JackRocker's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Experimental Museum (FATMAN)]

amazing

loving that lead instrument, whatever it is(?). the use of guitar in there was amazing as well. pretty relaxing, considering it's going into a game about zombies. anyway, good work. 10/10, 5/5, fav'd.

NuclearStrike responds:

I'm aiming for more of a suspenseful, ethereal feel. Kinda like a track out of one of the parasite eve games. Not aiming for an adrenalin fueled thrill ride. Thanks for the review though, glad you liked it. Love, Peace, and Big Beat.

-The FATMAN

[CKC - Sub Conscious]

love it.

whether it should be classified as hip hop or not, doesn't matter. It's rap-able. and to me that's all that matters. the synth might make it less hip hop and more trance, but the beat definitely makes this a good track for rapping to. amazing melody, and great drum samples. great work.

CKC2009 responds:

thanks and btw no drum samples that my drums..

[Lights of Darkness]

holy shit

this was put together really well. everything sounded amazing. the mastering on it was so good that i honestly thought you'd just taken one of your favorite bands and uploaded one of their tracks. i was pleasantly surprised. good work.

mr-vincent responds:

Hahahaha thank you... And no, this is really me :p I'am working alone with my little guitar, cubase and reason :p

I liked this song a lot. Slow, calm, relaxing. I liked the choir samples really well. Didn't really care for the drum hit at the end though.

Calamaistr responds:

ah thank you :)
the hit was a means of closure i guess. :)

[Wannabe-Gangsta (DUBstep)]

sounding good.

the use of vocal samples was a nice touch. sounds pretty original to me. good work on that as well.

Zizmo responds:

Thanks, cant tell you how long I take in making sure each sound is absolutely perfect and different :)

[KurdStep (RAC4 Dubstep)]

sounding good

unfortunately, not knowing much about Dubstep, i can't really offer any constructive criticism on this one. but i loved the sounds this song started out with. sounds completely different from most Dubstep i've heard. great work, and good luck with the contest.
9/10
5/5

Aydin-Jewelz123 responds:

Cheers dude, ye it isn't your usual dubstep but I don't really know what category it falls under because it still has underlying elements from dubstep but also sounds different at the same time.

[Delinquent 500]

not necessarily my style..

the synths weren't exactly my style, but i gotta give respect for going outside of your normal style and doing something original. still, i expect more sampling in the future. i'm a huge rock fan, so if you don't mind me leaving some suggestions/requests, i'd love to hear you sample:
1. AC-DC
2. Chevelle
3. Angels and Airwaves

again, just some suggestions. can't wait to hear more from you.
9/10, 5/5

DJ-Delinquent responds:

yea i think this will be the last time i do i Fan number track

i dont enjoy it

[Starborne]

sounds great. the intro was a bit long, but hell, i listen to Angels and Airwaves, and they usually have 1-2 minute intros, so not going to complain much there. the instruments were great, great melody, and the drums were amazing(i'm a huge fan of drums, not sure why). i think my favorite part was that sound at 2:27. great work, keep it up.
10/10
5/5

R3dn4L responds:

Thanks for the review. I'm really glad you enjoyed it.

[Exquisite Corpse 2]

sounds great

my favorite was definitely the guitar/drums/vox. who did the vox, by the way? it really added to this. the guitar melody was badass, probably my favorite part of the song. i hope you keep doing these every so often.
10/10
5/5

Rig responds:

Bjra did the vox. And thanks!

[The Empty-Loathe the Ravishing]

love it

the beginning guitar sounds a bit like a more distorted version of Rob Zombies "Never Gonna Stop Me"(think that's what it's called). sounds great. loving the fast drums, and the guitar sounds great. my only problem is the transition at around 50 seconds. it sounded a bit off. otherwise, really great song.
9/10
5/5

SwareBear responds:

Hey thanks man, yeah, I'll have to work on the transition, it was a bit of a tempo change. I'm really getting sick of using all these effects though....I don't know if you play guitar or how much knowledge you have but I've been thinking of upgrading my head to a Bugera 6262
