JustShawn's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Majestic]

Slap yourself for being cynical.
This piece actually suits the disney mood and it's not often you even catch ANYTHING like that on newgrounds. It's all new-age and trendy...and this is a scream away from that. I like it!
For a unique piece of music, it's catchy and has a very high melody and the switch at 1:37 into what I consider a dance beat, was a great addition! For some reason, the ending reminded me of the ducktales video game O_o

Great work, but maybe change up your instruments a little more? Add in some more powerful drums and a few more string instruments to really bring out the atmosphere in this piece.

I'm trying! D: it's part of my new years resolution to stop being a tool when it comes to this stuff...
but yeah, Thanks! I'm happy you think so too! I feel reassured about the whole Disney-esque thing since to me it was just another happy orchestral instrumental :D.

Yeah! that second part was made using a lot the techniques I use for my chip tune stuff so I guess towards the end I guess it came out ducktales ^^ I'll take that as a compliment because that had an awesome soundtrack!

Oh! I've been contemplating buy a percussion track lately but haven't been sure on it. I guess now I'll make that purchase for more powerful perc :D and yeah all the string instruments are here except they're all put together so they come off as a "section" instead of a solo instrument, I'll try and make a few solo instruments next time :D.

Thanks for the kind words and feedback!

[ANGER]

You can feel the anger and pain. I pick up some Ramstein, some five finger, and a bit of killswitch.
Nicely done.

[Reasoning]

Does have an alice in chains feel to it, and you can also pick up on some Breaking Point in the way you do your vocals. Nothing wrong with a lil inspiration being used to get your beats the way you want them.

[B7 - Destiny's End]

The Burn returns to grace us with his almighty awesomeness!!!
Now, this lil slice of heaven has just the feel of a metal christmas! Great work!
Nice lil flare there at 2:00 ;-)
Nice addition at 3:54 lol!

"@#$% this I'm taking off my shirt." -- Seriously? Put that shit back on! >:O
Vagina's Vagina's Vagina's Vagina's Vagina's....
Brilliant!

Burn7 responds:

No, this shirt is made for taking off. And that's just what I'll do. I'll take it off, and then I'll write metal. You can't stop me :3

[Skyrim METAL!]

FUS.....RO DA!!!! (Your Fucking Dead!)
VoDarkin!!! (Hey Skeever Ass!)

Brilliant Piece!
Suits the mood of skyrim so brilliantly

Metaljonus responds:

Thanks!

[Music For A Better Tomorrow]

Your lead doesn't match the vocals really...
Given the melody alone suits the mood I'm in, but that is beyond the point here.
Every instrument beat is flawless, but as I stated above your vocals don't exactly sit well with their feel if you catch my drift.

[Song of Storms - Battle Mix]

This piece has gone heavily under-appreciated given it's awesome battle based theme. A very well done piece indeed!

[B7 - Lose The Flowers]

The build-up was a little more lengthy than your usual...but the pick-up at 0:59 changed the mood dramatically and that is what I love about your music. The build, the kick to the face, the hype and that atmosphere.

Once again, you keep amazing me with the tunes.
Just...no more rap or dance pl0x...my ears are still bleeding after a year (/troll-face)
