Rucklo's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[[ m a t u i t ]]

As always....

...fucking genious.

I really like t he double vox, it sounds very suiting to your acoustic style!

We don't get to talk that much nowadays man, we really should have a name-spawning session some day! :)

Take it easy, and thank you for uploading yet another amazing track!!!!! :D

Kingbastard responds:

love you rukkie:D

[Chrono Eternity (B0UNC3 R]

Nice...

... as always. It sounds decent even if you haven't mixed it properly. Some have it, some don't... ;)

Anyway, I have only one major complaint, and that's the bass that emerged by 25 sec, and then again 3 min or so. It sounds really crappy and outdated :D

Nevertheless, it's always good when you are submitting something! :)

B0UNC3 responds:

Boobass ftw! I don't have any other basses that sound acoustic though =(

Thx for the review. I'll upload a fixed one when my ears can stand this tune again.

[Are We Still Friends?]

lol@...

...giraffo.
that was fucking funny man. ace shit. more shit like pl0x.

PsychoGoldfish responds:

done

[The-Donkey: A Personal Ode]

lol...

...ur a sick man, this was pretty funny. you have a nice voice, learn some singing techniques, and whooo you'd rock even more :D

sonicmega responds:

Singing? Meh, not for me. Voice Acting? Much more so.

[Spendmas Time Is Here]

Well...

...the production aside (since it pretty much suck... well, the mp3 compression fucks it up at least. the recording and the mix itself aren't really the best either, but meh...), this is fucking hilarious stuff. I'm no lyric-person, but since that's the whole point of this, I force myself to listen closer.
Fun like hell, you should definitley put the rest of the songs (from your myspace) on here dude!

[-=LJC=- Halloween loop 2 2007]

Please stop...

...scaring the living crap out of me! :-O

Like your previous halloween loop, this one is very suitable for halloween-flashes, here's hoping it gets used in something good!

LJCoffee responds:

AAaaaAAAAAHHHHHHHHH WWOWOOoooooeeeeeoeoewowwowoooOOoOOOO!
!!!! it is so scary. :D

I doubt this one will get used - the submission timing was wrong on it and it's currently way too far down on the charts to even get noticed - the other one got used in a few though.

boo!

[NES-Style: Eye of the Tiger]

nice to see u submitting

havent checked in your account in a while.
this is some slick shit, man! keep em coming ;)

Rage responds:

Hey Rucklo =p

Meh, I made this in a couple hours a long time ago. Poxpower asked me about some audio shit and I made him a demo for what we were talking about. People started talking about chiptune-style music in the forums and linking to audio submissions. That's what made me submit it just now. I so totally couldn't stand all the audio whoring going on without getting a slice of the cake.

Thanks for the review though!

[{pbj}it's Gonna Be Okay{pbj}]

I really liked...

... this song, all is really smooth, the stereo-image works out great, and the mood is fine. Synths and pads are really cool.
One thing really blows; the beat.
It has no punsh, is rather un-fitting, and sound way too much "n00bish", simply. Choose your samples more carefully, play around with layering drums etc. make the beat a part of the song instead, perhaps by smoothing some out with a tad reverb, but most of all, make it sit together with the rest of the mix better regarding the way it is played.

pitbulljones responds:

ahah, beats are not my thing, well they are just ive been using shitty samples. I have since this review uploaded my drum sample libary so my drums should now start sounding less 'noobish' though as you'd agree you can't beat a live drummer. Yiu seemed to like it tho which is all that matters.

thanks for the review

[en rev pa lur]

A fox...

...on the mistlur!

Good stuff, your mixes are always slick and smooooth.
Welcome to teh NG, enjoy and may you have lots of lulz!

Vi hörs av snart, peace :)

AL-3B-D responds:

heh - mistlure

[Mountain Clouds ft. SMM]

That's a mighty....

...cool song right here. I love the journey it makes, it's really great to see the 8 meg limit being used in a good way such as this!

The sound is slick at most parts, but theres something dynamically that makes it a little flat. You could try to send sound into different groups and compress them accordingly. Personally I like to send the bassdrum and compress it with the bass in the same group. It's a good idea to let the bassdrum (or any other transient sound you want to be in "controll") compress chosen instruments with just sidechaining. It really makes a hughe difference dynamically. In this song I would have done that with the pads, no doubt. To give the "wall" behind the sound a dynamic "life" makes a hughe difference.

Anyway, it's an awesome song, I really liked it. Good work here mate!

Also, LOLSTALK

Scrap-Sound responds:

Thanks for the idea, Ruckie :) I'll definitely try that out in the future.
