[Dancing With a Stranger (RU Metal)]

this = awesome

ADR3-N responds:

Tyty <3

[Loss/Gain]

good to see you're still making music glenn! This one has a very somehow, uneasy vibe to it, but not in like a creepy sense. I don't really know how to describe it, but know I mean it in a good way, lol.

[Escape The Abyss]

this is has a pretty nice build up and a steady groove that flows well through out. No real spaces that feel wasted or out of place. Everything seems to have its place and be put there meticulously. Respect. Love it.

EspyoNG responds:

Yoooo munkey, it's been a while! Thank you so so so much for the compliments! I appreciate it a lot <3

[SHATTER]

Alright, this is low key a banger, lol. I really enjoyed the lyrics, too. I think they're done rather creatively. I'm not a huge fan of a repetitive drum beat throughout most of a song, but I found myself more focused on the words/vocal cadence to be bothered by it (and really that's just a personal preference if anything). Love it

ADR3-N responds:

Thank you! You're right about the beat being simplistic. The vocals were the initial inspiration, the structural basis and the focus of the song, so I tried to keep things pop-EDM not to distract from them. Without the vox as a starter, this song would not exist

Also, if you ever want to turn your voice into a bass, I still have that riddim bass voice model I used throughout. The only thing I used for this track was vocal AI, chopped samples in melodyne, Vital, and my own 808s. I think there might be one or two midi lines for said 808 and a lead synth. The rest is retooled and reharmed cut loops/samples for texture.

[ADR3-N / 10 / A200]

Overall, really enjoyed this interview. A couple odd spots but for 4 hours of content, you can't really expect a 100% all the time, haha. I feel like I learned alot about everyone involved.

To answer your question @Aalasteir the account that first inspired me to do all the audio production myself was Wahhsin (i'm probably spelling that incorrectly). I don't think that his original account exists anymore, but I loved his work.

ADR3-N responds:

You'll have to send me some of Wahhsin's stuff!

I was concerned after 4 hours plus of talking that we would go completely off the rails, and ofc we did. But I think in the end it's pretty interesting, at least to the types of folks I'd get along with and have something to offer anyway. Like autistic folks, other creative, and people who like internet oddities, or 90s kids. I put podcasts on while I'm doing chores or walking so it's the kind of thing I'd be down to listen to and that's enough for me!

It also made me think maybe I should do a podcast, since I clearly love to talk lol

[AIM - The Air of Spring]

maan, you've come a long way from just the short 1 instrument pieces I remember. This is great. soothing, paints a picture (even without the piece used for inspiration) and creates a great zen-like atmosphere. well done!

[Scrapped Metal Projects]

i absolutely love the thickness of your guitar tone. I need to work on my tone game

Burn7 responds:

Thanks dude!! I swear to god I learned this too late but for me it's about giving the bassline space. If I mute the bass and the guitar tone is the exact same there's a problem lol.

[Fall Away]

soo couple things:

1. I really like the unique-ness of your voice on this one. It's raw, but it feels like it just fits so perfectly.
2. I love the weird, poppy, rock mix and how it goes in and out of different genres pretty seamlessly. A couple spots seem a little forced, but nothing too drastic or worth complaining about as a casual listener.
3. Sooo I'm moving next month, and have an awesome collab in the works with @Burn7 who I've been a fan of for years (so excited for it), but when I'm settled in at the new house, we gotta hop into a project again! I loved working with you!

ADR3-N responds:

1. Ty! Some of that is a little bit of distortion on top of vocal AIs I made of myself. The rest is me screaming 3in from the mic xD
2. Double ty! I really think we went balls to the wall crazy. It was never really supposed to be overly serious or sacred, just new and unique. I'm glad it seems to be in a good way!
3. Absolutely dude! I absolutely love your harsh vocals. Would be freaking sick to work together again!

[Macrolisk]

Hell yea dude! I would absolutely love to do a collab with you at some point if you're ever down. Even if it's just you letting me scream over one of your tracks haha. Killer as always

Burn7 responds:

Shit yeah! I'm always down to collab and it'd be an honor! Whenever you're feeling up for it just hit me up!

And thanks for the review!

[Arandem - Byte by Byte]

Love the mix. Those drums are punching through nice and crisp! a well deserved front page!
