Rucklo's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[-API- Anaconda]

The clarity...

...of this song amazes me, its very loud and clear. You made this in FL or Reason? I remember talking to you and you sent me a preview of it just before you submitted. There are some changes in the beat, and the car-screeech noice is playing differnet notes, and pitches both up and down.
This song is really cool, but even though its better than the preview you sent me, stuff are missing in there.
The bongo or whatever you used in the beginning should perhaps make a comeback as a solo, or put in a lead, perhaps another effect used as a lead, i dunno.
I guess ill have to wait for the full song to be certain :D

B ut man, that synth is just awsome, soooooo buzzing it playis ping-pong with my eardrums :)

Its a good one, Api, keep that stuff up!
Whens the next NG song coming???

[Oijoink - Violin Dogs]

I think violin dogs...

...is a fun name for a song like this.
The strings in the beginning really freaked me out, or when the beat came it i got freaked out. This stuff IS freaky.
Overall clearance is OK, and the song is quite cool too. But it does have a feeling of uncompleteness. You need more effects and transitions in the song when things happen. Perhaps a drum roll, a pitchbend, an effect that goes "chouuuu" or whatever. That would ease up the song alot, and make it more, uh, user friendly.
Oh well, nice job anyway, Oijoink.

Ps im still in love with your name :)

Oijoink responds:

Hehehehehe, thanks! But don't ya f*ck with tha Oijoink-stylo!! ;)

:P

Thanks bro!

[-=LJC=- Genre Invasion]

I love your...

...way of lightening up the music with exellent use of panning.
This mix is very easy on the ears, and the composition and instruments chosen are very well put together, that is until the pizzicato comes in. It was standing out a little too much in the mix, perhaps a little too bassy, or too much reverb on thatone. Oh well, its just a minor glithc.
The usage of reverb and cleaning up the other instruments is a job well done.
I really liked the mystique this song gave the feeling of, and some blupped xylophones or whatever instruments are used put this song into a constant wandering mysterium. Nice one, LJ! This is a five!

/Rucklo

LJCoffee responds:

Actually, all of the sounds were calmed way way down before I posted it - originaly all of the timbres were pretty bizarre but the whole thing felt a little... well... bizarre :)

If I'd have left them the way that they originally were and went with the glitch madness breakdown instead of the more traditional sounds then this would have ended up as a sort of IDM track instead.

Maybe I'll recycle it - or rathar, revert it back to an earlier state and resubmit a modified version to another genre.

Thanks.

[Please Don't Cry]

Hummm...

This sounds halfway like porn music, and halfway like elevator music. I guess a soapophera would be perfect for the song...
Production sounds fairly descent, there are some instruments panned that makes the mix a little easier. Chioses of istruments fits good together, allthough i do think the beat makes the whole thing pretty... gay?
Oh well, it aint my kind of music, but at least there are some effort put here, and thats why I give you descent scores. Cherios.

GeijinTakashi responds:

Sorry my song brought homosexual tendecies to you. Oh well, I am glad that you understood the effort it took to make this.

[[AH GRIND] - GSSF]

This stuff...

...takes me back to when i first started listen to music "for real", more than 16 years ago. Metal was the only thing i could listen to back then, and this piece could very well been one of the first once i´d liked back then.
I liked the riffs, the first part of the song was really good. Gotta love it when the double-bassdrum comes in. Then i goes to the usuall mangleing, something i allwys concidered "nessessary" in metal songs, just to lift the "good" parts up.

Great stuff, anyway.- It´s fivened!

/Rucklo

grind-or-die responds:

Thanks for spending time writing that half essay of a review!

And also, thanks for the 5!

[Kung fu Fighting. Updated!]

This shit was really...

...awsome, dude!
Im not gonna get techincal, im too lazy at the moment. This song was really awsome though! Great work!

/Rucklo

Dj-SilenT-HunteR responds:

Thx M8!!!

[Capt*in Chu Brothers]

hahaha...

...this stuff was really cool! Make more.
Y r u talkin in brittish accents?? :D

/Rucklo

CaptinChu responds:

Thanks! lol, nice to hear someone like this! Can't say it's my favorite, but ok. When I go back to school, I'll work on some more ochapello's.

That's the proper term. Ochapello is a pure voice musical.

[I Hate Ads n Ads Hate Me]

I was going to...

...start flagging here, but I figured it out. I allready reviewed thisone.
I say no more, if u want it to be shh shh... ;)

/Rucklo

Laiderdaiv responds:

What? lol

[Hokages Funeral (Naruto..)]

This is quite...

...interesting, indeed. Add some beat, a base line, a pad, or whatever you might think suite the song, and this could be really good!
Í don´t know if you came up with the piano yourself or not, but I assume you did. Anyway, it´s really good. It is a liiiittle untight in places, but that adds to the "real" feeling it gives.
Quality however, was extremley bad, and unfortunatley that brings down the song a whole lot.
Get a better soundrecording program/mic/whatever you use for recording, improve it.
This shows some talent, and could be really really good, keep on working!

JAPPO312 responds:

Thank you, I used a 4 dollar mic, and I just winged it. Next time Ill add more sounds, better recording software and mic, and play it completely right (I had about 2 mistakes) sorry about the other song XD

[Techno Crap (Parody)]

Parodies are...

...often well made, one way or another, be it the quality itself, performance, overall humour or other. This is not good anywhere, just the fact u call it "Techno Crap (Parody)" makes me wanna go to sleep. What kind of responce did you even expect from this?

JAPPO312 responds:

Okay I couldnt explain this in the explanation: This song is more of someone in the movie, playing it. Bruce Faucloner is in his house, composing this crap, and then he says "Hot damn im good" im sorry it's just a comedy. It's more of a sound, not a song. I didnt expect good reviews, nor good rateings, But the part where the song is played is hopefully going to be funny! Sorry i bored you :)
