bloodredlurker's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Iostream]

The loop is great, I love how lively it sounds. So I put it in my college project game on Scratch.
Check it out if you like, nothing fancy, credit is given for the music.

[ParagonX9 - Infinity]

did it again

you and a few others are about the only ones i have found worth downloading to my ears. its just my tastes, but considering that i'm not very picky. it just points out how few good artists are on here. myself only adding things just to have some material up.

[Asher Roth acapella remix]

i just had to

first of all, the word acapella means to sing without music. just like when american idol contestants try get on the show to the next round.

second, i can't really hear the lyrics because of the music.

and third, what lyrics i hear. I'm just not feeling it, but thats just me.

[Kim - Death Fragment]

awsome

Truely awsome work. I can definately picture this as THE Final Boss fight music to just about any RPG. nice, smooth, not over powering, and sounds truely epic.

Kimken responds:

Thanks. I appreciate it!

[Kim - Experiment #1]

it is just an experiment

sounds nice, the guitar shimmers at a couple points that makes it harsh on the ears, but rather nicely done. not sure what this based off if anything, but the first minute was nice. might chop it there for a boss fight loop. not sure.

Kimken responds:

Yeah the guitar may be harch on your ears. This is my second guitar recording and i don't think i did any EQ work on this one! Also i don't know if you understand but, when i tuned my guitar JUST RIGHT it made it sound false when i played on the higher notes. It was a problem in the guitar.

This is a song i first started as a MIDI file a long time ago and it sounds much better as a MIDI in my opinion. Hmhm but check out our other (and newer) stuff and i'm sure you'll find better quality in them :)

Well higher quality songs are coming up!

[Psychedelica - Panic Pt.2]

Heres some honesty

1.) When rating something don't bash it because it used presets.
2.) If you know what "presets" these people are talking about then you've probably used them too.
3.) sometimes going back to the simple basics is better than trying to out do everyone with overly complicated riffs and beat sets.

4.) Its good music if there is presets or not.
5.) the solo piano part totally clashed and didn't fit. but the rest gets a 9 for me.

Tilkanuts responds:

I agree wholeheartedly on everything you just said man. Even the piano solo part.
I hear a lot of music here on newgrounds by popular artists, and it seems like they DO overcomplicate their music a little too much.... a lot of times to the point where its not really enjoyable. Sure you put in a cool sounding effect, and you mastered everything.........but that doesn't mean its enjoyable.

Thanks for the review :)

[Kim - Peaceful Village]

truely wonderful

I have only listened to a fraction of your collection now, but just from what i have gotten you have earned yourself a spot on my very VERY picky list of favorite artists. I may just have to make a VX game souly based around the audio work you have produced. very nicely done.

Kimken responds:

Wow. i am honored :O thank you very much

[Kim - Chill]

relaxing

I'm so going to try and find a spot for this in a game somewhere. I don't know where, but damn it! I'll find a spot.

[Kim - 42 Deep Thoughts]

Wow

Truely thought inspiring. I think i might wind up listening to this or even putting in some of my RPG Maker VX games.

smooth, mellow, thought provoking, emotionally compelling, and loops well.

[Kimble - Frozen Mountain]

not my taste

decent song, but couldn't capture my attention for more than a minute. i for some reason can't picture this in any game i would ever play and i play almost anything.

To: Depes Hales

Video game songs top the charts because as a whole. It is easier to relate to games that have captivated since we were kids. Some of us could hear a song from a 16-bit audio bit game and would want everyone else to be quiet while we listen even with the low depth of musical sound cause it reminds us of an old joy we once had in life.

That is why.
