Cyberdevil's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Slime-Fighter]

When the wavy synth kicks in this starts going places. :D Not bad. Feels a little Asian with the latter half in particular, happy/upbeat bits. Sounds just right for a mod, though maybe not as entrancing listening material outside, no consistent melody/thing that really reels you in.

[whatever]

Started out with Nujabes-like lo-fi jazzy hiphop vibes... but then really took a twist for something more electronic/futuristic/different. I like the punchy beats. I like the upbeat pace and the frequent tempo changes and hops. It's fun listening, with an appreciable break mid-way through, and a really soft second part...

Good stuff man. Only thing that seems a little lacking is: title. :P And Congrats on the FP!!!

[Nol's Therapy Mansion - Episode Two]

A real eye-opener this one! :P The Dutch bit really came out of nowhere, nice surprise with additional voices here, though maybe a little high volume compared to the rest? Maybe that was intended though. Just seems to overtake the story a bit when it comes on.

Hysis was a real highlight too, and the whole bar scene... you paint it up nicely. I loved the Wonderlust and his circus part too. All parts really but that's a favorite. Wonder if all these elements will remain a part of it all and progress the story, or get lost along the way... really am starting to immerse myself with this one.

Looking forward to the third!

[Nol's Therapy Mansion - Episode One]

It starts well! Wasn't sure it'd really reel me in at first, but it did after all! Feels like there's a little narrative clutter with the stutter sometimes, but overall it flows well, feels authentic, when the sound effects start - or at least when I first really noticed them, with the pelting rain and car tires screeching... that really adds a lot to the atmosphere. Solid production! Good volume/balance too.

As for the story I suppose it'll just get better from here on out. :) Looking forward to seeing where it all leads, and what those collaborative story-writing efforts garner. If you need any additional vocal cameos later on that mine might contribute to feel free to reach out.

Awesome initiative with this; refreshing with a more story-based podcast too. think it might actually be the first one of that type that I listen to.

[LABS]

Beautiful. :) Feels like the first aaaaa faded a bit abruptly, and maybe the second bit could've trailed on longer too, but the bits that matter are magical... appreciable orchestral beat towards the end as well. Would be cool to see this used for some majestic animation.

yagru responds:

i'm hoping someone wants to use it in a movie or game myself!!! thanks for the review :D

[Vanilla - Visions (ThePal Remix)]

Got some ASMR-like stuff going on with the keyboard-like clickery in the background for the first bit... really smooth ambience overall, shifts nicely, doesn't always move the way you expect it to. I love the shift around 1:45 in particular. So radiant. Tune that soothes and moves your mind...

ThePal responds:

music has the power to make you 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭, escape from reality and just not care about anything else for a few minutes, and I strive to make those minutes a journey people won't forget. ✨

reviews like these are the best motivational boost I can get!
thank you so much for the kind words, I'll continue to improve and make more music in the future, so check in once in a while. 👌

[Botched Break]

So fluent and freeing this one. :) Love the vibe.

[-Adventure Booze- (Master mix!)]

It does sound like adventure! :D Feels like it somewhat loses a thread somewhere along the way though, starts so great and energetic but after a polished intro it all gets a little maybe too crazy, with multiple melodies that fight for focus... for a bit. The breaks were nice though. The mood's definitely uplifting. It seems long and ambitious. Just a little too messy for me for a large part of it; maybe a little sharp a main instrumental too, seems to take over/drown out the beat a bit.

[Turing Machine]

This was awesome. Imagine a full album like this hmm..

-cd-

Jabun responds:

Thanks so much CD! Each track on the album is quite different with this being probably the least chill one :) Only a month left to wait until all is revealed!

[Killer RAT - Cold And Lovely]

Heavy stuff. :) I love that intro, love the riffs, appreciate the rhyme structure of the lyrics too, but feel like length-wise structure doesn't always match, some words get stretched out in lack of syllables, rhythmically not always perfect, a little low voice during the bridge/third verse, and voice overall a little strained but...

Overall these are getting pretty good. Dark

guyfromKillerRAT responds:

yes I wanted it all to rhyme except for few lines. I didn't practice this song before singing it. Just sang each part in a different take and stitched it all together
