Cyberdevil's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cyber Junk - Boost]

That percussion really kicks this one up a bit. :) It's almost like a traditional marching type mixed in with DNB or similar, genres merge. Another good one.

[Cyber Junk - Nightride]

Could definitely ride through the night with this one. :) Not bad.

-cd-

[Cyber Junk - Jurney]

A slower but longer build with this one... not all as foreboding, maybe because it starts with anticipation right away without taking those incremental steps, but I really like this vibe...

-cd-

[Cyber Junk - Atmos]

Really cool how the beat starts building something about halfway in, and wooooah the hype when it does! It starts off simple but moves into a Cyberpunk-like kind of place which is... really pretty impressive. Love that build!!! Just imagine if it kept going after it...

-cd-

[Cyber Junk - Krinkle]

It's got a nice Christmas kind of feeling like this one. :) Appreciate the varied percussion, the glistening sounds and just upbeat vibe of it all. Feelgood music. Also feels like it's 'almost' orchestral, just a couple more layers away from the ultimate richness.

[From Me to You (Sybol's Lo-Fi Flip)]

So dope. Lofi but so vibrant with the piano, and both melodic and appreciatively unpredictable with those chops. Variation just right. Sound tone maybe a little flat somehow but maybe that's the tape effect? Chopped up that way... wonder how much/if any work I've heard here might've been made like that. Sounds like a fun way to do it.

[Eyes Peeled]

That wavy synth at the start has me thinking of Night of the Living Dead. :) Or Gorillaz M1A1... which coincidentally was heavily inspired by Night of the Living Dead. XD

It really changes after that though, becomes all the more orchestral, while still retaining that iconic foundation...

The sound design's impressive, the clarity's impressive, the atmosphere keeps building... gonna be pretty amazing to hear this in the series! So vibrant. So clear. and indeed: so eerie.

ChordC responds:

Both are great songs :D, thank you for the detailed review :).

Just another piece that I tried to make as interesting as possible, thanks for coming here ;)

[~NK~ "Nothing Less" wip]

Legit banger in the making here! So far sounds great.

[Star Facility]

Felt like the vocals were a bit far back in the mix at first, but maybe it just takes some zoning in to those particular tones at first, by the end of this it was sounding just perfect... getting some Daft Punk vibes, though with a bit more melancholy/monotone/cynical maybe tone. Matches the description well... I like the vibe but I do wish it was a little brighter somehow. XD Feels like the music is. Message not always as much. Or sometimes it seems to be. Sometimes no... that said my own lyrics are way more depressing. Man. What am I complaining about.

We do see reward though, even if it's all in the small things, the interactions we have with people, the little glimpses of appreciation and betterment we find along the way... on our way out to the quay. To the cosmos. Lift away. Drift away. Better place. Up in space. In escapes. Sometimes: it's all the music...

JamesHeart responds:

Thank you ^^ was going for a more old lofi vibe so i didnt worry to much about the mix.. maybe i should pull the vocals forward a bit and maybe clean them a bit

Melancholy is my specialty and the message is a reminder that we still have to do our best to be the best ... maybe not for the currant world but a future dream that might not even be ours...

Cyber you always have the right words thank for this <3

[Time For Everything and Nothing]

Funky, grungy, harmonious, jazzy, a lot of a lot of things with this one... bits of it give me some real David Bowie vibes. Almost a little Ska too. Love the mixture.
