AdmiralConquistador's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Outsider]

Agreeing with Xstormer

It's not trance, because that beat makes it more hip-hoppish... I think I'm noticing the trend here, haha. Still man, I'm going to rate this not on genre, but on the song itself, which is very very good. The beats man, the beats are very good in all of your songs, I love them! I want to start making some hiphop songs again, haha. You are pretty good at least with EQ work and compression, because the song is loud and clear, with no peaking or distortion. Keep it up man.

[Rock That Shit]

F'in catchy

I'm diggin that synth man, even though it's simple, it gives a groove, a sweet rhythm to the ambience of the song. I would have to say one thing is that the hats are just a TEEEENSY wee bit sharp and biting my ears. Haha, other than that, you've got a badass track here man. It's definitely more hip-hoppish than dance I would say as well, but I won't vote down on it because of that. Great work man, I expect good things from you.

[-API- The Virus [Preview]]

f'in awesome

I really like this kind of stuff. Sub bass with a hint of glitch will always attract me. The production, as usual with -API- tracks, is dead on the money. Perfect baby, perfect.

Very cool, I know the full track is going to blow everyone away.

apimusic responds:

Wow man, thanks for the review! I'll for sure keep pumping out high quality tracks for all you fans :)

LaymanLove responds:

it's beeeeotch to you mr.

[-API- Paradise on E [REMIX]]

wow!

I remember hearing this one way in it's beta stages... I must say this is an incredible remix of it. The production is spotless really, I can't fault anything in it, and it just sounds so damn sugary sweet! I love it man, you got my 5 and 10 :)

[Dj_Seri-Tetrix(tetris remix)]

loved it

I really liked the way the tempo changed around, it gave the song a bit of a fuller feel. It could stand to be a bit more crisp, however with the compression issue that API was talking about, I can see what he means, but it really isn't a huge detractor. I like how you snatched the melody and then ran with it throughout the piece. However, having heard so many tetris remixes, it's kinda like I've heard it all before. Your remake of it though is still a very good one, great work man!

-ac-

DJ-Seri responds:

Haha, i think the tempo change will be a very personal choice some ppl will like and someppl wont, as for the compression i will check that out, i think i might have horrible speakers so i think its clear but it really isnt.

Thx

[Forest Lullaby]

Dude!

This piece really is amazing. The shortness detracts from it alot, however I won't let that stop me from 5/5ing 10/10ing it. I love the vibe it gives off, and when the pizzicato strings come in, man I loved that. Very cool, has a powerful sense of video game, which is never a bad thing in my opinion. Congrats on getting #2 on the top5 man, this song definitely deserves it. Reason sure sounds great with you at the helm :)

tedJohnston responds:

thanks man, and congradulations to you too!

"I love the vibe it gives off..." my response to that: YES!!!!! i seriously spent hours and hours mastering this thing...i tried EVERYTHING i could until i got that "sparkle" that i wanted. i'm glad you also like the strings and everything else...

thanks lots dude! cheers an g'day.

[-API- Another Dimension]

nice dark feel

The title fits the description well...

I felt like I was in a starship getting sucked into a wormhole feeding into a parallel universe, or maybe to ANOTHER DIMENSION.

:)

I love the synth with harmonics, really sounds great with that sharp saw synth and the wobbly low bass. Love this type of stuff man, great work!

[Ion Storm]

I'll say it again

I absolutely loved that first version of this song, and I like the new riffs you used in this version, however the reason guitar sounded a bit weird and out of place? I don't mind the reason drums, don't really sound amateur to me and I've been using Reason for quite a while now... Rucklo is a bastard though hehe. I like the new solos you added, very cool stuff, however like I said the guitar sounded a bit weird, also the delay on the piano while the sonic boom kidna sound thing was going on made it sound a bit off beat... however I'll have to listen to it again to be sure. Otherwise, I really love it, and I love that bassline beginning synth's progression, it always blows me away when I hear it. :)

-ac-

synteza responds:

Haha you're just too used to the other version! This verison has been around for a long time, I just kinda decided to put it up now. I'm used to it now and the guitar sounds ok. Rucklo's a cool bastard, might I add!

Makes my day to hear those kind words!

[Pizzicato ReduX]

I like this alot

The new drum n bass beat adds a bit of motion, kinetics to the song that makes it kick along real nicely. The original is great, and this one is too :)
