Cyberdevil's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[The zone]

Well this was different. :)

Feels like I'm up in the hills of Dragon Ball, rolling on a log towards a cabin, it's both a little Video-Gamey and reminiscent of the synth and martial arts heavy eighties. For a while it seems like something you could hear in a Ghostbusters type flick, then the Kung Fu Fighting kinda jingle kicks in.

Catchy, fun, atmospheric too with the longer notes in the background, and the drums are funky.

Good funky fun with an olskool China kinda vibe!

[[Hyperpop] you won't know.]

A bit much clipping on the vocals y'all, and loudness overall! Otherwise this was hypnotic in the best possible way. Love the sound. Love the build and breaks and everything about it, it moves in fresh and unpredictable ways, but always melodic.

Yet the clipping gets in the way of the experience for me... I wonder if it's intentional. Feels like vocals might've just not been recorded with the ideal kind of equipment?

Musically this is amazing. The vocals are on point melodically too, and the pacing's great, but the clipping...

Thanks for the review! I literally just went to this song's page an hour ago, and then an hour later here's your review. I think this song is the worst thing I've ever done, but I don't want to delete it because some people like it, lol. I've never been able to record quality vocals as I'm not good at it, so most of my songs are instrumentals

[guiding star]

This was so vibrant, so kind, so rich and soothing...

I could imagine hearing this in a game too. Feels like the perfect type of sound for something like... well I don't know. Initially it felt like an RPG kind of tune, but then it goes and shifts and totally transcends the kind of music I thought it'd be. It both has that VG kind of vibe and something beyond it...

Feels wholesome either way! Right on with the title.

[EBIMAYO - GOODWORLD (EXT4NT Remix)]

The shifts this one goes through! Almost has a Mortal Kombat-kind of vibe going on for a while... very diverse, rich and rabit in the best possible way. The production quality's proper, the energy's constant - but never monotone, it moves in a refreshingly unpredictable and rich way.

What a banger! So good. Breaks down in a great way towards the end too.

-cd-

[Waste Of Breath - Buried]

Love the energy! And the Blink 182/Sum 41 type vibes I'm so strongly getting from this. It takes me back! It feels new too. It's a banger from start to finish.

The vocals are great and the instrumentation too, though drums in particular feel a bit far back and flat. I wouldn't mind a bit more elaborate lyrics too. :)

Keep up the great work y'all! This is fantastic. Feels like the kind of quality I'd hear at a real show or radio. It's a bit unreal you can stumble upon something like this on NG too these days...

-cd-

[On a Breather]

I love how human this is, how the beat slows down occasionally, how everything goes together, as if it's an actual band jam... the vibe's smooth, jazzy and upbeat, but also a liiittle elevator-music-ey, though maybe that's a point? A breather. A break. A move between levels of sorts.

Killer bass too when you notice it...

Love the groove. Production quality's great too. Simple but very solid tune.

-cd-

[Darkman (2022)]

2022 hmm, I wonder what the original version was like...

I both enjoy this and... can't really vibe to it too well. The beat's mechanic, but appreciably swingy, the guitar's rough and awesome but kinda chaotic too.

I can see this working well with a particular purpose, as a theme song or similar. As is... the sound's a little rough and repetitive.

A little richer production and variation with for example the beat this'd be a treat y'all! Not bad.

-cd-

[Thick-it]

Such a rich mix with this one, and the titillating saw-like synth, it hits some special frequencies it seems, they both bounce and sizzle around my headphones... the production's great, and the music's both ambient and powerful. It transitions seamlessly...

Feels futuristic. I could see this in some Blade Runner type movie too, robotic and new, and that subtle beat in the background too... the instrumentation's great.

Really dope mix.

-cd-

CaperCube responds:

I really appreciate this dude! I've been on a slow journey to figure out how to mix well, so this is really nice to hear

[DJ Supersaw - Double cheese burger]

Bright, upbeat, fun and fluent... this one was fun too.

And it has something to do with a cheeseburger so hmm... that for sure enhances the effect and implications of it all too. :) Ends a bit abruptly but... good vibes.

-cd-

[need to be loved (feat. mifir4ik)]

I don't understand what's being said at all but hell yeah I can vibe to it. :) Feels like something straight out of the Paranoia Agent soundtrack, which is a compliment of the highest order, the vibe's special, both vocals and instrumental...

I like how both vocals and instruments sometimes 'trip up' a bit as they trail off too, adds a unique flare to it all.

A little much autotone though with Mifi (at least I assume she's Mifi)... never been a huge fan of that, but overall this is bangin'. It's like Eurobeat and Dubstep fused together, two styles I did not expect to see together...

Also that end, I am... what now?! XD I don't get it at all but... that was new too!

A lot of creative things going on with this one. Dope work.
