HDG's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Battletoads - Level2 Metalized]

wow. awesome.

that was great. i love it. i've never played the game, but at least now i know it's got cool music, and the way you did it was really awesome. i love the oldschool kind of sound, and tone. keep it up.

[Hex]

i love it.

really great. the beggining had a sort of odd start, but once the song going, it sounded really really good. you can tell that some asshole came and gave it a 0 without listening to it to get their crap up, cause before i voted, it was only 1, and this certainly is NOT deserving of a 1. i envy your proffesional sounding recordings. i'll have to check out that GuitarPort thing you told me about. anyway, this is an excellent song, just get some drums, and you'll be good to go. i think you're one of my new favorite audioportal people now too...

[SoloS]

great.

nice work. um, i guess i don't have much else to say but keep up the good work.

[A short solo thing]

excellent.

i liked the sound of it. kinda short, but ehh, still pretty good. how do you get such a proffesional sounding recording??

Xm4e responds:

I use the GuitarPort to record witch has all the effects i need and records directly to the compter. Its a good investment.

[Prophecies of Lucifer]

Not bad...

nice song. i liked the lead, but i could hardly hear the rythm or anything behind it, and the quality needs some fixing, but otherwise, it was really good.

[The Sickness Within]

meh.

i can't really say that i liked it much. kinda repetitive, and really simple. there was a lot of speeding up too. try using a metronome or something to keep in time. it also sounds like you hardly left the lowest string at all. but i mean, just keep working at it, and you should improve.

[Lead Tapping]

cool.

cool. the beggining sounded kinda like Eruption... but yeah, tapping's not much i haven't seen (or perhaps 'heared'), but still yet, cool...

Metalholic115 responds:

Well, I have to say that Eruption kinda inspired this track. The solo was pretty simple and I went with tapping because it sounded pretty smooth. I'm surprised this is getting good reviews. Thanx for the review bro!

[Transparent]

Awesome.

i wasn't too into for the first little bit, but as the song went on, i got more into it. the solo was really really good too. not too over the top speed shredding and stuff. it had good melody and everything. kinda reminds me of Megadeth and early metallica... anyway, this is awesome, and definately get more in like this.

[Wrath of the Bastards]

awesome death metal!

sweet track. for a minute, i just thought it was mess of random heavy riffs, but it turned out to be really cool. it kinda changes throught the song, which makes it sound a lot better. anyway, cool song and keep up the good work.

GoreBastard responds:

Thanks man... You were right, it kind of was a mess of random heavy riffs. This one was heavily influenced by Deicide, hence the double bass blast beats.

[Minotor]

good..

nice track. well made and everything. but i wouldn't call that metal. i guess the vocals we kinda black/death metalish, but otherewise, it was more just like a heavier straight up rock sort of thing...

Mairuu responds:

thatnks for the response, you're probably right about the rock sort of thing. Meh...
