bobsmovie's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[No Surprises (S. C.)*]

great cover

I'm as big a Radiohead fan as you will ever find and you did that song a credit. Great convert.

BreakingFaces responds:

Gee golly, thanks mister

[suus abyssus]

Loved it.

I love all 3 of the tracks guys but i thought i'd review all 3 in one review because im lazy. You're really trying something different and thats cool. Loving the tracks. They're different and original. Keep it up guys.

Ragdey-Anne responds:

Thanks a lot. :)

[Final Goodbye (EQ)]

Really Great

Seriously. Amazing. Not much more to say. You should be really proud. Don't stop making music.

Equation responds:

Aww thanks man... All the praise should go to my cousin Melissa though she is what makes this song so special :)

were both working on some new tracks too, hopefully they'll overpower this one!

Thanks again 4 the review Bob

[Saving Face Machine (Demo)]

"i hate sentences that start with i"

i have been writing lyrics for many years my friend but never before have i came up with anything which touches that first line. Made me laugh when i read it. Great song. Really experimental. Kind of like what you'd expect if kurt cobain was shown bob marleys back garden and given a pipe.

Gunshy responds:

maybe somebody shoulda done that!

[The Red Leaves Outside]

Loved the song.

The song is really fucking good. Lovely voice. The only problem is I think its been amplified so much thats its actually making a distorted sort of sound. Still great song though.

LenardNotLenny responds:

Holy shit! Its bobsmovie! Your seriously my songwriting idol. Yeah... I made this song before I figured out remastering. But I don't really want to resubmit it. Thanks a lot for reviewing.

[Busted]

INSANE

I loved it. My thoughts were freaking out all over the place. Love the creativity dude.

LenardNotLenny responds:

I love you

[Abby's Song (no lyrics)]

Love it.

Great chord progressions. Really like this song. Can't wait to hear it with the vocals.

neonwelpZ responds:

That's cool to hear it from you man, thanks for the comment.

[[ L o s t A t S e a ]]

Excellent

... Sounds a little bit compressed but its incredibly good. Tempted to buy the EP :). Really love your music, especially your acoustic stuff but your electronic stuff rocks too :)

Kingbastard responds:

Thanks.
it IS a little compressed just so i could squeeze it under the 8mb limit:D The WAV sounds much better:)

[Rucklo - Indestructable]

Its excellent for what it is....

For an entry to the castle crashers competition, its great. I can completely imagine playing a video game with this music in the background. However, there are plenty of songs which i can imagine playing a game over and that could be the downfall of this. Although its well constructed, and almost perfectly mixed (although a thicker bass would definitely not go a miss), its not quite unique enough.
Having said that, it would be perfect for a "travelling" part in the game, or somethign which doesn't require a great deal of concentration. You certainly produce some unique music (judging from your other stuff) and i can see why you submitted this as a CC theme. Its definitely in my top 5 (out of the songs ive listened to for the CC contest... and ive listened to a lot). Keep up the good work :)

Rucklo responds:

Wow, that's a good review! Good reviews like this makes me tick! Thanx alot, man!!!

[Faded Future (N)]

I liked it. Its a great song.

The title of the review really sums up how i feel about it. Its a great song... excellent in many ways. The one problem i really have with it is the mixing. You've got a fantastic song, but surely you can tell that the vocals are too quiet? Its not a huge problem by any means, but i think the song would be better improved if they were prominent, otherwise it sounds more like a live recording.
However, as a song (recording aside), i loved it. I loved how you stretched your voice to the max on parts, and the chord progressions were ace. 4 minutes in was a nice surpise. Normally i would push something like that aside as annoying, but it worked almost perfectly with the song. And after this, i feel like the song really kicked off. The high pitched ?soloing? was great, giving a kind of Guns N Roses feel to it. Great stuff man :)

Naitzmic responds:

Yeah, I *completely* agree with you about the sound.
I didn't bother adjusting the volumes at all, in this one actually.
For no other appearent reason than wanting to shoot myself in the foot,
I decided to just skip the mastering process... =\

Glad you didn't turn it off at the 4-minute mark. Hehe.
It's "kind of" unusal even for a solo, in the way that
it's not so much melodic, and instead just "almost-in-key"-tapping,
with a long bend at the end.
As with 90% of my solos, it was improvised rather than
written down note-by-note in advance, and
it was an interesting approach to it - or at least I thought so,
at the time I played it.

The chord progression/melody at large was
the result of two insirational sources.
The first being the band "Manic Street Preachers (which I don't
even particularly like myself), and the second one was - and this
is going to sound ridiculous - Kathrina and the Waves with "Love Shine a Light".
Of course, their infuence was only inspirational and you
can't really tell since the song sounds very little like any of them.

Anyways, thanks alot for the review.
I deeply appreciate it.
