FarFromSundown's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Happiest Death Of Our Lives]

I really love this idea. Great production based on the suggestions given. My ONLY gripe would be the mix, specifically in the beginning. There's like a very annoying 'sub bass'y sound that really stands out and just hurts my ears to listen to. My best guess is that it's coming from the palm muting part, that maybe that low end is up too high or something. If you scooped that low end out of the mix to prevent that wobbly bassy effect, man, I would jam to this song so hard. Great writing all around though.

Side note: Bring those drums up in the mix a bit man! They could cut through so much more that it would bring this to a whole new level!

AceMantra responds:

Hey, thanks for the great review! I agree with the drums being a little weak. I was having a little trouble making them sound more heavy. As for the sub bass, I'll have to look into the root cause of that. Thanks again, I'll keep all that in mind next time.

[Caravan of the Sand]

Very good playing. You know your theory and this very well composed and executed. I think it would be worth your while to look into other instruments or VSTs or synths to add even more depth to your pieces. You could do alot creatively with it moving forward.

[SSJ3 - Stab the Sword of Justice]

Pretty awesome job! I dig it. Good job on mixing everything as well. Everything really cuts through really nicely.

[Timezones (Jamuary Day15)]

I like this. Has a very chill vibe to it. Well produced and simple, yet flows nicely. Great work.

[Cement]

Love this. A well deserved front page!

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Thank you! I 'm really glad you dig it!!

[Master Slayer]

Sick. God, I absolutely love that lead tone! It's so damn crisp and cuts right though.

DanJohansen responds:

Glad you dig it man :D Yeah put some extra chorus effect on it to make it pop :D

[Courtesy (SpeedoRH Remix)]

Always improving! Nice work. I love the quality on this one. The little sounds that flare up in certain spots, really add a little something to this and I'm all for it.

SpeedoRH responds:

Hey man! It's great to see you under my music again. To be fair, it's been so long since I have heard this remix that I forgot up until now how it sounded like xD

Also, I wanna take a moment to thank you for getting this frontpaged. It's not the first time you have done me this huge favour. You are the real MVP man!

Again, thank you so much!

[Prefrorm the Precursory Ceremony]

I can't understand a word you're saying. So I can't tell if it's funny, stupid, satire, etc, whatever. I would dial back the reverb and maybe annunciate a little more clearly? Maybe this would be better/funnier, in the context with an animation or something, but it just sounded just someone choking for 26 seconds. I'm giving 2.5 stars because I hate giving 0 and since I don't want to discourage anyone from doing doing anything creative, I can only encourage you to keep at it and hopefully the next one will be easier to understand. I hope this helps!

Jenital responds:

The transcript is: "And now it's time to prafram (patois for perform) the precursory ceremonious act of pre-yeeting my jenital. For after I have completed the required ceremony, I will yeet my jenital, fr fr."

If you would prefer listening to a skit of the same individual, may I recommend this one that has much better recording and sound design:

[Rejuvenate (feat. Metaljonus)]

Love this! Great vocals and all around sound! Would you be interested in doing a collab sometime? Would absolutely love to get your vocals on something and would definitely be open to do something instrumental work if you're ever interested.

BeyondOurEyes responds:

Thanks for the love! I'd be down to do guest vocals or something on a track of yours for a small fee, shoot me a message on my official Facebook so we can discuss in more detail!

[Sunward (Reissue)]

As always, excellent musicianship/song writing here. Love the lead tone.
