make sure you're justly compensated through the proper fashion.

[-Orr- ST Suspense]

NCIS Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs (in a sewer)

It's too bad these will end up in a licensing website. You're better off keeping them free for use, or better yet, copyrighting them so that you can use your discretion as to whether or not someone can use them and for what purpose.

This establishes the postmodern police procedural crime drama nicely. The end clips too soon, so you'll have to change that if you want it to loop correctly. The best suggestion I could give is to hold off on throwing them onto licensing websites. Instead, collaborate with a seasoned set of NG-dwelling designers and programmers, artisans and whatnot, and move towards conceiving an actual project that you can market, soundtrack included. Hey, you're worth that much in blood diamonds if you ask me.

Mind if I keep this around in case I need it?

[-Orr- Piano Sonata in G Minor]

Heat, But You Could Dance to It.

This is a lovely piece. I have limited musical theory knowledge to provide any hard knocks about how or where else to take this, so all I can say is keep up the good work.

[QoE Title]

Excellent Score for... well...?

So... when's this game coming out, buddy?

Bosa responds:

It'll be out sometime in the near future. The release date has been recalled, along with the trailer release. I'll still keep the public informed on the progress however.

[Just A Dream: Phase 2 (JAD2)]

You're Right!

Good God, I hope your 2006 work dies in a massive bonfire!

If you're really so self-conscientious about it, go ahead and delete it all. Seriously!

[Super Cars]

If a Super Car is a F.O.R.D., Then Maybe....

The "squeak" sounds destroy it. Removing those and rearranging the song should improve its quality considerably. Otherwise, it's bland and even annoying.

Post-Script: F.O.R.D. is not an American car. It stands for "Fucked-Over, Reconditioned Dodge". Many cars in Dodge's line-up have parts that are created in Japan and assembled in the States, if I remember correctly. They're far from being "Super" cars, since my parents have two '96 Intrepids in the front yard. The fact that they haven't moved from their respective spots for so long would pretty much support my claim.
