AdmiralConquistador's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Smix - Nerve DEMO]

Nice drums samples, synths were standard though

All of those synths have been used to death in other techno tracks, I liked the little bass outro part though, that sounded like it was going to lead into something pretty awesome. Anyway, I liked this piece, but it sounds too generic techno-ish, know what I mean?

sonic-remix responds:

yeah, i made this using my friends computer, so i had to use the default plugins.(ie: sytrus, 3Xosc...you know the shitty ones)

so the full Ver. will be with my good plugins at home...

thank you for the review!
much appreciated!

[Outro riff of DEATH!!!!!!!!!!!]

heavier than a donkey's ass

I'm sure that if a suicidal person listened to this, they would kill themselves right away, which is good because this is the Outro Riff of Death, and the outro riff is trying to bring sacrifices to his God, Death. He'll do a good job, I wager :)

Hahahaha thanks for the kick ass review man.

[Been Like 6]

Wow I loved this!

This piece is so weird and crazy; I love the lo-fi aspect of it. It's very interesting to me that you don't do any kind of drugs, because sir you are creating some ridiculously trippy music that would boggle the mind of any inebriated person. I feel like you did an excellent job creating the EQ and pan soundscapes in this one, the sound is full on my headphones and speakers, never really being crowded in any one part or clustering in a frequency. Very heavy delay adds to the trippyness of it; this is a really cool experimental piece.

Laiderdaiv responds:

Awesome. Thanks man!!

[The Three Kingdoms (Version 2)]

Very lovely!

I really enjoyed this piece a great deal. I can understand some of the things Zeth said in his review, and so I'm not going to repeat them in this one. However you've made a great piece, which would probably require a more trained ear than the average person has to identify that it's not a real orchestra. I didn't particularly like the abrupt transition from the beginning with the choir to just the clarinet, but the rest of your transitions were done very well. I love a good timpani beat, and this kept the energy flowing lovely-like. Overall an excellent job, good job man.

Diabolo-ical responds:

Thanks a bunch :)

Personally I don't like the beginning at all - in fact, I have no idea why I didn't change it for this version. It just ended up crap because I was making it up as I went along, though that's what I was doing for the rest too...

Anyway, thanks again.

[Zelda OOT Ranch - Orch. Loop]

Love it

Best video game song I've heard on the AP in a long time, hands down. This is an excellent version of the Lon Lon ranch song, and boy did it make me reminisce. Ahh, a reason to break out the N64 :)

Khuskan responds:

Nice to see I've inspired some people, even if it is only to sit around playing video games all day. After all, what is life for?

[Final Decision--_--]

Interesting low saw bass

I say interesting because I don't hear low saw bass in hip hop, but it gives it a grimeyness that is contradicted, beautifully might I add, by the piano and strings. What I think prevents this piece from really going to a 10 in my ears is the lack of variance on the drums, especially because I know you are such a great drummer. The piece is very soft and sweet, the melodies are candy on the ears and everything about it speaks volumes about your producing, however I think that it needs a more powerful climax before that volume fade out. Great track still though, and I love the triplet in the beginning, wish it would have made a comeback somewhere in the song, unless I'm dumb and didn't hear it because I was writing this.

:)

PERVOK responds:

yes, the drums could ahve been more interesting...but, i guess thats what laziness does to you.

ill put more workinto my next piece.

as for the triplet in the begginning...

yes, it does make a comeback :P

listen to when the melody comes in the second time. it should be there.

thanks for the awesome review!

[Flashburn - Crystal Keys]

Wow, nice!

I wasn't expecting something this nice for my "required 3 reviews" but this is pretty damn cool!

I love that piano melody, and when you introduced the drums and the bassline(which I loved, however needs a better way to lead back into the loop, also try and come up with cooler rhythms than just up-beat stabs, since it's been done to death) it started to flow together very nicely. I really like the little synthy bleeps toward the end with snare flams, it builds a nice energy for that next part. I really like the mood and feeling that this piece creates, it's a beautiful piece and I'm going to keep watching for more pieces by you.

-ac-

Flashburn responds:

Wow thanks! Im glad you appreciated this song. Zeeber too. yah I realize that coming up with greater diversity in my rythms is what I have to work on for my future songs so I will definetly do my best

[Capas]

Now I'm convinced...

That you do drugs.

You have great skill with Reason, makes me wanna get back into using it without FL.

-ac-

Laiderdaiv responds:

Your assumption of my persona based on the music I create is inaccurate.

I think it's totally cool that you have that conviction. In fact, I got the jitters reading that. Reason being, is that I'm a crazy ass person in my head. But in action, I do nothing about it. I take what conciousness gives me for granted. I'd like to think I don't, but if I didn't then the two things wouldn't be very diferent, if at all.

And I guess I exert my inner self in my songs..Craziness.
Question: Don't you act differently when you're under the influence?

....Exactly.

-Jon

P.S. I've never done any hardcore drugs. Mother nature loves me. My favorite color is green.

[A.D.H.D.]

Woah!

I finally get around to listening to your music, and little did I know I was missing Kingbastard jr!

This is very freaking cool stuff, I love the strange automation on the filter for that lead synth, and when the reverb heavy percussion comes in, it makes me bob my head, this song is so weird and yet so jammin' that I wonder what kind of shit you were smoking when you came up with it. I love that ending noisy synth that changes rhythms, and then becomes syncopated, I thought that was awesome! Excellent work, now on to your other songs :)

-ac-

Laiderdaiv responds:

LEFT OFF, man...Left off...

Or is it Right on?

I forget....I have no memory..

...I'm Joking..Seriously, I don't that often, haha. It's for appreciation purposes only.
