jarrydn's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Rave Of Unhealing]

not sure if i'd call this techno. sounds a bit more like hardcore. i can't really say that this song did much for me, the mixing is rather muddy, and i can't seem to grab on to any kind of structure. the melodies are a bit too disjointed for my taste.

Hikari responds:

it was a shit mix, not even going to lie. They dont have hardcore as a genra btw. Its the song of healing from majmask backwards. Its a BEN thing. It was more of a joke then anything els, but im regretting not mastering it now xD

[JB Remix(preview)]

[Eric Freeman - See You Around]

it wasn't bad

enough for me to actually want you to leave, but I think that the name you've made for yourself has given you an overblown sense of your own ability.

You get 3 stars because it wasn't constructed from duplo loops, and there seems to be a structure of sorts in there. you payed some attention to the stereo field with the panning clicky things, and it even sounds like you tried to work some harmony and melody in there.

you lose points for a lack of anything that captivates my interest, a fairly unpleasant kick drum that dominates the entire track, the grating and unimaginitive side-chained squarewave "lead" in the background, the awkward sounding tom fills, poorly mixed low end, little to no evolution in the percussion, poor choice of snare drum, nasty crash, no dynamic range whatsoever, little consideration for the overall mix, and it sounds like a massive cut and paste job.

I'm not normally one to criticize, but after talking yourself up hardcore in your news post, I think I was expecting a bit more than this.

EricFreeman responds:

I didn't talk myself up in the newspost. I was trying to show why I'm sad I was leaving this site (I've since changed to just not uploading anymore songs).

I'm completely self taught everything music related so I honestly barely even know what "harmony", "melody" and "dynamic range" mean, let alone how to use them in my music. Instead of being so critical you could have been more helpful.

Although all in all, I guess I can respect you for being an asshole to my face instead of behind my back.

[(ICTL) You Can Turn To Me]

very cute

Love it, reminds me of the stuff Squarepusher was putting out before he went off the rails :).

I've only heard this on my laptop speakers, but the melody and the rhythm is awesome. Love two note bass/lead harmonies :). Like what you've done with the break at the end, and the little arpeggios in the background!

Awesome work man, looking forward to the EP!

midimachine responds:

thanks man! the thread about "hyper music" got me inspired to re-release this old stuff.

i need to do more of it cause i don't i've ever felt as happy about a bunch of my songs as i do these five.

swagga

Sick wobbles dude, reminds me of Rusko.

Really tidy man. I'd maybe bring the snare up a bit, but besides that, this is pretty gangsta dude ;D

Triented responds:

Thanks a lot broski! Cheers!

[{dj-N} My Mind]

nice one

I quite like this one, if I were judging this'd be on my short list for sure :)

Love the vocal break at 2:00 as well. I'm not usually one for this kind of thing, but it was very tastefully done :)

Good luck mate!

dj-Nate responds:

Thanks for the review
