betrayalisanART's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[- Echo -]

coooool

good song i like the piano, i am a sucker for pianos. but i wouldnt say its ambient...it seems far too structured and planned , you know? but yeah song is good.

[Colors Shifting remix]

pilot, sunset, puppet, blessings.

yeahhhhhhh. this is real nice....i like the vocals too. very dreamy. i really need to strat doing vocals. they add a lot to songs. a lot of good.

ericdrebin responds:

Thanks, although the singing was part of the original song, so I can't take credit. Doing vocals is hard, very hard.

[Not What You Said Before]

hond civi.

i do not think the singing is bad. it kind of reminds me of a grandaddy sort of sound. the highish voice does. maybe even flaming lips. it is good though. i assume it was made with minimal resources and for that i commend you.

ericdrebin responds:

Well, thanks for the compliment, but I do think the singing could be batter (although any comparison to Grandaddy makes me feel better).

[Broke Down, Knocked Up]

our planet is breaking in half ,but...

at the very beginning of this it reminded me of these three things:

vitamin c's song graduation day
a theremin
sun

together it is a magical happiness that i quite frankly loved. it reminds me of so many good things that dont happen enough any more. until now.

ericdrebin responds:

Thanks! This song always makes me think of the joy and beauty that's hiding, just waiting to be unleashed, in the circuitry of all synthesizers.

[Goodbye Horses Jeff Farley rmx]

horse. running off into a cloudy sunset.

dude.....soooooo good. i did a goodbye horses cover as well and it is absolutely dismal compared to this. i like this a lot.

ericdrebin responds:

Well, thanks. I only wish I couldtake more credit for this remix, but most of the cool shit wasn't my doing.

[CCC]

dth-th-th-th

sounds a bit like old richard d. james stuff in the beginning, very glitchy and good...sounds like a good deal of time went in to it...if im wrong, dont tell me...

[Piano loop (Dj Chyrz)]

dDEs,Moine-Des

the piano part kicks ass, wait no no, that doesnt sound right, its too relaxing to be kicking any ass. but what im trying to say is i like it...and i too also get the Sims feel to it...in some parts.

ChYrZ-LeGeNd responds:

thanks cool review

[Arthur Widdleton]

chip chip chip

im not sure if you've ever heard Figurine, but this sounds a lot like it, i like this and i like what its about...or should i say who its about....even though i dont know this man...

ericdrebin responds:

Oh, I know all about Figurine, or James Figurine, or Dntel, or whatever the hell Tamborello chooses to call himself. Thanks for the flattering comparison.
There is no 'REAL' Arthur Widdleton, but the song was originally inspired by a manager that I had at a McDonalds in Seattle who always had crap luck. The only time the store was every robbed (that I know of) was on his shift, or another time when he had to be to the hospital after work, his car battery died (and it was raining). He always had stuff like that happen to him, but he always kept a positive attitude, and that inspired me to make this song.

[1 2 3 4 5 [hard remix]]

son of a bitch

what the fuck is wrong with people! why does music have to be PRETTY and CLEAN...the lyrics to this remind me of something Trent Reznor-esque..and ive listened to this a couple times now and im realizing more and more that these other people that reviewed, no offense, dont seem to notice original good music when the hear it....its too noisy? good! its too garbled together? fucking perfect! haha

ericdrebin responds:

Yeah, I was listening to too much NIN back then (totally love 'Ghosts', by the way), and I'm sure that leaked into my song writing. I like this song, and chose to submit it to Newgrounds, because it's so strange, but yet has an accessable pop-song style structure, so that it could still be used in a flash or whatever.

[Organic]

no sir, you're mistaken

i think it actually just cleared up the problem i had with MY system. i think i had too much stupid boring music fucking it all up, but now its workin a little better. thanks.

ericdrebin responds:

The only joke I can think up is:
Maybe your computer had the T(-Pain) Virus.
...but that's a dumb joke.
