Adam-Beilgard's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[LR - Dream]

Well done

FINALLY some through-composed music here. This actually sounds like it was pulled off the readio waves, and not made for amateur flash artists! Great job.

Setu-Firestorm responds:

Well, I'm not much of a flash artist. I've only dabbled in it, but I haven't completed anything that's been submitted here. I mostly focus on music, but I have been composing for well over a decade, so I've had plenty of time to get good at what I do.

Thanks for the review.

[Guitar Challenge - Bad Man Inc]

Rock on

Did someone say Guitar Hero V?

....I could've sworn I heard someone say Guitar Hero V....

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Hmm, I think that one is being saved for Metallica. First there will be G&R I think, then Metallica. Then they should have a Metaljonus bonus level, that would be impossible to beat. That would give all the fat kids strokes. haha.

[Now You're a Hero instrum]

I'm conflicted

Honestly, I loved the folk sounds this evoked. When I heard the original version (yes, I discovered these out of order) it was nothing like I envisioned.

I guess it's my job to keep these two separate in my mind so I can enjoy each in its own role. Great job, though.

Reachground responds:

It was very interesting to read your thoughts. I've just added this to Newgrounds. I guess it's a strange experience for people who hear this first.

Did you try the game that the song belongs to?

[Now you're a hero]

Funny

I love the tongue in cheek storytelling!

Reachground responds:

Awesome!

Thanks for the 10 :)

[NG Podcast Theme Contest Song]

Short and sweet

Like that girl on the highway, I'd imagine....the drums felt a little off at times, however; their fills not quite in time. But that's hardly noticeable when you're bopping along.

Good work, \m/ (btw, where's the thumb?)

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

The fills were in a different time signature. They ARE a bit off time, but that was intentional. Thanks for the review!

[Subliminal Energies]

Stereo Separation FTW!

I agree, this is much better with headphones. nice choice in the voicings, there could've been more contrast for my tastes. After about a minute, I like to hear something new, or think that it might change direction.

Otherwise, good work!

AvatarKami responds:

Thanks for the review. I would have liked more contrast and variation but there were only so many loops to use ^_^ . Hopefully FL will help me with variety.

[(::Let me Explain...::)]

That was pretty neat!

It had just enough to keep busy and not too much that it would weigh itself down. Some of the low end drums sounded clippy (or was that just an effect?) but otherwise "That was pretty neat!"

FatKidWitAJetPak responds:

Cool, so you think the originality was neat or the whole entire thing? Well, thanks for the compliment. =)

[Rig - 3:34]

Smartass! 8p

(and for those scoring low, 4'33" = 273 seconds; -273K is absolute zero, when all matter and possibly time stops)

Rig responds:

OMG TAHTS DEEEEEEEP

[I Shouldn't Fall In Love]

Very nicely done

Not gonna write an essay, just say good job, vocals were a bit out of place and everything else that's already been said.
All in all a very high quality submission, good work!

jnry3 responds:

Thanks, Adam-Beilgard!

Well... wasn't able to find a vocalist that will fit the song, so I had to do it myself. I agree that there would have been a better suited singer for this piece, it's just that it's: a) hard to find, and b) not for free. ^_^

Thank you for your review!

[Mythic Ambiance - Shen]

The great thing

About this piece is that it evolves at it's own pace. Too often I see artists force something to happen because they're worried about 'hooks' and 'time constraints'. To me, that's unnatural - so for you, congratulations! 10 stars!

Shenkhar responds:

This was a project I worked on for a while... when I was learning how to use diffrent effects - as well as learning how to master music properly. Thanks for the review!
