AKACCMIOF's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[København Goes Up!]

Dis good stuff! Liked it very much. VERY Eurotrance indeed, NAILED the genre. Break down section sounded a bit rhythmically confused, but that's a minor point. Mastering was excellent, sounds all convincing and all very fun.

Repping it up for the RAC crew!

Airprogressive responds:

Thank you so much!

glad you liked it!

[RAC-Germanic Impressions]

Good point: The part writing is great! Idiomatic lines for each instrument, carefully crafted dynamic balance, effective melodies and harmony.

Point for improvement: mastered somewhat lacklusterly. Maybe up sound quality, could do with some Eqing and compression as well though. Also that percussion sounded very computerised, perhaps would be better without? :/

Good point: Clear and convincing Waltz style, recognisably Germanic!

Repping it up for RAC5 :D

Nimble responds:

Thank you! I really enjoyed making this so I'm happy someone is appreciating.

[Athens (Instrumental)]

Yes. That's all I have to say.

Obsideo responds:

Whoo! Yes is all I need to hear.

[The White Girl Love Song]

Shit, this is fucking hot! Lyrics strong, flow fucking solid, what's there not to love?

Poniiboi responds:

Muchas gracias. Like me on Facebook or Twitter or somethin...more to come. MUCH more.

[CT Hype 2012 ballisticktw]

Flow needs work, probs see if you can EQ your voice a bit better, but the lyrics sound pretty solid. Just work on it and kill it next year man :)

Ballisticktw responds:

I would have equalized, but basically gave up half way through. Definitely going to give it a go next year though

[LO - Black Keys (RAC2012)]

Oh man, this is pretty sick! Liked the way you wrote for all the parts, they each had convincing and stylised writing I felt, and the beginning dubstep section (0:00-1:52) was pretty freakin intense. I'd like another drop though! Equally, I think some shakuachi samples could have worked quite well on top of this as well, and brought you extra representation points to bit. Maybe turn down the synth at the beginning, or automate the compression so it doesn't come into effect that early on.

Love the cheeky wub at the end too bro :P Its gotta be a ten for Eastern dubstep broski. Repping it for the Eastern Dub movement. BTW, you OK if I remix this? :)

Oakwood responds:

To be honest, I would've loved another drop as well, but I just couldn't find a good spot for it :(
Of course you can remix this! Just give me credit, will ya? I could provide you some MIDI's if you need too :)

Thanks for the review!

[Soul Drop]

"Well of my being"? Very nice! Reminded me more of gamelan than anything else, a very excellent track indeed, soothing and meditative. I think perhaps, the bass could have done with some bass heavy EQing, but that shizzum is all creative decision. Keep up the excellence!

Tydusis responds:

I didn't know that was a genre; thank you for mentioning it. The bass is not as heavy as I thought it was; I unknowingly had my rig set to a bass boost setting.

I was really unsure of how this would be received. Thank you for the feedback! :D

[Night Impressionism]

Nice, but it lacks a massive modulated punch for me. Have you considered messing with the filter of the main mid-bass? Its musically very nice, but it doesn't overwhelm my senses. Still, lots of good stuff to work on!

Reali-tGlitch responds:

yeah, not a lot of power behind the drop. At least, in comparison to some of my other works.

[[RAC'12] - Ghana Campfire]

Most excellent, very catchy and very well mixed though I would've thought a Ghanan submission would perhaps have some djembe, even if just for a small section, maybe just a little more variation? :) In any case an excellent track, look forward greatly to the finished version.

PeppersMoD responds:

Thanks!

I know what you mean about using a djembe or other African drums because that certainly would have sounded native, but the thing is in the beginning I had no idea what direction the piece was going to take and the fact that I had decided not to use any VST's and keep it all authentic meant I was limited to what I had available which fortunately included a Balafon (percussion native to West Africa/Ghana) which I thought would be enough to cover the country.

I also agree about a little more variation because it crossed my mind as well when mixing, but at the time of recording I was thinking to myself that the southern/western world doesn't actually follow our western world's ideology of a song being verse/chorus so I decided to make mine more of a session with the same chord progression throughout but with a few solos just to keep things lively.

Anyway cheers again and i'll be sure to leave some feedback on your more recent submission as soon as I get a chance.

[Teqneek Hype Track]

AxTekk, again, and while its classless to review a track twice, just wanted to say while I chatted shit to try and get something like pre-battle tension going, the piece- of- shit Empire deserve every diss you give out, and before leaving another review should take a second to think about why they're mad.

I think its because despite the low production value of this track its far above their shitty level.

Teqneek responds:

You hit one of the nails on the head homie. I'll hit the other ones in the battle. Thanks for the words dude, peace.
