KaiSun's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Self Destructor]

one of your best

yeah this is one of my favourites of yours. The high end apreggio bits sound awesome. The acid sounds wicked too. If the beat was a bit more pronounced this would be even better, but theres a lot acid at the bottom end so its hard to separate the two. keep em coming

dj-padman1 responds:

I was hoping no-one would notice!

The kick and snare definately need to be beefed up, you're absolutely right.

But if you got some second degree burns from the acid, then I'm pretty happy.

[Arcane Vector]

epic

This needs to be played loud in a warehouse with lasers and convulsing junkies around. good stuff. some of the glitches are a bit random though, they might take away more than they add. And lay off the zero voters man, my uncles a zero voter.

[This Time Tomorrow]

Tight

Those drums that filter their way in are water tight man. I notice if you can pick the right shaker/hats to slot in between the kick and snare it makes it, and u picked it here.
The instruments supported the drums nicely, very atmospheric, as with most of your work but the drums got my attention. Nice work

Jimbobsthebest responds:

As stupid as this sounds, I find the drums and bass in drum and bass the hardest to write. This is why I decided to try out a more ambient track to put the focus on the melodies as opposed to the drum and bass parts. I wasn't that impressed with my drum line personally as I felt it was a bit weaker than it should have been, although you obviously thought it worked pretty well. So thanks for the review, it's always nice to hear what someone with fresh ears has to say,

[Tainted Sun]

Hard

Thats a full on song man. It reminds me a lot at times of Autechre. I really like that filtered and flanged drum and bass drum busting out behind the more conventional break at about 0:55. Maybe a bit too random to hold attention to for the full length, if you brought it back to the ambience and orthodox beats halfway through you could build it up again to the mayhem. Cool song anyway, teach me to glitch!

[Thermal Reflection]

cool

This has some really good beats in it. The closing beats sounds really tight. If you could tighten up the bit with the echoey guitar sounding bit it could be awesome. ill keep an eye out for some more of your stuff, it sounds like the stuff im into. check out some of my stuff n see what u think

iVisual responds:

thanks and yeah i took a look at ur stuf and i liked it =P

[Oller - Splurge]

like it

This is a really well made track. I have trouble knowing when to stop adding things to my songs but this was put together really nicely. I think this might be hip hop, sort of a slowish breakbeat. smooth

oller responds:

Cheers for the review, mate ^^

[Sweet Destruction]

heaps of potential

The bass synth sounded sick and i was hoping it would bust out and fill out a bit more. its an awesome build up and i reckon u could do heaps with it. But i didn't really hear a breakbeat? good stuff anyways

[Gameboy on weed]

stoner electro jazz

its a cool song. fits together nicely and the name suits perfectly. it should inspire a smoking game on gameboy. tap a & b to inhale. maybe not

Skabbish responds:

hehe....

Nintendo presents: Stoner's Quest

Join Cheech and Chong in this platform game on their quest for the wholy weed. Help them fight DEA's and crack dealers. Collect buds for extra points...

that would be a cool ass game!

[Some organ loop.]

love the chords

yeah awesome organ sounds the rolls and the chords are perfect. your songs sound a bit like Mr Bungle. good work

Glaiel-Gamer responds:

eh, when i made this i didn't feel like "writing" any melodies so i just mixed stuff together.

[Its 8-bit!]

it sure is

I thought it was cool and the harmonies at the end were well done.
