Xenon-Official's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Virus]

jared dines vibes. could use some better mixing but overall cool

[Modestep - The Fallout (ALESDA! Remix)]

i love the guitars plus the saw stacks. perfect fit. One question: Do you play and record the guitar parts yourself?

[Namorog - Forever(R3V Remix)]

comparing this with your newer stuff.... haha. Still better than my music lol

[Once]

nothing beats this

[dysfunction]

Woaahh love that snare.

XEFSketch responds:

Over compressed resonant snares are pretty fun.

[interpret]

Growls totally remind me of Honesty and Time. Overall pretty cool. I feel like the drums could have been chosen better and there could have been sidechain, but sounds cool overall.

XEFSketch responds:

The growls in this track I initially made with Sytrus - it's a solid VST for gritty FM. After recording the growls in Edison, I re-sampled them in Harmor to get them more throaty and aggressive.

As far as the percussion, I was using cut-up samples from previous tracks and layering them with a kick & snare, giving it a kinda overly noisy feel. I wanted the synth to overpower the percussion to set a mood I was going for - even if it doesn't sound all to great haha.

Thanks for the feedback!

[honesty & time]

Hey, could I have the stems for a remix? Like the .flp file? Also both our names start with "Xe" lol.

XEFSketch responds:

I'm not sure if I've still got the file actually, I upgraded my laptop and stored the old hard drives somewhere. If I ever come across it, I'll remember to shoot it your way :>

If it's of any help, I used Harmor for all the growls and stuff.

[Space Water]

Woah

[Night Chase]

nice

[Pingu!]

Good arrangement but no sidechain. Also, are those growls ALL samples? Try making your own sometime.

Pulkanator responds:

Yes they are samples I arranged them in GMS, I did not redistrubute them they are from looperman, how ever I do create sounds all in GMS now so email me at [e-mail] if you have any questions... cya
