Cyberdevil's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Astral Aura - Cadet]

This is a really smooth tune, smooth and length, ambient and varied... the kind of track I could have playing in the background all day. I like the icy scream towards the middle/end, intense even though it doesn't disturb the overall flow at all. Can't think of what you could improve, just keep up the good work!

[Chaos-X]

So I'm finally getting around to reviewing this! As I mentioned earlier, it's a great track, I love how it phases in, the beat kicks in, the strings intensify, the pace shifts, something builds up and it just keeps shifting, better and better. I'm not sure I like how the original 'jumpy strings' play through even the more sinister part in the middle of the track, but after that there's a much-refreshing break and a pretty tense build-up. I'd say the latter part of the track's my favorite part, much more ambient, yet with a density of tension. Really nice groove, keep it going!

[Metal Madness]

Woah, you do all styles! This was a cutting piece of audio, I felt the guitar was overly sharp at the start but you get used to it quickly, and it doesn't seem to clip at all anyway. Great recording quality. The theme reminds me a bit of Doom, it's like a mixture of the Bobby Prince style of soundtracking and something a tad bit more spooky, I can see this working perfectly for all types of battle scenes, or any where there's tension, a dark, drear underworld waiting to crawl out into the city and take over. Awesome work on the guitar too!

I like this tune, as you say it's light, playful and dreamy. The strings are the best part, soft yet fast-paced so despite the ambiance it doesn't get dull. Seems like a perfect tune for any type of adventure game or the like, it's like something from the past too, makes me think of the renaissance somehow. Keep up the good work!

[loop of death]

This is pretty cool, has a somewhat grungy, heavy undertone. Though as for a loop, it would be much better without that space at the end of it! Keep it going!

[Synthetic Wasteland]

Nice melody, and I like how that bongo-like beat trips in every once in a while to liven up the mood a bit. Plenty of variation embedded within the ambiance too. Nice work!

K-Pone responds:

Those bongos are actually toms. Thanks for the review!

[The Cyber Devil]

Thank you mounds for this magnificently masterful musical mix! I love the powerful orchestral tones, the somewhat hiphoppish beat in the background and how it just keeps continually building up with varied audial interference. It's a pompous piece, great sound quality, and no sharp sound either so it's easy to raise the volume and experience a new level of grandeur. Reminds me a bit of the Inception soundtrack btw, which is a favorite so that's just perfect. :)

Somehow I associate 'battle tracks' with rap, but maybe that spans different genres? I can picture this more in a movie than as a background beat, though it did inspire me to write a verse, so I'm hoping a spin-off collaboration on this might be possible in the future (?)! Thanks again; Merry Christmas to you too!

[The Forest Mushrooms RMX]

Nice melody! I think the hithat is a bit much, but apart from that it sounds great, melodic and heavy. Keep it going! Like the drum solo at the end especially.

Thanks, and now it's working ^^
Very thanks Cyberdevil :D

[Pkmn2's Voice Demo 2013]

Haha, not bad at all! The accent doesn't bother, apart from maybe that last voice that sounded more American or Italian. Sound quality is good though, and this was an entertaining listen too. Wonder if the length is intentionally the same as a song or if that's just how it turned out? Good luck with your voice acting career!

-cd-

Pienkaito responds:

The length actually did partially a role. Nobody likes to listen someone talking for very long, so I tried to keep it simple.

Thanks for the feedback.

[The Techno Trio]

This is one loooong track! Takes a while for the rhythm to really bring me in, but when the VG-style influences start appearing it's great, energetic and melodious. The shifts are impossible to notice too, everythings smoothly pieced together, but no doubt it bids for a lot of variation. Nice initiative!
