Deathkavaderva's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Eternity's End]

i have to say this....

All your tunes are classic. They are soo good i feel like ive always known them when i only discovered the audio portal last month. This one is fucking epic i don't think you need any more encouragement but you ARE the greatist ap artist and that's kinda annoying. I think i can just download any of your stuffs with out listening cause i am confident it will be awesome.
You have the potential to be remembered, man. Get your name out there!!!!!!

me again

bit too muddy (get rid of some low frequencies or turn it down) and cracked but, pretty nice
Can you reveiw mean machine by me plz? I would be grateful.

[++< Far Away >++]

very good idea

BUT you need to fix up some parts.
GOOD::::\
The background sound effects were a very good idea
Pretty good idea for the actual music
Had some emotions in it
BAD:::::/
Some of the sound effects came on and left too abruptly make it more subtle
Bit too simple lacked complexity. Soften the cello a bit at the start too.
In the section with the drums the snare and cymbal stuck out too much and I'm not sure if they were 100% in time (maybe ad a snare roll somewhere?)
The solo violin too piercing sounding
In the drummed section the sound was thin needed some more voices make it fuller
Lacked some form. After the drummed section it just dropped back to what it was like at the start when it should have intensified.
All in all this idea has enormous potential just improve those parts I mentioned. PM me when/if you do another version I will check it out.

Decerto responds:

Thanks for the comment, i'll try taking on board what you've said and try and make the song better :)

[Ninja Warriors Redone]

getting there!!!

Definite improvement from samurai hills and still a lot more room for improvement as well. The voices at the start were too noisy and cracked a bit. Also the sections sounded random and did not join together very coherently. The drum pattern seemed to only consist of a single tom sample played at crotchet intervals.
I have a piece of advice as well. You seem to have composed this in less than a day between now and when I reviewed samurai hills. Spend more time (like, a week) on it and extend it like tellin a story cause my ideas I submit without spending much time on do shitter. After doing this come back after a couple of days and if it still sounds good then you're ready to go. It also helps to force your friends and family to hear it first in case they have some ideas. (only the smart ones)

[Samuri Hills]

review 1/1

I was looking for the shitest ambience on newgrounds for no real reason and that is why i am listening to this 0/5 piece. Ummmmmmm...... I'll try to write something decent in content. I take it that you are completely new to music technology composition and just figured out how to use basic mixing techniques? Um.. I don't have much to go by here but I suppose you have potential (if you want REAL shit, try listening to Soul March by me (my 1st song)). I can hear a full version of this in my head and it sounds alright. Are you using pentatonic scales cause u should if you want it asian sounding.
Now for the actual review.
The melody is ok, I guess, with some minor changes. But you should add a bassline in the same guitar like instrument to make it interesting. Add more instruments like strings or voices or flutes or whatever you want and definitely some percussion like asian style drums or gong or some shit. That is, if you want to make it a full song. I advise you to because right now I am sorry to say I think it has earnt its 0. If you do, be sure to have plenty of variation in your parts and sections. And give it emotion.
Anyway those were suggestions. Hope they were helpful.

nice

Had a good beat and unusually the repeditiveness didn't get on my nerves. The sound effect of muffled screamin in the bg really gave it atmosphere of emptiness. Reminded me of walking through a grey ghost town where the buildings are wrecked and everyone is dead but I didn't really care.
Well done.

[Helix - Origin]

niiiiiiice!

HELIX, you do REAL industrial. This is the best industrial I have heard.

Helix6 responds:

Thanks, I will try to keep it real in the future.

[!Rampage!]

"Eeh..." (end quote)

Wasn't it just the same thing over and over and over and over and over again? I think you probably did not put much effort into this.

[[Kriz] - Frozen Breath]

not bad

Had one foot in industrial the other in dance/techno which is not a bad thing in itself.
Had nice drums. I think the drums made it more industriallish with out them it would just be dance or techno.

[.wrench.]

very atmospheric

would have been really fulfilling if it had some variation near the end. Nothing drastic- like instead of having B, f then e flat all the time have b, d then c.
