Jebbal's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Chocobos!]

love this song

I couldn't think of where the tune was from at first, then I realized that the song is called chocobos. lol. I love this song, just one more nice addition to Newgrounds' remix collection I suppose. Keep up the great work mister audio artist! :)

EpicRPGRemixes responds:

Thanks a ton!

lovin ittt

Not much to say. Its awesome just like all of your other stuff. Well mixed, solid sound, catchy tunes. This is professional stuff! Keep up the great work!

[Re-Wind (Electro House Test)]

niceeeeee

I saw a few reviews you've left on my stuff so I thought I'd drop in and leave a few wewrds. I mean words. Catastrophic typo... no big deal. There'a TV show about making deals.

So this song is simple at first glance, or the equivalent term dealing with audio rather than visuals, but after listening to the whole thing it is clearly evident that plenty of thought and effort was put into making the whole thing flow and not get too repetitive, even for how short it is. In fact, I don't think I realized that the song looped until about the third time. That's how you know its got a good flow :)

Overall, a great track that I can definitely see being used in a movie or a game. Lots of style and feeling added into the simple beat with all the little effects and slight drum variation. I'd say you've achieved what you were going for here, sir! Keep it up! :)

YakovlevArt responds:

Hey, you didn't have to review one of my tracks because i reviewed yours. It was a pleasure listening and reviewing your tracks =]

(1st part of your review was irrelevant, lol)
Your right this loop is pretty simple, some may argue it's even empty. It was going against what i thought makes a good track to keep it so simple and empty. But you know in the end i fund what makes it sound so good, and really tricks to not make it sound so empty.
I'm glad you think it looped so well, i was hoping it would, but as stated in an earlier review, it ends on a strange point, making the loop awkward =/
Thanks for the compliments on the drums and variety, i tried to keep it new but not repetitive, as you said.

Thanks for the review.

[Heaven's Cries]

So this is industrial

I've always wondered what exactly industrial sounds like. Pretty unique! So in the middle of writing this review I saw that you mentioned this might not be industrial. Oh well.

Its got a good overall sound and could probably serve as a memorable track in a video game. That's what I see in it at least, I can't really imagine myself listening to this for the hell of it, ya know? And for this reason I propose that a more loop friendly version could be useful! Its got some catchy melodies in there with a good mix of pleasantness (to an extent, given the atmosphere) and uneasiness. I hope you understand what I mean by that haha.

In conclusion! It was a worthwhile listen and I enjoyed the originality. Keep it up! :)

Kirbyfemur responds:

Well unigueness is what i strive for, so i'm glad you liked it :3

I might try to make it loop better somehow, but that may be in the future sometime. Thanks!

[Triple Gear]

Damn it!

I've been thinking of doing a remix of this song for years, but now that I see you've already made such a successful version here on NG I probably won't anymore... Thanks :P

Haha awesome job, this is about as catchy as music gets! LOVE it!

[The Sky Looks On]

LOVE

Yeahhh... pretty much everything I said about your other song applies here. Wow, the two violins compliment each other so well. Perfect harmony! Like I said before, this would be an excellent choice for a game or perhaps even a movie. As soon as the song started I was instantly reminded of the older Zelda games. Like one of those tunes that play when you go into a small shop. You certainly have a knack for writing music. I've listened to a lot of your stuff in the last hour :) There's some sort of professional quality found in most of your tracks, and I believe it comes primarily from your writing ability. What else do you do in life that's music related? I could be wrong, but I bet you're not just another random Newgrounder submitting music!

Again, keep up the good work!

Epitaph64 responds:

Thanks for the kind sentiment. I'm not sure exactly what is my inspiration, so to speak, for these tracks. I took piano lessons between 9 and 13, but I never wanted to play the songs as they were written, and always made adjustments. This is probably because the songs in those books were dumbed down to be easier to play, so I would jazz them up a bit to be more exciting to play. Now, I'm taking computer science (of all things) in college. My blog about mainly programming stuff is here: http://validopinion.wordpress.com/

[A Simple Soul]

One line summary

Well this is your newest song so I figured it might as well be one of the 2 reviews I write! Unfortunately this is not my style of music at all, but I am never biased by my own tastes when listening to others' work. This is a very nice loop. Its simple, yet it shows off your understanding of how to make something catchy and memorable, maybe even invoke a little bit of emotion. I can definitely imagine this being used in a game. Depending on what you were going for here, it might be a good idea to extend it because I can see this song being played during some kind of menu screen. You know, something that might force the player to listen to the song for a while. Why not throw in a little bit of variation! Not a complaint though, the loop is great as is :)

Keep it up!

[Storm the Manor]

awesome!

i like it! nice overall sound, good themes throughout to portray action and warfare. what all are you using to make your music? i plan on creating more orchestral pieces once my other electronic projects are completed. just installed EWQLSO platinum plus :)

callitsleep89 responds:

Thanks for the review! As for what I am using, its a pretty simple set up, for this track at least.

EWQLSO Gold
Garritan Personal Orchestra for the choir
Reaper for DAW
M-Audio 61es for midi input

Good luck on your classical projects, let me know how they turn out

[Silly goose~]

hmmmm

Not bad, but its just way too slow. Bump the BPM up to 400 or 500 and I guarantee you will have a top 5 hit!

Technosaur responds:

LOL. Like that you took the method on your track and gave it to mine. But I will try at a faster tempo just because you said. Thanks for the 10, man.

[!/PiXeLaTeD\!]

wowwww

Another amazing song that is not receiving nearly enough attention here on NG. This is great, and the title does indeed look pretty spiffy with those wild capital letters ;)

Keep it up!
