RaDaFoo's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hey Jude : fixed and improved]

awesome

i reviewed ur other version, so lemme add how u made it better here:

arrangement is AMAZING... don't take the 8 i gave you as bad, the highest grade i'd ever give to a cover is probably 8. and notice u got two 10s.. and lol im a bitch about music so awsome job..

clarity was good, but since its MIDI.. u kno.. if taht was actually played, itd b amazing. nevertheless, didnt hurt the grade

same thing with effort.. if it were played, ud definately get a 10

only two corrections this time: the rhythm of the "vocal line" is thrown off by 8th notes at parts.. but it makes it very unique so it sounds awsome. and the first chord on the bridge.. i think ur playin Dm.. and after tryin to anxiously figure it out cuz i was gettin mad at myself already: its D#dim (D# F A).. that shud work perfectly :) awsome job nevertheless

killtony999 responds:

Yaa I know about the D# diminished thing, I just thought the D minor sounded a bit better in this case, and I dont have any diminished chords piano loops, and my piano is out of tune, so getting that diminished chord would be too much work to get that to sound right...so I gave up on the diminished chords..... and in the program its really hard to get the exact timing with things as complicated and exact as vocals, so theres obviously impossible to get everything exactly right, but I think its close enough for my tastes at least....

And I would actually play it except I itadont know how to play every instrument... I know gur(best), bass, and piano, but I suck at the drums...
and many of the loops I use are from what I actually play, then imported and messed around with, not everything is from the program..... And my 8 track recorder is in a box somewhere and the cords are probably in a DIFFERENT box, so setting all that up is a hassle Id rather not deal with....

Anyway the chords on the bridge are
opening three notes - F E D#
and the chord progression after is -
Bb Bb/Am Gm7 F C7 C7 F, which simplifies out to be Bb Am Gm F C C F, the way it is here(C C meaning C lasts twice as long)

I even added a couple things over the actual song, such as a harmony line for the NA NA NA NA part

And actually this isnt really MIDI, I believe midi works differently that this... midi is more compterized sounding, not made from real instrument loops arrangements, but whatever, its the same KIND OF thing.

Well anyway Im now working on "Let It Be" and maybe Ill finish "Get Back" and submit that too. Other possibilities - I want to hold your hand, I saw her Standing there, and maybe Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da.....

thanks again for the review!

[Kitchen Swing]

meh

i dunno it was well composed i guess, just missing something else.. mayb add a solo, and dont repeat the exact same pattern too many times, variation is always good. i play jazz and i kno its supposed to go off key at parts, but the whole song didnt hav a melodical motif, it just kinda moved unpredictably. some parts felt like something was missing. and now to end my bitching, the melody was actually good and the guitar riff really pulled it up. the piano's chords fit just rite, maybe an eighth note solo cud make it more interesting like followin the bass line. the end was definately a plus, well incorporated with the beginnning. well composed, just didnt click cuz it lacked some jazz.. good job nevertheless.

Rectal-Fissure responds:

I know it repeats much, I should have made it somewhat shorter because I do tend to use the same pattern. The missing thing could be because I use a program for making it. I'll remember to place solo's next time.

Thanks for the advice and the great review.

[Killtony03]

just fine!

wow this one really kicks ass... its really simple but hey the simple stuff's always easier to dance to, its great!!

killtony999 responds:

Actually I wasnt really proud of this one that much, its allright I guess, Im working on an extension that I might submit as a full song with more stuff added like some guitar and whatnot. Keep the reviews cumin'

[Hey Jude (Beatles remake)]

still good i guess

it wasnt bad, just not amazingly good... lots of lil notes u cudve fixed, especially on the voice part, theres just so many notes either off rhythm or melody. the chords just got thrown off on the bridge, its either the instrument combination or some weird harmonic. u didnt add the second voice in all parts that hav it. loved the arrangement tho, definate pluses for instrument choice and drums, and the contrast was just really well done. i guess (in fewer words), itd b okay for someone who never heard the song, but knowin the song i kno exactly where u missed something or notes... i kno its a remix, but some of the changes sound like errors rather. still good tho.

killtony999 responds:

thnx for the review, and I respect your opinion, I wasnt really trying to make a masterpiece, and since the real song is so long I had to summarize the song and leave out some parts, like inbetween verses towards the end of the regular part of the song Paul's voice goes high and little guitar and piano chords play, I left that part out completely, some things like harmonies I forgot about because I was going mostly off of memory, and I wasnt trying to make an exact copy of the song. Well thanks anyway and promose me youll keep checkin up my page for new music (I have one finished which I will submit when I finish a second one, one is from the Clash, another from bad religion) the BR one is way off beat at points tho tryin to fix that. Sorry no more Beatles just yet
P.S. theres no piano because I couldnt find any good piano loops, so I just used guitar instead. Keep the reviews comin man!

[Freddy is Back]

Good unless

it was really sped up on the computer, i cant really tell whether it was or not, except the last note on the first part didnt sound natural there. in case it wasnt, well.. it was ok im a solo person but i listen for melody and motif, not how fast someone can pick, but as a Malmsteen fan id say its awsome!

[Ballad_Of_Hate]

chipmunks rock... kinda

lol we kno it sucks when our friends tell us, dont we? but i actually like the chipmunk version, i did the same thing and actually had people singing along like chipmunks... so yeah its a good idea and a good song

[insulin dependent-way of life]

niiiiice...

the fill from the second chorus guitar part to the distortion is good, use something like that on the first one also cuz w/o a drum fill or smthing like that, it sounds too drastic for non-musicians. what brand's your dist. and chorus, btw?

KHFSUSCLHew responds:

my distortion and chorus all come from my line 6 spyder.

[Knew it All Along]

Time to bitch....

sry im more of a critic than a supporter, but i dunno i like gettin some negative feedback on my material too cuz i can fix it so dont be insulted by this. well the song is good but..kinda repetitive.. love the arrangements, but like someone said on "All For You", not really my style.. rating individually, vocals are pretty good for punk-pop-rockish music like this, guitars pretty nice, id make something more elaborate for bass and drumms cuz thats where the song loses the "power".. but yeah its good lol im not being sarcastic those are just lil things, really..

[capo]

that riff...

the intro sounds like creed... no sayin its bad, just.. the 2nd and 3rd chords are the exact same as the six feet from the edge song... but its cool nvrtheless

KHFSUSCLHew responds:

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! anything but fucking creed. Im gonna go hang myself in the bathroom now

[spanish classical guitar thing]

uhh....

that's italian, and the name is "tarantella" (not sure if spelled with both ll's) sry aah im kinda bored and its 1 in the morning and i got school and im keepin myself busy but yeah its italian..

KHFSUSCLHew responds:

cool.
