Cyberdevil's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cubix Skyland]

The voices that kicked in around 2 minutes were a bit unexpected, and though not very notible they somehow clash with the otherwise ambient feel of the track. I appreciate the variation but how aboaut an additional layer of instrumentality instead, maybe strings? Sounds good overall, nice and smooth!

geniebmusic responds:

Thank you for listening and commenting! I'm glad you find the track good overall.

That's interesting what you said about the voices around the 2 minute mark. Those additional voices are actually synth strings. So you think I should go with a more realistic string sound? If you like, you can PM me and tell me what you think.

Either way, thank you so much! I will work harder!

[(8-bit) The Machine]

Hmm, I was going to pop up the old version and compare them, but it's gone! :O This sounds good though, much more complete than the previous one at the end, even though it doesn't seem longer? The phasing out works well, and I like the dreamy intersection as it closes in on a minute. The sound is still a bit sharp at the start, but it sounds good, overall fuller than it did before. Keep it going!

NoStereo responds:

Oh sorry I pulled the other one. Dx

It's only a small bit longer than the wip. I decided to keep it fairly short.

Thanks for the review again cyber!

[Over]

This sounds almost like dubstep at times. Plenty of variation, plenty of intensity, plenty of industrialism and a steady beat in the background that somehow makes me think of Daft Punk. Wonder where the similarity lies though. I like the build-up towards the end especially. It sounds good!

PYROMANCERband responds:

Thanks a lot man! Daft Punk is (of course) one of my favorites so there's no stopping them from creeping in on the finer ends of production time. Good call!

[Armed With Dental Drills]

I really like the beat in this, once it kicks in. The shakers get a bit monotone but everything else has a nice dark fluency to it. I can't really find the link between this and dentists, which I have a particular phobia for, it's actually a nice and ambient track. Simple melody, smooth sound. Great listening!

-cd-

ScottJacob responds:

Thanks man, glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, the title is a weird one. Basically i had in mind aliens landing andd invading earth armed with dental drills. Which i too have a massive phobia of the dentist office.

[Echo Test 1]

Sounds like that device didn't manage to capture this as well as the other recording. Still good guitar play, though!

-cd-

BlackAngel1384 responds:

Again, thank you! yea, one was with some serious distortion and the other was pretty much clean. If i can get myself some good recording stuff i will see about other players and some good recording. I am just a hobby player. =)

[Echo Test 2]

Considering this was recorded on a phone, it really doesn't sound that bad (quality-wise). The rhythm itself is steady and catchy, and only starts skipping a bit around the end. Would be great to hear this with a few layers or other instruments. Nice work!

-cd-

BlackAngel1384 responds:

Appreciate it! If I can find some other people to play with I will def get some serious stuff kicking, but i was just messing around with some power chords and whatnot and kinda dug the way this sounded. Thanks again =)

[The Ultimate DooM intro Remake]

Nice work! It's exactly a short introduction like this that I was looking for. It's got that nice doomy/spooky tone to it as well. Good work!
