Kingbastard's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[LHM - ENDLESS HANDBAG ('98 NG)]

Sweet.

I've never heard this tune before, being relatively new to Newgrounds but I have to say it's very funky. I like the vocal samples they sit very nicely with that underlaying bass buzz. Shame the guitar loop is so lo-fi, it would be nice if that was cleaner and higher in the mix. The arrangement in this tune is spot on and everything flows really well. I would like to hear what sort of tunes you are making nowadays if this one is as far back as 98.
I checked out your profile and saw your credentials. Why not check out some of my tunes and give me your opinion. Nice stuff.

[Danger uncut]

No sound!

I tried uploading this track yesterday but got no sound, same again today i'm afraid. Don't know if it's my computer or your trk. Try uploading it yourself or re-submitting it under a different name. Cheers for your reviews. Much appreciated.

philjo responds:

[Yours Truly!]

Yes!

This tune is sweet! Can't think of much more to say! Congrats on making A-bots list. It shows that u have put more time into writing this tune. Everything is solid. I'll be amazed if this isn't used in someones Flash submission. I'm playing this so loud at the mo it's making my teeth rattle! Good Shit!

Rucklo responds:

As allways, it´s good to hear from U, Bastard! I sure hope someone will find this tune usefull in some flash submission! U sure that´s ur teeht rattleing?
Congratulation yourself on making it nr.1 this week :D Good on ya, U REAAALLY deserve it, man!!! I´m ´a write u a sweet review :D

[Land of tha Lost]

It's good...

....but the sounds used are a lttle flat and could do with fx on. The beat is a little too quiet and needs to be brought higher up in the mix and varied. Overall, it's a quite a moody sounding tune, that could get even moodier with the introduction of the right components. A nice phat bass sound wouldn't go amiss either. Good job.

[Friendly (SongLooping)]

nICE!

tHIS IS VERY FRIENDLY ON THE EARS. i LIKE THE DRUM STEP COMING IN AT THE MID POINT OF THE TUNE. a SWEET LOOP.

Rucklo responds:

thanx, man! I picture this one being used as some kind of peace-treaty, in a not so distant WW3 :D

[DJ Runaway - NAS4]

fUNKY cHICKEN...

...i'VE SAID IT B4 AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN, THIS AINT MY PREFERED STYLE BUT THIS TUNE HAD ME BOUNCIN IN MY SEAT! i CAN SEE THIS TRACK IN THE CHARTS. sHAME IT'S SO SHORT. eVERYTHING IS IN ITS RIGHT PLACE. i WOULD LIKE TO SEE AN ANIMATION PUT TO THIS WITH EVERYTHING GOIN IN TIME TO THE BEATS LIKE 'wALK sMASH wALK'. nICE ONE FELLA.

DJRunaway responds:

:D Shall I upload the complete version? I dunno, it's done :D I think I will release it tonight or tomorrow!

[Ondestoryd]

Yo!

This has a kinda oldskool prodigy feel to it. Those rave sounds are fuckin cool! The drums are nice and phat but they seem to lack the hi-end. Some fast hi-hats would help to bring the drums into the forefront of the mix. I thought it was ending....what's this? Nice breakdown, I was hoping for a different riff though. Those orchestra hits are good, but a bit too overused. Good shit!
Have a listen to some of my tunes and see what u think. I reckon u should check out my track Beatbox(C'mon Chris) and pls feel free to leave a critical review.

philjo responds:

Thanks for your review, some nice constructive critisism and plus points. Im really proud of the score for my first musical submission! thanks very much..im checkin yours out now

[Tropico Loop]

well....

...the sound quality is great, very crisp. The loop is ok, the funky organ is nice but not much really goes on. The addition of some bass would help.

Mars-Hill responds:

cool man, i'll probally finish it and put it on again : ADVANCE VERSION!!! lol

[Jungle Spice]

nice

Very crisp production. Minimalist in arrangement. Kinda a cross between radioheads stuff off amnesiac and aphex twin. Simple yet effective. Could use some more, A fuckd up beat a nice low hum of a bass sound and a bit more variance. Like the panning. Good stuff.
