JohnSercu's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[-Orr- 4 Brave Champions [FULL]]

to good for words

THAT is really great my friend.... How do you get the sound so perfect??? Are that live instruments or is that just programmed stuff??? If it is live music: then you're a great composer... If it's is programmed: then you are a great composer AND a great programmer. Anyhow you must be some kind of genius. Respect friend... 5/5 10/10

They're not live (I wish they were!), I used the software samples Easy West Quantum Leap Symphonic Orchestra for the sound. Thanks for the review!

[Battle of Supremacy]

nice

Me myself wouldn't call this a classical song too. Wich genre it belongs to I couldn't tell cause I'm already to old to know the difference between all those new genres made up the past 2 decades. ANyhow I do think it's a nice song. I like how the strings drop out after 45 secs and come back after 1min 03 secs. Nice rythm and nice audio quality... Keep up the good works,

With friendly regards,

John

dear JohnSercu,

yeah i also got confusions on genres of songs especially my creations. i just put this song in this genre since all my instruments here are under Film Scoring song kits. I also like the string you've noticed! Thanks for your time!

a great day to you! :)

[Classical piece? beginning?]

not bad

Not bad although it lasts ofcourse only 17 seconds and it sounds a bit simular to one or another Ave Maria from Beethoven or bach :D (I always switch those 2 composers). Anyway I felt like giving an 8 for it. Hope you're once able to make a complete song of it :o)

With friendly regards,

John

[Up(er)beat Neoclassical]

really great

This is really good. The classical song you made after this I gave an 8 but this really disserves a 10. Only sad thing is that it only lasts 1min40sec. You should expand it to a complete song. You are really gifted for your age. The drums you've added are splendid. Also the sound of the piano is very realistic. I wish I could get it as good.
Anyway I'm only here since like 5 days but this is with no doubt the best piece of music I came across so far. Keep on doing what you do.

With friendly regards,

John

[ShortSadLoop]

Not bad

Hi my friend
The piano tune sounds really nice. Congrats. What the strings concerns.... Maybe it would be much nicer if you just kept the strings play single notes (like only the lead violin) instead of chords That way the simplicity of the tune would underline the somberness or sadness you want to express with it. Then I would give it a 10 :o)

Keep up the good work.

With friendly regards,

John

[Master of Midnight [DarkSwarm]]

good job

Very nice. Feel like wanting to party when I listen to this. I only wish the bass-drum (beat) was a bit louder. Then I would have given it a 10

Keep up the good work.

With friendly regards,

John Sercu
