Cyberdevil's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Mannish Boy (riff)]

It actually does loop somewhat. :) Classic.

-cd-

[Your Hand In Mine]

Almost like house music but in the chuptune style. :) Not bad...

-cd-

8BitAndChill responds:

Thanks! I do love me some house music.

[Shadows]

I like the fast bits, and the melody overall, but shadows hmm... not sure I'm feeling the theme!

Feels like suitable VG music though. Ambient but also a bit more ferocious/battle mode/runner/brawler like.

-cd-

8BitAndChill responds:

This one was by request! I tried to blend a spooky, shadowy vibe with chiptune. Listened to some old Castlevania beforehand ~

[Snowfall]

Getting in the holiday spirit for sure with this one, and it just so happens the snow really is falling outside too! :D Happy Belated Holidays again! The warm harmonic little bit around 1:10 in particular was really nice btw.

-cd-

8BitAndChill responds:

I appreciate it! Happy belated holidays!

[Mountain]

Hmm don't really get the muddled impression with this, wonder if it's the higher notes or the more limited selection somehow... really works well here. Clearly chiptune too. Love the melody. Love the solo at the end - for a moment there it almost seemed bagpipe-like. XD Chill, optimistic and a great kind of melodic. Very nice.

-cd-

8BitAndChill responds:

I use a low-bass/high-pass (i.e. lo-fi) filter on a lot of this music to give it that lo-fi vibe. It does mess up the clarity at times.

[It's Ok]

Reassuring. :) Intent does come across. Again I love the vibe, though a little muddled tone...

It's gonna get better for sure! Let's make 2021 that year it all turns around now!

-cd-

8BitAndChill responds:

Here here! 🥂

[Fields]

Gotta love that jazzy vibe. Was expecting a bit more of the jazzy when it started out but it moves onto a bit more melodic/pattern-based ambiance it seems...

Wonder if the tone's maybe a little too muddled somehow? Like the ambiance could come out a bit more with clarity? But good vibes.

-cd-

8BitAndChill responds:

Ah you're right, a little less filtering may have made this one sound better. I will definitely keep that in mind.

[Americano]

Jazzy, classy, slow and relaxing... it works! Perfect elevator or lounge music for sure. Nice one.

If anything to improve maybe just depth/clarity. Sound feels soft but a little boxed in.

-cd-

[American]

So catchy. :) Bit high on the loudness but great stuff. Love the vibe.

-cd-

[F-o-D]

An official F-o-D anthem? :) It's definitely got the right kind of weirdness, and the right kind of build, a consistent flow, tenacious background synth and kick that cartwheels in and starts bringing up expectations... one final stretch of shimmering stalactite-like wonder too, what a strange but awesome sidetrack that bit was. Fades out a bit fast but almost/sort of loops...

I could vibe to this for some time. If it is an anthem: feels suitable. Though feels like it could also be just not all too seriously titled? Good stuff either way!

-cd-

Father-of-Death responds:

Maybe not my anthem lol but I feel like lately I've been needing to represent myself better. I've been having trouble relating myself to my online stuff. I always feel like I don't know who the fuck I even am. I gotta find myself and get motivation to learn more about music, because right now I feel like I could learn so much more than I know now. I keep telling myself to get my life together and feel like I'm not going anywhere. Life has a way of kicking you down a lot and I'm getting tired of it. So hopefully I can take hold and realize the good things I have done in my life and try my best not to beat myself up over dumb ass shit.
