dj-KDUB's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[My Retribution]

that segaman is a fuckin faggot

this songs is legit dude. i love everything about this: the title, the beat, the melody, the choir layering... this stuff is golden.

that guy is so full of shit... probably isn't even a guy. he's probably some jealous little 10 year old sittin next to his computer, wackin off to hentai porn.

don't let anything get you down man. you got talent.

-KDUB-

ps. i'm workin on a hip hop beat of my own (i like to experiment with genres) and i was just wondering where you get your drum samples becaue you can only get so far with the FL studio basic crap. send me a pm or somethin, cause i'd love to talk to you about making hip hop.

Druids-Warcry responds:

thanks man, keep it up i dig your music. got a lot of cool shit going on. really man keep at it. thanks for the support and keep at it

[(NUB)Victorian Longing]

such good quality

i love all your orchestral songs. what vst are you using to get that high quality sound?

[Alchemy FX]

oh snap

epic. dude. well done. your work is so unique and very professionally done. u should go pro.

[[DFP] - Spring]

dude!

love the melodies and the the development is incredible. The climax toward the end was well done.

some things to consider:

-your piano soundfont is a little wack lol. i thought you got nexus? nevertheless, to make pianos sound better, you gotta add reverb and/or delay. hit me up and i'll show you how to do this.

-another thing, your percussion gets lost under all the melodies. for trance, the kick, the offbeat hat, and the snare/clap are essential. i recommend the vengeance club sounds. you don't have to do too much mastering to make them sound professional.

great song, but could be 100000x better with a more pronounced drum sequence and better piano.

Ephemeral-DFP responds:

Thanks dude, ya i still have a long way till my stuff is good,
the review helps ill get working on everything and making my stuff better.

[Life's Choices]

another great song

good job dude. you're becoming one of my favorite artists here on newgrounds. you have a very fresh, unique style that i can't get enough of. i especially love the quick orchestral sound towards the middle. what did you use to make such a great sound? anyway keep up the good work man! i'm truly impressed.

also, where do you get your drum samples? you have inspired me to take a stab at the hip-hop genre, but i can't really use vengeance club samples for hip hop lol.

-KDUB-

C-Enterprise responds:

LoL
This beat it's only composed with many layers of piano, various strings like orchestra, violins, cello, and stuff, a flute full of reverb and a little pad. There's nothing more if i remember right..
Anyway, the drum beats I use are from various refills, in this beat I only used the drums of a Reason Refill called Drumomania, absolutely free to download and has some really cool shit in it, I just tweak a bit the presets by reverbering a bit, adding more snares to create just one or else eqing a bit lol
Whenever you make your hip hop beat let me know via pm I'm looking forward to it!
Thanks for the review pal ;)

[{425} CraZe]

Sick song man...

Thanks for the cred for the title.

Michael425 responds:

yeah man, np.

[I Tried to Tell You]

damn...

i really like this. this is like Halo meets hip-hop. i like it dude. what vst are you using for the orchestrals? I'm having trouble finding good sounding violins and cellos for classical. thats mainly why i haven't really touched classical or hip hop. lol.

anyway. great song. i really love the depth.
10/10 5/5

[<LE>The Last Demo...]

No way....

I don't believe it. So you're done with newgrounds... or what? I am going to miss your old style man. You were one of my favorites and my inspiration. I've made many songs from listening your songs for hours on end. You have a real talent and i'm going to miss it. Hopefully your ambient songs will be as good....

I am jealous of you. I wish I could meet my special someone. Where did she go off to?

Gonna miss you man. Let me know what your new artist name is going to be if you decide to stay.

-KDUB-

LiquidEcstacy responds:

I'll definitely let you know when I decide a new name.
You've been with me through most of LE =)

[closet full of victims]

holy fuck

this is some creepy fucking shit. lol. well done dude. this is a fucking tight song. It needs a bit of work on the mastering, but other than that you have a great start. the drum- work at the beginning is beast, and it gets better throughout the rest of the song. what program are you working with?

also the title is frickin disturbing lol, but i guess it kinda fits the song.
