SonicJ's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[LoL - Nocturne]

I'll start off by admitting that I have never had the desire to play LoL. The final work you presented is ear pleasing and should be used for future RTS games! This round of voice work consisted of lines from an existing game and you did really well! With that in mind, I challenge you to write your own script and figure out a good setting and atmosphere. Had I played a game consisting of your voice work I would have thought "Hm. AAA video game quality announcements" and had thought nothing more of it! Cheers!

Thank you very much, very appreciated.

[The River of Souls]

Your description of the song gave me the vibe that you're uncomfortable with this genre or not quite ready to submit anything in the category of Drum and base. Hearing is believing though, and this sounded nothing like what you led me to expect. This is a pretty unique work! I like the eerie, grimy, and suspenseful mood you set with your use of synths and misc sounds. From beginning to end everything blended together rather well, and made for an enjoyable listening experience! I dare say this is a song that I would add to my library and listen to constantly! Good job!

Xertec responds:

thanks.

[Loopy Techno]

Really good song at it's core; this song is a really great base for starting out. Considering this is one of your first songs it is impressive. The percussion needs attention when it comes to mixing. Volume, panning, and other effects can change the final sound for the better. Re-verb, for example, can change the kick from and dry single to emulation of a real kick in many different settings. May I recommend finding some (legally) free kick samples?

[FNG's Trance Collab MixDo]

Pretty amazing collab!

Everything flows so well together, it honestly sounds so fluid! 5/5 10/10 + download :D

Each song is simply amazing.

Omnivore responds:

Thanks! My submission to your collab will be done soon too.

[D&BC (Lizard Part)]

Drum and Bass community project- :)

Thank you for your submission! I'm both excited and grateful for it!

I liked the spacy "flying through clouds" atmosphere set by this clip. The drums are crisp and clear, the piano sets a nice soft vibe, and the lead instrument is catchy! Good work!

eatmeatleet responds:

thanks dude, good luck with the project

[3AM (DUBstep) NG Cut]

It's hard to find this variety of music

This is well mastered, well put together! I'm doubtful I'll run across another song using egorapter samples. I'm impressed! 5/5. 10/10, fav + download.

Zizmo responds:

Thank you for being so knowledgeable enough to appreciate good mastering :) <3 Just an amateur in my mind still! Cant wait to get it professionally done ;)

[Destroyed [...]]

Good remix

like mentioned before, the voice work is ducked behind the instrumental a bit too much. The instrumental is really good though :)

alertG responds:

you can listen to a more recent instrumental at: soundcloud.com/

:)

[Dot Dot Dot RMX (Finished!)]

Haha, pretty good!

The instrumental is really great, and when mixed with the voice track, it has a light hearted comedic feel. Nice job!

doppler73 responds:

What's wrong with it though, what is the 8 for?
