Bertn1991's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Like a Dream 2017]

Not bad :-)

It's a little repetitive and sounds like a lot of other EDM, but it does sound nice. This is good to listen to while writing or drawing. In terms of sound, I don't hear any discernible flaws. It's well-done in terms of mixing and overall sound. Overall, nice work.

Hugs ^.^

[Crash]

This is the most house song ever created.

For what it is it's very nice. It's not winning the academy award for originality, but it does sound nice. It's a fun song to dance to ;D

Well done :-)

DJAbzorb responds:

Thank you. Your feedback is much appreciated!

[Jupitrean - The Zone]

I don't know, man, I'm not feeling this one.

I'm not the biggest fan of dubstep to begin with, so I'm probably not the right person to be reviewing this. I think there's a lot of really cool sounds here, but it doesn't quite fit together for me. It's repetitive and it drags on quite a bit. Don't let me discourage you, though. Keep on making music! Also, my early songs are so terrible that there isn't even a rating low enough for them on here.

Have a lovely day, sir :-)

Jupitrean responds:

Thanks for the review. I made the second drop too long because FL Studio glitched and said that my song was only two minutes, and I wanted to make the song longer. Thanks for the review, though.

[Jabun - The Grind]

Very chill indeed.

This is like something straight outta Earthbound. It's so calming, yet kinda weird, but in a good way. The song is very calm and spacey, but it never becomes boring. It keeps evolving and becoming more as it progresses. I love the sound effects and vocal work as well. It's definitely an interesting song worth listening to multiple times.

Wonderful work with this <3

Jabun responds:

Thanks so much for the kind words, and really happy you enjoyed the track :) I should have the rest of album uploaded to NG by the end of the weekend, so hope you enjoy it if you have a chance to listen. Thanks again and have a great day!

[hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia]

A fun and cute dance song :D

The synths all sound nice, though the song is very repetitive. What's there does sound good, no question. It's a fun, high-energy song and I can't help but smile when I hear it :-)

Nice work overall. 3/5

Ejohnykins responds:

Thanks! I will take what I can get! This was kinda rushed so yea copy+paste... but thanks!

[Oregon Boy]

I can see myself going into a bar and hearing this.

This one made my smile, and laugh a little. The music itself is well-done and the singer sure has plenty of charisma and conviction. The lyrics are kinda silly, but love 'em. Definitely a memorable song.

Nice work!

ConnorDeVaux responds:

Lol thanks! It's old as hell though, I'm still digging up old music files from computers and sharing them on here for you all to pick apart and laugh at.

[-Gummy Battle-]

And I'm reminded of the game I never finished. Kid Green, you will live on in spirit.

This was the mini-boss theme for that game. It was always meant to be a sorta cute battle theme. I might as well go ahead and post the original sometime. But yeah, I always love hearing your remakes and sharing them with friends. My favorite will always be Squirrel Country! On a side note, I can't believe how well The Final Level is doing.

Thanks so much for the smiles :-)

[Memetics]

I really shouldn't be reviewing this since I don't listen to this type of music very much, but here goes nothin'!

For a heavy metal song this sure starts out smooth-sounding. I loved the ambience of the beginning and the part close to the end. As for the meat and/or potatoes, the heavy stuff sounds good. You've definitely got the heavy metal style down, but it's got a unique sound to it I'd say. It's unusually airy and somber for heavy metal, and I love that about it. I do have to nitpick the ending since it just cuts out so suddenly. The ending is a very important part of a song in my opinion. You should let the sound die down before ending the file, but that's just my opinion. Overall, this is a great song and think most people would love it.

Nice work :-)

hoorayjay responds:

Thank you very much! Ambience is a lot of places in metal at the moment so it feels good to get that down. That last point about ending the file was an oversight on my part, as I wrote this as part of a concept EP and it is meant to flow into the next song. I feel silly for even letting that go through! Thank you for bringing it to my attention

[-Ancient City Theme-]

The memories, they're coming back to me once again.

This was heavily inspired by Legend of Legaia and Super Mario RPG, if you couldn't tell. I think you did a fantastic job bringing out the oldness as always. I feel like I always say the same things with these reviews, but they really are well-made. Your songs are kinda like ports of the originals with the added charm of being on the Genesis. I didn't think the mixing was bad. If anything, it's the monotonous bass I wrote for the MIDI that doesn't translate as well to the Genesis sound, but that's just my opinion.

Anyways, nice work <3

[Ever-Changing]

This is pretty epic <3

This would be the perfect tune to have playing during an epic robot / mecha battle. Or maybe something from a modern superhero movie. It's just got a high tech feel to it, but it's also very tense and full of energy. It's a wonderfully made bit of music. It's apparent that plenty of care went into it, with all the different sounds it's got going on.

Nice work :)

Thank you so much for your review! :D
