JackReaver's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[[X] Devastation]

Sweet jesus...

This song prepares men for battle. I vote to adopt this as our war anthem. All in favor?

Xarnor responds:

Someone needs to probably write some lyrics and a few verses or something first, but sure dude that's cool with me haha.

[No Signs of Life (Draft)]

Damn, man.

Despite having read the review below first (I know, I goofed), I seriously found myself thinking there were going to be lyrics as it just seems like that kind of setup.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone was writing some right now. <.< >.>

JoNoGo responds:

Thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed these random tunes i make up in my spare time. If i could only sing i would be able to make somthing worth listening too. I miss the days of being in a band :(

[[SS] Zombie Pixels Unite]

I feel like shooting zombies...

I love this retro sound and it strangely seems to fit with a zombie theme. I was smiling the whole time. Even had you said nothing, I get the feeling I would have been pondering a topdown or sidescrolling 8 bit zombie shooter just from the audio. You did a damn fine job. 10s and 5s for ye.

SilentSpace responds:

Thanks, man! I didn't initially get a zombie vibe from this, however, and initially called it dead pixels. When I realized that dead pixels would be zombie pixels, I knew what this song had to be. :P

[Can't Stop Boppin' (demo)]

I swear You've heard something like this before...

"Gotta say, It was pretty good but a bit short."

Okay, just kidding. While it was pretty good, I just couldn't find myself getting into that much on my first listen through. That didn't detract from the quality of the music...That's just my being jaded about what I loosely label as "club music".

Sadly, most of the clubs and bars around here spam the air with house and trance (and it's not even good). This in turn makes me kind of an asshole when it comes to hearing something similar. I went and listened to it again, this time taking care to note the subtle and obvious difference between the average "club" track and your baby.

It's odd times indeed when an ass like me sits down and listens to something he would normally throw out the window (without listening to, I might add) shouting, "Next." And I gotta say, "It was pretty good...I am hoping to hear it when it's finished. Hell, I'll even listen to bits and pieces to help you out along the way."

Happy Days And Peace (If you want it),

Squarion responds:

I believe it is important to appreciate what music artists/DJs have to offer regardless of the genre. Maybe the House and Trance you've heard before was just extremely repetitive and poorly done. I'm pretty sure there are many artists out there that will make you think otherwise about house and trance.

[Grandpa's Mishaps]

It almost seems too obvious.

Was this, in fact, influenced by Shin Chan? It was very good and well voiced. I would like to hear more. :3

Queen0fHearts responds:

Thank you! I'm really shocked people like the voices... guess I'm too hard on myself. lol

I dunno what Shin chan is, but EyesADrift was kind enough to write the script for me, so maybe?

[Life of a Twader]

What more can I say?

Than this is simply amazing. I have always been a fan of old black and white movies (The ones without sound). You've captured that essence in this piece. A job well done, friend. 10/10 and 5/5.

And one big round of applause from me. :3

MoonlitRaven responds:

merci!
