attemptedperfection's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[-=LJC=- Atonal Rythmic Noise]

This is awesome.

I love this kinda stuff... I honestly am not sure what sort of feedback to give for something like this... The speed change was great, the rhythms were fantastic, the atonality was bitchin'... although I could sense a distinct tonic key, so I suppose it could've been slightly more atonal. +1 download (now you need 5 more...) 5/5

you should check out "Rhythm Monsters"
a track I did with the same sort of idea
"Atonal Rythmic Noise"
although I'll admit mine's not completely atonal either...

LJCoffee responds:

"sense a distinct tonic key" - that's most likely coming from the vocoders - there are several of them in there and so that's the most likely cause.

I suppose "Anti-Melodic" would have been better than Atonal but... meh... :)

Left you a review on "Rhythm Monsters"

Thanks again!

[Solus- Endless Space Expanded]

very nice

I must admit, I kept expecting/wanting it to break out with a kick-ass drum beat or something, but maybe I'm just in that kind of mood. Or maybe you just did a really good job of creating tension... in a soothing sort of way. Either way, excellent use of synths and combinations of melodies. 5/5.

SolusLunes responds:

You want it to do something like that?

I'll send you the .flp if you want. :D

[dj_padman - Renegade Glitch]

How do you do it?

Jeez man, you just keep churning out tracks like nobody's business... and they all kick ass! How the hell do you do it? Is this all you do all day, every day? I mean, c'mon; it takes me a week or so to finish a decent song, and you've got two a day!? Get outta here... 5's & dl's all around. Good grief...

dj-padman1 responds:

Hey, I dont know what do tell ya, I'm a machine.
Well, actually, I'm on holidays now, so I can finally go back to all the half finished tracks I was working on during term time. So its not as if I'm making these things from scratch!
Thanks for the review. Always appreciated.

[Tease me (1:04)]

Fantastic!

The stuttering/stopping is priceless. I love everything about it. Well, except the length. It's too short. I want more. I honestly don't know what else to say. Fuckin' ace. 10/10, 5/5, dl.

WinTang responds:

Crap, I was afraid of that - this already took ages, haha. But it's lots of fun! I definitely plan on making this into a longer track, I'll give it some priority now. Thanks a lot!

[dj_padman - Flotsam]

Kick-ass.

So I'm working on some new audio, and I'm like, "shit, this track rocks!" So I'm all pleased with myself, right? I decide to take a break, I come on NewGrounds, see you have a new track, decide to check it out... I compare this one to my work-in-progress, and I'm like, "...fuck." XD This track kicks major ass. I honestly can't find anything wrong with it. It's complex, it's groovy, it's chill, it's friggin' awesome. Makes mine look like shit! Ah well, I guess I've still got some work to do. Keep up the good work! 10/10, 5/5, dl.

dj-padman1 responds:

hehe..thanks man. I know the feeling, it happens to me every day! The thing is, when you work on a track for hours and hours, you kind of get 'over' it, so that when you listen to some other persons track, its all fresh and clean and delicious. Its all in the mind!
Glad you liked it, I'll drop by your page soon.

[things snoball (complete)]

freakin' awesome.

You almost had me convinced those were live-recorded drums... almost... I'm quite curious as to how you did it...
At any rate, I'd be a fool not to give this one a 10 on absolutely everything. This track just keeps evolving and evolving... and then, when you think it's done, it turns around and evolves some more! Until, somewhere along the line, I discover I'm listening to some kick-ass reggae, and I'm thinking "this is absolutely ridiculous!" and I'm loving every second. Well done, sir; you've outdone yourself. 10/10, 5/5, & dl.

snoballandthmonyshot responds:

hey ya,
the drums are from samples of my kit, thats why it sounds real-ish, worked out a beat on them then sequenced it with it's sample set. Only thing that bothers me with em is the ;ack of variation, they do pretty much the same thing for the last half of the track.
thanks for the review
;ped

[dj_padman - Scourge]

Wicked.

From the second that second metal-sounding snare comes in, this track is pure gold. The rhythms are fantastic; very professional-sounding. If I would change anything, I'd bring that high-pitched triangle-like hi-hat-thingy slightly down in the mix, because it seems to stand out a little to much... but then again, that may just be my headphones. After the initial "holy shit, this track is awesome," things develop nicely, and then it just kinda grooves for a while... which is fine, and maybe even awesome, because it contrasts the change of pace later on, where things start getting sliced up. Also, I liked how, by the end, the whole thing intensified to the point where everything became a big, pulsing wall of sound. That's the way you do it. (You play the guitar on the MTV) [sorry... Dire Straits reference... couldn't help it] But yeah: 5/5, 10/10, dl. Keep up the good work.

dj-padman1 responds:

Thanks for taking the time to give me some feedback. Listening back to it, I 100% agree with you about the synthetic hi hat thingie. The thing is, I set the volume for it when I was listening to the last section, so when everything else is absent, it sticks out a bit! I will go ahead and change that.
Well, its a relief to learn that my wall of sound attempt didn't destroy the track, I'm happy about that!
lol..well, a sampled guitar ;)

[Shaddows 2]

very Danny Elfman

Sounds like something straight out of Beetle Juice or Nightmare Before Christmas... Excellent work. Love the strings.
