InvasiveInsomniac's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[NGHH - Obii-O vs MickeyMao]

Obii-O

My vote's to Obii. He was in time on the beat.

[-= Infernal =-]

They desperately need a Drumstep Genre in the AP

Good Drumstep shouldn't be left in the Drum N Bass Genre for no one to know about.

Once again, sick tune, sick producer behind it.

TheBiocide responds:

Thanks a lot, man! And I certainly wouldn't mind a Drumstep section... Or an Electro House one. And to be fair, this song does have traditional DnB drum loops as well as Drumstep ones. So it's more like a hybrid to me ;) Really, I don't care what you call it, I'm just glad you enjoyed it, my friend!

[-=Armadillo=-]

Fuck generic Dubstep

This is the shit right here, this is true Dubstep. The new shit that people release, new ideas and new sounds. God damn, this is nice. You just got added to my favourites my friend.

TheBiocide responds:

Awesome review, dude. I really appreciate that! Hope to hear more from you on my later projects, man! :D

[NGHH - Slap vs Wyze]

It was a close call.

But I'm givin' my vote to Wyze.

In my opinion, Slap had better flow, but Wyze's punches were a lot harder.

However, SlapHappy had me chuckling through most of his verses. If SlapHappy changed up his voice and put a bit more aggressiveness and clarity in his voice, he would have won it.

Props boys.

[NGHH - Fat Beats vs HeavyUrb]

Basically what my opponent said.

This was sloppy. But to be honest, that all comes down to your skill. But as for this, I believe that Fat Beats won this. His flow was better. Which isn't saying he was good, cus to be honest, neither of them were.

[Psychiatrist's Hour (instr.)]

At first

I was gonna give you an 8, it sounded a little odd for my tastes.. then once the bells came in and the piano, I was like "Ahhhh there's the Rama I know!".

Top beat, love the bass, very slick.

Good job Rama!

Crueltool responds:

Agree with you... For me - very simple that time. Next will be much better i promise))))
Thanks man!

[Timebox Ceremony (instr.)]

This is what music is for

To portray emotion, feeling.. to paint a picture. This beat represents the nightlife; the kids walking the street at in the morning, sprayin' their graf tags and moving in silence.

Once again Rama, you dropped it clean. Beautiful beat.

Crueltool responds:

Yes dude! Some special graffity music. This is how i'm feeling it))
Thanks)

[Bulletproof Reputation (instr)]

Smooth.

This is one smooth beat, very gangster, very West Coast... I'm loving it. Something I can chill to.

Rama, you're just too good.

Have you put your name down to create battle beats for the Newgrounds Hip-Hop Competition? If not, you should.

Crueltool responds:

Thanks man. I don't mind to put my name in battle tracks, BUT HOW ? I just don't know what to do. Seems i stupid a little)))))

[BCT Winter Battles Hype Track]

Permission?

When you asked Rama for this song, he clearly stated that you weren't allowed to use it as it was for commercial use (for money) only. Meaning that you would have to buy the beat before you were allowed to use it.

Did you end up buying this beat?

Now, as for your rapping. Yes, this track has a wicked beat, thanks to Rama. Your timing is fairly spot on, and your flow is pretty clean.

However, this track is weak. If I was in this competition, I'd laugh if I was up against you to be honest. You really need to work on how hard your punches are. Listening to this made me feel like I was being insulted by a 14 year old, with insults no stronger than;

"Your boring and you suck
And you're not slightly entertaining"

and; "stay outta my way or forever get dissed".

Seriously, as a rapper, what do I care if I forever get dissed? Bring out those hard punches, make these guys scared of their future battles against you.

Yes, the lyrics were quite clever. But they just didn't have that much needed "hype" in a "hype track". I understand you were sick, and I honestly can't wait to see what you bring to the scene.

As for mixing, a little more low end in your voice please.

And my last bit of constructive criticism is; please for the love of Hip-Hop, don't do that gay voice again, especially in your outro of this song.

Overall, nice track, nice spit. Tweak what I've told you to, and you'll go far in this competition.

Keep it up BCT, nice to see you on the scene.

BummerCityTown responds:

Thanks man! It helps me a lot to hear what I need to improve. You can tell by looking at my older tracks in comparison to my newer ones. :)

I had already upoaded this by the time Rama responded, I was super bored from being stuck in the house for the last few days, and pretty impatient. I sent him a PM saying I'd purchase the beat, He said he was actually fine with me using it.

Lol and the gay voice is pretty funny, IMO. Im not trying to be some hard gangster hip hop guy. You know? Just wanna be me. Maybe make some people laugh.

Thanks again man,
Bummer

[Asian Learner (instrumental)]

Hot Damn!

This beat is so chill, and the vocal sample you've added in on every bar makes it so much better. and I love the fact that the zither sounds so raw, like you can hear every twang and pluck. Man, every time I hear a beat of yours I just want to spit on it straight away haha!

Top notch man, and just like all your beats..
10/10
5/5

...and this one's going in my fav's. ;)

Crueltool responds:

experience not wasted. Thanks dude))
