X-TERRORIST-X's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Last Supper]

Seems really scattered

To me it doesn't seem like you put a lot of effort into it. Like it was thrown together hastily. The noises also seem to be very random.

It was better in the beginning and than around the 10 second mark things just went downhill. Work on the organization brotha.

AJtheRipper responds:

I did do it very hastily! But thank you for the review I appreciate it guys!

[=Guilt and Ecstasy=]

Impressive.

Catchy beat and great variety.

Nothing could be better, this is great work.

Hades responds:

Good to hear, man, thanks! ;D

[_-={A Moment's Respite}=-_]

Beautiful.

One of the top classical loops I've heard on Newgrounds. The singing and guitar were both very peaceful.

Only problem is the looping. It's a noticable change from the end to the beginning. Try to polish that up, and than this would be a near-perfect loop.

Great work, and keep it up!

MaestroRage responds:

Glad you liked it! Truth be told I don't quite hear what you mean :c. I know the player sometimes comes in too early/too late but to me it loops rather well... at least most the time anyways.

Thank you for the review, i'm glad you liked it!

[Happy Level Music Seriously!]

Nice beat.

Not gonna lie, wasn't expecting much when I clicked on this song.

So I was surprised to find out you put some effort into this. Some nice variety and rhythm. Don't know what you meant when you said the end isn't happy level music. Sounds like the rest of the song.

Keep up the good work.

Rabspat responds:

Yeah, I expected that reaction with the name, haha. :P

I dunno, the end just doesn't really sound that happy to me.

[Rock Solid -Conker's BFD {SSF}]

Great song!

I love how it starts off one way and than it slowly gains momentum. Most of my favorite songs progress that way. Kudos.

While that was great, I still think it should have been shorter. For the amount of instruments used it stretched too long. Just my opinion, I'm sure most people love it as it is but I think it could be shorter.

Nonetheless, great work.

itsfoxhall responds:

Your lucky this version is shorter than the orginal cos of the file limits on NG :P

[-Cruisin'-]

Impressive.

Honestly, the variation in instrumentation is awesome. The whole beat is very catchy, and hard to find flaws in. One of the better loops I've heard.

Only thing is, it doesn't loop very well. Try starting it out with that same beat that it ends on. Would be perfect for a puzzle-type flash.

Some hardcore shit, keep it coming.

Phil responds:

Updated.
Should loop perfectly now.

Thanks for the awesome review!

[The ALARM Song]

I'm mad at you!

It was quiet at first, and I thought that I just had my volume too low. So I turned my volume up and than this high pitched noise rings out that wakes up my mom and now she's mad at me.

Other than that, the song was had a good beat and was catchy. Nice variety with the addition of a horn of some sorts at 1:46. Maybe try to add some vocals in the middle. Nothing professional it would just add another dimension.

Overall, not bad. If the sounds weren't annoying at time the score would be higher.

culmor30 responds:

Whoa, two people that LIKE it? It's supposed to be bad :[

[To eat my entire self]

All over the place.

Good for the heavy metal genre, bad for music in general. Pace was too fast and instrumentation didn't stay continuous for more than a second.

Couldn't understand what you were saying. Kinda creepy.

This type of music doesn't appeal to me, sorry :3

-X-

Fleshbag responds:

I understand why you don't like it but all you said is wrong, actually. Pace is quite slow when compared to Nile, Hate Eternal, Kataklysm, Origin... Instrumentation is pretty much straightforward, two riffs that are repeated a few times. You just need to listen to more music

[I'm Gonna Kill Santa Claus]

Good Piece

I wasn't expecting much out of this to be honest. After listening to it a few time's, I've realized it's actually better than that. The instrument's progress very well and the whole things blends good.

Singing could be improved, hard to understand at times. Than again, that's how most metal songs are. I guess I just don't like the whole genre in general.

Good drums, good guitar, good song. Could be a little better though.

giftedbuttwisted responds:

Thanks! But like all our songs it's just for fun. We weren't goin for perfect. I appreciate the constructive criticism =D

[Simply, i love you]

Gave me chills..

This song blew me away. With the composing done here I almost forgot I was in the Audio Portal and not Itunes. Honestly, I would pay for something like this.

It really made me start to think about things. Just kind of gave me that feeling. Hard to explain, really. It just did.

The peaceful beat in here would be put to great use in a montage. The whole feeling I get combined with some flash or video would be a fantastic combination. It looks like someone has already used it in their flash, I'll be sure to check it out after I'm done writing this review.

To wrap things up, thanks for bringing this amazing peace of composition to us here on Newgrounds. I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say that it's greatly appreciated.

No1r responds:

Thank you so much for your kind words, X-Terrorist-X!
This song was mainly written for the Yungjazz's flash Ep.IV. He asked for a 3 minutes, slow, mellow jazzy song, and this is what came out..
Greetings! :)
