Cyberdevil's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Tower]

Really digging the energy on this one. So fast-paced but... calmn, somehow. Wouldn't be as awesome without the Ding though. Special sound, and samples as to which I'm curious of the origins ... really fun, ferocious, laid-back kind of track.

Got the vocal samples from a documentary called "The Killing of America," a doc about social issues in the US that have evolved in recent decades. It includes stories of serial killers, race riots, and assassinations. It's some pretty dark material. Had to ignore a lurch in my stomach when I was chopping up the audio.

The style of drum and bass is called liquid which evolved about two decades ago. It includes influences from jazz, funk, and blues. There's alot of drum and bass out there that carries a laid back vibe with those up tempo break beats. Look up Bachelors of Science on Pandora, a friend recommended that channel to me a long time ago. Good vibes CyberDev :)

[F-777 - Medusa]

Another awesome track! Great energy, pace; plenty of variation. Pleasure to listen to.

[F-777 - Dubstepah]

Seems you do do dubstep pretty well! Though no matter how much it switches around there's still that jump; rhythm in the background. Moves around great, but that part never really lets go.

F-777 responds:

That's actually an amazing point. O.o.
Ima note that for the future. Man you pinned it.

Thanks for the awesome review and listening btw!!

[Shake]

Also good, though also one of those that just keeps going! It's like a practice session more than a full song, even if the guitarplay's just: awesome. Do you have any work with vocals? Any thoughts on collabing with a vocalist? Would be really cool.

guyfromKillerRAT responds:

Actually, collabing with a vocalist doesn't sound too bad. I just don't know what the lyrics could be, I'm not really that kinda guy who adds lyrics to their songs.

[Train]

You really know how to play! Great groove, but like a train it just goes on, and goes on... no brakes, no pauses... feels like some variation's required for perfection. But the music's great.

-cd-

guyfromKillerRAT responds:

That's why I named it Train!

[F-777 - Life Is Still Awesome]

Oh hey there really is a new album! Considering the date I was a bit skeptic... but this is great. Beautiful. Awesome. Just packed with energy. Imagine waking up to this every day... no better way to really get started; going like crazy.

-cd-

[The Dreaded Phony Horse Gag (2011)]

Really like the energy in this one!! Though the end, uh, yeah.. not sure about that part! Props for keeping creative. You really are impressive with the music though. So smooth melodies. Nice work.

Bertn1991 responds:

The song was meant to be silly, what with all those barnyard sound effects, but I like how it turned out, and I'm happy that you do as well. Thank you very much, sir ^.^

[Within]

What about everything else in the song, though? Part of a band? It sounds great, just hope it's all your work... the beginning had me thinking of old Michael Jackson tracks, but it turns into... something else after a while... something familiar. Really nice vibe. Classic. That solo too! I'm impressed! If only the background music shifted a bit along the way it'd be just perfect.

-cd-

guyfromKillerRAT responds:

Well, not really part of a BAND, more like my cousin did the rest. XD

[Evaluation License]

For a first submission this is pretty impressive! The style reminds of the 'Casino Lights' too. Similar style, though different rhythm; notes... it's similar but this has a more RPG-like style to it. Adventure music. I like it.

-cd-

[Casino Lights]

I really like the ambience here, and the crystal-like tone... feels like the bass is a bit high on the loudness (especially in contrast to the other) but overall this sounds great. Smooth tune!
