Neophyte-Ronin's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[{B.A.B.} Lynness's Theme ~WIP~]

Needs Polishing... or a Guitarist

A symphonic metal track usually requires some collaboration with an actual metal musician before it can shine. But I'll offer input:

The drums are a little repetitive.

The rhythm guitar is unmistakably digital. While it's okay as is, I would suggest that you collaborate with one of the regulars in the portal. If you don't need an insanely complex lead solo, I recommend Bad-Man-Incorporated, both for guitar work and for help in mixing the sound (sounds muffled).

Voted 5 and shot you 2.36. Zero Voters are harsh when they don't read your comments. Perhaps a good chunk of the mess with them can be resolved with a campaign to end child illiteracy.

blackattackbitch responds:

Thanks dude, I needed that advice. I'm planning to collaborate with a metal musician after I finish the rest of the track. Regardless, I want to do the best that I can on my own before I finish this track. And I think the muffled sound might be a result of me using a tad bit too many instruments to compose this and not enough EQ work. (I went melody-crazy hahaha)

Man, if I can get a good guitarist and a good drummer on this though, my god, this song could be epic.

Thanks for the advice, this is the exact kind of guidance I was looking for!

[Serial Bastard]

Influences are Obvious

Someone's been listening to a lot of Gorebastard.

BERSERKYD responds:

Nope never heard about that... Its only in my head ! I'm a freaking bastard sometime :P

[Seventh-Metaljonus]

Interesting but Not Stellar

I've heard better shit.

From you, of course. This is just a test.

Might be a track to a game, given some editing....

[We Blind (Bad Man)]

Finish

Seriously.

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Ok dude. Also, I have vox for xeno's new thing...just gotta polish them up.

Thanks man.

[Attack of theSlurpers of Death]

Good God, Why Did I Listen to This?

What the fuck is this, anyway? A porno soundtrack?

This was so gratuitous that it made me burst at the seams. That microphone is shit, though. I suggest redoing the song, Gore.

[Grinded up for Pig Chow]

UUUUURRRRGGH!

I feel like a total shit, but no matter how long I've listened to this track (it's that stellar), I still can't decipher the lyrics with any real precision. Thus, I must ask you to post the lyrics. Again, shit.

This track would make an awesome music video on Newgrounds. I mean, full-length music video, with theme and setting and animation totally fleshed out... so to speak. It might sound like an insult, but you haven't changed much over the years, Gore. That would only suggest that you're doing something right!

[Poonanny Pringles Tube]

Better Than Africa Dudes

I've heard one guy compose a rearrangement of the main Legend of Zelda theme song with a Heineken bottle. I believe his name is Mattias Holmgren... one of the suckers from OCRemix.org. This reminded me of that... just not on the same scale. This works well as a loop for a cartoon, so I rate it high on that basis.

This short clip also reminds me of prehistoric-like caveman music, akin to primitive stone-knocking societies. It is my understanding that this song rocks on its own. I still get the nagging sensation that the sound quality could be better, but that's just being nit-picky.

What are the odds that if I go visit Bad-Man's profile I see a revised version of your song, Dependency 2010?

['10 Ryu versus M. Bison]

Cinematic Tribute

Holy Shit! OCRemix Material!

You could definitely try something like this, only not the same track here--make another one--and clean house with the finicky judges at Overclocked Remix.

EvilRaccoon responds:

Hey Neophyte, was an OCRemix?

[Romantic Insanity]

It's Rough, it's Fly, it's on Fire

I just had one.

Maybe several.

I can pick up a biker babe with this tune.

Stay Metal.
