Macsalad's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[10/2]

love it!

I agree with haywire, the drums really grow on you. superb placement of sounds. this is the most underappreciated music I've stumbled across on the nets..
I'll be back for more listening pleasure! :9

[SR - You're Fading]

Damn

Really beautiful progressions, good recording quality.
This would do great in movies!

Good job,
Mackerel

SineRider responds:

thanks buddy :D

[AliasM- Funk You]

nice

i really like this dude, great porn music
good bass, good guitar, good strings, good drums
really funky !! good chopping, great drum fill

[Yun - Serotonin]

fucking masterpiece

that piano sample is too good, I don't know if you tampered with it any, but it sounds sooo eerie and beautiful. Drums go perfect with it
I feel sorry for everyone not really digging this!
suicide note would in fact be a quite fitting title for this as well, but Serotonin is good!
I like the sloppy feeling you gave the drumloop - great job, i envy you!
one thing though, I could actually picture myself seriously digging this with some deep sub bass in it as well, ducked by the bassdrum
crazy shit dude!

[Monk - Where the belt Breakz]

CRUNKBOP!

awesome dude! great contrast :P
00:16 is my favorite moment, when I realized you mad flipped that sample

[FF | Butta Chump]

wah wah reminds me of pete rock in a way

awesome awesome awesome!!!!!!!!
drums sound like roland 707 sounds or some sweet drum machine, nice drum samples anyhow!

[FF | Wahin Around]

nice and lo-fi

just fucking awesome man!
i agree with area11
this is such a good raw beat, i love how you created the mellow feel.
kinda reminds me of Mr. Dibiase but mellowed out

[FF | Hip Chop]

awesome

nice vibe dude, although i gotta complain about the drums needing some processing
it's a tough job, but worth it in the end!

[FF | I Said Swing It]

don't know why...

but I love the style of this one, I kinda agree with MickeyMao!
I love the beat from 0:55!
You could do something to the drums to make them slightly more muddy or something, make them fit in better, maybe fit in some old dusty breakbeat over it
what I'm trying to say is that it's sounding pretty dry how it is now, could use some effective processing (the drums)

freddyfinger responds:

thanks for the review...yeah i know what you mean about the drums, i have a hard time making them fit right with a song. i usually lay down the bass, snare, hi hat, etc and just sort of equalize it to give it more kick but that's as far as it goes. it's pretty basic, i'd like to be able to do more with em, like how you did the drums in the beginning of 'green shadows', tight

[SR - You're Going Up]

sick

real messy - i love that
nice drumloop - nice samples
everything is schweeeeeeeet
percussion is nice
fuck you
