John-Gaden's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Main Atraction]

Awesome!

This really is an awesome piece. I honestly can't find anything wrong with it. I feel like I should be in a carnival or some other really cheery awesome place... Gold Saucer. >_>

race1 responds:

lol thanks. TO tell you the trutyh, it reminds me of one of those party games where you're at a main menu or a mini game select menu....

I can just imagine some happy voice saying something like "Main Game!" or "Select a mode!"

[V00 - A Hero of None]

Neat.

There were a lot of great ideas in here, but I think they weren't executed as well as they good be. A handful of the wood-windy instrument's notes sounded really dissonant, which you might've done on purpose but I thought sounded odd. This seems like it would be a really great mellow track, but the instruments seem to clash with each other in a lot of places. The first 14 seconds or so were my favorite.

Vortex00 responds:

Thanks for the feedback, I'll have to come back and work on it.

[Hard Style Sex]

Epic.

Really epic hard style. Would've been great if you had chopped up and played with the pr0n samples more though.

[Gangsta Ass Shyt Main]

Hm.

I don't know whether this was made in satire or as a serious track(doubting it) but Noize is already a genre of music. Government Alpha and Venetian Snares come to mind.

TeDdY-BeAr-Junktion responds:

N***A THIS AINT NOISE ITZ GANGSTA ASS NOIZ

[Rose At Midnight]

Wow.

I don't know if its you playing guitar, or if you've just written the part. Either way you have a real talent for composing catchy lead lines. Really well done.

NemesisTheory responds:

i've arranged it in FL Studio (the notes etc), but it's not a real guitar at all! :p

you think so? thanks a lot :D
i'm glad you liked it! :)

[If I Were Animated]

Very cool.

I initially thought this was going to be a mellow, piano-only track, but the change at 50 seconds in was really nice, especially when the melody came back in. :) The piano solo needs work though, it just seemed too all over the place to be interesting. I also really liked when you dropped the delay from the melody for a few seconds. Overall it's a really good piece. Oh, and in my opinion, you might want to drop the bass on the kick drum a bit.

tehpirateguy responds:

Glad you like it.

I must admit, too much bass is a usual problem of mine, Ill be sure to fix it before this comes out on CD.

[Ode To Windows]

Sheer awsomeness.

I really loved the percussion in this, and although it some times got a little boring, i think you did a really great job putting the windows sounds to good use.

DaVince responds:

Thanks. Back at the time when I made this I didn't really know how to do the drums, so I used some random drums. Maybe it's time to improve this song a bit...
